We are always glad to have girls and boys move into our community and en roll in our room. Vfe have helped as have other groups with all the calls that Uncle Sam has made through various organizations. . Many of us have entertained the measles and bad colds. Our attendance hasn't been as good as we have wished, but we have tried to work hard. The boys have outnumbered the girls 26 to165 let us say in number but not in activity. Vie have enjoyed our year, and are proud oi our school. Above all we are proud of being young Americans. ..Q7-

Four pupils, Barbara Van Horn, Glayds Taylor, Alice Bunn, and Donald Bish, have left our district, while two, Paul Funkhouser and Norman Metzger, have joined us during the school year. This group has again been included in the department plan whereby Mrs. Stose, Mr. Osborn, and Miss Jacoby share in the teaching ot academic subjects to the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades. Special emphasis has been placed on rhythmic expression in music and on creative art and handwork. With our country's participation in the war ever increasing in intensity, the group has con- tributed generously to the drives and activities which help to bring ultimate victory. -26-

The first day of school found the Second Grade with a full enrollment, but with seats and table space to accommodate everyone. After checking and rechecking we found that we had 36 bright and shinning Second G:ad- ers. .lust before Thanksgiving .lanet Hufford left us to go to the McCutchenville School, just after Christmas Marianne Sours left us to go to the Tiffin School, this laaving 'us 34 in our grade. During the first two weeks one of our group broke out with the measles while in school, from then on we had a real epidemic of measles which went through the entire school. We decided we had really started something. In November we were given a table that bfonged in our room, so having an extra table, besides our library table we decided to make it a project table, and so have since had a new project each month, in keeping with the season and month. ln November we had a Pilgrim Village project, in December a Christmas scene with old Santa entering a town and bringing gifts. The year seems to be closing and we feel we have learned many interesting things and have lots of fun together. lt seems We are growing in every way, in Knowledge, Stature, and Wisdom -28,
