PRACTICE SCHOOLS DO A GREAT WORK
TRETTIEN SAYS UNIVERSITY MAKES GOOD TEACHERS
Oread High School Makes Possible Detailed Study of Needs of Academic Students.
"In the last ten years there has been a decided movement in the establishment of practice schools," said Professor Trettien, principal of the Oread High School, today. "The School of Education has established our practice school both for the benefit of students and teachers. University students who have finished the necessary courses are permitted to teach in the Oread High School under the supervision of the academic departments in the School of Education and under the direction and criticism of the principal of the high school who is a member of the faculty of the School of Education.
"The purpose of students has changed in the recent years. Formerly the boy or girl attend ed high school merely in order to prepare for the University. Now they go to big school, first to study moral and social forces and, second, to find out what their own talents are. Under the new conditions, a much broader curriculum is required than formerly. Our school is organizing a thoroughly modern course of study with the most approved library and laboratory equipment possible.
"Since the school was organized in September, the enrollment has increased to eighty and the teachers are busy studying the problems of class instruction, individual differences and needs, and school organization. The class registration is kept small in order that every student may receive such individual attention as his needs may require. Under such conditions the instruction is of a higher order than can be secured under ordinary conditions. Similar schools in other universities have developed very rapidly."

METALS TO GOLD
Professor Dains Said That Was a Dream of Alchemist Not Yet Wiped Out.
Prof. F. B. Dains, Associate Professor of Chemistry, spoke on "Alchemy" in chapel this morning. He briefly discussed the history of Chemistry from the earliest times when it was thought that there were only three elements, to the "Alchemists" of the Middle Ages, whose ever-present dream was to make gold out of the baser metals. "An idea which isn't entirely wiped out even now," Mr. Dains added. The close relation between literature and "Alchemy" was mentioned and discussed by the speaker.
WILL TALK ON ICE AGE
Dr. O. P. Hay of the American Museum of Natural History of New York City will speak in chapel next Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock on "The Ice Age and Some of Its Extinct Animals." Dr. Hay has been connected with the museum for the last fifteen years. For several years before that he taught zoology and paleontology in Butler College, Indianapolis, Ind. He has written a great many papers on extinct animals and is a leading authority on fishes and reptiles of the ice age.

LECTURE ON PASSION PLAY
Rev. Olinger to Speak Next Sunday Evening.
On next Sunday evening at the First Presbyterian Church, Rev. Stanton Olinger, who is in charge of Westminster Hall, will deliver a lecture upon the "Passion Play." Rev. Olinger was an eye witness to the production in 1910 and his treatment of the subject will be a psychological interpretations of the religious conception of the people of Oberammergau rather than a treatment of the scenery and costumes.
Rev. Olinger is a fluent speaker and upon this subject is especially fine. Those who hear him next Sunday night will be given a treat.
Drinking Fountains Cause Much Trouble.
HOW'S YOUR NOSE?
"Is your nose turned up or down" runs a line of an old poem; but at that some students never realize that they have a nose until they try to drink out of one of the sanitary fountains in the hall. There everything depends on the shape of the respiration organ. If the nose is small and turned up as high as the cuffs on a sophomore's trousers the drinker may drink in long sups of the spouting aqua with ease; but if the nose is long with a discouraged droop the drinker must undergo all the sensations of drowning. In which class are you?
