FREDERICK

The new school building at Fred
erica has at last come into its OWL
when it opened its doors Tuesday
September 6, to the teachers and pu-
pills who for a whole year have
longingly watched its erection and
completion. The satisfaction, the joy
the pride in its possession was
mirrored in the faces of the pupils
as they trOoped into the beautiful
auditorium to meet in general as
sembly on that wonderful first NOR
ming. With song, prayer and flag sa-
lutte a new school year began. And
what a school year it promises to
be- What eagerness and enthusi-
asm! After the opening exercises
and some remarks and advice from
the principal on how to use the new
building regular class work began.
Our cafeteria began functioning
the very first day. We feel quite
proud of the success with which it
smoothly moves along. With Mrs.
Kate Boone in charge of the prep
aration of food our teachers and
pupils will be very we'll taken care
of with respect to the noon lunch.
Some kind folks who have the in
terest of the school children at
heart have donated fruits and vege-
tables for use in the school kitchen
And do we appreciate it? Wen say
we do! Every donation makes it
just a little more possible to feed
the children inexpensively but we'll
We shall have more to say ON this
subject next week and we shall also
tell you who these kind folks are.
Our enrolment so far is as fol-
lows: Grade 1, IS; grade II, 16;

%; grade VI, IA; grade VII, IA;
grade VIII, 25. There are still some
few who have not entered because
of work on farms and in factories.
The pupils in Mrs. Harrington's
room, grade 3, are much interested
in nature study this month and are
making the acquaintance of the lar
vac of moths and butterflies. A lar
va of the cecropia has been brought
in the school room. 1t has spun the
cocoon and they hope to see it hatch
out in early spring. Two beautiful
cecropias that were hatched out in
the school room have been mounted !
and preserved in a case.
The pupils are also collecting in
sects for future study. They expect =,
to build an insect cage for live spe-
cimens in order to watch their de- !
of the life cycle.
AS a matter of fact the beautiful
building is also much appreciated by |
the pupils who are cooperating in
keeping it clean and attractive.

Finds Bones of Thunder
Beast" in South Dakota

Cedar Pass, Interior. S. Done
of the largest fossils ever taken
from the Bad Lands Is being re-
moved by party headed by DR.. Ira
Edwards. Milwaukee. Wis, who
has been excavating and exploring
near here for two months.
Doctor Edwards has been work.
ing for some time on the bones Of
the brontotherium, known as the
thunder beast. He made the dis
covery some time ago and. due to
the way the bones were buried, he
has decided to excayate the entire
skeleton.
The br0ntotherium, according to
Doctor Edwards, is named because
of the noise 1t made while walking.
It was a large beast. The skull
measures 30 inches across the eye
lids and AZ inches from the tip Of
the nose. Doctor Edwards said Il
belonged to an animal 10 feet high
and 20 feet long.
The actual work Of excavating
the fossil is gigantic task. As
soon as the bones are exposed they
have to be covered with a coating
of shellac. wrapped in rice paper
and burlap and plastered. This is
to prevent their decomposition from
