us. Miss Steines pinned the names
of animals on our backs and then
we had to CUES what animal we
by making the noises
of different animals until we had
guessed the right one. After each
had guessed his name, we had a
jolly old chorus. It was hard to
tell which had the best lungs. Then
we had tearing game. We had
minute to tear out goose. Janette
Veeder received the prize. If we
hadn't known that some of them
were to represent geese, I am sure
that no one would have ever guess
ed it. Then we tried to put
nose where it
was supposed to be when we were
blindfolded. Some had rather
queer ideas of where it ought to be.
Tony received the prize for coming
the nearest. Norman Gritzmacher
received the consolation prize. He
seemed to think that a nose didn't
even belong on the face. Then we
had peanut race. Some of us
found out that our nerves wern't
nearly as steady as they should be.
Janette and Johnny tied for first
place. After another trial, Janette
won. Laurel Gritzmacher, little
visitor, received the consolation
prize. Then last but not least was
the delicious lunch which was serv-
ed. The menu consisted of sand
v,ioly1nc oolxn on1
pop, Everyone went home with a
crowded interior and a big grin
decorating the exterior. Leo made
the remark that he wished the par
ty was coming again.
We had three visitors at our par
ty. Miss Marie Schwarzbauer, Dor
othy Steffes, and Laurel Gritzmach-
er. We are always glad to welcome
visitors at our studios.
There will be a brief pause for
station announcements. This is
station SHS, the voice of Sunny Hill
School. Anthony is announcing this
program. We will now continue
with it.
The eighth grade Story Hour
produced, many fine stories this
week. Our punctuation and so
forth is improving greatly. Ralph
gave us a narration on how the
Boston Massacre came about. Law
rences stories are always rather
tragic. His story is not complete
to his idea unless some one gets
killed. or eaten up. Janette gave
us a thrilling anecdote about a
cowboy who gave up his life for
his country. Leo's trapping story
was very interesting. Here's to
some more of these excellent mar
rations.
If ever there was an industrious
group of people, we surely have
such a group in our school in the
second grade. They are studying
reading every spare moment of the
day. There's reason. Every
perfect reading lesson merits a
pretty gummed seal. Everyone is
trying to get the most.
Norbert is very interested in
studying antonyms. synonyms, and
homonyms. He likes to study the
subject better than spell their
names. I wonder why.
We had no school on Friday as it
was a church holiday. This fact
caused our meeting to be held or
Thursday forenoon instead. The
usual business was transacted.
The book racks are being filled,
some faster than others. Janette
has by far the most in hers. It
won't be long until she needs a
new one.
There are several more mats,
hammocks, and woven hot dish
mats which have made their ap-
pearance this week. We are get
ting great deal of our old thread
used up in this way.
The third grade arithmetic class
made some winter booklets In the
shape of mittens. We are putting
some of our work in them.
The second grade thinks that
there is no game more interesting
than playing Good Shepherd. 1t
makes them work pretty hard to
save all of them from the fierceness
of the storm.
This completes our program for
