[[/newspaper clipping]] [[newspaper clipping]] HIGH SCHOOL NOTES This evening between 3:30 and 6 o'clock at the high school there will be an exhibit entitled, "The Relation of Latin to Practical Life," and an endeavor has been made to answer the oft repeated question, "What's the use of Latin anyway?" The exhibit is in the form of charts which have been prepared by the pupils under the supervision of the Latin teacher, wherein a few concrete illustrations arranged in a way to strike the eye and to hold the attention are better than any number of abstract statements ineffectively presented. The needs and interest of the average student have been kept in mind and a perusal of these charts will show the benefits and advantages of the study of Latin. Our Latin department takes pleasure in showing this exhibit to the public as well as students of the high school. A special chapel was held yesterday morning at 10.
