teacher and all, just stood there and laughed as she rang the bell for us to come in. The first class of the day was Spelling. I was never much of a spellerg MaryBeth always won the gold star. But in Arithmetic Iwas even better than some of the older kids. After Arith- metic we would work in our phonics books until it was time for lunch. Miss Donovan would bring her skis to school, and we would watch her ,. 19' WCA X A fs gl.

We would all laugh and giggle when we saw her skirt fly up as she went by. When she wasn't looking, we would sneak away and climb up on the roof so we could slide down the sides into the snow banks. But you had to be careful, because if you got caught, you had to sit facing the wall for the rest of the day. ln the afternoon we had Reading and Geography. We all liked Geography best of all because every year we got to make maps out of flour and salt, then we got to paint them. lf everyone had finished all their work for the day and we had been good for Miss Donovan, she would let us out of school early. But that didn't last for long. One day Mrs. Pritchard, the su- pervisor, came to school and found out that we had left early. Miss Donovan got in a whole lot of trouble. We were afraid that she might get fired. From then on when we found out that the big lady was coming to the school house, we would be on our best behavior so we could be sure that we would have Miss Donovan for our teacher next year. I could see that my friend was get- ting tired, so I bid him good day and left him with his precious memories.

Just a fine school . The old man asked me to sit down, for he needed a listener. So I pulled up a chair and listened as he told me of his past, of the days when he went to school. When l was in the fourth grade we had a brand new school house. The old one burned down the year before. Well, it was just a fine school. We had the new type of desks with ink wells and a rack underneath the seat to hold our books. The teacher's desk was right up front where she could watch everybody. Be- hind her desk and to the right stood the shiny, black, potbelly stove. ln the wintertime it wasn't uncom- mon for it to get 20 below zero, so us kids used to take turns coming to school early to fire up the stove. Since school started at eight thirty, we would have to get up about sunrise and walk over to the school house and make sure there If 36393 ' f fr'- ., R was enough coal in the stove to keep us warm all day. Miss Donovan, our teacher, would come about eight o'clock to make sure everything was ready for school and to plan our lessons. Then the other kids would start to come. There were two French boys and a family of Norwegians--two boys and a girl. They always got a ride to the school house in a little two-seater cut- ter, or if it was market day, they would come up riding in a big bobsled pulled by a team of horses. The rest of us had to walk, it wasn't bad though. The most anybody had to walk was three milesg that was MaryBeth and jimmy Haily. Like I said, school was supposed to start at eight thirty, but by the time everybody got there and settled down, it came to be about 9:00. Sometimes it didn't get started 'til later, like the time Marcel and Andre got into a snowfight, and before you know it, we were all chasing each other through the snow drifts. Miss Donovan, being a young
