Mrs. Clayton's 7th grade decided ' their room was too bare, so they got together and appointed a treas urer, then started bringing a nickle apiece so they could get curtains to put over their windows. It took them three weeks, but they finally got enough to buy the curtains. They then appointed three girls to go and select the cretonne. After they had gotten that they appoint ed three girls to make the curtains.
