outdoor laboratory. At the same

been selected by the students as
their first practical project,

crops were later harvested with
machinery loaned by Mr.. McClos-
key, MIR. Norman 0'Day. Mr.. Will
lam Paskey, Jr.. Mr.. Clatyon Luff
MIR. Carroll Satterfield, and NJ r.
William Luff.
The oats and hay harvested from
these plots were stored in I h e
building constructed by the stu
dents from used lumber donated
by Mr.. farrell, Mr.. o. b. McGin-
ness. Mr.. w. ID. Luff. and Mr..
Ralph Thompson.
The building, an eighteen by
sixteen foot. open front shed. con-
tains two stalls a feed room and
feed alley. One stall is currently
being used for hay storage. In
addition to the building, there is
an exercise pen with gate.
Hearing that an animal wa S
needed. the Murderkill Lions Club
offered to advance the money on
the condition that the project be
perpetuated from year TO year
from the proceeds of the previous
year. The chapter agreed. and the
animal was purchased from Med
ford Kilien. local livestock dealer,
for less than it cost him. In addi-
tion he delivered it free of charge.

In our first letter we sent iden-

dress. things we like, hobbies. and
our pictures. From these cards
Mr.. Wilkinson's class chose differ
ent ones of us to write. Some of
us received letters from four diff
putting things into practice what
we have learned, but we are also
learning many interesting facts a.
bout Antioch.
We selected the Kimball School
because Mr.. Wilkinson is Mrs.
Domke's brother. He has been
teaching in California for five
years.
For a week in Arithmetic we
have been studying what the parts
of a fraction mean. We can now
add like" fractions with no
carrying required.
To add like fractions, we add
the numerators and place this
sum over the denominator. We have
worked with mixed numbers also.
This is fun.
When making a fraction kit we
found that cutting out circles is
very difficult. The actual cutting
required our full attention and
careful use of paper and scissors.
In Social Studies we have begun
unit about the people and events
leading to the revolution of the
colonies against England. Many in
teresting facts about Washington
and other leaders of the times
have been learned. 1t is interest
ing to learn that these famous
persons were people like you and
me. We find it hard to wait each
day until it is time for our Social
Studies period.
After reading about some famous
inventors. we made special reports
and prepared bulletin boards a.
bout each person. These reports
were about Orville and Wilbur
Wright. Thomas Edison, Alexand-
er G. Bell, Cyrus Mccormick, Elias
Howe, Robert Fulton, and Samuel
Morse.
Brian Holleger and Chris Lane
made a big model of the Wright
plane from white drinking straws
and straight pins.
Following is a report by Linda
Tingle, student in our class:
One day our class received a
letter from New Philadelphia,
Ohio. When we opened it. we found
il was from girl named Rebecca
Waldo. She was also in the fifth
grade.
In her letter she said that her
class was studying the United
States and its possessions. She al
so said that 1t was class project

Section 3
With Mr.. Winter treating US as
he did this year, the months OF
December, January. and February
could hardly have passed by with
out our talking about the winter
season. In addition to our being
able to play in the snow, we also
enjoyed learning some interesting
facts about the snow.
We learned that snow comes from
the clouds and that it must be
cold to snow-below 80 degrees
Each snowflake that falls has G
points or sides. No two snow
flakes are alike. Each resembles
tiny star. Some snowflakes cling
together and look like tiny puffs-
others fall separately. We made
some paper snowflakes to decorate
our room.
The snow gave us an Opportun-
ity to make snowmen, also, not
only paper snowmen for our room
but real ones as we'll. We also
talked about snow making work
for people. Roads and streets must
be cleaned so that cars and people
can travel. 1t may be difficult for
people and animals to get food
because the streets may be slipp-
cry il not entirely clear of snow
We did an experiment with snow
and water showing what happens
when snow melts. 1t we fill two
containers of the same size-one
with snow, the other with water
and put near heat, we find that
there is not as much water in the
container originally filled with
snow as the container filled with
water. This proves that snow is
lighter than water because of air
between the snowflakes.
Each morning we record the
temperature for that morning. We
have found that the temperature
has usually been below the freez-
ing point-32 degrees. Now it is
beginning to get warmer during
the day.
February. although short
month. is quite a busy month. Our
thoughts turn toward two great
men who were Presidents of ouI
country, George Washington and
Abraham Lincoln. We have read
and written stories about these
men and found out why they were
so great. February also brings
Valentines Day. We had fun max.
ing our valentines and decorating
bags for our valentine cards Or
Valentines Day. our class had (
party. We enjoyed it very much
In Social Living we are now
studying about our universe-th,
sun. moon. and stars. We have
learned that there are nine planet.
Mercury, Venus. Earth. Mars
Jupiter. Saturn. Uranus, Neptune
and Pluto. We know that all o
these planets move AROUND the SUI
which is the center of our uni
verse. The sun controls all oul
planets. The earth is only on,
member of the suns family. A for
ce called gravity is what keep.
the planets in their own orbit Oh

about each of the planets and oul

CARNIVAL

Carnival in st. Thomas, our
Virgin Island Mardi Gras,' is a
grand success! Good Good! Goodt
Timing for same has been sem
sible. Weather has cooperated by
saving blankets of water to fill
cisterns at later date 1--WE hope)
Prices are not excessively ex-
horbitant and festive spirit has hit
the Jackpot
New Orleans once had a SINH
liar situation . Oh, Yes! There
is a modern Mardi Gras still
soundly touted throughout the
nation but it is a far cry
from the carnival spirit of old.
Why has this come to pass?
Firstly, some greedy people en-
visioned an opportunity to reap a
harvest Of pieces of eight and
prices were elevated gradually.
Secondly, when aforementioned
was successful, time allotted for
M.ardi Gras was extended. Third
ly, more price raising was perpe-
trated and further tine extensioI
came into being.
Result of these actions has been
unfavorable. One can become
blase when excessive festivities
are the mode. Only a chosen few
can afford to participate. Business
establishments dealing in down to
earth enterprises feeka pinch due
to absenteeism and the abSentees
'nurt' when it becomes imperative
to pay the butcher, baker and

President, Kennedy directed

Of bringing communications
satellites into full operational
use as soon as possible.
In a letter to Vice President
johnson, who heads the coun-
Gil, Mr.. Kennedy said:
81 am anxious that this new
technology be applied to serve
the rapidly expanding commu-
nications needs Of this and
other nations on a global ba-
sis, giving particular attention
to those of this hemisphere and
newly developing 6 nations
throughout the world.
"Such communication needs
include both governmental and
nongovernmental requirements.
Throughout this analysis, pub
lie interest objectives should be
given the highest priority"
The President said policy
proposals should include rec
concentrations, not only as to
the nature and diversity Of
ownership and operation Of
communications systems. but
also proposed detectives.
Mr.. Kennedy requested rec
concentrations from the Vice
President "juSt as promptly as
possible" He said research and
development should proceed at
an accelerated pace while the
study is in progress.

man student who dared inter-
pret history as the Republicans
did would funk the course.
Their deliberate atttemps to
give the impression that Presi-
dent Roosevelt negotiated de-
featS for the United States at
the wartime conferences, by To-
cusing on but a few Of 900 pages
Of documents, by selecting q
handful Of phrases from a half
million words, represents ques-

outright distortion Of history, -
the Senator said.
G. o. p. Charges Hit
Senator MCGEE hit also at
the committees charge that
Mr.. Roosevelt gave away"
Poland and made a secret deal
with Chang Kai-shek over
FormoSa, and said such phrases
18 years after the conferences
can cause resentment in such
friendly countries as England,
France. Germany and India"
Had the Soviet government
undertaken to perform this
hatchet job on our ties with
our allies we could at least
consider the source" Senator
MCGEE declared. But for it to
come from one of our political
parties is an action of the
gravest sort, and I am conf
dent responsible Republican
leaders will be equally con-
cerned with this shoddy effort. -
As for the Judgment Of his
tory concerning the confer
ences, Senator MCGEE said:
Chang was kept in the war;
Russia and the United States
closed the ring around Ger
many. The prime purpose Of
the meetings were achieved
with overwhelming success.
This simple truth stands in
stark contrast to the q. o. P.
