Suggestions For The Teaching Collection In Biology, O. R. Clark

Science Bulletin

There is nothing in the Biology course which can take the place of carefully planned and directed field work. The students should be encouraged to observe carefully and accurately for themselves and be given every opportunity to become acquainted with living things in their natural surroundings. The aquarium and terrarium can be made to supply much interesting material for study and should be in the laboratory whenever possible.

David Starr Jordan: Editorial

Science Bulletin

The subject of this sketch seems to have been fortunate in both conditions, heredity and environment. He developed a huge, vigorous body and a powerful, alert mind, one peculiarly capable of noting and retaining infinite details of color, form, and structure. The fishes, a group characterized by almost unbelievable diversity of form, color-pattern, and habitat, were thus admirably suited to his retentive type of mind, and David Starr Jordan became an ichthyologist, a student of fishes.

Induced Current Electricity, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

In the May Number of the Science Bulletin, the writer gave a brief outline of the historical development of our present knowledge of the magnetic properties of an electric current. In tracing this development from an experimental point of view, a brief statement was made of the contributions of each of the following renowned scientists: Oersted, Arago, Ampere, Faraday and Henry. In this article of the May Number no reference was made to current induction as one of the magnetic effects of an electric current.

The Toll Of The Automobile, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

When the telegraph first came into general use in this country thousands of birds, particularly prairie chickens, were killed annually as a result of flying against the tightly stretched wires. On account of its great height, many birds collide with the Washington Monument, and are thus fatally injured; every lighthouse along the coast takes a great toll of birds during the year. The railroads destroy many animals also, but the automobile murders more wild animals than all the above-mentioned things combined. In the destruction of our wild fauna, it is next in importance to the rifle and shotgun. The Isaac …

Phantom Ringnecks, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

Now the ring-necked pheasant is a big bird; he is about the size of a well-fledged leghorn rooster, weighs perhaps three and one-half to four pounds, and, including his long tail feathers, stretches easily two feet or more in length. Moreover, Nature fairly outdid herself in beautifying the ringneck; he is a perfectly amazing combination of green and red, of white and gold and bronze. His mate, on the other hand, is about the color of a prairie chicken, severely plain, modest and retiring.

Are You Healthy?, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

Most authors of texts on hygiene have presented some sort of an ideal towards which each individual should aim. All of them have merit, but the present article is based largely (with a few modifications) on the eight points of "The Health Ideal" as set forth in the "College Text Book of Hygiene" by Smiley and Gould.

First Aid In The Laboratory, O. B. Read

Science Bulletin

From the nature of the work carried on in the laboratory one can not always control the results obtained. Accidents are liable to occur at any time. They may arise from many causes among which are incorrect reading of experiments by students, carelessness in obtaining material, defective apparatus, and poor manipulation. The kind of accidents occurring frequently are cuts by broken glass; burns caused by fires, acids, and alkalies; explosions; injuries by breathing poisonous gases; and fainting.

Permanent Achievements Of Science, W. H. Kadesch

Science Bulletin

A very delightful man whom I once knew often said that he was deeply grateful to science for all its invaluable gifts to humanity, but that he would have more confidence in scientists if only they would change their minds less frequently. His indictment of science for its instability was a long one, and took a wide range.

Vitalizing Science Teaching, E. J. Cable

Science Bulletin

Scientific problems are not generally discovered by those who sit and idly dream of ease and pleasure, but are found by those who walk through nature with eyes open and all the senses awake to the myriad question marks that are encountered at every turn of the road. Every boy and girl may acquire the scientific turn of mind without the use of a laboratory fitted with expensive apparatus, although all great scientists do their most valuable research in such laboratories. What the science teacher of our public schools needs to do is to direct young life to be always …

Narcotics, H. E. Rath

Science Bulletin

The law requires that the nature and effects of both stimulants and narcotics be taught in the public schools. A short time ago the writer asked a dozen college students to describe the nature of the effects of narcotics, and to give the extent of their use. The replies were all much alike. All seemed to have a hazy idea that narcotics put a person into a stupor and that while in this condition the addict dreamed rosy dreams and had a pleasant time generally. Likewise most of the dozen seemed to have the impression that the use of narcotics …

Why Biology?: Editorial

Science Bulletin

Recently, a yoting woman of strong antivivisectionist convictions entered the office of a professor of biology and asked if she might buy some cats which he was keeping for dissection. Upon his refusal of her request - for cats have a way of becoming scarce when wanted for anatomical purposes - she said caustically: "You biologists are regular butchers. Unless one is going to be a doctor or a teacher of biology, what good can it possibly do to know the insides of a cat'?"

The Evolution Of The Junior High School, Robert E. Mcconnell

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

The junior high school as we now know it is of very recent origin. Two decades ago it was practically unknown, and the real outstanding developments have occurred since the close of the world war. As is the case with all social institutions, considerable agitation occurred before a unit appeared.
