We sang Dance to Your Daddy, but to our dismay it was not a folk song. There were thirteen other choirs. They all sang Folk Songs. We got 80 and the winners got 83. We wish to thank Miss Creighton for her directing and Nancy Slokerr who accompanied the choir. IRENE CHABLO ROOM 24 GRADE 6 WILLIAM H. ANDERSON Earl Grey School wishes to express its deepest sym¬ pathy to Mrs. Anderson in the death of her beloved husband, William H. Anderson, who passed away on April 12. Mr. Anderson was always ready to help anyone seeking his advice. Only this year, despite grave illness, he wrote a letter giving advice and help to one of our classes which sang one of his many com¬ positions in the festival. Needless to say, Mr. Anderson is also the composer of our school song. Winnipeg and Earl Grey have truly lost a great musician and composer. 51

THE OLD MAN OF THE SEA There was an old man of the sea, Who was as old as old could be His age no one knew, Except me and you! That age is one hundred and three, BARBARA KOSSATS PLANTS OF ROOM 24 We had a very interesting time with a plant called the Avacado. Mr. Hensley experiment¬ ed with it in his office. This is how it went. It was planted in a big pot and a stick was inserted to keep the plant upright, but the plant was grow¬ ing too long and flabby so they got a smaller pot and broke it in half. They then built the pot around the top of the plant attached to the stick and put earth in the pot. After a month or two we were wondering if the little pot had roots in it. So, to prove it Mr. Hensley did not water the big pot on the bottom. It was successful. The top of the plant above the little pot kept growing. In a few weeks Mr. Hensley is going to cut the Avacado under the small pot. PAT MUNDAY IRENE CHABLO 50 THE RED CROSS CANDY SALE RACE Room 24 decided to have a candy sale. The money was going to the Red Cross. The boy who won the Candy Sale Race would receive The Boys Own Annual Book. The race started off with Leslie Howard leading, but Gerald Pope was close behind. He had 83tf to Leslie’s $1.28. Then Nick Gyryluk made a burst of money. He was only 12tf behind. It was a close race. Leslie was still ahead by the same margin. Then Nick had another burst of speed. Nick passed by Leslie with no trouble at all, and won the race. The race had ended! Nick was first, Leslie second and Gerald third. The book went to Nick, the candy to the pupils and the money to the Red Cross. JOHN TROJACK
