I ROOMS HAVING HIGHEST ATTENDANCE By Mildred Gentry Mrs. Lelia Axley has highest attendance 97.8 with only 15 absences. Miss Stillwell, Miss Mayfield second, having 95.7 percent. By Mildred Gentry Last week the number of pupils in this school unit was checked for the vaccinating of typhoid fever. It | shows that over half of the pupils have not been vaccinated this report did not include the school at Grape Creek where only three out of an enrollment of 107. Texanna where only one student had been vaccinated. This is a dangerous situation, should an epidemic start. There is nothing that could prevent a large number of deaths.

SEVENTH GRADE The seventh grade has just completed a unit of study on Brazil and her two small neighbors, Paraguay and Uruguay. We first found out all we could about these three countries by reading maps and charts, and then we raised some problems which were: . What are the resources of Brazil and what use fc being made of them? 2. Why have they not been used to greater extent? 3. What kinds of work will aid in the future development of Brazil? Through our reading we found Brazil to be a vast country witji valuable resources, but backward in world trade. Some of the reasons J for this have to do with her latitude, poor transportation, and racial difficulties. Ninth Grade Biology Class Rv DaratVi.. T ol>? .. y The Biology classes have just completed a unit dealing with our friends | and foes among the insect world.} For the structure of insects the grasshopper was used and for several days they were very much in evidence around the school.
