A CHRISTMAS PROJECT
AS all you readers know, the great
Red Cross drive is on and has been
on for the past month"; Probably
that small piece of money you gave
to your homeroom collector is going
to do a wonderful deed, help the I'M
fortunate.
In your school each club has been
asked to start project for the year,
or, if they choose, for Christmas.
In the Taste and Basic Club, lay
cites for the Red Cross are being
made. We have been asked by the
chairman in our town to cut out and
complete ten layettes. Although you
may not realize it, this is more than
it seems for each layette consists
of two dresses, one band, a night
dress, two blankets, one pink and one
blue, one cap, hose, shirt, IL diapers
and sacks.
The material for these clothes is
outing flannel, which is used for its
warmth and easiness to wash. The
colors are pink, tea rose and blue.
Even though this project was start
ed only week ago, the Taste and
Basic Club has made big dent in
the bundles of material. We expect
to show our willingness to help this
worthy cause by completing our work
before Christmas. Won't you help
us in any way you are able?
SCIENCE CLUB NEWS
A meeting of the Science Club was
held on Friday night, December 6,
1910. Before the business meeting
there were two pictures shown by
Mr.. Jones. One showed US how Ford
cars are made and after being made
put through such rigid tests. The sec
ond was on our National park in
Colorado. The picture showed US the
beautiful scenery of this park.
After the pictures had been shown,
the meeting was called to order by
our Vice-president, Huey Brown, in
the absence of our president, Gran
vile Hall.
Huey Brown reported that he will
make a miniature Time Capsule to
resemble the real one which is buried
under the General Motors Building
at the New York Worlds Fair. If
the wood for this cannot be found
locally, Huey will order it out of
town.
It has been the usual custom of the
Science Club to give Christmas bas-
ket each year. The articles for the
basket should be brought in the
Thursday before the vacation begins,
December 10Th. May all the Science
Club members cooperate so that the
donation may be liberal one.
