XXI.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO SCHOOL.April 21, 1897.Hand Work. — In the shop the children have completed wands, and racks for the wands and dumb-bellsfor the gymnasium. The older children have begunupon their racks for the bicycles. Group II has made markers for their plants, while Group IV has madeladders for the plants to climb on. In sewing, theyounger children have drawn and cut patterns forneedle books, then cut them from cloth, and commenced to sew them with button-hole stitch. Thestudy of materials and processes has taken up thedescription and drawing of the cotton gin, and morework in the rapid drawing of maps to illustrate placeswhere cotton is grown, manufactured, and the mainnatural lines of distribution.Science. — The work has been mainly upon plants,and has involved three principles. The first is thecontinuation of the work already done upon the wayin which the plant gets its food from the soil, involving further study of solution and salts. The secondline of work has been upon the growth of seeds. Beans,sweet peas, and morning glories were planted in loam,sand, molding sand, gravel, and clay. Some were putin light and some in the dark. As one of the youngerchildren suggested that the small hole seen on the beanmight let in water, the micropyle was covered withparaffine and the seeds put away in order to test thesuggestion. The next day they found the seedscovered with paraffine had swollen some, but notas much as the others, and decided for themselvesthat there must be pores in the coat of the seedthrough which the water could pass. They haveexamined the seeds from day to day to noticethe effects of water, and have also examined andtasted the coats and kernel of the seed and inferred that there was a store of food contained inthem. They have compared the growth of the cotyledon with the thickness of the seed left in the ground.The third line of work is that suggested by ProfessorCoulter with reference to the way in which plantsmove, and the causes. They have observed the oxalis,and also their own seedlings, as regards their changeof position with reference to light. In order to bringout the idea that this change is due to varying tension,slits were made upon rhubarb stems and upon appleskin to show that the skin was stretched tightly overthe surface below, and that the separation of the cutparts was due to this tension. The experiments wereso conducted as to show in which direction (whetheralong the long or other axis) the shrinking is greater,in order to bring out the connection between theshrinking and the degree of tension. Another experiment was to cut long straight strips from the stalk ofthe rhubarb, put the strips in water, and note thecurving. The point was to see whether the stalksbent inwards or outwards, with a view to showingthat as the pressure on one side was lessened bytaking away the stretched skin, it would form the38 UNIVERSITY RECORDconvex side of the curve, the tissue inside havingbeen compressed, springs out. As respects the capacity of little children to perceive the point in scientific experiments, it is worthy of note that a boy of sixyears drew and stated the correct inference beforeany of the older children. He said that one side ofthe stem grew faster than another, and that was whatmade the stem bend.History and Social Occupation. — The smallerchildren have begun the study of the life of the farmwith special reference to the processes going on at thepresent season. A model farm is being built up in alarge sand pan. The beginning is made at the houseand barn, and then from the animals, food materials,and tools found there the study is carried over to thetypical farm locality (pasture land, meadows, grainfields, etc.). The work is illustrated at every step withpaper cutting, drawing, and clay modeling. Wheneverpossible, wood work with the knife and bending ofthin tin will be introduced also. These children arehaving their reading and writing in connection withthe sentences which they form regarding the work.The older children are continuing with Greek sociallife, having completed the study and drawing of theGreek house.Number. — The older children, besides some specialdrill in multiplication and division, have had theirnumber work mainly in connection with mensurationof the circumference and area of the circle and themethod of getting the area of a. trapezoid from dividing it into rectangle and triangle. They have alsomeasured rooms and drawn plans of them to scale.Intermediate groups have worked upon the fractionaldivisions of a foot, while the younger ones have beenlearning the parts of a foot on the ruler and the partsof a pound by using the scales.Official Actions.The following rules governing the public appearance of students in University Exhibitions and Intercollegiate Athletic Contests were adopted by theAdministrative Board of Student Organizations, Publications, and Exhibitions, March 6, 1897, and by theAdministrative Board of Physical Culture, April 10,1897, to go into effect October 1, 1897 :Note. — In the following regulations the term "Intercollegiate Athletic Contests " means any public appearance in which the student in any form is understoodto represent The University of Chicago.I. During the Quarter in which he takes parts inany public exhibition or any intercollegiate athleticcontest the student must be taking full work. II. This work must be sustained at a satisfactorygrade during the entire Quarter. No student who hasreceived a Second or Third Warning will be permittedto take part in any intercollegiate athletic contestuntil such Warning has been officially withdrawn.III. During the two preceding Quarters of his residence the student must have completed full work eachQuarter, and his absences during that period must nothave been sufficiently numerous to reduce his credits.Official Notices.The regular and special meetings of Boards andFaculties, to be held Saturday, April 24, 1897, in theFaculty Room, Haskell Oriental Museum, are thefollowing :8: 30 a.m. — The Administrative Board of Libraries,Laboratories, and Museums.10:00 a.m. — The Faculties of Graduate Schools.11:30 a.m. — The Faculty of the Junior Colleges.The lectures before Divisions II- VI of the SeniorColleges for the Spring Quarter will be given byHead Professor Judson in the Lecture Room, CobbHall, beginning Monday, April 12, at 10:30 a.m.The Junior Division Lectures for the following weekare as follows :Junior I.

Davis presented a review of a paper byChodat on "The Polymorphism of the Green Algse."The probable lines of evolution were discussed, mostof the higher forms being derived from members ofthe Palmellaceae, a group supposed to contain thearchetypes of several lines of development. Dr..Kozlowski, a Polish botanist, now living in the city40 UNIVERSITY RECORDpresented a short sketch of some recent studies inphysiological chemistry. The color pigments ofanimals and plants were compared, and variousresemblances and differences traced out.At the meeting of Wednesday April 21, Professor F.C. Newcombe of the University of Michigan gave someof the results of his recent physiological studies. Hereferred to the curvature of roots in response tocurrents of water, spending most of his time in a discussion of the mechanics of curvature. Whether curvature is due to turgor or to changing elasticity of thecell walls, Professor Newcombe feels sure that bothsides of the root take part in the process.The Academy Convocation.The Eighteenth Convocation of The Morgan ParkAcademy was held in Blake Hall on Monday, April 5,at 8 :00 p.m. Music was furnished by Mrs. AdelaideW.
