TYPING CONTESTS: VOTING MACHINE
o
(By MARY McKKNOKKK.)
There has been very little exetlio
jnent around the high school tills
week. Clawies are proceeding mnootli
: ly, and nothlng-out of the ordinary
seems to be happening.
Two days a week, the students tak
ing science, devote their tlme to ex
i perlmentlng- In the years proceeding
' both the chemistry and the phyxics

. method has been found very aatlsfnc
' tory, according to Mr. Cope, the phys
ics and chemistry Instructor.
In the bookkeeping department thin
year, three sets of books belonging to
prominent firms of Medford are be
ing kept. The students have the
privilege of working on these" when
their current requirements are In. For
thto purpose, Mr. Knox, instructor of
bookkeeping, has installed an adilini;
(nachlne belonging to him personally.
'1 he purpose of keeping these sets of
books in the high school Is to give
the students some practical exper
ience. A standard test in bookkeep
ing was given last Friday. This was
one of a series sent put by the Sunn
Normal school in Whitewater, Wis.
Those receiving the highest gr.des
were: Oeorge Sllllman, 104 out of a
possible 112; and Robert Redwine, 100
out of a possible 112.
The stenographic department Is very
popular this year. There are 94 tnk-

Each month the typewriter compa

. For some timer it has been the prac
tice of the students in typing to take
these tests. In the Underwood tests
the students are penalized 10 wortls
for each error- made-A The Itoyul
tests are somewhat harder, because
there is a limit of ifve errors. The
