Science Service Record series

Once a week for seven weeks, or at any other intervals you choose, bring one of these great scientists to your classes. 

1) Pass around this picture, which we supply with the record. The picture, done by the beautiful gravure process, is on heavy photogravure paper, size nine inches square.

2) Read his brief biography which we have printed on the back of the picture.

3) Put the scientist's record on a portable or other phonograph, for the instruction and inspiration of the classes. Play it once or twice or as many times as necessary to be sure that the students will remember what they have heard. That is a great advantage of this method.

4) Then, if you desire, discuss the speech with the students, asking questions. For your convenience in teaching, the full speech is also printed on the back of the photograph.

You're as white as a sheet!  Your clothes are torn!  Oh, tell me! Myrt: Later Margie. I've got to hurry to make it. Help me off with these clothes! Oh, my knee! Marge:  Myrtle, you can't go on!  You're injured!  You're sick! Oh, let me call Mr. Hunt... Mr. Hunt: (in background) Overture, overture, overture... (on-the-air buzzer sounds) Myrt:  Hunt!?  A lot of sympathy I'd get from him!  He'd just bawl me out for being late. Marge:  Oh, but Myrtle, your knee!  How will you be able to dance? Myrt: Margie, last night I missed my first show in ten years. I'll go on if I have to dance with crutches... (theme music starts again) there's the music now! (crying, over-dramatic) I'll make it.... I'll make it... I've got to make it... Announcer:  And so it goes with show folks, they must forget personel worries and cares when the call comes for a performance.
