Ross and Charles Lewis left us in November to attend school in California. In December Donald Riddle of the 4th grade moved to De Lake, Oregon. During the remainder of the term our number neither increased or decreased. We are proud of our school and we have tried to show our appreciation by caring for our nice building and doing our school work well. We have endeavored to engage in activit'es which will prepare us for good citizenship and enable us to be an integral part of our democracy. Our 4-H club work is foremost in group activities. The 4-H Health club has had the full membership of the room. In addition to this we have members in Sewing I, Cooking I, and Sewing II. We have been fortunate in securing very efficient leaders for this work: Mrs. Everett Meagher for Sewing I, Mrs. Austin Wilson for Sewing II; and Mrs. H. Hiles for Cooking I. The boys have not been affiliated with the 4-H club; however we have had a handicraft working group and have made a number of useful pr'Wes. We are grateful to Mr. Lundberg and his class in shop work for their kind help. Our Junior Red Cross was organized early in the fall and while we did not join in any foreign activities we have accomplished several units of work near our homes. Our “Hobbv Club” is one of our pet organizations. It is the source of muoh varied enjoyment inasmuch as we not only are interested in our own collections but often contribute to others. As a final and fitting event for the year we have a Dicnic. The past two years we have enjoyed it jointly with the primary grades and expect to again this year. -(29)

The Riddle seventh and eighth grades are just concluding an enjoyable and successful school year, both from a scholastic and an activity standpoint. At the beginning of the first semester an enrollment of twenty three occupied the room. By the close of the term thirty were members of the classes. A majority of the boys played on the basketball squad, which had a more or less successful season. As a team the boys were smaller than their opponents, but made up in speed, ball handling and enthusiasm what they lacked in altitude. Our girls practiced volleyball faithfully and were welded into a strong combination. Although they played no games, the practice and experience they gained should aid them greatly on high school teams. Eight 4-H clubs were carried by the group and all units completed their projects. Many won prizes on their exhibits and demonstrations at the Canyonville spring fair. The forest Guards had many enjoyable and educational trips, including a week-end excursion to Wolf Creek Camp on the North Umpqua. Marketing day in Roseburg for the “MarketingClub” was another of the year’s highlights. Sufficient money was earned by plays and candy sales to award a 4-H club summer school scholarship. At the close of the second semester eleven eighth graders joined in a beautiful graduation ceremony. -(28)-
