26 THE MIRROR These are the things we like to do: We like to sing and dance; we like to play games; we like to work with clay and to make things with our hammers; we like to dig in our garden and go to the woods; we love our doll, Jane; we like to clean our house and put our things away. The Kindergarten. Dear North Shore School: We are studying the Indians. They were the first people in our country. The Ojibway Indians lived in our state and in Wisconsin, too. They lived very differently from us—in tepees out of doors. We call them tents. In our grade we are making a wigwam. Ours is not made of deerskin or hide like the Indians’ because we can’t get any. But we are using potato sacks. They are about the color and size of deerskins. While the squaws are sewing the hides together the braves are getting the tent poles ready and making bows and arrows. Our tepee will be near the sand hills under an apple tree. When you see it all made and put up put on your Indian suit and come and see us. The First Grade. Recipe for Building: First thing: First we went around exploring looking for a lot. At last we found one. It was under a shady pine tree. We chose it because it was level and shady. Second thing: Next we started making plans to decide the size of our house. We measured a six foot square on the floor. Then everyone got in it and we decided that it was big enough. Then we measured everyone in height and the tallest child was 4 ft., in. So we made our house 5 ft. high. Third thing: Then we got some 2-by-4’s and started our house. Mr. Hiler and some of the big boys came out and helped us. The Second Grade. We want to tell you about ranches so we wrote for you a story called Romaine on a Ranch. Romaine is a boy of fourteen. He lives on a ranch in Colorado. His father owns the ranch and has about ten thousand cattle and twenty square miles. There are 640

THE MIRROR 27 acres in one square mile. Romaine lives in a one story house with a porch around it. Near by is a corral. This is a big yard of three or four acres and is fenced in. Romaine takes care of the chickens, goats, and cows, and helps the cowboys with the horses. He has a pony caled Star Rover. In the fall the cowboys go out on the ranges and have what they call a round-up. A round-up is when the cowboys go out to the ranges and drive all the cattle into the corral and brand the new calves. Romaine ' s father’s brand is BIB. They pick out the fattest cows for market. The cowboys ride out on horseback. Romaine and his father ride on one side and the cowboys on the other. They throw lassoes over the unruly ones. The fattest ones are taken to the station and sent away on freight cars to the stock-yards in Chicago. Some day Romaine wants to go with the cattle and visit the stock- yards. The Third Grade. The May Queen makes me think of May And all the games I like to play: Baseball, marbles, and everything; Makes me want to sing and sing. A windy day, ’tis a windy day And all the trees do bend and sway, The birds are singing from bush and tree, And there goes a beautiful humming-bee! The Fourth Grade. The apple blossoms are in bloom And birds fly in the air. The flowers bloom and the bees do hum, A sign that spring is here. The birds build nests and sing their songs They sang the year before. And baby birds are learning to fly. We are happy forever more. The Fifth Grade.
