VISITS SEVASTOPOL
Mr. Ratliff visited and told the children of the fourth and fifth grades about the birds. He also told them about his stuffed owls. One interesting thing that he told us was about Bob, his owl. Whenever Mr. Ratliff would go down to feed Bob potatoes he would fly on his arm and dig his claws into the flesh. Mr. Ratliff finally filed his claws down. He also brought some relics, such as Indian beads, tomahawks, and a powder horn carved from a bull's horn which a white man carved a hundred years ago.
