A TRIP TO INDIAN CAMP Once, when I was spending the day with my cousin at Lake Toxaway her father took us to see a place known as Indian Camp, which was about 2 or 3 miles from her home. The road was very steep and narrow and fill ed with rocks. We passed a large rock near the road known as rattlesnake rock, where the snakes raise their young. We did not see any snakes however. At last we came to the Indian Camp, so called because the Indians made their camp there hundreds of years ago. They hunted and fished. It is a level field of about three or four acres. We found lots of arrow heads of white flint, also some of a strange dark colored rock that I had never seen before. The field is sur rounded by high mountains. It was Is beautiful place .pod I do"?not w (ra ider that the Indiana liked the caiap there. LUCILLE GALLOWAY, Sixth Grade. TREES ARE VALUABLE h Tre&a are not protty ill tlie wlater i when their leaves have all fallen off, ' but when spring' comes, new leaves | come back on the trees. i Trees are very useful. They make jgx>od homes for birds, squirrels, and j lots of other animals. They make 'shade for the animals who live in the I woods. i Some are rubber trees. Men drain i the juice out of them, then it is j ;aken to factories and made into rub ! ber, balls, innertubes, casings, and J many other things. | The pine trees are cut down, taken : to the paper mills, and made into paper. Other trees are cut down and hauled to the sawmills and made in to lumber. Then the people buy the "nmher and make furniture and houses. CLAUDE RICE Fifth Grade. AN EXPERIENCE WITH A RAT One day I saw a rat asleep in the sawdust over the bankhouse. I called daddy, and he shot the rat. I could not reach it, so I called my cat. The rat was so big the cat could not get it. so I called my dogs. Dogs can not climb walls: so I did not get the rat down. A. P. BELL, Jr. Fifth Grade. FAST FLY1N& PIGEONS Pigeons do not hop like robins; they walk and run like chickens. Their feathers and tails are long. Their wings are long, strong, and pointed, giving them the power of swift and continued flight. Their color is blue, green, and rose. Pigeons do not drink like birds j and chickens. They put their bills in-] to the water and draw up their drink ! as horses and cows do. They have an i odd way of feeding their young. In j the pigeon's throat is a gland which ; produces a milky fluid; this milk is j dropped into the bills of the two lit- ! tie ones in the nest during the first twn weeks of their life. Th > pigeon's can fly at the rate of a mile a minute, or as fast as a passenger train. EVA ISRAEL Fifth Grade. OUR CAVE 1 "We are going to study about caves in our readers so my teacher has been telling us about caves and how they are made. She told us about the, largest cave in the world and how she went riding on a river in it. We decided we wanted to make a cave and put it in our room so Looney Sisk made us one. It .is a very good and pretty one. It is made out of white clay, it has a door-way and ha3 only one room. It is made on a plank so it wont tear up. We aie going to fix some more while we are study ing caves. ELIZABETH SISK Fourth Grade. ELECTION OF CLASS OFFICERS On Tuesday, September the seventh the fourth grade decided to elect of ficers.
