SCHOOL NOTES
Marion Wills— Reporter
Leonard Bren wick
I flew from Nortn and South
America to the Desert of Sahara,
in their place there is but little
rain during a part of the year, j
All around it is dry sand, but it
is spotted here and there with
small bunches of grass.
Besides the grass eating an
imals, there are hyenas, jackals
and leopards in such parts of
the desert,and now and then we
may see a lion.
I saw sheep and goats that
were grazing. L saw a dark skiun
«>d man watching the flocks.
He used a camel for a riding hor
se,
1 saw the children helping
their father drive the sheep and
goats into a fence..
Hud Seltonreich
From the hot lands I flew to
the Indians. I saw wig wo ms
where people live. They don’t
have guns like we have. They
shoot with a how and arrow.
They put feathers in the
hack of their heads. They have
pants with feathess in them.
They like bright colored beads.
Red is their b* M color.
They -war moccasins so
they don’t make any noise when
they go thru the woods. They
carry their babies on their backs.
They carry them all around w ith
them.
When babies are small they
are taught to shoot with a bow
and arrow. They shoot almost
all their game they eat. They are
good shots with bow and arrow.

l am leaving the hot land to
ily to North and South America
where the Indians are. The Ind
ians clo not have houses like we
do, they use wigwams made o i
sticks and skins.
They name their children
after the animals, such as Little
Wolf, Humming Bird and Rabbit.
The children are good looking.
They have high cheek bones and
long noses.
They carry their babies in a
cradle on their backs. Their toys
are made of wood They have
bows and arrows, popguns, cops
and whipping tops.
They play shinny and kick
ing balls. I saw some dolls. They
are different from ours because
th* y are made of wood and their
hair is made of fur. it has some
feathers in the back of the head.
It has a rabbit skin over the
doll’s shoulder.

I went away ftom the hot
lands and flew to North and Sou
th America. I saw some Indian
boys and girls. They have dark
red skin, aim their hai r is coarse
and black.
They have very black sharp
eyes, and they are named after
birds and animals. They eat fish,
bear, moose and rabbits. They
also eat lots of berries.
They cook their food over a
camp fire. On rainy days they
cook their meals over the fire pit
in the centre of the tent. The ten
! ts were poles tied together with
hide strings and skins thro wed
over the tents.
The Indian babies are carried
in a bag fastened to a frame work
and it has beads on it to make it
pretty. An Indian girl showed me
her doll. 11 is cutout of wood, and
a face painted on it. Its clothes
area rabbit sain tied over the
doll’s shoulders. Its hair is made
of fur and there are some featli
' ers at the back of its head.
