THE KIND OF BOOKS WE
SHOULD HAVE IN OUR
LIBRARY
When we are planning to have a
ibrary, we should think about the
<ind of books we want to have in it.
In a library we should have books
hat will suit th<r minds of all dif
erent ages. We ought to have
:ooks which we can get thought out
Our books should influence in
he right way. They should give
»ood morals. Besides fiction, we
ivant books such as History, Geog
raphy, dictionaries and encyclopedias,
Yom which we may know more of
■ur forefathers and gain world
knowledge.
Everyone is hoping to get tnese
ypes of books in our library.
—Janet Jenkins
GIRLS SPORTS
The 7A girls have been playing
basketball for two months. Although
there are seven or eight on a team
ihey get along very nicely. The
tills named their teams the “Blue
Kagles” and the “Black Hawks”
•>iul the players are ns follows; Blue
Eagles: forwards, Marthif Kate
Moore, Janie Wilson, Mary Helen
Galloway, Violet Sprouse; guards,
Avis Morjis, Annie Neil, Harleston
McIntosh, Agnes Campbell. Black
Hawks: forwards, Annie Morris,
Gwendolyn Morgan Mary Alice Feas
ler, Emma Lou Loftis. guards,
Juanita Freeman, Ruth Case, Pau-.
line Mull, Janet Jenkins.
They do not get to practice often |
oecause there is only one court- j
hat i-an.-he .used, and til.^7A hays j
play half, the time but They Hope to
have the other court fixed soon.
Emma Lou Loftis
CARE FOR A LIBRARY
h' the school has a library, it
hould use it carefully. That is to
-oe “that the bo. ks are nut in the
right place and net torn. There
should be a card file for the cards
and when anyone takes a book out
the library, the card should be
’ out of the book, and placed in J
the file where it belongs. The books]
-diould be kept neatly in place and
should be books of knowledge to]
ur.yono and not trash. A person
who takes a book out should not
keep it over two weeks. You should
take one b'ok out at a time or not
take out any more at a time than
the . librarian tolls you. A few
chairs and a table are necessary
for a library. There are many peo
ple who liko to he bookworms as I j
am. but I don’t blame them, because
library books are not supposed to be
harmful.

OUR SCHOOL LIBRARY
No school can be a real school
without a library. We are fortunate
enough to have a library in our
school, and though it is small, )t
is a great help to us in our studies.
However, we need more books by
standard authors. Also, we need
more reference books of various
kinds, and some of the better maga
zines. Gifts of books and magazines
are aways appreciated by both
pupils and teachers.
We are giad to report that Miss
Ethel McMinn is at present working
as librarian. She is well fitted for
the job, and i3 doing much to im
>rove our library. The Dewey Deci
mal system of classification is used
n our school. In this system books
are arranged on the shelves in
numerical order, and are grouped in
ten general classes. These classes
include books on general topics, on
eligion, fiction, philosophy, science
_*tc. We arc learning by this system
what to read and how to get the
most out of the library.

WINTER
I like winter; do you? I am going
to till you why I like winter.
I like winter because it snows and
you can build snow forts, throw
snowballs and make snow men.
You can have lots of fun when it
snows.
I also like winter because of its
beautiful scenery of trees bending
down with snow and the red roofs
covered with a white blanket of
snow. It is a lot of fun to watch the
little children skate on the snow
and how warm they look with their
mittens, caps, coats shoes and
stockings and snow falling all
around. It is not only fun to watch
other children play and have a good
time in the snow but it is fun to
get cut in it yourself.
—Lucile Gravely
MRS. JENKINS MAKES TALK
On January 25, Mrs. Frank Jenk
ins came to the Seventh B Grade
and told us about Scotland. She
made a very interesting talk. She
tsld us about the geography and
history of the country and some very
interesting facts about the Scotch
people. We enjoyed her visit and
hope that she will come to see us
again.
—Hazel Michael
WHY W'E SEED MORE ROGER
IS OUR LIBRARY
We need many more books in our
library. We need especially more
reference books because we have so
few' of them now. We need more of
these books because w'e have so many
pupils to use what few bocks we
have that a pupil may get so dis
couraged when he can’t get the book
he wants that he will give up trying
to got it and thus be deprived of
what he otherwise could have had.
We need more books because many
of our books are so torn and
from long usage tl\t they
h
more b ,
the benefit'__
not have books in . ieir homes and
for whom the library will be of
great value.

LITTLE WOMEN
•'Little Women’' was given at the
Clem son Theatre the 29th and :10th
of January, and everyone enjoyed
j it.
I This story was written by Louisa
I May Alcott. It was taken mostly
front her and her sisters’ lives.
I Their experiences were interesting.
Their lather had gene to war and
their mother worked at making
things for the men in the v.ar. It
was in the winter and snow was on
the ground. Three „ of the girls
worked and one went to school.
Their Aunt gave them some money
for Christmas and they bought
their mother Christmas presents.
One of the girls fell in love with a
boy next door. The youngest girl
went to Europe \/tih her Aunt. The
oldest girl went to board with her
mother’s friend. She took care of
the children. She fell in love with a
professor that boarded there. When
she cams home, her sister was sick
and soon after she died. Her mar
ried sister had come home to see
them. Her youngest sister had come
from Eurone. She had gone to get
milk and was coming back when she
ran into the Professor. The maid
opened the doer and let them in
and that was the end.
—Juanita Freeman
LITTLE LORD F AUNT LEROY
The book I like is named Little
Lord F'luntlcroy. The book was
written by Frances Hodgtfon Bur
nett. The character I like in the
book was Cedric, or Lord Fauntn
roy, which he was later called. Ccd
ri's father had died, and he had been
sent away but soon he returned. He
and his mother lived all alone except
for Mary, the cook.
Cedric had some friends and one
was Mr. Hobbs who was the gro
ceryman. Cedric would go see Mr.
Hobbs and sometimes he would tell
him stories. Another friend was
Dick, the bootblack. He was a color
ed man who shineeLjjhoes.
One day while Cedric was at
Mr. Hoods’, a man came to see Mrs.
Errol. His name was Mr. Havis
ham; ho was from England. An
Earl from England had sent him.
The Earl was Cedric’s grandfather.
Cedric’s grandfather wanted him to
come and live with him in his castle.
Later Mrs. Errol decided to let |
Cedric go. Cedric went to tell Mr. j
!< libs and Dick goodbye. They
were sorry to see him go. When1
they were about to leave on the
boat, Dick came up to Cedric and
gav'; him a red handkerchief.
It was eleven days later when
they reached England. The day af
ter they reached England Cedric
went to see the Earl, his grand
father. His grandfather gave him
anything he wanted but. he wanted
nini to forget his mother. He gave
Cedric * room fuli of toys, a pony,
and a lot of other things. Cedric
could go to see his mother every
day. At first the Earl did not like
Mrs. Errol but later he began to
like her. Cedric, or Lord Fauntle
roy, he was called, was to become
the E3rl just as soon as hia grand
father died. Cedric, Mrs. Errol,
and the Earl were all happy because
they were all living at the Earl’s
castle.
If other children read the book,
I think they will agree with me
that he is a very nice boy and an
interesting character.

WHY WE SHOULD HAVE A
LIBRARY 1
Why da you think we should have!
a library?
I think we should have a horary
for us to enjoy reading interesting,
books, and reading books will help!
us to read well in our school stud
ies. It gives U3 information of
things we don’t know about and
things to do. We find books about
what has happened in the past.
Wo need a library in every school.
When we take books out to read,
we must be careful and not handle
I them roughly. We should not turn
pages down or double them up for
book markers. We should get a
piece of paper and slip in the books,
because someone else wants to read
them.
—Catherine Shipman

WINTER
When some winter morning you
wake up and look out of your win
dow and see white snew sparkling
nut everywhere, you think of the fun
to be had and quickly get dressed.
The best part of the winter is
when the big snow comes with a
thin layer of ice over it. Lvery one
is out sliding about on the ice and
having the most fun to be had.
You can get in a sled and go to
some good coasting place and away
you go like a rolling ball, tossing
and rolling about.
When it begins to snow the clouds
are gray and dark. The snow bc
! gins to fall; it is so white it dazzles
Ivour eyes to look at it. It comes
down so fast that you can hardly
see before you. It is great fun to
sit at your window and watch it
snow, but still better to be out in
j it, making snow balls and throwing
them at someone else.
Some dreEd for winter to come
' hut for me it is the greatest fun.

1 WHEN THE WATER PIPES
ARE “BUSTED”
You may talk about the patience it
takes to keep a woman straight.
I When the bed of fine carnations
that she planted by the gate.
Is forever wrecked and ruined by
the dog from up the street
1 Or completely is demolished hy the
children’s playful feet,
But. if you leave it up t • me, 1
would say the woman can be
trusted,
fotfcti-'vfinn still look *a*find
■ when the water pipes are “bust
r ed.’’
: Some women you can make mail
easv while some sm hard to
“rile,”
But this old world ha; few wo
men who greet the plumber with
a smile,
• When the sink trap’s bur-tod open.
, and the bath room flooded, to.-.
’ And the plumber didn’t, get there
at the hour that he was due.
Here’s a fact tn place on file; Any
woman can be trusted.
Who can still produce a smile
when tlw water pine- are “bust
ed!”

FARM QUESTIONS
EuHKBHj
QUESTIONS: What mineral feeds!
are newjssnry in the poultry ra
tions?
ANSWER: The usual mineral
feeds are bone meal, oyster shell orj
ground limestone, Ralt, and grit. The1
bone meal supplies calcium and
phosphorus and builds bone and tls-i
sue. The oyster shell or ground'
limestone is fed lor its high calcium;
content and should be kept before
the laying birds at all times. Salt
is ar. appetizer and renders the
mash more palatable while the grit!
is an aid in grinding the feed. These j
mineral" ere used in building up the
body and keeping it in repair and'
also for the manufacture of eggs.;
QUESTION: How should a home
garden be planned for best results?
ANSWER: Much time and ef
fort can be saved by arranging the
garden in sections or' units. Plant
the perennial crops such as as
paragus and small fruits at one
side where the hotbeds and cold
frames are located. Quick maturing
crops such as garden peas, green
onions and lettuce are planted in
the next section. Early cabbage,
beets, snap beans, and early corn
follow in the next section with
another section set aside for the
main summer crops. Late plantings
should follow each section as the
first crop is harvested.
Never make merchandise of de
pravity .
Too much contentment is as bad
as too little.
