Sixth Graders Champs
Of Grammar School

Anyone who has been around
school quite a bit will know that
the larger boys are drifting away
from athletics. Some are gradual
ing, and, though we hate to think
of it, many others are becoming in
eligible. The coach has job to get
boys out for team. AS this is a
brief sketch of the present, let us
look into the future. l must say
that half of the boys in junior high
school are basketball, baseball. or
football players, and number OF
them play even better than the boys
on varsity teams. This is what in
terclass games have done for fu-
ture athletics in Milford. Last week
Miss Watson's fifth grade champs
came over to high school and play
ed the sixth grade Cardinals. The
score was IA to 8 in favor of the
sixth grade. l believe this was only
because of the size and age, for the
champs took six runs in the third
inning, but weren't able to hold 1t.
Much praise was given to Cleave
Marvel for his batting and to Her
bert Jump for his pitching.

Senior Class Song
Finished By Group

On Monday, June 6, the Senior
Glass had their first song practice.
The class song was finished on Fri
day and everyone made copies OF it,.
Miss Fielder played it for the class
and the first rehearsal went off very
well. Almost everybody had hand
in writing the song. Ralph Reed
and Alice Breme got it staI ted
when they put their tunes togeth-
er and wrote a verse and chorus.
Then along came Gerald Wilson
and changed the last two lines. Vir-
ginia Simpson wrote the wO 'ds, and
Miss Feidler helped us get the har-
mOny straight. Hilda Calhoun had
another pretty tune for class
song. too, and maybe we'll be able
to use it.
The words to the song are as
follows:
VERSE 1
This is our farewell
TO Milford High School
We're going on to bigger things
1t cannot take the joy away,
No matter what the future brings.
CHORUS
We are the Senior Glass of thirty
two
So let a joyous shout ring through
and through
In work and play,
From day to day,
We've always tried our best to do.
We've not attained perfection yet,
we know,
Our slogan is to ever grow;
Then let the shout ring out into the
sky,
We love old Milford High.
VERSE II
For twelve long years now
We've climbed the ladder
To reach the goal that is so high,
And now that we are leaving school
We've come to say our last good
bye.
The rhythm of the chorus is
modelled after Washington and Lee
Swing but the tune is not the same,

as we sat down. but soon began
again. This time a woman sang "The
Lord is My Shepherd. The holy at
mOsphere was complete.
Aclang of a bell greeted us as we
entered Lairds home. An Old-fash-
iOned crier was calling out that VIM.
Penn was coming. In the charming
drawing room VIM. Penn stopped to
meet the hostess, Mrs. Laird, then
went on his way.
The next home was that of Francis
de II. Janvier. An exhibit of silver
was quite interesting, especially
when a colonial dame told us the
history of some of it. Some of the
silver had belonged to Lydia Dar-
ragh. During the time of the Revo-
luton. she lived in Germantown. One
night the British soldiers used her
house to hold an important meeting
i'm. Lydia overheard their plans
then informed Washington of the
planned attack. Since Washington
was prepared for them, the British
did not defeat the army. Lydia Dar
ragh had saved the day.

o'clock so we started home. On the
way down we stopped at the last
place of interest-C. Douglas Bucks
home, Buena Vista The front part
of the perfectly lovely place was the
home of John M. Clayton. Probably
the most interesting thing was a
portrait of Queen Elizabeth painted
i'm 1880 by Nichlas Hillard.
There, have completed an outline
of what we saw, but words can not |
express all that l learned. The eX-
quisite carving on some of the man
ties, the work i'm some of the old |
dresses, the beautiful woodwork |
must all be seen to be appreciated.
About such a delightful trip much |
can be written-much more than
can write.

that the Titanic was known as

Preliminary Yearly
Library Report
Picture by Tropea

Although it is too early for an
the year, she has kindly given this
information on a short notice for
this weeks issue.
Most important of all news in
connection with the library is any
increase in the circulation of books.
Last years total circulation of
books was three thousand six hun
dred ninety-three and this years
four thousand six hundred forty
eight or a gain of nine hundred fif-
ty-five books. OF those circulated
one thousand two hundred ninety
seven were nOn-fctiOn. Three hun
dred sixteen books were from the
Free Public Library and two hum
dred thirty-five were from the State
Travelling Library.
Two daily papers have visited us
regularly and seventeen magazines
have been contributed by our
friends.
There has also been an increase
in fines over last year. Last year
the fines amounted to seventeen dol
lars ($17.O0) and this year the fines
are twenty dollars {$20.00l.
The above figures do not tell the
whole story. Many pupils have come
to the library for reference work. 1t
has also been impossible to tell of
the number of books and pamphlets
used for special assignments. The
librarian once noted that one book
was used by twenty-three pupils in
two days.

Interesting Lecture
On Marco Polo

The pupils in Miss Watson's sec
tion of the fifth grade prepared
and gave to the other two sections
of the fifth grade an illustrated lee
ture on Marco Polo. This is the
third lecture given by the sections
during the last semester.
The following topics were Sc
lected by the teachers and pupils
as a guide in their research work:
Venice seven hundred years
ago.
2-Venice as it is today.
3-MarcO's trip through Persia.
Across the Salt and Sand Des-
erts and the Himalaya Mountain.
5-The Greetings of the Great
Khan.
6-Marco's Trip.
THE Polos Wish to RetlEn to
Venice.
Stalking the Princess to Persia.
3-The Banquet.
10-MarcO In Prison.
11-MarcO Writes A Book.
12-MarcO's Influence as the first
GeOgrapher of Asia.
13-The Great Wall of China.
The pupils selected their own
topics and from the reference ma
terial placed in their hands they
prepared an interesting lesson on
the worlds greatest overland eX-
plorer. The lecture was illustrated
with the aid of the Keystone Lam
tern Slides. The pupils not only
learned something about Marcos
early life, but they learned how Eu-
rope found a new part of the world
how the people of Venice reach
Asia for spices. drugs and silks;
and what influence his travels and
book had upon the world.

An Imaginary Trip
Up The Hudson
Teaches Geography And Art

The three sections of the fifth
grade under the direction of their
respective teachers, Miss Watson,
Mrs. Blades and Mrs. Travers had
quite an interesting experience in
art work this past month. This pro-
ject was correlated with geography
and history as they took an imagi-
nary trip up the historic Hudson.
During this travel lesson from New
York City to Albany, travelogue
picture map was made on a strip
of muslin two yards long and shows
i'm drawings many historic happen
ings and points of interest along
each of it's picturesque banks. These
pictures were first drawn on paper
and then transferred on to the mus
lin and colored with wax crayons.
Both teachers and pupils are
quite pleased with this new adven-
ture as several promising little ar
lists have been discovered among
these fifth graders.
When this project was finished
review was made of the geograph-
ical and historical facts discovered
during this trip. To summarize 1t
from a geographical standpoint, It
nroved to be Natures Greatest
Movie" Literature for the project
was procured from the Hudson
Company.

EGGS SPRING TONIC

Eggs are bette rthan any spring
tonic, says the Bureau of Home Ec-
Onomics, United States Department
of Agriculture. They are rich in iron
for the formation of good red blood,
vitamins that promote growth and
assist in bone formation, and pro-
tein for body building and repair.
One specialist in child nutrition
says that one egg yOlk a day in the
young child's diet is a means of
preventing ricketts,, and most au-
thorities agree that every child over
two years old should have a whole
egg every day if possible.
