MR, JOSEPH HILL ENTERTAINS VAILE KIDDIES AT FARM

Forty-two first grade children of Miss Mooney's room were invited to visit Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hill's farm, which is the old Gaar farm, north of town on the New - Paris pike. On the afternoon of Halloween, arter school, everybody was very much excited, looking forward to when it should be time to start. Cars came to take the children to this much thought of place. On arriving after their delightful drive, they enjoyed themselves with the swings, slides, teeters and various other games. After that they were taken to the fine big barn to see the cows milked by electricity. This was a most interesting sight and very different from the old way. The barn was wonderfully clean and very modern, and about fifty cows were there. The children were treated with milk and cookies, and each one was presented with a beautiful rose bud to take home. Joanna, the little daughter, apparently enjoyed it as much as her numerous little guests, who were delighted with their charming lit tle hostess. The class will never forget this happy event, and the kindness of Mr. and Mrs. Hill. Poem Used in Geography Class Thi3 is a little poem that the children of the third grade of Vaile are studying in conection with the history and geography classes: Where we used to walk to school each day, Indiana children used to play. All about our native land Where our shops and houses stand The trees were very tall, And there were no streets at all, Not a church and not a steeple, Only wood and Indian people, i Only wigwams on the ground, And at night bears prowling round. What a different place today, Where we live and work and play. Edith L. Webb, reporter for aile school.

The Trees

I love the trees, With their pretty leaves All golden brown and red. But soon Jack Frost will come along With his blustery, windy, wintery song, And blow them off, And make the trees look dead. It makes me sad, And yet I am glad, Because next spring When the blue birds sing. All earth will call them blessed To 6ee the trees, when they are all dressed, In their beautiful new green leaves. A. T. GOLD STARS FOR HIBBERD GRADE The first grade have rows of words in the backs of their primers. Their teacher has made cards with their names on them, and every time they say a row of words without missing any, their teacher puts a gold star on their card.

PAPER MAKING IS DEMONSTRATED AT SEVASTOPOL CLASS

The fifth grade at Sevastopol, Miss Brumbaugh's room, know a great deal about paper making. Some tlmo ago they wrote to the Bryant paper mills, at Kalamaioo, Mich., for some information about paper making. The Bryant company responded liberally and sent them books and samples of paper in various stages of making. This company receives its pulp in sheet form, and they sent a sheet of it. In Miss Payne'8 office there are several samples of pulp from the spruce chip stage, through the various processes, until it, is ready for the pulp sheet, in which form it reached Sevastopol. It would be interesting for you to see them. Miss Longhead visited this grade at Sevastopol and saw the pulp Bheets. She offered to make some linen paper for them. Thoy were delighted and co-operated wiVh her In bringing the necessary tools. You will be surprised when I tell you what they used. Miss Longhead took a piece of linen and boiled it in a solution of caustic soda and water. This dissolved the fiber of the flax. For a deckle they used a piece of screen, onto which they scooped a bit of the linen pulp, and pressed this be- , tween sheets of paper. This, after being peeled off the screen, was In the form ot a rough sheet. They used a clothes wringer for a paper roller, and an electric iron for heat and pressure. They tinted the pulp while wet, and the final result was a sheet of beautifully colored paper. BAXTER ORCHESTRA PRACTICE TUESDAY The Baxter school orchestra had practice Tuesday.
