In the Grade School:
First and Second Grades, Miss
Faber.
The children dramatized stories
for the members of the Normal
Training department this week;

was given by the first grade and
''The Alligator and the Jackal'' by

soloist from this room.

Alvin Won Mosch and Oscar
Clearinghouse, who celebrated
their birthdays on the same day,
March brought candy and ap-
pies and the whole room enjoyed
fine party.
The Busy Bees have new
member, Phillip Owens of Hawar-
den, Iowa who entered school this
week.
Mrs. Ira Rogers and Mrs. S. C..
Baldwin were visitors in the room
this week.
Third Grade, Miss MCGOWAN.
Miss Shafer has been teaching
the Arithmetic in the Third Grade.
She made it so much fun and the
children thought it was much cas-
Ter to learn how many pints there
are in a quart when they could ac-
tually pour water from one mea-
sure to another.
The Third Grade penmanship
class continuing to improve. The
pupils who have the best arm
movement sit in a certain row. AS
yet, no one has had to do further
practice in pencil. We hope there
won't be anyone.
Miss MCGOWAN wonders when
her spelling class will all get one
hundred. The surprise is still
waiting in her desk.
Grades 4 and 5, Miss Thomson.
All the children are enjoying
their journey through Neither
lands. During art period we made
tulips for our room border. Also
we drew scenes of Holland show
ing windmills, steep rooted houses,
a Holland boy and a girl and a
milk cart drawn by a dog. We
plan to make a sand table which
we will tell you of next week.
The fourth grade pupils were so
happy to have every kite flying
on the Spelling chart, showing
that every one had mark of one
hundred.
Fifth grade pupils enjoyed CIV
ing their radio broadcast over
Station PEP-The Voice of PEP
telling of their travels through
the New England states. Most in
teresting in the broadcast was
why there are more large cities
in that part Of the United States
than any other.
Grade 5, Miss Jean MacLean
We received a letter from a girl
who in in the fifth grade in Has
tings-on Hudson, New York ask
ing US to tell them about our
