SCHOOLNOTES
(Continued from Page Six)
One of the boys said he thought
that the birds were piggish.
Do you think so? I don’t.
This morning when I was washing
my teeth I saw a bird.
It was all blue with a circle around
its neck.
He was on a twig, and from that
twig he flew straight toward our
porch.
Another bird I have seen was a
M smaller bird than that.
He had a little bit of white over his
eye.
His tail was blue, and it looked as
i# he had a little bit of green mixed
in with the blue.
(Nancy Council)
Miss Kolbenson is our teacher.
She got a big piece of suet.
We put the suet on a tree, and the
birds ate it.
That is why we call it our bird
feast.
The birds like suet.
(Jack Erussard)
We put some suet on two trees, and
the birds are having a feast.
I saw a red and green and yellow
bird.
We give the birds suet and they
like it.
Then they like us and come and
sing for us to give them more.
I like birds.
One bird that comes around does
not know if he likes suet or not. He
just gobbles it down like some meat
and then sings, and then takes a bite
of suet again.
(Paul Bloedhorn)
We put some suet in the tree.
The birds eat suet.
It is fat off meat.
We put it on a tree and the birds
come and eat it.
There is a bird named the crossbill.
He is a cousin of the parrot.

He eats our suet and likes it.
He is a good friend of ours.
* He will sing to us.

Extract from a Sammy’s letter to
his mother: "I am sitting in the Y.

ing in my uniform.” Valdez Greenig
came to visit us Thursday afternoon.
Valdez was in the third grade until
the middle of the year, when she had
to stop on account of bad health.—Sa
die Pratt.
Last week on Friday morning we
t
planted nasturtium seeds. We
brought our own seeds and planted
them in cans. We all planted them
! together and are waiting to see whose
come up first. We put a label on each
can. It read as follows: Our name,
the kind of seeds, date, and number of
| seeds. We also planted beans on cot
ton to watch them grow. Some of
them have already opened. Our nas
turtiums are still under the ground.—
Verla Greenig.
In Room 2 we had our final test in
geography. Miss Keever just had a

Talk?” We are learning some of the
American fojk songs. Those already
learned are :“Home, Sweet Home,”
“My Old Kentucky Home,” “Suwanee
River,” “Dixie” and “My Bonnie Lies

The boys in the drum corps have
their drums and have had three les
sons on them. They are doing fine.
First Boy: “My father is a grand
artist. With a few strokes of a pen
cil he can change a laughing fact into
a sorrowful one.” Second Boy: “So
can mine; but he uses a stick.”—
George Dooley.
I went to visit Mrs. Cohrs Monday
after school. I wanted to go through
the alley instead of going through
the workshop of Mr. Cohrs. As I was
going through the alley I stepped on
some slippery ice and slipped down
and got the back of my coat all dirty.
But I didn’t mind it. I got up and went
to her house. When I started to go
home I turned my back against the
door, and she didn’t know.—Mary
Scott.
Miss Edelbrook was reading from
our history. She came to the word
Satan. Benjamin raised his hand.
“Miss Edelbrock, isn’t that word
‘sateen’?” We think Benjamin would
make a poor dry goods man. The Pep
per books, by Margaret Sidney, were
; brought to Room 2 from upstairs. Sev
| eral other books were brought down
also. Buster: “Miss White, you
would think that when you say some
one lives in Greece it sounds like he
lives in grease you cook with.”—Helen
Pratt.

This is Mother’s Day.
And hearts in many lands with tender
memories stir
As grateful memories now are paid to
her.
Within the home her light has bright
est shone—
Within the home her worth has been
known.
Yet it was Mother, I would have you
clearly see,
Helped bring the world to peace and
liberty.
There is one, just only one,
On earth there is no other.
In Heaven a noble work was done
When God gave man a Mother.

It’s Time to
Change
To understand the comfort of good Under
wear a man must feel the uplift of Under
wear that fits because it’s cut right. It i
m must fit snugly but not too much so, and [
| the lines on which it is cut should conform
jf to the natural lines of the figure.
| These medium-weight Union Suits have f
I no equal for early spring comfort for body
| and mind. They’ll wear without wearing
out before you’re ready to change to the j
hot-weather “athletics.” The time to
B change is now.
