BASKETBALL SCORE BOARD
Winona Hall is off to a good start
this year. You can drop in any time
of the day and find the building in
tip-top shape.
Congratulations to Loretta Hawk
and her Unit VI for having won the
Unit Award trip, twice. Hey! Unit I,
are you gain gto let them win again?
The kitchenette in Winona has
some brand new aluminum pots and
pans purchased from the Candy
sales. Also the dinette has new cur
tains. We are very glad to get this
new equipment. Leora and Donna
gave it a thorough housecleaning
and now it is being checked out
many times a day during our free
time.
The Winona hall girls are looking
forward to our Open House next
month, which we usually have on
February 22 each year. All Units
pitch in and clean certain assign
ments given, and after it is all done,
naturally we will all feel proud to
have everyone drop in.
We are sorry to have one of our
girls, Lucille Sampson, leave us. We
surely have enjoyed her stay.
The second week in January, six
House Councillors attended a joint
meeting with six McNary hall boys;
Mr. Kelley, supt., Mrs. Brannon,
principal, Mr. Hudson, boys adviser.
We regret to say Miss Challis, girls'
adviser, couldn't attend the meeting,
but it was just to get acquainted.
The meeting was held at the high
school building.
On the second Monday of Decem
ber, Dr. Stone and Mrs. Seawright,
with some assistance, gave McBride
hall girls a party. It was enjoyed by
all. For entertainment a girl from
Keizer played her accordion.
The news was gathered and writ
ten by two Councillors of Winona
hall—Georgiana Young of Unit I and
Ernestine Lane of Unit II. Next month
will be Helen George of Unit III and
Agnes Tahkeal of Unit IV.
Bye-bye kids, until next month.

FOURTH GRADE VIEWS
ON CHRISTMAS DAY
I had fun on Christmas day. I got
all the things that I wanted. I got a
doll and a ring and a pair of errings,
and o pair of skates. I got some jacks
too. I got two color books and cray
ons. Daddy and Mom came up and
took us to town. I like it up here in
Chemawa. We have fun. At school
we read and some times work in our
note books.—Marietta Curl.
OUR CHART
We have a chart on the wall in
the fourth grade. The teacher checks
in the morning when we come to
school. She checks our shoes, our
teeth, our arms, finger nails, and
hair. If you have dirty arms she will
make you wash them. And if you
have dirty nails she will make you
clean them. And at the end of the
month the teacher will add the points
and whoever has one hundred and
seventy-five points will ge a certifi
cate —Irvin Lewis.

pairing the farm machinery and get

we study about the parts of the dif

VISIT WASHINGTON, D. C.
Mr. and Mrs. A. I. O'Reilly recent
ly returned from Washington, D. C.,
where they spent the holiday season
with their son. The trip was made by
plane and required only ten and a
half hours, the average speed of the
plane being between 300 and 350
miles per hour. Due to stormy condi
tions it was necessary to fly above
the clouds, between 20,000 and
25,000 feet altitude, so very little of
the earth below was seen.
During their stay in Washington,
Mr. O'Reilly took advantage of the
opportunity to gather information
about the early history of our coun
try and its people. He brought back
many pictures and pamphlets of
historic places, among them being
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier,
Washington's home, Lee's home, Lin
coln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial,
Smithsonian Institute, and the Penta
gon building.
Mr. O'Reilly has given a talk to
each of his agriculture classes on
'Our Capital and Its History "
Freda Bent, senior at Chemawa,
enjoyed a visit from her sister, Miss
Edna Bent. Miss Bent is employed
by the army at Ft. Lewis, Washing
ton, and is now on a ninety day
leave. From Chemawa she plans to
go to Vancouver, Washington
