wheelbarrows, animals Of various
kinds, etc. One attracting much at
tention was Little Bo Peep and her
sheep. Until the third year, only
crayonola picturing is done, and this
work was wonderful. Much Of the
work was without patterns or trac-
ings. while some others was done
with the aid Of paper patterns. This
department of the display was great
ly approved.
The community work, that is the
work made by the cooperation of a
number Of the students. came in for
praise.
Much of the cutting was done from
gifts received by the children last
