Dear Junior Folks.

Dear Junior Folks:
Did you ever stop to ask your
selves why you go to school? Did
you, Junior Folks? OF course you
so to school to learn a certain
amount of English, Music. Art,
Science, Mathematics, etc. 1t is
well for you to know all of these
things but Junior Folks there are
other things that you learn in
school that are just as useful to
you. One of these things is the
Art of learning to LISTEN. Jun
Tors, II you would listen to what the
teacher says and then remember it.
why then Junior Folks, you
wouldn't be made to hear the same
things over and over.
Folks when you get out of school
and start fighting your own battles
with the world you will have to lis
ten to other peoples opinions or
else Juniors, how are you going to
climb to the top of that ladder of
fame that we all wish to climb l
heard of travelling salesman who
said that he had made most of his
sales by just listening to other
people. You see he would just lis
ten to their complaints about their
health and business and of course
he would be very sympathetic, then
the first thing they knew this sales
man had sold them his goods. So
Juniors, when you think that it
doesn't pay to listen just think of
the salesman who made all his
sales by listening.

THE MONKEY AND THE PEAS

A monkey was carrying some
peas. One little pea dropped and
the monkey tried to pick it up and
in doing SO dropped twenty peas.
He tried to pick up the peas and
spilled them all. He then lost his
temper and scattered the peas in
all directions and ran away.-Har-
vey Cook, Starr School, "A grade.

CHILDREN WORK WITH CLAY

In the kindergarten room at
Whitewater school the children
have been making little models out
of clay. Many nice things have been
made among them being little UNI
brellas. little tables and chairs.
Probably the most original thing
was Red Cross button which was
made by little Dominica Sonsini.
This was Dominic's own idea. too.

THE FLAG GOES BY
Hats off,

Hats off,
Along the street there comes
A blare of bugles a ruffle of drums,
A flash of color beneath the sky.
Hats off,
The flag is passing by
Blue and crimson and white it
shines
Over the steel tipped ordered
lines.
Hats off,
The colors before US fly
But more than the flag is passing
by
Sea fights and land fights grim and
great
Fought to make and save the State,
Weary marches and sinking ships
Cheers of victory on dying lips.
Days of plenty and years of peace
March of a strong lands swift in
crease
Equal justice right and law
Stately honor and reverent awe
Sign of a nation great and strong
To guard her people from foreign
wrong
Pride and glory and honor
All live in the colors to stand or
fall.
Hats off,
Along the street there comes
A blare of bugles ruffle of drums
And loyal hearts are beating high.
Hats off,
The flags are passing by.

only years old.
