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.

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.

Last Tuesday the German class. In
structed by Mr. King, met to eee

wore shown on Ahe opaque projector.
With this machine It Is possible to
flash on the screen pictures thought
to be of interest by students, and
illustrations from books and maga

1 Films obtained from the University
of Oregon are run off on the film

Office
rFire Prevention Week. Is being ob
served In all the schools from October
T to October 14. Special assemblies
are being called for the purpose o(
hearing Mr. Lindsay, chief of the La

first hand information pertaining to
fire prevention and the tremendous
loss in life and property suffered
each year through carelessness.
Principals and teachers are taking
advantage of the opportunity to teach
safety in fire drills, which tend to
prevent accidents in case of fire. Fire
drills, unless properly organized and
executed. In many cases are more
dangerous than fires. This Is a case
where the schools are endeavoring to
teach safety first in safety first.

FALK'S
general science classes saw strips en
titled Trip to the Moon, Splendors
of the Sky, and Eclipses. The physics
class saw a roll on the metric sys
tem and the chemistry classes will
view the aame this week. These add
a great deal of interest to (the study
of subject which otherwise might
seem to be rather concrete to some
students.
The micro-projector Is a machine
which has not yet been used this
year, but will be used later. Its pur
pose Is to flash on the screen those
subjects which must be magnified In
the same process. Slides for this ma
chine are the same as ones used for
the microscopes. The class deriving
most benefit from tills projector will
be the biology classes.

Stresses the Prevention of
War; Urges Help in
Peace IVomotion
A social science assembly was held
after the general assembly Friday
morning. Mr. Handsaker, who Is with
the National Council for the Pre
vention of War, spoke before all the
social science classes.
Mr. Handsaker talked on world
peace. - He stated that the world Dis
armament Conference Is to open a
week from Monday, at Geneva, Switz
erland. Mr. Handsaker'' says that a
lot depends upon what happens at
Oeneva. He says there Is a splendid
chance that the dreams of the youth
of today may never be realized. The
Geneva conference will determine
whether or not the world is to have
lasting peace or another world war.
The next war if there is one will
be a different story from the last
Great War. The countries will know
how to fight, and they will have the
most scientifically Improved Imple
ments of war such as deadly gas. dis
tance guns, and numerous others.
Mr. Barlow, an important figure In
the -World War. guarantees that he
can destroy a large city: at 1000 miles
with only an army of 6000 men.
Mr. Handsaker advocates a "pep
assembly." for tbe citizen ry of all
towns, for the purpose of explaining
the League of Nations. Hugh Bun
