February, 1954 THE FULL MOON Page 7 Science Projects Completed The General Science classes, house, and barn made under the direction of Mrs. Saun ders and Mr. R. C. Hatley, have finished and handed in their half semester projects. A model Power Dam construct ed from plaster of paris and card board was Robert Smith’s contri bution. This project shows how water pressure can turn a dyna- nio, producing electricity. A dismantled water pistol was handed in by Jerry Hinson. The project shows how, when the trigger is pulled, a small pump forces the water out of the nozzle. A scale model hydraulic press was constructed by Conrad Hath- cock. This project made from an oil can lifts a weight many times greater. A cross section of an automo bile water pump showing how the pump forces water through inlets and outlets to cool the motor was done by Marvin Thompson. A small scale model lake. Bruton explains how many ways water can be used daily. A scale construction showing how water is filtered through rock, sand, and stone, respect ively, was made by Wayne Eury. An old fashioned “lift” pump was very good. The working model shows how modern knowl edge helps to make our lives easier. The model was made by Wayne Eudy. A large array of posters was drawn. Out of this group the following were chosen: A color ful poster drawn by Bobby Ned Barrier shows how a filtering “tank” works. A diagram of a Permutite tank showing how hard water is soft ened as it passes many stages was drawn by Mickey Cagle. Sue Page’s diagram of “Water Power and Electricity” shows how water power is changed to electricity. D. D. Sparklers By DONALD DORTON Well, Christmas is over and it’s time to begin a new yeaj. I think that the best way to start the new year is to start With a few laughs. During the Christmas holidays I had some '^ery humorous times. I found that the more I laughed the bet ter I felt and the more enjoym^t I received from Christmas. No doubt most of you had jobs over the Christmas holidays, so I Would like to tell you of a little story I ran across not too long sgo. "How to Know Your Employer" (Having trouble understanding your boss? Here's a handy list that will help you when you see his lips moving and his eyes bulging out of his head.) “Miss Jones,” he says. Do you think you can finish this in time?” (He means: Stay ana Work overtime!) , “I’m sure you deserve a raise, he concedes. “However— (he Ji^eans: No.) “While I’m on vacation, I want you to have sole charge, ne insructs. (He means: You re re sponsible.) , “Watching the clock is a bad habit, Sammy,” he claims. “I don’t mind a man's making ^ mistake, Benson, costly as tms one is,” he says. “But case —” (He means: loure fired.) ^ “My boy, I’m proud of you. This report is worth its ih gold. I'm going to submit i hiyself.” (He means: I m going to take the credit.) Humorous Phoolosophy One reason why romance last ed much longer in the oM days was probably due to the f^t that the bride looked much the same after washing her face. During the depression the wool thrpoliticians pulled over peo ple’s eyes was half cotton. It's what we learn after we know it all that counts. Some people’s voices are hard to e^inguish over the phone. When things start to look blue, make an appointment with an optimist. « Wouldn't it be nice if someone would invent a whirling bath tub that spins you dry. It has been said that “the more you grow up the less you blow up.” Sometimes I wonder. if this will ever come to^ass^ A back seat driver out of gas. — What most men say home goes, except their wife s mother.
