HIGH SCHOOL
The student body held a little
election of their own to see how
their vote would compare with
that of the town. It was discov
ered that all the condidates elect
ed were the same except for the
member of the school board.
The staff of the “North Star”
held a meeting on Tuesday after
noon to discuss plans for the final
issue of the paper.
GRADES ONE AND TWO
Another week has gone and
again we have no absent marks.
We hope we can keep up this line
record.
Those of us who had a positive
reaction to the Patch test were
taken out to the Army post to
have our chests x-rayed.
We are making seals, bears and
kayaks out of the real clay so that
we can have them to keep.
The second grade are finishing
two readers this week and will
begin new ones.
GRADES THREE AND FOUR
Many visitors came to see the
Holland project last week. Beside
mothers, grandmothers, and neigh
bors, the other grade children and
the high school art class came to
see the project and to hear the
story of Holland.
April offers many new sugges
tions for art, reading, language
and nature study, and the children
have excellent ideas for carrying
them out.
GRADE FIVE
We are working on some letters
and penmanship papers to exhibit
at the Fair. We are also working
on some posters and local scenes, i
We will finish our history books!

ries of My Country’s Growth”1
very much.
We are almost finished with

teacher is reading to us for Recre

GRADE SIX
Our geography travels took us
from Alaska to the Hawaiian Is- ■
lands. We enjoyed our visit to
these tropical islands that produce
so much sugar cane and pineap
ples. Now wc are back to North
America visiting our neighboring
country, Canada. We find this
country has a greater area than
the United States, but its popula
tion is less than one tenth as great.
Its principal industries are agri
culture, lumbering and inning.
We are busy making health
posters. Each one is working out
a different idea and we expect to
have some good ones.
Our nasturtium plants are grow
ing. The morning glory seed did
not do so well, we will try again.
