Although the method used is not exactly the same as the famous Marconi sy-aern, yet it seems to work to perfection, for further particulars apply to Charles Payne as he is a real genius for small inventions. What is the matter with the eighth grade boys? Are they graduate singers? Why, there were only four in the singing class last Monday evening. Poor, four! They said that they have to sing with all their might to keep up with the other classes. Robert Davis and Leon Parker could hardly talk when we came out from the chapel for singing too much. Good for j$u, two boys, it will do you lots of good.
