Second Grade.
I The second grade ehihits We're of
the weaving in cotton. wool, rattan,
! etc The exhibit Of Miss Nice luncy S
| room was weaving in rattan aud
such articles as small chairs, para
soils, wall pocket. etc, were display
ed. Above the table were papers
telling of the weaving industry and
to the top of each sheet of paper
was some article that goes into the
weaving
Miss Lena Quaile's room had on
display cunning doll apparel made
OF cotton and wool, also a part OF
the weaving exhibits, The children
of both rooms We're taken through
The cotton mill during the last term
and actually saw raw cotton being
made into cloth.
The West Ward second grade. IN
der Mrs Priehard, had on exhibit q
geography display, illustrating one
of the countries studied by the chill
drenn during the year. The scene
was from Japan and the tea house,
around which the cherry trees seem
ed almost to grow AMI bright flow
ers was most attractive. Papers
dealing with the cue.o ms of this
country We're also on exhibit.
Remember when once upon a
time" the adventures of Anderson
Snow White" kept You GREATNESS
with suspense? Well, one who saw
the exhibit in language of the
South Wards second grade was car
ried back to this beautiful fairy
story, for there was little Snow
White, asleep in the garden, the
seven dwarfs, planning just awful
things and the guard on the draw
bridge that led to the castle. The
exhibit was perfect in every detail.
Third Grade.
Exhibits from the third grade
were three in number the geography
exhibit by Miss Kennedy's room, the
Early Americans exhibit by Miss
Hollands room and the Dutch eX-
hibit by Miss Singleton's room.
The scene for the geography ex-
hibit was in the far north. Cotton
sprinkled over with glitter!ng sub
stance made one shiver and long for
an Overcoat. Tiny heads peeping
from the ingloes, or snow houses,
the polar bear playing on the peaks
of the mountains covered with snow,
the dogs and rein deer reminded one
of Dr. Cooks story of the country
when he returned from the North
Pole. Papers telling of the lives
and customs of the people formed
part of the exhibit.
In the Early American exhibit
one saw the Puritans as they We're
pictured in the histories. Their
small church of logs. the rude cabins
In which they lived, their ways of
cooking ana other features of their
lives were shown i'll contrast with
the lives of the native American. the
Indian, which showed the braves
stalking the deer, and engaging in
the pastimes dear to their hearts.
"The Leak in the Dixie" was il
Illustrated by the Dutch exhibit. The
large, spotlessly kept farm house,
near which the windmill turned, and
the canal running along side, made
the scene very realistic.
Fourth Grade.
Children who were in the fourth
grade this last year have something
to remember with pleasure, and
while 1t was part Of the regular
work, it was so devised and planned
that real interest was given the study
of mems lives The men selected
were perhaps the "livest" in the
United States The lives and works
