FIFTH AND SIXTH 'GQADR Mrs. Palmerfs fifth and sixth grades organized a health club in the fall. Dean Boylan was chosen president, Francis Hcxenney, secretary, John Burtis, vice-president, and Joan Mendiola, song leader. They have worked out several inter- esting units with d monstrations on first aid, personal cleanliness, etc. Our room enjoyed making room decorations 65 the tradi- tional Santa Clause, chains, window scenes, and wreaths. The climax was reached when the gifts from our tree were distri- buted. we had a picnic and wiener roast down by the river the latter part of March. we enjoyed games and more food and pop than could be comfortably consumed. Our group made Easter cards and wall decorations for Easter. we also enjoyed a treasure hunt which brought forth dyed easter eggs, candies and nuts: we made a trip to Boise an the end of school, which included a visit to the Capitol building amd other places of interest, and also the park.
