SEVENTH GRADE CLASS HISTORY Arlis Fairman The first month of school seemed rather queer. We HS8V6I1l1l116S' wandered in a daze from class to class. Sometimes we didn't know what class was next and had to ask our companion. We soon got acquainted though, and now feel much easier and rush from class to class. We had several parties and, of course, had good times. We shared the junior high party with the eighth grade. Each division of the seventh grade had a Christmas party and, of course, a Valentine party. S Nothing unusual has happened. We had the customary election ol class officers. Those elected were Jack Hess, president, Bonnie June Chain, vice president, and Arlis Fairman, secretary and treasurer The class is running along smoothly and probably will until exams come along. We are looking forward to five more years in good old B. H. S.

Most subjects-perhaps all of them-can and should be taught in such ia. manner as to contribute to the achievement of each of these objectives. The aim of all education is to help boys and girls make more satisfactory adjustments to the situations in daily life. We endeavor to give our pupils a growing ability to meet daily situations and to make satisfactory choices in daily life. Beginning with the kindergarten the teacher has these aims in mind, as the child is there taught to work and play with others. There, also, as through all the grades projects are developed which train the child to study questions from all sides. With their work in the gymnasium, their art and music classes, their safety and citizenship clubs, their nature study activities, as well as the generally accepted school subjects, an educational program is planned to develop the Wh-ole personality of the child. While knowledge from the past is made available for the child, the grade teachers are endeavoring to train the children -to become law-abiding, order-loving, construc- tive men and women of tomorrow. age Thirty
