FH?SfMVHWSEEUVM3l3RHDE3 We started the year with 57 pupils and have lost a few and gained a few and now have 35. We have changed the decoration of our room with the times. We started with a farm project last fall. Next came Halloween, then the Indians and Pilgrims for Thanksgiving. We celebrated Christmas with a party. Everyone brought a gift and we had a very nice tree. After Christmas we had an Eskimo project. Valentine Day came in between the Eskinoes and the Dutch people. We will finish the year with an Easter project and of course Spring, with flowers and birds. lH1mJANoVUURUl ERQUES a The third and fourth graders at Halloween, dressed in paper sack masks which they made. They also made humbuzzers and drums. At Chrhnb mas time the children made pot holders as gifts for their mothers and turned their room into a cathedral by painting stained glass windows. In the Spring the children became the Gene Autrys and Judy Gar- lands of tomorrow when they presented a musical program in the audito- rium. The fourth grade also gave a play, making their own costumes and presenting it to the third grade. The young farmers and farmer- ettes landscaped the ground in front of their own windows with flower gardens. Some of the plants were transplanted from their indoor gar- dens. FlVTH ANDSQXH4 ERQUES Beverly Collins, Mary Lou Hentges, and Gladys Leimgruber have been present every day. The fifth and sixth grade have watched with interest, the corner board for an unusual fact each week which was written with colored chalk. Last fall the boys and girls made a collection of some of the different kinds of seeds and studied the ways seeds travel. In English the sixth grade made booklets of poems and pictures that were studied during the year. The fifth grade made booklets of stick figure drawings, each representing a hGood Mannersn rule.

L arm IM Many new changes have taken place in our sedate little library. At the beginning of the school year, it received lovely gold silk drapes, with a brown fringe trim. We made fringed cloth squares for the center of the tables, and placed displays of interest, or new books, or growing plants on the tables. Then, the school purchased almost 150 new books of fiction, non- fiction, and biography. Then, we acquired a bulletin board, which features the colorful jackets of all new books. Last, but not least, we now have a subscription to The Sentinel- Tribune and The Toledo Blade, which keeps us posted on current affairs. EUFWUEREIQL RUUIWW Please note our new mimcograph machine in this picture. We're very proud of it. Also, the table it rests on is new, and conceals a motor, which permits us to run copies without operating it by hand. we aren't exactly lazy, but multiply 82 pages in this annual by 150 copies and it makes 12,500 times to turn the crank just for the year book! We are very appreciative of the fluorescent lights which were in- stalled in our commercial room, and in the typing room, too. Formerly, on dark days, the typists could hardly even see their copies, but, now, all is changed, and every typist should be an expert! THE VUQTH RUUYTI The Math room doubles its duty as the eighth grade home room with Mr. Brueggemeier as the home room teacher. He teaches all math classes and does a good job. The math classes that meet in the math room are: Plane Geometry, Algebra, Eighth Grade Arithmetic, Jr.-Sr.-Math, and Solid Geometry. CHEITWISTRH LQ B A This year our students started handling chemicals for their first time. As usual mistakes were made. About the first time Hydrogen ex- ploded evcryone was much more careful with their experiments from then on. One day we nearly had a fire, but our professor grabbed the fire extinguisher and finished it. All in all, this was a very successful year in the lab. Nobody was hurt or injured in any way except financially. Just when you could see your and then All way to payday, you had to ruin a testtube for an experiment you had to start your financial planning all over again. of the experiments were done in top order under the superior direction of 'Doc ' Deimling.
