MARG ROGERSON Grade One Teacher A group of enthusiastic pupils from first grade at Air Marshal Hugh Campbell School at Canadian. Forces Base Clinton, accompanied by their teacher, Mrs. Marg Rogerson, and assisted by Mrs, Jane Groves, boarded a bus to take them to a local farm recently. For some pupils, it was their first bus ride, and that alone was a great thrill, but when the bus drove into the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Herb Duizer indescribable expressions of joy brightened all the faces — all but one little girl who couldn't get out of her seat belt. Mr. and Mrs. Duizer and their daughters were on hand to show us the various animals, give the children pony rides and answer the many questions. Entering the barn was somewhat of a surprise to some children. "Look at the floor, and the ceiling, they look dirty," the voices said, although the barn , was very clean. I think they were expecting to see something like their homes. Here they 'saw many young calves at various ages. They were shown where the cows were tied up for milking, the milking machines and the huge tank where the milk is kept. Some children were given a chance to milk a cow that happened to be in the barn because it was sick. One child remarked, "It's sick because look at the bumps on HIS back." None of the children were successful in getting milk — maybe, as one said, because "the bones are too hard to get the milk out." The children were quite surprised when Mr. Duizer told them that a cow has two stomachs and explained to them how they work. "Why do you cut the horns of the cows?" asked one youngster. "So the cows won't fight," said Mr. Duizer. "Some people don't-cut the 4.11adde44 STUDIO S W Pr!•1!itipe ed - • • dings • Children Single or Group Portraits; and Passports 524-8787 118 M.

This was an opportunity for Duizer to shoW the .children how the stable cleaner worked. "What happens when the straw and 'stuff' gets outside the barn?" questioned a frowning fellow, "Where do you think it goes?" asked Mr. Duizer. ' "I think the wind blows it away," was the quick answer, "I'm afraid it's not that easy," said. Mr. Duizer, "We have to load it into a manure spreader • And take it out and put it on the field again to grow more grain to feed the animals." The little fellow still looked puzzled but accepted the explanation. Entering the pig barn there were many "Oh, it smells," and "It stinks," with their fingers pinching their noses. Soon the smell was forgotten and the conversation continued: "The pigs are happy — see their tails are curly." One curious little girl wanted to know why the pigs were all a light pink, except one that had black spots on it. "Well," said Mr. Duizer, "the father was one colour, the mother was the other colour, so the baby pig is a mixture of both colours." "Oh," was the answer. Clutching specimens of hay, straw, corn ensilage and chop, the children were loaded into a tractor-drawn wagon and taken to the pasture field where the milking cows were grazing. kin q FILL CLEAN AS A WHISTLE AS SLICK AS A P/N, /S WHAT FOLKS SA ) WHO HAVE OUR OIL /N Harry Williams 482.6633 CLINTON Distributor for all Shell Oil Products SHELL CHEMICALS "What kind of cows are these?" asked a child, "Holsteins," said Mr. Duizer. In a few minutes their teacher asked them what kind of cows they were. A quick answer came, "holy cows." The bull was given the title of the "mother cow." The happy youngsters were then shown a huge hen house that had 10,000 caged layers. They seemed 'stunned' when they saw so many hens in rows before their eyes. One question asked was; "Flow many eggs does a hen lay in a day?" "An average of five a week," said Mr. Duizer, "two days off like you have two days off from school." One child returning home told her parents that hens have two holidays a week like she has — they don't lay eggs on Saturday, or Sunday, One girl was listening closely to all the questions and answers, then she frowned and asked: "How can the hens keep the eggs warm to make baby chicks when the eggs are all down in a row below the hens?" After saying "goodbyes" and "thank-yous," the children returned to the bus saying, "I Like that man," "I would like to come and see him again," and went back to the classroom listening to "grunting pigs" and "clucking hens" that had been captured on a tape recorder. Apparently this type of teaching is much , more interesting than sitting in the classroom, as not one child had to go to the bathroom — a very Uheamman thhlg for an afterneen. Interest is keen and some mothers have remarked; "The children have talked and talked about what they saw, and are still talking," A trip such as this, is indeed an educational experience inr any child who does not live on a farm, :Clinton •ThwgigY, ,Pctigtp.pr 1.6, 1909. 7 First-graders from CFO Clinton find farm visit fascinating 4 Huron County Board Of Education REQUIRE ONE Custodian For Huron Centennial Public School Duties to commence November 3rd, 1969.
