It was afterwards discovered that it was; caused by several ladies; they- were trying to undress one of their number. num-ber. Whenever a student Is caught running run-ning up and down ,the halls or the stairs he is severely reprimanded. Why should these teachers set an example ex-ample of the kind that they did, when students who are forming their habits of life, are severely reprimanded?! This is the question asked by nearly every student in the building. Wby should a teacher be allowed the privilege privil-ege of causing a disturbance whenever they feel so Inclined? 1 would venture to say that any student in the building build-ing who was caught by any one of these said teachers, running around yelling and screaming in any one room or In any part of the building, would I be "bailed out" by Said teachers who set the example for their students to follow..

The remarks were . directed di-rected at the question of a boy or girl going on to school and college where they want to get a higher education. He said that the eighth grade diploma diplo-ma was a good stopping off place, that the (High School diploma was a good stopping off place, but that the boy or girl who goes on to college will be i that much better equipped for the battle bat-tle called llfe, Altogether the talk was an exceptionally excep-tionally good oneand was enjoyed by every student In the hall. (Some of them missed it too bad really it was good and enjoyable.) Kvery student j of the High joins 1n presenting the pro- fessor with a standing invitation to visit with us at any time and especially especial-ly to talk to us at all times when it is possible. i I Another place of great interest in the Bingham High School Is the chemistry chem-istry department. Here between the hours of J0:30 and 12 a. m.. one may see the students Investigating the sciences of chemistry. They perform experiments of all sorts from the dis-. tilling of water to the tests for minerals miner-als in the different ores. All sorts of chemicals are used Jn these experiments. experi-ments. They can take a poisonous I water and in a matter of hours they i will have pure water. .Professor P. S. .Martbakis, M. S., pre sides over this class, also teaching the FroHh algebra, which he claims is the j hardest work that he has to perform. I And a FreKhman's brain is rather hard to perpetrate. He says that Rome of the students do not take Algebra, but I are only exposed to it, as the germs of knowledge cannot live in a perfect . vacuum. The sclentiHts claim that there Is not such a thing as a perfect vacuum. But this has been proven not i to be true, as several of the Freshmen I have a perfect vacuum where they, j should have brains. . j I Mr. Southwick started the work on j I his High 'School operetta Monday.

The writer has been requested by the chairman of the Junior Prom, which comes off tonight, to announce I that the invitations that were sent to j the head of the house include all members of the family.
