Mckinley School
One of the 2-k classes has had
perfect attendance for a week twice
this semester. AS a reward the
class may keep the attendance
, banner for a week. There is no
doubt but that they will try to keep
it from now on.
Last week there were several very
welcome visitors at Mckinley
school. They were Mrs. Marjorie
Moore, Mrs. Marguerite Brooks,
Miss Frances French from HaWard-
en-, Iowa, Mrs. Jewel Matthews, and
Mrs. Lena Woods.
Also, there were two new pupils
Henry Ford in the ga and Edsel
Ford in the l-B. We are looking
for big things from these boys.
Verda Burnett, l-B pupil, start
ed q new savings account. The
competition for the banking picture
grows stronger and stronger these
last weeks, as the room that wins
it most often may keep it perman-
emily. The IA room believes they
are ahead SO far.

We have story period after l
o'clock. Today Miss Hedrick read
the last chapter III our book. 1t was
the interesting story of Lisbeth
Longfrock. 1t was taken from
longer Norwegian story.
We liked the story because it
described the valleys and mountain
ridges and told about the farm life
in Norway-Philip Knights and
Joe Matthers, AL.
Mckinley school children tried to
show their appreciation of their
mothers before and on Mothers day
in several ways. They not only
thought and talked about what
their mothers meant to them, but
found and listened to poems and
stories that expressed their appre-
citation and lead them into a fuller
realization OF what their mothers
love and care means to them. The
purpose of observing Mothers day
in the school is TO help each child
grow in his love and pride of his
mother.
The kindergarten children made
corsages of crepe paper flowers for
their mothers The 2-B-2-A class
made place cards for mother for
Sunday dinner. The PAS potted
coleus slips in cans they painted
and decorated themselves. The 9TH
er classes made Mothers day cards
of various descriptions.
