Main St Moore & Osborne Undertakers I ORIGIN OF THE CONSTITU TIONAL GOVERNMENT In the study of dual government the seventh grade has recently been considering a very important phase in the evolution of government, the origin of constitutional government. The first step toward this form of government began with the sign ng cf the Magna Carta by King ohn, under the pressure of the eople. Another king who began to •eak the laws and customs of the leople, was Charles I. It had been p Hi two hundred years since King ' ohn was forced to sign the charter, iliament drew up the petition of iights, and 'presented it to the ing and was duly signed, thus ith the aid of the executioners ax, reserving the rights of the people. The last king to break the laws f England was James II. He hought he could do as he pleased, ut he made a mistake, for parlia lent sent for William of Orange, iho had married the King’s daugh r. He lauded with an army. The ling’s followers deserted him and ic escaped into Fiance. Then.1 larliament issued one more act [ now a as the Declaration of Rights.; Through those ideas of constitutional 'ovirnment, are the source of the fovernment!. And all over the vorld there still remain only a few utccratic or monarehial govern nents. —Ruby Giazener OXE OF MY GREAT AMBITIONS My ambition is, when I finish: school to be a nurse. Some arc not so very fond of nursing but I have always wanted to be a nurse | md go out in the world to roakEj | people well. Of course I will have ’ to wait a few years to finish school but I don’t mind that. Every onc| should want to help others in cv • cry way they can and nursing is one I of the ways you can help them. First, I will have to learn some of the things you must know before going into the nursing business. One that is most important is that you must know all about medicine. One will have to study for a few- months before you can go on duty. I know t will love being a nurse because .hat has always been my one great ambition. „ , „ Geneva Petit, Grade 7 HORSES A horse is big, A horse pulls a wagon. All horses have four legs.

The sea gives him all I the necessities of his life. | The Eskimos live chiefly in Green land, the islands of the Artie Ocean and Alaska. As a rule they are not tall, but they have broad shoulders and strong muscular arms. Their complexion is a brownish yellow. When a boy is ten years old he i* taught to use the kayak, and fish ing boat. He requires a great deal of training so as to be abe to right himself again after being turned -ver in the sea which ofter happens n the angry waves. The sledge, which is usually Irawn by ten or more dogs is quite as important to the Eskimos as the kayak. A skillful driver seldom1 ever strikes a dog with the whip for when struck, the dog get3 cross and bites his cemrade. The comrade in 'urn bites the next dog, who does he same thing until the whole team is affected. The harness which i* nade of sealskin, also gets in a ter tible tangle on these occasions. In a land of snow and ice there are no trees of which to build houses. But this does not bother the Eskimos. He saws out blocks of ice and piles them up ir. a dome like shape and cements the pieces to gether with snow. In this way ho makes a very comfortable house in which to live. D. H. Winchester, Grade 6, “LITTLE WOM\EN" I “Little Women” is the most in teresting and best known book I have ever read. It tells of the [ heroism of the girls at their home, while their father was at war, and of the good times the pirls had (with their playmate David Law | rence. The most touching incident of the story, was when little Beth died, and of the great chance Amy had when she went to Europe with her nunt. All the girls were very brave and soon they all settied down and were enjoying life. —Ruby Glazener, Grade 7 GOOD ATTENDANCE The sixth grade girlsi have had good attendance, for the last two months. One month we had perfect attendance for the girls. Everyone must come to school every day in order to make good grades. When we miss a day we are one day behind in all our recitations for the month. Our school record doesn’t look so well with absentees and tardies marked against us. We should value good attendance very highly. Idell Conner, Grade 6 HOW TO CARE FOR MY DOG 1 must take good care of my dog it I want him to be well and happy. I must feed him three times a day out of a clean dish.

After one day and night the men slipped upon the Indians and they had to run for their own lives One day while Boone was out hunting the Indians captured him. They took him down to the river and tried to scrub the white out of him. They painted him and he looked like an Indian war rior. They make an attack of the fort where Boone’s family was. He slipped away from the Indians and went to the fort which was about a hundred miles away. When the Indians came they were ready for the war. Boone was the hero of that attack and all of America knows his name.

Vera Gillespie j MY TRIP TO ALASKA As the ship drew up to the wharf at St. Michael, I saw lots of people waiting to greet their relatives and friends. The stores and houses were low and made of wood. After we left the ship we got our baggage and started to a hotel . where we were to spend the night. As we went on through- the streets we saw many dog-sleds in front of stores being loaded with supplies. Stopping at one of the stores we .bought three dog-sleds, a suit of fur clothing for each of us and a large supply of fotd. We were to leave ■the next morning to go up the j Yukon which was frozen over to Fairbanks. This trip was about 1200 ! miles and would take us about .three weeks. j The next morning when I voke | up I heard the drivers hitching up inoon we stepped, built a fire, fed; jour dogs and cooked and ate our dinner. That night after we ate our supper we rolled up in our blankets and most of the party went to. sleep.
