TRAFFIC CLUB
"Those Milne youngsters!" say
the State College People, "They
come tearing through the halls,
down stairs, and dash here and
theret I'm sure they could be
more ce-erul.*
And they could, too. If
only the llilnites would sto» and
think that these halls which they
were rushing through on their wey
to the cafeteria were not theirs,
mavbe they wold tread more softly.
The State College has given us the
privélege of usins their halls,
so we should not abuse that sane
privilege by running and dodging
odast the College people who are
probably in just as much of a
hurry as ve are.
Of course, we know that you
have only a short time for lunch
but it world not take such a lot
of time to be careful and courteous.
Everybody is starting in g
lew and different semester. In
Jilne we have more of an advantage
then other schools beoause we change
teachers. It's not that the
are bad but if we can't get along

MR. MOOSE CONDUCTS SOUND
SRIMENT IN HOME ROOM
forum eis
—
On tYednesday of last week
Mre Moose, supervisor of science,
¢onducted some very interesting
experiments connected with sound,
and sound wavese A tall gas
flame, particularly scnsitive to
sound waves, proved interesting
as well as amusing. ‘hen any
person in the room spoke a word
with an 's' sound in it, the vi-
brations of the air caused the
flame to waver and almost go oute
Mr. Moose 1so showed how
sound travels by using two tun»
ing forks. Placing them a short
distance apart and striking one
of them caused the sound waves to
strike the other tuning fork,
which picked up the vibrations
and gave off the same sound as the
first. By using a clamp on one
of the forks, and by striking
first one and then the other, a
series of beats wore produced, the
frequency of which could be short-
ened ar lenghhened as desired by
manipulations of the clamp.
The home room is looking
foward to further experincnts
which Mr. Moose has promised to
give.
