The same was true of the fourth grade. Groups were formed and these would exchange rooms for special classes. It was soon discovered that a change had to be made, for the groups were too large. Fourteen pupils from the third grade and ten pupils from the fourth grade formed a new home room--that is us. Being a small group, we have become a harmonious little family. Close friendships have been made. We are able to understand our individual differences . After taking an inventory of some of these differences, we discover these facts: Best liked boy ------------- Jack Forsyth Best liked girl ------- Marjorie Vereecken Best students ----- ----- Norman Geissler David Park Best carpenter- ---------- Billy Brinkman Most peppy ---- -- ---------- Arline Heale Franklin Shultz Most polite -------------- John Morelli Neatest ------------ Mary Rose Rosborough Best writerkspeller-Marjorie Vereecken Happiest --------- Best worker ------ Most amb1t1ous--- Speediest worker ------- Best whistler ---------- Most serious ------- ---- Quietest --------- Most civic minded Proudest- ------- - '-Mo st loyal ------- ------Lee Cudney Marvin Stokes Clara McCracken ----Ernest Meyer --Henry Horzempa -----Fred Foster Harold Churchill ---Betty Erhardt -Teddy Underhill - ----- Marie Roth Roy Myers ---Eugenia Gould

Olive Boyce has had perfect attend- ance since starting school in September 1936 We participated in the P.T.A. program for November, 1939, choosing a scene from the 'Five Little Peppers and How They Grew. A Sunshine Box was sent to Betty Waldron in October. A pot of tulips was sent to Beverly Crabb in February. We hope these people will be returning to school much improved in health. A few of our aims are: To increase the num- ber of words in our vocabularies. iMa- terials have been brought in to clarify many words such as bellows. To be better citizens of our school, To make believe journeys to other lands to learn what kind of food, clothing, shelter, and fuel other people have. We have drawn pictures of icsbergs, seals, bears, rubber trees, camels, Dutch houses, and French peasants. To become acquainted with the people of long ago, we have tasted a Holland Cheese and Norwegian Sardines packed in olive oil. Here are a few of our hobbies: Buttons- --------------------- Maxine Horton Baskets ------------------------ Shirley Gubb Stamps ----------------------- Janette Miller Match Folders ------------------- Erma Watson Soap ------ - --------------------- Eunice Hare Indian Handwork ------------ Charmaine Talbot Perfume Bottles ------------- Dorothy Wilford Film Rolls ------------------- Thomas Gillard

The boys and girls 1 our grade have made several booklets in cluding ones on dairy products, clothing fishing, good citizenship and news of the day. We are now interested in nature news Our magic carpet has taken us to banana land, pineapple land and date land. Here is a sample of our poetry: The Snowstorm A big gray cloud came up one day, The snow began to fly, It covered all the trees and hills, And snowflakes filled the sky. Dick Test The Cloud I saw a lamb up in the sky, As a cloud went sailing by, It was a pretty sight, All flsecy and white. Suzanne Bonney The Wind I like to listen to the wind, It sounds like a lions roar, Every night when I'm asleep He comes un to my door. Donald Baker The Rainbow I saw a little rainbow, It's pretty, I can see, But when I saw it fade away I sa1d,UThat's what I'd like to be.N Margaret Pridmore
