WINS SEWING HONOR Florence Hester, Warren School Girl, Is Best. Miss Florence Hester, 14-year-old Warren Central high school girl, has n ouse whatever for Paris de- : signers, dressmakers and all the others things the French have invented to ruin papa's pocketbook when the better half wants something new to wear to a party. When Miss Hester wants anew dress for a party, anew outfit to go some place, or anything else new in the millinery line, she gets it and doesn’t have to look around or do the slightest bit of window shopping. She thinks a moment, decides what she would look best in, and then makes it herself. Miss Hester is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roy J. Hester, Stop 2 road, and was judged to be the best in the sewing contest held among Marion count 4H Club girls. PICK CONVENTION CITY Templars to Meet in Evansville in 1930.

SCHOOL 3,1 HAS NOVEL IDEAS TO AID IN LESSONS Unusual System Bringing Splendid Results in Pupils' Work. With its motto. “True Education , Takes Its Keynote from the Life World,” School 33 is attempting to carry on several purposeful activities in connection with the regular daily lessons. Teachers say the plan is helping the children of all grades I to form their own aims in life. A few of the projects under way are a circus, with its tent, wild animals and clowns, this project being a great favorite with the primary : grades. Pillows made of bogus paper, I stuffed with folded newspapers, dec- | orated with wood block designs, and I overcast with bright colored warp ! are furnishing work for members of | the second grade. Japan Is Studied j The story of Pinocchio is supplying material for a five-act motion ' picture. A Japanese village with its queer : people, odd houses, cherry blossoms ! and lanterns is part of the project ■ to study Japan. Scenes from Longfellow's Hia- | watha; inventions and new devices j made by Dick, in "Dick and His I Peaches;” the finding of the Gold ; Bug, and a miniature Alt Hafed’s ; Farm are some of the board pro- | jects of pupils in upper grade reading classes. A Roman street scene is being I worked out by the Latin department. Among the things shown | will be a well, water jugs, men in i togas, women in robes and mantles, | slaves, and horses and chariots. Trace Primitive Life A mathematics class is interested in tracing units and geometric ! forms back to the life needs of | primitive people. Class groups arc ! developing model scenes to represent early shelters built by various j tribes and pioneers of this country. I The models, when completed, will I tell a life story of man’s struggle to find shelter from the cold of the north, the rain and snow of the plains, and the. heat of the tropics. The different activities of the rooms are on exhibition at the school. GEOGRAPHY WORK AiOED Special Reports Are Assigned to Pupils of School 5. Interesting work in geography is being done by the fourth grade pupils of School 5.

Tuesday of each week the facts learned are linked with the slides shown by the teachers. These slides are explained by the pupils. This is followed by a true—false test.
