Such q man is DR.. Reginald

Yet his interest in boating is

a 20-foot sloop until the end

Then he joined the D. c.
Boating Club because it is
composed mostly of outboarders
devoted to family cruising but
found the present meeting

So the doctor set about
forming a club for residents
of Montgomery and Prince

have been found.
The Pathfinder, specially built for the
laboratory, is we'll equipped for its scientific
job. Power equipment operates plankton nets
and special dredges for collecting fish samples.
Electronic devices record water tempera-
lures at various depths and water samples may
be pumped aboard from any level under the
surface.
During runs in the Atlantic, the water
pumps were kept constantly in action and fish
eggs were collected in some cases by allowing
the water to run through fine screens.
Biologists aboard the Pathfinder must
be alert to be able to recognize the small
fish they want from the contents of the special
dredge.
Almost any haul will include such marine
animals as hake, hogchokers, crabs, shrimp,
eels and anchovies. 1t sometimes takes sharp
eye to detect the larvae croakers.

MAYFAIR
Miss Felicie Affoltor, a
teacher in st. Galens, Switzer-
land, spent considerable time
recently visiting East Cleve-
lands classes for the hard of
hearing in Chambers, Mayfair,
and Kirk Junior High School.
She was especially interested in
the work with deaf children
being done at Mayfair by Miss
Mary Hogan.
By the time the children come
over to Mayfair from Miss Alice
Kent's acknowledgements school
at Chambers, they are good
enough at lip reading that they
attend regular classes almost
all day, and receive one period
of concentrated laboratory in
struction with Miss Hogan.
Since some of the boys and girls
come in from as far away as
Ashtabula each day, they eat
their lunches here, and are able
to spend a bit of time with
visitors such as Miss Affoltor,
who can tell them a great deal
about their homelands.
Miss Hogan's pupils were ex-
tremely interested in learning
about Switzerland, and decided
to set up a two-way correspon-
dence with some Of her students
in that country. On her part,
the Swiss lady was much i'm
pressed by the intelligent ques-
tions asked her by the Mayfair
pupils, and especially by their
verbal nature "a difficul {
for deaf children.
Miss Affoltor herself speaks
French, Italian, English, and
both High and Low German,
and so was quite at home with
the local children.

Raider Camps sugar bush near
Novelty, o.
While the snow was still on
the ground (not so long agoO,
the children made detailed
study of the gathering of sap
from the maple trees, and its
prOce sing in the sugar
house, by means of reading
and recitation in their class
room. They made a large
painting of a sugar camp and
it's surrounding buildings,
equip ment, animals and
people. and worked out with
their teacher what il must be
like before they went out
there.
Then, when they at last made
their trip to the Red Raider
woods, they were prepared for
what they saw. The ground was
muddier than they had counted
on, of course; but the hardwood
smoke was also more pungent,
the hot syrup was sweeter, and
the sugar candy resulting from
their stirring was more deli
cious than they had imagined.
Another Superior class MAX
ing a springtime trip was the
fourth grade of Miss Estelle
Benze, which rode downtown by
train to visit the Ohio Bell Tele-
phone building. In a crowded
morning. they inspected the
company's museum, with its
many telephones and its story
of Bells accidental invention
of the telephone; the automatic
exchange rooms, with their
miles and miles of wires; the
long-distance switchboards, still
operated by girls; the trouble
department, which dispatches
repairmen to homes and busi-
nesses whose phones aren't
working properly; and the tele-
vision monitoring rooms, where
all three Cleveland channels are
constantly being watched to see
that both sight and sound are
being received satisfactorily.
The boys were especially in
terested in the Trouble Depart
ment the operations headkuar-
ters for all those green trucks
that come out to fix telephones;
while the girls liked to watch
the dexterous long-distance op-|
orators, and to study the futur-
istic new models of telephones.

of the children pretended they
were taking a trip on a kite,
a miIkw eed seed, bubble, a
torpedo, or the back of a
kitten. They imagined what
their sensations would be,
and where they would be go
ing on such journeys. Other
ch dren described actual
rides they had taken. such as
on the Rapid Transit or on
tn cir own pair of roller
skates.
A very real trip was taken
last week by George Dion's
Prospect fifth graders to Mid
dlefield, O. Travelling in six
cars, they inspected a farm out
side town, and then visited a
meat company and a cheese fac
tory in Middlefield. At the
| after establishment, t h e Y
watched the processing of fresh
milk through the separating,
stirring, rennetizing, straining
and settling stages, and then
were shown the finished pro-
ducts, the cheese, curing on
shelves.
They then returned to the
farm, where they saw maple
syrup being made and attended
a cattle auction. The trip wound
up in the warm kitchen of the
farmhouse itself, and there they
were served hot C h oco a t e :,
maple candy, and homemade
doughnuts and cookies Some of
the girls in the class actually
helped to make the doughnuts
right there.

ROZELLE

Another spring trip was made
by the third graders in Miss
Roxie Lodges class at Rozelle
School, this one to the Shaker
Museum at Moreland School in
Shaker Heights. Miss Frances
Everhard, a retired teacher in
the Shaker Heights system is
in charge.
The Shakers were industrious
people. and made almost every
thing they had. They had their
own blacksmith shop, tannery,
carpenter shop, and cobbler's
shop. Even the children made
their own possessions; the girls
made their dolls, out Of such un-
likely objects as corn cobs and
slingshots. The grownups manu-
factured their own sleds, OK
yokes, beds and chairs, and
some Of their own pottery.
One of the articles in the
museum that seemed to in
terest the children most was
an apple peeler. 1t really
peeled apples. and still does.
The boys and girls peeled
some themselves, to prove it.
They were also given a ride
on a homemade Shaker sled
before they left to return to
school.
The children were most am
Xious to know in which shop
each article was made, and
liked to handle the various OBJ
iects to get the feel Of them.
They also came to have an ap-
probation of old things as being
both practical and valuable, not
just old-fashioned items of ap-
parently small worth such as
they had seen sup in the attic
at Grandpa's house." Perhaps
knew what he was
doing, after all, in keeping such
things around.
