FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADES Throughout the year we have striven to carry out the four-fold ideal of education, without which no process of development can be truly called education. Bible reading, Bible stories, or prayer, were introduced into the daily regime of ac- tivities. A'Apple rolls,'i and popcorn parties were quite popular. During inclement weather, every child had an opportunity to play daily in the gym- nasium. Basketball held sway with the older lads and lassies, while the smaller young- sters played various games, such as indoor baseball, schlaug, and volley ball, in addition to the Old Faithful ring games. Q Illness compelled VVard Brubaker and Irene Eubank to withdraw during the year. Those who moved away were Samuel Messick, Blanche Bennett, Denver Crowell, Clar- ence and Ruth Benner, Eldora and Orville Hall, Clyde, Carl and George Puckett, George and Dora Acton, VVilliam Jackson, Corwin Matthews, Ethel Jackson, and Williani Saunders. Jennie Hamm and Rawleigh Cooper were absent when the above picture was taken. An interesting fact about these grades is the prevalence of unique nicknames. Some of the most unusual are Daffodil, Bean, and BruieH among the boys, and Mousie, 'lCol:fee, and '4Margie for the girls. El II U31

CRobert Rust and Evelyn Hartl. Twenty are in the Eighth: thirty-two in the Seventh. So long has the present incumbent held sway in Kingdom No. Seven, that eight milestones have become moss-covered. The Cognomens of Room Seven's inhabitants range nearly the entire length of the alphabet,-ambling from A until they nnally wag out at VV. The size of its citizens is so distributed that even the most iinieky are pleased,-- expanding from baby Elmer to the more graceful of the contrary sex. The Boys' Basketball Team had a perfect season,-in the lost column. The girls' team did as well. The satellites of the cinder path consist of 'fljoofyf' Shorty, Radio, VVag, Shif, the Coops, the Moseys, Tommy, XVak, Lucer, 'fBrown, and Hanini. Artie Brubaker brought home the bacon in the county eipherin' contest, while Shorty Tamplin had a look-in in the spelling. In retrospect we should say this has been a most prosperous year for us. l17iI

THIRD AND FOURTH GRADES VVhen school opened in September there were eighty-four pupils in the Third and Fourth grades. The course of study, as scheduled by the state, has been followed and the work completed. More than the usual amount of supplementary work has been done in both grades. Quite a number of programs have been given by the pupils throughout the year. The children have completed the three books required for Reading Circle certiheates. Much enthusiasm was shown in a spelling contest between the two grades during the months of January, February and March. During the last week the score was held even making the resulting score a tie. Our recreation periods have consisted of physical exercises, games, and drills. The spirit of rivalry between these grades in their school work has at all times been accompanied by close relationship. l19l
