BIOLOGY 9
General Science. students planning
to take ulnth yerr Biology, will
find
that it differs from General Sgience In
that general science deals with non -liv
ing things and biology
with living
things. In biology, as in general science^
emphasif? is placed on scientific procedure. Students ore .taught to formulate
problems, data and points pertaining to
the problem are collected and a conclusion is reached. Then a suitfible test is
dravm up. Students are required to keep
G noteb&6k, j.s in General SciencOo Pne
or two contracts, or unitb, on certain
topics are done eucn suumstei.
Insects,
birds, xisn oiid DiecS
LOXJIcs v;hich
may be covered.
In this second issue of the curric--'
ular page of the C_ imson and Wh .te WQ
will attempt to enlighten students upoa
mere elective courses which they
like to study. In the first issue we cv^
scribed the food courses in the Home Ec-onomics Department, nineth y e or Ge n'*'
eral Science and tenth year Biology®
This week wo are continuing the
Home
Economics and Biology and have added History A which is the xirst in a series
under supervision of Miss Elizabeth
Shavero
HISTORY A
One of the most important and best
liked of Milne's many subjects is History A. History A includes Ancient and
Medieval history. By studying Man^s past
record ve are able to make Improvements
for the present and predictions for the
future^
History A is divided into several
unitso EStch
nit is aai outline for the
study of-a certain phase of early hi story o The course extends from the ^udy of
earliest
man to the ti..e of the French Revolution.
Extra reading is required, as it
counts as one que-stion on the New York
S^ate Regents Excminationo Extra work
done outside of class alsc counts toward
raising one's class mark.
Early grammar school history gives
on the idea that this subject is a continual line of dates that must be momorizede This, however,is not, trueo Severnal dates must be memorized,but for the
most part only the approximate time when
something occured is necessary. Quite
prevelent are the traces of art,English,
science and mathematics in this first
year course of history.
Miss Shaver is the supBrviscr of
history courses in Milne High School.
You may see her in her office, rccra 131,
for further information and advice.
In biology 9, students are tua^fe^it
to appreciate their environment and some
emphasis is placed on the study of the
human body.
Ninth year biology must be taken
by all students who wish to bake biology
in their tenth yc r. If you have
any
questions concerning the sciences, see ^
Dr» Moose in his office, room
In
the necu' future. He will be very glad to
help you»

HISTORY C
Unitod States, or Jknerlcan History,
is the only history required in order to
receive a high school or ref^snts diplcmQ/.
This is called History C. It is prcDC.bly
the most interesting of the three historiesfAj B, andC) which aro o-Cf.c^od here
at mi-nO} as it deals with tha Un.rtad
States®
History C Starts with the colonial
history of the United States (the seventeenth and oighteEnth centuries)^ to\?.c'ies
on all important
historical afjr'irs
which have to do with present d...y aifairs
and , then i'lnc.lly le^^ds up to curi-ent
American problems, sij i^i-ua^ijie, the bacicground of America, one is able to solve
the present day proDlems more easily end
learns v/hat Effects
the background cf
the country has on current events. Also^
it teiches the students that the condition of the United States in the future
depends a i;reat deal on their actions
to-day
HISTORY B
History B is an entirely elective
subject except when certain colleges require it for entrance credit® Despite the
fact that it is not required, It is a
most interesting and educational subject.
History B deals with recent historic and
contempor^Jf Europe. It gives a baclcground
for the thin^^s which arc h^^ppuning today
and tnosc v/hich we c^.n ujcpoct to witness
in the future*
Current events t-re stressed particularly because of their importance to
every one in the world todayo Then, too,
the current events v/hich
re discussed
in the class rooms tod'^y will become the
important history of tomorrovu It is,
therefore, v^^ell to be imformed about the
events v/liich are going on in the world
about us. This makes H^.story B a very
worthwile cout-se for students v/ho wish
to keep well-informed on current affairse
Under the able guidance of Miss
Shaver, the History B course in Milne
High School offers a broad ranga of knowledge oiir.t will help the avera^^e student
^0 more fully understand the .jcmplicated
affairs of the world at large^

CHEMISTRY
In today5 world we find a great
deal v/hich is different from yesterday^s-j
One of tbe most amazing" advances ha^
been in the field of chemistry.. Fifty
years a ,
word chemical science ^ vns
unlrn^vxs Toaay it describes one of the
prinu'pol p.M.l;.\rs of mcl-rrn industry and
life, V-thout it, automob.i.loi^ would be
l.ltc>.e bot. cer thcji they were t.wenty—fivc
y 9 ar 3 a go j, f c r ch c mi c al s c i e a e h.a s d e<-'
V3] ope'-] paints, steel alloys, plasties;
glass, and hundred other little things
which have been the factors in the im—
pro Yen; en t of the aattomobil e., It is so
in most other industries, too, and there
are great companies, as witness the
Pont plants, devoted to chemi'jal science
alone o There ie an ever'-increasing ds--'"
mand for scientists and research worker^
in chemistry,, It affords a secure, grow-"
ing, future for any interested person^
and it certainly does not take much en-^
triisiasm to get interested, for it is a
subject which routes the curiosity, and
is immediately interesting^
High school chemistry, while it does
not reach the complicated stage of professional chejiiistryij. provide.^ a back-o
ground of work which is the groundwork
for the higher structurco Without chem«-'
is try in high school it would be impos€>
sible to understand industrail chemistry
or to appreciate it® V/hile it does re*quire a reasonably intelligent person to
really gain anything from it, it is not
a stiff course, and once one is launched
in*it it ceases to be a course at all,
