Page as THE BEACON June 1, 1937 e EVANGELINE PROJECT At last the house was finished Such a time we had before it could be comp eted or even start- ed. It could not be decided just how big it ought to be, or what wood was best to use. After these questions were discussed and a de cision reached, the house grew by bounds and soon was completed ac- cording to specifications. Per- haps you are wondering what house I am talking about. It is Evan- geline's and Benedict's home in the story of Evangeline which we read in English. James Morrison, Karl Eberly, and Paul Dannecker assumed the role of carpenters and built it. Howard Tyndall bus ied himself many seventh periods and at home at night making the thatch roof for the house. Thomas Adams graciously furnished us with the necessary straw. Differ ent members of the English class es made furniture and other things for the house. Next, we had to work out plans for making the church. Jack Sel- zer and Vincent Minger did a good job in reproducing the church where the mandaye was read to the Acadians, forcing them to leave their homes and go as exiles to America. Dave Stolte and Bob Dal man wanted to show Miss Little that they knew how to sew,so they made the thatch roff for the church. To our surprise,they did c good job. The soldiers for the church, the people for the betrothal feast, and different characters which we needed to complete our little project, were made by var- ious members of the classes. The figures were made on cardboard, painted and fitten into little, wooden standards which the boys had made. Our Evangeline project was hard work, but we had fun doing it. Probably all of us will re- member better those parts of Evan eline. We are proud of our re- sults. Come and see our house and church! Dorothy Allen, 8A WINS SPORTSMANSHIP AWARD We are all very proud of the fact that Robert Jamieson, repre- sentative of Harrison Hill School in the eighth grade Spelling Con- test which was held recently, was one of the four people who were each presented with an award for sportsmanship during the contest. The four people were chosen from approximately two hundred child- ren who participated in thespell- ing match. One award was given by the city schools, one by the parochial schools, and two by the county schools. The awards were presented Tuesday, May 4, at the new radio studio. Congratulations Bob! Mildred Hankee, BA ' BIRDHOUSE cowrrsr There was a city wide bird- house contest held at the Court House. Three of the winners were from the eighth grade of the Har- rison Hill School.
