the teachers arrived, for the children
had arranged the green benches in
rows, and were seated upon them
watching the men ns they put Up lad-
ders to begin work on tearing down
the old building. All the children and
most of the teachers would have en-
joyed having lessons outside that day.
Friday afternoon at 2:00 Mr. Wil-
liams had tho bell ruug and we all
rushd over, as near ns we were »1
lowed, to watch the south aide of the
building be pulled down. After watch-

It was not until Saturday morning
about 11:00 that the wall fell—with a
roar like distanct thunder it crashed
to earth, scattering brick for a long
distance around.
The remainder of the old building
will be down in a few days and tho
new one started on. Each pupil can
see 1“ his minds eye the new build-

AN INTERESTING LABORATORY
LESSON.
Lst Friday afternoon the Bopbomore
Physiology class had a most interest-
ing laboratory lesson. A tadpole was
the object of observation. Miss An-
derson (the teacher) first placed its
tale under the microscope, and each
student took a look. To their great
surprise they observed the blood flow
Ing at a most rafld rate through the
veins of the little creature, and the
tiny red corpuscle* could also be seen
racing through the blood. No doubt
the surprise of the pupils was due to
the fact that they had never pic-
tured the blood flowing at such an
unsual rate. Therefore they were
filled with great interest and waited
restlessly while Miss Anderson pro
£5% tadpole for further inspec-
tion. This time they were even more
intensely excited »* they discerned
figures on the animal’s body

Smaller Cars—and the
World's Most Popular Tires
. Jo tires bearing the Goodyear name, not even
the famous Goodyear Cords which equip the
world’s highest-priced cars, embody a higher
relative value than do Goodyear Tires in
the 30x3-, 30x3V2-» and 31x4-inch sizes.
In these tires owners of Ford, Chevrolet,
Dort, Maxwell, and other cars taking these
sizes, are afforded a measure of performance
and service such as only~ the world’s largest
tire factory devoted to these sizes can supply.
All that this" company’s experience and
methods have accomplished in these tires is
available to you now at the nearest Goodyear
Service Station.
Go to this Service Station Dealer for these
tires and for Goodyear HeavyTouristTubes.
