Lower School Our year is filled not only with the activities of the upper school but with those of the lower school. Dick Barchfiold and Billy Miller, desirous of representing their classmates, submitted some of their compositions as proof of their endeavors in gaining knowledge of the more important issues in life. How Easter Started Ever since the world started man knew that there was a God. In about 1432 there was a king that ruled Israel. One bright morning a woman and a man were working in a field. All of a sudden God told a woman named lhry, NThou shall have a baby named Jesus.n Jesus grew up and had many, many good friends. This is how Easter started: A king put Jesus on a cross and the next day they put him in a cave. But when the king came, the rock he.had put over the cave was off and Jesus was not dead. He sat on the right hand of God. Dick Barchfield - Grade 3 Bill's Science Science is about nature. Nature is about trees and ani- mals. Trees have roots and the roots bring up water and food. Animals get their water and food from other animals The animals get their water from streams. Nature is not only about trees and animals but nature is about bushes. You can make medicine out of herbs. Billy Miller - Grade 3

THE MIGRANT CAM S For many miles around Tucson are migrant camps. These camps are not frequented by many people, for the conditions that are predominating among these migrant workers are those of poverty endured by pathetical- ly unfortunate men and women. During the fall, once a week, a bus load of boys and girls could be seen by the unscrubbed chil- dren and workewearied adults of this clan. Descending from the bus, armed with refresh- ing good humors-and a sincere desire to help those less fortunate were the students of The Fenster Ranch School., They played games with the youngsters and the older teen agers, and wont the respect of the adults. After everyone was completely exhausted by the games and activities they had inspired in the others, refreshments were served and good things were shared by all. fThen the bus would leave with these people thronged about saying goodbye and anticipating the time when this great green vehicle would a- gain transport a little happiness into their bleak existences once again. THE VOLLEY BALL GAMES The girls excelled in volley ball during its season this year and engaged in com- petitive games with other schools. Competing with other teams is always a good source of spirit and brings forth more energetic playing than practice with one's own classmates. The schools with which we were in competition were Saint Joseph's Academy and the Valley School for Girls. c . Harding
