ihe past five years, slopped in Med
f o rd today en route to Crater Lake
after a vacation trip which has in
cluded several days at Yosemlte
national park, During the summer
she also climbed Mt. Lassen and
visited other points of interest in
California and Oregon.
"We have flOO students at Couch,
including the first eisht grades.
AVI thin the last two years the pla
toon system has been Inaugurated
In our school with very satisfactory
results," the teacher stated this
morning in discussing her work.
One of the most interesting
phases of the system has been the
addition of a nature study room
where a regular menagerie is main
tained. Turtles, fish, lizards, owls
and various varieties of birds, flow
ers and plants of all kinds, are
only a few of the things which the
students have collected and now
can-fully feed and take care of.
Miss a t a u f f e r descrl.ed the
school's auditorium which is used
alternately by first, one grade and
then another for the pirrpose of
staging plays, under their own di
rection, and the presenting of pro
grams. lSvch the youngest pupils
hold business meetings and have
an organization with a president
at the head, she said.

THO LITTLE KNOWN

a grade until at the springs the air
Is eooJ and refreshing as If it
might come from the near vicinity
of snow. . Several camps were
passed where folks in cabins or
tents are making their homes
while reaping the benefits of the
medicinal waters. Heskles the min
eral waters there are also several
cold water springs surrounding the
camp where fresh water may be
enjoyed for cooking or drinking
purposes.
Several California parties have
Just returned to their homes after
a six weeks stay nt the springs and
were so much improved by the use
of the water that they considered
themselves cured. Mr. Ferguson,
on being asked why he did not
advertise his spring more, replied
that the springs advertised them
selves through those who reaped
their benefits and were known of
In cities as far us New York.
