Station SHS, the voice of Sunny
Hill, coming to you over the air
with the usual weekly program
Norbert Determan announcing.
We have something to tell you
about this week that we are very
proud OF, our snow house. We
think that it is good enough for
any one to be proud of. All of us
worked at it, and we worked hard
too. The boys started working on
it Wednesday afternoon. 1t wasn't
so very large, so Miss Steines sug-
gested making it bigger. So one
end wall was torn down, and the
structure was made larger. After
the walls were made high enough
for any of us to stand in, poles
were laid across the top and snow
put on top of it. This was finished
by Thursday. But the house did
not seem complete, so an entry
was made somewhat like those of
the Eskimos. A large block of
snow was placed at the entrance
and Sunny Hill was written in
with sticks. This can be plainly
seen from the road. Then Tony
made two snow men who stand at
either side of the door as sentry
men. The house is large enough
for all of us to get into it. We on
ly hope that it does not melt too
soon.
Miss Steines is reading the Mex
lean Twins to us now. We think
that is the best of the Twin series
that we had heard so far. We all
had good laugh when Pancho
and Pedro tried to get Pedro's
wife into the boat.
The Second reading class is read
ing about Mavo and Teni, two lit
tie cliff jewellers in their afternoon
sight reading class.
This program is being announced
for you by Norbert Determan over
Station SIS.
We all worked very hard Mon
day. Mr.. Bromenschenkel brought
a cord of wood to the schoolhouse.
We ranked it up in the wood shed.
Our shed it so full that we can
hardly get any more wood in it.
We had lots of fun doing it.
The stove was cleaned out Sat-
urday and we surely appreciate
the difference in the action of the
stove Mrs. Gritzmacher scrubbed
the studio too, so everything was
nice and clean.
Johnny and Tony started a new
book this week. It is all about
Brownies and their cousins.
The eighth grade geography
class is studying about India and
they think that this is the most in.
teresting country that they have
ever studied about.
Norbert finished the study of the
Western States this week and re-
ceived a pretty good mark on his
test, so was quite well satisfied.
Report cards were given out
again this week. Almost all of the
cards showed an improvement. Il
things keep on that way, of course
no one will have anything to com
plain about.
The eighth reading class studied
Snowbound this week. We learned
the first eighteen lines. We also
heard some more about Don Quix
ote, too. We surely like to heal
stories about him. Miss Steines
also read us some poems by Poe
We like the rhythm of his poems.
The second language class has
been studying the days of the
week. Some of them are surely
hard to spell.
Roman finished studying about
the Chinese. Monday he is going
to have a test about this country
It will be the first written test thai
he has ever had, so he is anxiously
awaiting it.
Virginia evidently thinks tha
her mother is the only one who
has a right to spank her. Wlher
we were piling in wood Monday
Lawrence said to her in fun 'Hur
ry up, Virginia, or I will spanl
you" She quickly replied, "Yor
