School News


Section 5
Just think The next time we
write a news story we will be in
the second grade. We can see now
how very much we have learned in
the first grade.
We have been studying about the
farm and have learned many things
about our neighbors who work so
hard to provide our food. Some of
the farm stories that were written
by our class members are as fol-
lows:
Baby Ducks
Baby ducks are called ducklings.
Ducklings like to swim. They swim
in ponds with their mother. They
are not very pretty, but they are
cute. Their mother is white. They
are hatched from eggs called duck
eggs. Cathy Plummer
Milking Time
Cows are milked twice each day.
While a COW is waiting to be milk
ed she eats hay. Cows eat green
grass in the fields. A baby COW is
called a calf
We drink the milk that cows
give. 1t is very good for us. 1t
helps us to grow. Brenda Jarman
Little Colts
A colt is a baby horse A colt
has long thin legs. Many colts are
brown and white. They eat grass
and grain. Colts like to run and
play in the fields When colts grow
up, people either ride them or put
them to work. Elrita Annett
We have made booklets about the
farm, drawn pictures, read stories,
and made the farm buildings and
clay animals to put in the display
window in the hall.
We made pretty Mothers Day
cards as a surprise for Mother on
her very special day, and talked
about what we could do to help her.
We will help her every day, not
just on Mothers Day. The cards
were pink and white with a paper
carnation that Mother could wear
on May IS.
We had so much fun at Play Day
last Tuesday. AS you know, we
meet other children and teachers,
and play the games that we have
been learning in Physical Educa-
ton during the year. Many of our
mothers and little brothers and
sisters cane to watch. This year we
did exercises to music and danced
the three folk dances that we had
learned. We had such a nice time
and will be looking forward to
Play Day again next year.
Miss AtZ came to see us on Tues
day and brought some music books
with her We enjoyed reading the
words as we sang. and watching
the notes go up and down on the
staff.
Next Friday we have vacation.
We first graders stay home so that
our teachers can spend the day
with the children who will be in
the first grade next year. We know
that they will like school. They will
like our pretty room and will en-
JOY doing all the nice things that
are part of their first grade.
We are all looking forward to
our summer vacation and to a new
school year next fall We wish
everyone a very happy and safe
summer.

A common practice in
televiSion, that of lip Sync-
ing, may at times be a
bit diSconcerting to the
viewer, but it is a break
for the performer. You
may have noticed a per-
former wind up a fast, tir-
ing d a n C e routine which
would leave an Olympic
distance run ner gaSping
for air like a landlocked
flounder, only to go right
into a closing song with
out missing a breath. Act
ually, this song was pre-
taped a n d the performer
has only to go through the
motions. Often this word
mouthing is something less
than perfect, but it does
provide necessary music
where vocal effort would
otherwise be impossible.
Which reminds us - t
is never impossible to pick
up a budget-balancing TV
buy at THRASHER RADIO
& TV. A new RCA--and
this is just about the best
all around performer at
any price-can be had for
as little as S 1885 and

 The letters. come in all sizes and all flavors. Many are enclosed with Christmas cards. Others don't have any envelopes at all, are just folded pieces of paper on which there are stamps and the address.
 Many times the letters don't have postage at all or have labels taken from medicine bottles Somehow, they travel thousands of miles through the postal system to North Pole.
 Wrote Sunny and Stephan Wilster of Sanford. Florida, T hope you have a good old time at our house, leaving lots of good old presents. We leave a marteenee and crack CTS for you.'

Just Is miles down the Richard son Highway south of Fairbanks is very unusual little town-North Pole, Alaska.
 North Pole is the home of Santa Claus House, 511 Santa Claus Lane.
 The brightly decorated building is general store. Santyland, and US. Post Office. And the proprie- tor of Santa Claus House is Con miller, also the mayor of North Pole.
 In the summer time thousands of tourists from the lower states visit Santa" Miller and as Christmas time approaches each year, he re- ceives and sends thousands of let ters cards and stockings to boys and girls all over the world. Many Calls With the advent of direct-dial long distance telephoning, he has also gotten quite a number of calls from as far away as New York, Flor ida, and California.
 Sometimes. children's parents in the lower states are surprised to learn they have bills as high as $70 made to Santa Claus, at North Pole.
 The population has grown from 100 to 400 people in the past ten years.
 North Pole has a $75,000 school building for grades one through eight, two service stations, laun- drymat. two restaurants, drive-in, telephone exchange. a trading post. doctor, dentist, tavern, and three churches.
 Rudolph Lane
 Many of the streets of North Pole are named for things associated with Christmas. Donner and Dancer streets, for instance. were named after Santa's reindeer. And Rudolph Lane, of course, was named after Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer.
 Yuletide Road
 Yuletide Road runs along the banks of a creek running through North Pole. Tourists can have their cars serviced at Reindeer Service Station. then may take sightseeing drives down Holiday Lane.

Santa Claus Headquarters Al North Pole, Alaska

Tn 1949. Miller owned the Miller Trading Go. of Fairbanks. He trav- eled into the North country trading for furs and other items.
 First Santa
 For one trip during the Christmas season, he donned a red suit and via dog sled, visited number of vil- lages. It was the first time hundreds of children had seen Santa Claus.
 Later Miller became broke and in 1853 moved to North Pole, where only few people lived in a scatter ing of buildings. He cleared place, cut logs, and erected a building which he painted red candy stripe
 A number of native children passed by and shouted out. Hello, Santa Claus and the building was named Santa Claus House."
 While constructing the building, Miller. and his family lived in 8 tent, beside which he built small cache The cache is still standing at 511 Santa Claus Lane.
 Much Mail
 The post office located there has grown by leaps and bounds in re- cent years and probably does more business for it's size than any other in the US. Each year Santa" Mill Ter processes about 100000 letters. At first he handstamped all his mail but recently his correspondence has increased so much that he has installed postage metersv He has also had to employ helpers particularly during the rush Christmas season.
 Santyland
 Next year Miller plans to enlarge Santa Claus House and build a Santyland where he can have dec- orated tree year around, elves and reindeers, where tourists can visit and take photographs.
 To finance the project, Miller has had minted special Santa Claus coins, on sale at Santa Claus House The Santyland will be built from the proceeds
 About a year and half ago, to Santa" Miller and Mrs. Miller there was born a little girl And what did they name her? You guessed it, Merry Christmas"

Now I've seen everything"

Now I've seen everything"
 That was the comment of Santa Con Miller, proprietor of Santa Claus House at North Pole, Alaska
 He had just received a request for million dollars.
 It came on a post card from Ana helm, California. and read: q want $1,000000 in cash for Christmas, ,' and it was signed simply, Joe"
 Santa" Miller said he had re- ceived requests for everything from an elephant to an Aladdin wishing" lamp
 Here are few samples of the thousands of letters he receives each year:
 T am a bad boy. Don't stop at my house this Christmas. OK. O., Ma be next year I might grow up and deserve something. Thanks for nothing. Jimmy SWann, Chicago, Illinois"
 From Turkey, Kentucky:
 Dear Santa Claus: Will you bring me just one present? I know you know the new 10c or Sc store, well, would you get me that 45 gun? Santa, if you can, would you try to make me a holster, please. But, if you can't, it's alright. I'll be good, I promise.

 "The custom has always been to feed anyone who comes to visit, but the most important thing for the Napakiak Eslaimos on Christmas Day, is to go to church and pray to God, thanking Him for everything they had that year."

one would hardly under
stand the way Of life of the
French bourgeois" family If
one doesn't grasp that under
lying some pettiness in daily
behavior regarding money
matters are the sacrifices
they make for keeping a place
in the country.
Such a place is usually in
herited, and it is considered a
sacred duty to pass it to de-
scendants. Big or small, it al
ways represents a drain on
the check book, what with
taxes, roof repairs, leaks in
the plumbing, undermining
the old-fashioned kitchen,
which is not up-to-date
enough for the younger gen.
erations.
Once upon a time, such
work as there was to do on
the old place was left to local
craftsmen, with whom a
rather trying exchange of
correspondence took place in
the winter. Gradually, how
ever. an entirely new situa-
ton emerged from the re-
construction that took place
in the years after the war.
The situation became perma-
lIent with the building boom.
Craftsmen were too busy with
new building to keep their
promises and take small
paying jobs. The owner-the
head of the family, assisted
by his male descendants -
had to cope with this new
situation and to learn the
tricks Of the trade. Now he
devotes part of his vacation
to working on q ladder, re-
pairing cutters, resetting tiles
and cementing old stones.
Nearer Tie
And slowly, the amazing
fact developed that the
French people occupying
country places, whether all
year round or for a few weeks,
are now nearer their Ameri-
can counterparts without
even realizing it. Blue jeans
are included. but left aside
ere the workers cap. dear to
the heart Of the United States
handyman. They enter into
heated discussion with their
visiting friends or neighbcrs
about the comparative merits
of farm tractors, lawn now
ers. power chain saws and
the lihe-over a drink, which
more and more is nothing
else but a whisky and soda.
The workshop. which was
for so long the privileged
sanctuary of the keeper or
gardener, is now their own.
The money they were devot-
ing to fancy shotguns or
hunting gear goes now to
power drills. To complete the
picture. barbecues-owing to
the lack Of servants in many
parts Of the countryside
are mushrooming in every
back and front yard. True.
