PRIMARY ROOM
GAY WITH COLOR
April showers have brought forth
May flowers in the primary room,
which presents a very gay and festive
appearance, a beautiful picture with
cut out flowers and bouquets of daisies
and daffodils, the work of little fing
ers has giown from day to day. A
lovely green lawn with beautiful t low
er beds and a little girl watering the
flowers; an apple tree in blossom, a
bird house and other things have ap
peared-—we wonder what will appear
next.

NOTES
Three new pupils entered school last
week, Walter and Bernard McDonald
and Lawrence Sorenson. The McDon
ald boys have attended school here
before but have been out for a year.
While gone they attended St. Martin’s
College in Seattle. Lawrence comes
from Enumelaw, W’ash.
The school will take part in the
Memorial day exercises under the
auspices of the Spanish War \ eterans.
W'e have a very ambitious* pupil in
the high school, Florence Van (iilder,
who is raising a garden in two cof
fee cans. Ragna Johnson is the only
other high school pupil who has a
garden.
—6—
The school has had several visitors
this week, among whom are Mrs. Kay,
Mr. Munro and Miss Boyle, a teacher
from Douglas.
— —
The pupils are practicing a tlag
drill this week for Memorial day. Miss
Ballaine is playing for the drill.
The flag which the Woman’s club
is going to present to the school has
arrived and will be raised on Memorial
day.
Marble playing is the amusement
at present and all we now hear is
shoot ’em, emmys, dough babies,
agates and other marble lingo. All
have the ambition of being cham
pions, but so far Joe Bradshaw and
Robert Mullin are the crack shots and
they’re the envy of all.
Little Ellva Peterson was a visitor
in Miss Root’s room this week.

Tougher Than Steel! 1
That’s how tough the soles on these “Hipress” hoots
and shoes are!
In gold mines and coal mines from frigid Alaska to
sunny Arizona, miners are every day proving that the soles
on “Hipress” boots and shoes actually outwear steel.
They Ve absolutely put an
end to hob-nailed soles.
What is this footwear mate
rial that out-wears steel? It's
Goodrich Automobile Tire
Rubber—far famed as the long
est wearing, strongest material
ever invented.
Every “Hipress” boot or
shoe is just One Solid Piece of
this rubber—Molded, not stuck
together layer by layer—to fit
your foot. No cracks—no peel
ing—no leaks—solid comfort!
That’s the kind of a boot
for your work, Mr. Miner.
Accept no substitute. Insist
upon genuine “Hipress” —
look for the "Red Tine’round
the Top.”
