DER WINTER Winter-die Nacht ist kalt, dunkel, und schliifrig, Es schneit und das Geheul des Windes ist schrecklich; Draussen schnurrt cine Katze kliglich, Ich liege vorm Herd und 1656 t'ziglich; Es ist warm in dem Haus, und angenehm zu sein, Aber draussen ist es grausam ohne ein Heim.

A MARKET PLACE ON THE RHINE Ullustrated on page 2D BOUT the large square in the heart of a typical German town, are scattered rickety tables, humble push-carts and crude counters, piled high with assorted merchandise. Crowds of people are standing about, some bargaining, others gossiping and most of them simply satisfying their idle curiosity. For it is not merely a shopping center, but also the gathering place where public announcements and political speeches are delivered to the citizens. THE I936 OLYMPICS The 1936 llOlympicsf which will be held in Germany, are going to do more to build up that lost feeling of friend- ship for Germany than any other fac- tor. Since control was assumed by a Chancellor, whose policy is being car- ried out by his people, the good will which existed towards that country un- til that time, has decreased rapidly. While the Olympics will not wholly re- store that feeling, it will be the first step in the right direction. Healthy sports, and fast, exciting competition, does a lot toward creating friendship between the competing athletes. All the people will have Ger- many filled with the spirit of comrade- ship. They will go home to their re- spective countries and spread this feel- ing. Germany needs that help to counter- act the past few years. The 1936 Olympics will help tremendously. Anne Kanner, RD4. MEIN KLEINES KIND Siehst du nicht das kleine Kind? Wie schon ihre blauen Augen sind! Ihre zarte Stimme auf dem Wind, Lacht frohlich, ach, so wunderbar!

A FARMER OF ARIZONA I am a farmer. I plow and till the soil and plant the seeds. We farmers use fertilizer to make the soil rich and in return the earth is kind to us. My farm is in Arizona. We get our water for the fields from the irrigation canal in Salt River Valley. Others get it from the Coolidge Dam in the Gila River. I love the smell of the fresh turned earth. In the spring, after my daily work is done and the evening meal is finished, I love to sit on the porch. The budding trees and green grass smell so sweet. In the spring my chief crops are alfalfa and corn. In the fall I sow wheat. The great drought of last spring did much damage to our crops and fields. It turned rich farms into deserts. Mother N ature is almost always kind to us. She makes us work hard, but she rewards us for our toil by giving us a rich harvest. Dorothy Levin, 8A I THE LIFE STORY OF A SHEEP I was born on a grassy plain in Texas. I was a little dizzy at first but after a little rest I followed my mother who fed ravenously on the tall, green grass. After a while I, too, followed my mothers example. As I grew older, I Climbed from one mountain to another and dug my mouth into the small crevices to pull up a juicy blade of green. As you know, we are very sure-footed and I thought it great sport to climb up to the most inacces- sible peaks. We are very useful animals. We supply the world with meat, wool, leather, and milk. I have a few rela- tives living in Montana, California and Wyoming. Some of my foreign bro- thers live in the Soviet Republic, Aus- tralia, and Argentina. Well, this is all the story telling I can do for one day. I hear my mates calling me to have my wool sheared so I must say good- bye. Ruth Kornfeld, RB5 vvvv CORN Proudly the stalks of corn nod their heads in the late autumn breezes. Ah! doesn,t the golden color make you want to Close your eyes and sway your head to some beautiful music? Doesn't it seem a pity that these golden creatures will soon be gathered and ground into some food for us to eat? Soon all the farmers, who raise corn on their farms, will be busy gathering it. Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Minnesota, and Indiana pro- duce more com than is raised in all the rest of the country. It is planted THE SPECTATOR Q0 200 in May, on the farms of the corn belt, and harvested in October and Novem- ber and as late as December. Corn is an old Saxon word meaning llgrain? It is our largest and most valuable crop and is grown on more than three-fourths of the farms in our country. Poor Mister Corn, he is planted, harvested, and then ground into the food we eat at almost every meal, every day. Florence Fodor, 8A8 Page Forty-nine'
