CCCLVILLE GCADIE NEW The pupils of the first and second grades acted as reporters and wrote their own news article as their contribution to the annual. The article which they wrote follows: Today is Friday, March 27, 1942. This is a lovely, sunny day. It is a happy spring day. There are 34 boys and girls here today. Four children are absent. We are 38 in all. Miss Davis was our teacher until Christmas. She went to Jackson. Ohio, to teach the second grade. Then Mrs. Malone came from Torch School to teach us. She says we are a fine group and have done a lot of good work. She is proud of us. We like our great big room with all the big windows to make it light and cheery. We have the nicest lot of books in our library and we read and read. Sometimes we visit other rooms and read for them. We love to sing and play. Mrs. Cliffton teaches us music. Our Toy Band was a special number in the Christmas program. We are learning a new piece. Our Starry Flag.” Best of all are the good meals prepared for us in the school lunch room. We are thankful for the fine school spirit and cooperation which have made our first years in school a very happy experience.” The third and fourth grades, with Miss Humphrey as the teacher, began this school year with an enrollment of 26 in the third grade and 21 in the lourth grade. The total enrollment to date for the school year is 52. The attendance has been very good. Both grades took part in the Farmers' Institute program, and also had a very interesting exhibit of a stand and two small chairs which the fourth grade pupils themselves made from orange crates and painted. The pupils are collecting sales tax stamps, the proceeds from which will be used to purchase needed articles for the room. Pupils from both grades took part in the Christmas program. Five pupils take violin or piano lessons each week. Vocal music is taught twice a week. Grades five and six. with Mrs. Alden as the teacher, have had a total enrollment to date of 47 pupils, who. until an epidemic of measles came along, have maintained a good record of attendance. Few extra activities have been attempted. For Farmer's Institute much interest was shown in the assembling and arranging of a colonial fireplace display. At Christmas time our group, under the supervision of Mrs. Clifton, took part in the operetta, The Gingerbread Man. Later the sale of seeds and magazines, together with personal sacrifice, made it possible for all the pupils to take part in Red Cross and War Relief giving and in the purchase of Defense Stamps. The total enrollment in grades seven and eight was fifty. Of these pupils twenty-three were in grade seven and twenty-seven in grade eight. Nearly all school time was devoted to school work of the regular sort, according to Mr. Strickler, the teacher. These grades assisted in the Christmas program, which was directed by Mrs. Cliffton and Mrs. Alden. Music pupils also assisted in the spring concert given by the high school. Mr. Wiley has been laying the foundation for future ball teams in this group. The boys played several games away from Coolville as well as taking part in the tournament at Marietta. The departmental work was divided among the teachers as follows: Mrs. Alden. English; Mrs. Cliffton. Music; Mr. Wiley, physical education: Mr. Strickler, science, geography, history and arithmetic.
