Formerly they did their weaving in t.he Carding Mill, but last summer a new building was erected behind the Carding Mill. Every afternoon after school one will find some of the girls busy working on their looms. They select their own colors and designs. make their own warp up, and set up the looms. Most of the girls started out by making lunch- eon sets. They gave them away as gifts or, if they cared to, they left them in the Carding Mill to be sold to the visitors. They also made scarfs of gay colors, and table runners. Most of the girls made coverlets, or are busy working on them now. They also wove coat material. Young boys and girls of the Village have also become weaving enthusiasts, and it seems to us the children of olden times could not have done any better work. YVeaving has developed greatly in the past year, and many fine pieces of work were displayed at a recent school exhibit. hir. Holloway has given instruction to young and old. 1,-. -au ...-..4-.-.....-.....r.....-.,.......,.-.m......,.. -s... ....M... ...-.- .4. ........ ..,. ...... ..,... ......., ..-... .......,... ....f...,, ......-..

lli 1?- HERAL n1s0N INsT1rU'rr: very fittingly has called its school paper the Herald. Thomas Alva Edison named the paper he distributed on the Grand Trunk train by the same name, and it isn't unusual that the boys and girls should want to follow the same example. The paper was first published on February ll, 1934-, which was the anniversary of Mr. Edison's birthday. The paper is made up of material sent by the schools associated with Edison Institute, and is . ' - 1 edited by a stad of students from the high schoo . BETTY HUTCHINSON V i D STAFF Perhaps the most unusual thing about this paper is the feature article which introduces each issue. These feature articles pertain to some part of the ' ' ' ' liable informa- Museum or Village and give very va i tion to its readers. The pictures in the paper are mostly taken by the students. The paper is pub- lished every two weeks and at the end of the year tissues previous to February llj the copies are bound for all the students of the associated schools. ' l We congratulate the members of the high schoo th' ear. staff for the fine work they have done is y Editor 48 MISS SCHRUBBE Admsor H A ,' gku ,fi , A I 1 1 lqfri

RADIO CL B l Qln circlej M na Edison Institute Radio Club was organ- ized January 541, 1935, by a group of students interested in radio-telegraphy and radio-phone. The members of the club are able to receive inter- national code at a minimum rate of five words per minute. They are also members of the radio classes of the Edison Institute. Actually, most of the club members exceed these mininunn require- ments and can receive the code at a much faster rate. At this date one member of the club, Yvillys INIcCloud, is a licensed amateur radio operator, + R. GASSETT and others have taken the examination for their license. or are planning to. The clnb's activities in the past two years have been varied. In addition to casual ham QS O's, the club has held picnics. assisted in transmitting flood messages, visited radio stations and scien- tific laboratories, and produced its own amateur radio plays. lNIr. Yvilliam Gassett has sponsored the clnb since its organization. Club members must feel a deep sense of satis- faction in their accomplishments. 50
