Summer, on Tuesday afternoon, for the purpose of reorganizing the so ciety and electing new officers, who will be announced in next week's paper. The hostess for the meet ing was Mrs. Roger Smith. TRAVEL MOTORCADE VISITS HIGHLANDS Much interest was shown by the local residents on the occasion of the visit of the motorcade .through this section on Tuesday of this week. .It is to be regretted that the half-hour scheduled stop in the town nau to pe curtailed on ac count of the lateness of arrival. The Chamber of Commerce had ar ranged a program consisting of a short address of welcome, visits to the Country club and Bear Pen mountain and distribution of local ly grown apples and literature to the visitors. Of this program the address and the tour of Bear Pen mountain had to be canceled. The thanks of the town is due to Mrs. Salinas and Mrs. T. G., Harbison who donated the fine apples, and to the host of citizens who stood ready with their cars to render service during the morning, as also to all who turned out to welcome and mingle with1 the visitors. We feel that despite the shortness of the time spent here that a good impression was created and that much' good will come of the visit in added visitors to this section in coming years. SCHOOL NEWS Under the direction of Miss Veva Howard, the first grade is carrying out a very interesting Mother Goose program. From the study of Mother Goose rhymes a farm project has been-developed in a new a tut interesting way. Mother (Joosc rhyme picture posters with the rhymes printed on cardboard underneath the pictures arc being used for teaching reading and com prehension. Taking the story of the Old Woman In The Shoe as a foundation, the class decided to put all her children on a farm, so the boys, with Billy Waller as general supervisor, have made a farm, after the fashion of the Pilgram farms, in the sand-table, Corrugated paste board cartons were used to make the log. house and other buildings. Pine needles made the shocks of corn and pumpkins were cut , from construction paper. The rail fence, farm animals, a yoke of oxen, and a sled were made of cornstalks. The girls, were more . concerned with . the interior of the home of Mother Goose and have furnished a room with a bqd, a' dresser with a mirror hanging on the wall .over it, a table with chairs, a cradle for smaller dolls, etc. Ethics and social conduct enter into this work, and the unit is rich in arithmetic pos sibilities and offers many oppor tunities for . giving children the real . concept of number meaning. For the study of health habits, the children observe the rules of sani tation in the home and on the farm Each child has his personal towel with a clothespin labeled with his name on a line in the cloak room. The room has a table with Mother Goose story books and pictures which is known as "Fairyland." While sitting at this table enjoy ing the books and pictures, the children imagine stories which are dictated to the teacher during the "conversation period." The best story is chosen, and for seat work the class draws and colors pictures to go with the story for the mak ing of a "picture show." The follow ing story was told to the teacher by faxine Tallev. during the "con servation hour :" Mother Goose's Helpers "Jack-Be-Nimble, run tell Kitty Fisher Little Boy Blue - wants to help hirn look for Higgledy, Fig gley's nest under the haystack. Jack was off with a hop, skip, and jump. He liked to help Mother Goose because she was always kind to him. By and ,by, Kitty Fisher came running up the road with her pock et full of eggs. "I found 10 eggs under the hay stack," said Kitty, as she handed the eggs to Mother Goose. Kitty ran out into the yard. "I have good news for,you," said Kitty. "The threshers are comlnp to-morrow. Mother Goose and the Queen of Hearts are in the kitch en now, cooking lots of good things. Mrs. Pumpkin-Eater is making pumpkin pies." Humpty-Dumpty was so happy he fell off the wall and the Cow Jumped Over The Moon." The first graders particularly en joyed the motion picture which Mr. Summer showed to the school last week, "Who Killed Cock Robin." The next project which will be taken up in the first grade will be the stocking and operation of a grocery store. The first grade will present its chapel program .on - November 19, and the theme will be "Thanks giving." " . ' .
