OUR NEW HOME Our dreams of a beautiful school. " which -we had so fendrr anticipated. June finally nialerlalUed. For the past four weeks we haw been enjoy ing our lovely new school. l)o we appreciate It? I shall attempt to give you the answer. ' We are a group of ambitious stu dents who are very hard pressed for ' time. The evtensrre traveling re quired In going from one building to 1 another, most uncomfortably bur- ' drned wMh books, did not prove to be a time-saving device. These dally 'excursions through the deep snow, ' with the biting wind against our r faces taught lis to really appreciate f our high school building. - 1 ''Now that our school Is furnished ,' wh new equipment It Is our duty to keep It looking Its best. We. the Student Body, will do our part to- ' ward tills as we nan done In other ' like situations. The students of La Grande High express sincere gratitude for the ben- ' eflts derived from this new school ' building. Sophia OWlliuber. . Mr. King's class in German had a treat last week when he showed them some ploturea that he took In Sur ' . ope this summer. Tho new opaque projector was used.

LARGE GLASS V USED BY CLASS It was In the event of the coming of Halley't comet In July, 1910. sUua a tolescope was purchased by s group of local men greatly interested In science. Theso men were T. J. Scrog glns. H. B. Ocolldgc. H. P. Oliver, I, R. Snook, and O. M.i Humphreys. One early morning In July, 23 years ago, found this group of men eagerly searching skies and the reward came soon when they ware the first In the northwest to Mgttt this spectacle which comes only every 76 years. Thoy spent many hours In close ob servation. ' r When the United States entered the World war a call was Issued ap pealing to the people to offer their telescopes and binoculars, etc. to the government lor service. This group, willing that their telescope should be of good vise, sent It to headquar ters and it saw service for about two years, part of this time having been on the high seas. At another time while the group was observing for Its own pleasure. It saw a strange spectacle In. the western aky and found later It had been an eclipse of one of Jupiter's moons. A last and very Important service the scope baa rendered Is Its use by the Science department of the lav Orande High school. It has been used by science classes to observe constellations lor several years. Larry last week about 160 students i men the General Science classes had the opportunity of seeing the moon. Sat urn. Vega, Capella and the double star In the handle of the dipper. The observation was supervised by Mr. Wight. Miss Osborne and Mr. Tay lor, Instructors In the Science de partment. The students of L. H. 8, wish to express their sincere appreciation, to the ownera for the opportunity or having access to this instrument.
