Murray McKay The King and Queen of Hearts From February 5 everyone put one or two hearts in the hearty message box each day. Then on February 12 our teacher opened the box. There were lots of hearty messages in the box. The ones that get the most hear- ty messages or send the most messages would be Kings or Queens. The Queens were Carla Taylor, Lorna Miller, Elizabeth Russell and Julia Brand. The hearty messages weren't valentines. They were if somebody did a good deed then we would send a card to him. The card would say that the deed was very kind or something like that. Mrs. Skillender is going to try to crown everybody before February is over.
