Wednesday afternoon a very col
orful sight indeed met my eyes
when I walked into Miss Henkels
room. For the children had beer
making lanterns and Jack-O-Lan
terms with which they have dec
Grated the room. Their creative
work also consists of Indian head
dresses with feathers of all colors
and wigwam, the exact image Of
the ones the Indians lived in, which
they are constructing together. The
pupils themselves have contributed
miniature Indian mocassins, can
oes, and wigwams which they
brought from home. Last week, the
children paid visit to the nurses
office so that they could see how
much they weighed.
Miss Chapman's second grade
