FEBRUARY
February is the second month of
the year,
The ground hog makes it very
near.
Sometimes there's an extra day,
. And that is what' the ground
-hog's say.
It is a moth of fun,
In the snow we like to run.
But the cold sniarts the ears,
Thank goodness it is the shortest
month of the year.

The war of 1812 projects
done 'by our class showed good
work on all • of the students'
parts. Two were exceptionally
good. One was a fort built from
wood dThie by Jin Denomy and
Gabriel Kaprzack. 'I'h'e boys have
done a great. of work.
Another good -project was done
bi Paul Cummir is: His project''
consisted - of- a display' of
weapons used in the war of
1812. Four of the „grade eight
girls did `uniforms of he soldiers
of 1812. Others' di essays. Mr.
Morrissey was very pleased.
Because of thea,absence of Mr.
,.Morrissey on Wednesday we had
Mrs. Moerbeek for Composition.
It proved to be very interesting.
We all ...had to..wWe a story on
the longest d'eterl•tion of our
lives. The setting of the story
was a blizzardly day' when
,
SCOOP
visibility was impossible and our
school was our resting place for
the night. All the stories were
very good. All proved that
staying at school over night
would be an uncomfortable day!'

machines' that are. very good.
There are still a few more to be
handed in. Some people handed
in weighing scales, cars, pulleys,
slopes and many other thin s,

Oh I Must Go

Where the rats and mice indeed
they play
And then you hear chubby say
-why! Oh why do here I stay!
Oh

It is prettiest in the month. of
May
Indeed it really hurtsyour eyes
When you see the smelly smoke
rise.
