CHERRYVILLE SCHOOL NEWS ELEMENTARY I SCHOOL NEWS MRS. SELLfeY'S 6th Grade Our study of the Low Coun tries has been so interesting that we are almost sorry to leave them. Each of us made a book about these countries in which we put stories, pictures, songs, facts and news clippings. We are proud of our colorful books! Julia Papot brougt us some real Dutch GingerbVead that was actually made in Holland. We like it, although it is much more spicy than our gingerbread. Last Friday the fourth grades came to our room to see our work. On our exhibit table we had dolls dressed in native cos tumes, a pipe from Marken, Hol land, a vase made in Delft, gin gerbread from Holland and some Putter and cheese. Several mem bers of our class gave interesting Teports on the life custom and work of the people of the T ow Countries. We like to'study geography this way and wish we had time to study all the countries by this method. Reporter, Jerry Hoyle MISS WHITE'S 6th Grade Last Friday Hetty McNeely had her tonsils removed. We are very glad that Betty is recovering from the operation and we hope that she will soon be in school a gain. New captains were elected last week for our teams in spelling. They are: Dortha Dease anrTJack ie duffie. Linda Quickel and Har old Goins were the winning mem bers of the team. Our Unwelcomed Visitor* Last week we had unwelcomed visitors, the termites. They en tered our room through a hole under the bookcase. We sent for chemicals to kill the insects. Here are some of the things we have learned about termites since they visited us. They are insects that live in colonies. The mem bers of the colony are divided in to four casts or classes. The king and queen make up the first cast. The soldiers guard the colony. The workers gather the food. The soldiers and workers are blind. In case the king and queen die, the nymphs take over the job of reproducing. Their chief food is wood. Wood also serves for their homes. The termites that visited us were the adult with wings. They lose their wings in a day. MISS WORKMAN S 6th Grade We enjoyed studying about black books and the first printing presses, in our history to day. At art period we cut block prints for j painting.

We are look ing forward in seeing an Easter program to be given by Mrs. Por ter's fifth grade. MRS. KARR BEAMS’ 4th Grade W(e have bten having such good attendance in our cla^s. We have had only one absence in the past America’s lowest priced low-friction SIX ! s FORD’S NEty I-BLOC.K SIX IS THE MOST MODERN SIX IN THE | INDUSTRY. . . THE ONLY LOW-FRICTION SIX IN ITS FIELD! More folks are swinging to Ford's 115-h.p. I-block Six because they're getting the mor-t modern six in the industry. Ford’s • short-stroke, low-friction design means less gas waste, less wear and longer engine lile. The extra-deep, "I-shaped” block means a more rigid, quieter engine. And the new high-turbulence combustion chambers, and Ford’s Automatic Power Pilot, bring you even more "GO” per gallon. •ONLY FORD OFFERS BOTH A V-8 AND SIX IN THE [LOW-PRICE^FIELDI] Ford is still the only low-priced car to bring you V-8 power. And this year, Ford’s Y-block V-8, with its new deep-blook, low-friction design, is the most modern "eight” in the industry. Both new Ford engines are available with Fordomatic,* Overdrive* or Conventional Drive—the s finest choice of drives in the low-prioe field. ' j *at extra cost I HERE’S WHAT FORD’S LOW-FRICTION DESIGN MEANS' TO YOU LONGER ENGINE LIFE. Both new Ford engines are of short-stroke design. This means pistons travel less distance. Naturally, there is less friction and less wear. In both engines overhead valves have a free-turning feature which allows them to rotate to cut down wear. MORE POWER. Because there is less fric tion to overcome in moving pistons up and down, there is more energy to move the car. And because combustion chambers are wedge-shaped, fuel burns more completely ... for even more power. MORE "GO” PER GALLON. Ford engines also bring you the additional savings of the Automatic Power Pilot which squeezes the last ounce of power out of every drop of gas. You won’t find any of the modern advances on this page in any other low-priced car. . Worth more when you buy it , i a worth more when you sell it! ■% *o.A.r.
