Eskimo Poem,
 Arctic Christmas
By Howard WeyahOk

ny hOWarO WcyanOk When Christmas Day comes nigh Deep in Arctic country, Hearts are filled with hope, Kind people even kinder, Smiles brighter-from the heart, Nice children even nicer They want to please their mother. They want to please their father, They want to be good in Santa's
 eyes. Mother with warmest feelings Is busy with her fingers Making nice looking parkas: One for father, one for son, And one for the little girl. Mother is making fancy mukluks too For everyone in her house. She is happy in her work Because in her heart She loves her own.
 And father, in his own way, Is thinking nice things for Christ
 mas. Praying each morning, earnestly, To get the caribou, bear, or fox, So he can take his share Proudly to the meeting hall Where there will be a feast For all the village people. Yes, deep in Arctic country, Kind people even kinder, Who deeply love their God, Love Him, yet even more. And on the day of His Sons birth They kneel before the altar, To honor their beloved Saviour Who came on Christmas Day. -9

Milford High School Students
Successful in College
First Semester grades of 56 Mil
ford High School students now at

Atkinson, High School Principal.
Twenty percent of these students
made the Deans List in their re-

quail significance is the fact that
only 3.6% of the group was drop
ped due to academic difficulties.
According to University of Della
ware statistics, the attritiOn rate in
all classes has ranged from 5.5 to
73o. The drop-out rate for fresh

The Spring Square-Dance Festi-
val, sponsored by the Washington
Area Square-Dancers Cooperative
Association, was again tremen-
dOus success. The Third Annual,
held at the Sheraton-Park Hotel on
March s, 9, and 10, was beautifully
managed from start to finish. Over
5000 dancers wandered from ball
room to ballroom amid lovely
spring-like decorations. Officers Of
WASCA and their Committees out
did themselves to make the best
one ever Six National callers
Gotcher, Kronenberger, Lewis, Le-

gave forth with such outstanding
calling that the crowd was more
than pleased Three ROund-Dance
couples, Turner'S, Smiths, Hamil-
tons, had a full time program of
round dancing that would be diff

and leaders helped provide low-lev-
ell, intermediate, and high level
calling to the point where every
one could find the type of dane
ing most suited to his needs.
Most important, everyone there
had the opportunity to visit old
friends not seen for awhile. dance
with and make new friends. The
fun and fellowship derived still
remain the outstanding features of
an affair of this type.
1t was wonderful to see new
people just out of classes trying
their first really ''big" affair. A

including the Holloways and the

come under the Executive Pay
Act. The top pay for super
