CHILD’S PLAY
Making Paper Indian
For Holiday Decorating
Much of the menu that is a
traditional part of Thanksgiv
ing feasting dates back to the
earliest beginnings of this fa
vorite national holiday.
The native Americans gave
the white man most important
gifts when they introduced so
many new foods. It was not
surprising that the New World
Pilgrims celebrated their first
Thanksgiving by eating tur
key, a fowl previously un
known to Europeans.
The Indians added a lot of
other foods now taken for
granted in modern eating.
Imagine not knowing about
corn, sweet potatoes, beans,
squash, tomatoes or green
peppers. The white man origi
nally knew nothing of pea
nuts, maple sugar, chocolate
or chewing gum. The intro
duction of tobacco perhaps
had mixed blassings by to
day’s standards, but Indians
deserve full credit for making
such treats available as clam
bakes, corn roasts and pop
corn.
Since Thanksgiving is such
a special holiday, it’s fun to
decorate the house and table
and provide an appropriate
theme for the day’s big meal.
The technique of cut-and
paste makes it easy for you to
have paper Indians for just
such a purpose.
The accompanying illustra
tion suggests the type of war
rior and maid you can create.
Start with two sheets of 9-by
-12-inch construction paper
folded lengthwise to 4 and a
half by 12 inches for each.
Round one end for the head
and draw features and hair
with a dark felt pen or crayon.
On one figure cut out a thin
center strip for pants. Leave
the bottom of the other which
will become a skirt. Then
fringe both so they will look
like buckskin.
Then, from another sheet of
paper, nine inches square, cut
diagonally for two triangles.
When fringed, folded and
pasted into place, will become

Harry had always been a sleepy-head. But his teacher
noticed that the yawns and drooping eyelids were lasting well
into the afternoon and there were times when her 10-year-old
pupil actually fell asleep. The teacher began to investigate and
discovered Harry sniffing gasoline.
A Department of Human Resources counselor was called in
and found that Harry’s homelife was miserable. The mother
was divorced from the father, who was in prison for murder.
Both mother and son had emotional problems. Harry and his
mother began seeking psychiatric help and during therapy
Harry expressed a wish for a “man friend,’’ someone who
could be a substitute father. A iocal legislative representative
volunteered to be a big brother and Marry was delighted. Dur
ing the past year his emotional stale has improved immensely
and he no longer sees the psychiatrist. He says his gasoline
sniffing days are over and his teacher had noted that he now
takes an interest in ciasswork. His grades have improved. So

Colts Finish With Wins
By JERRY SAMPLES
Both Colt teams won their
last game Monday night to
post an 8-1-0 record; the best
record of all area youth
teams.
The 85 lb. Colts had little
trouble beating the Packers
19-0. Wade Wilson scored first
to give the Colts a 7-0 edge the
first half. Charles Gunter got
two touchdowns in the last
half while the Packers could
never threaten. Our thanks to
coaches Ed Ficken and Joe
Bannister for an exciting

extra large Indian can stand
as a fine table centerpiece.

The 115 lb. Colts got off to a

Rodents Move In
WithColdWeather
ATHENS—As the weather
gets colder, mice and rats that
have been living outdoors start
trying to move into heated
homes and buildings.
Homeowners usually either
see or hear the pests soon after
they get into the house. They
may also notice hair, tracks in
dusty places, or droppings. If
the problem is really bad, the
rodents may begin to smell.
To help homeowners avoid
these unwanted guests, Robert
Carlton, wildlife specialist with
the Cooperative Extension
Service, offers these sug
gestions.
SEAL THE HOUSE. Check
for ways rodents might get in.
Look for cracks, shallow spaces
in the foundation or skirting,
and openings around utility
lines. Plug these holes with
mortar, caulking, or wood.
Also check sewer openings,
drainage holes, windows and
doors.
TAKE AWAY THEIR
FOOD, WATER AND
SHELTER. Keeping a neat,
clean house can be one way of
making sure you aren’t pro
viding a perfect place to stay
for these pests.
Get rid of dark corners and
junk where the rodents might
be able to hide. Don’t allow
water to leak or stand in the
house. Store food where the
rodents won’t be able to get at
it.
Keep lids on garbage cans
and clean up food crumbs.
T.D.’s and heavy penalties.
Eric Spratling caught a pass
from his quarterback and one
from the quarterback of the
Packers for two T.D.’s but
both were called back for
penalties. Richard Darnell
scored the third tally. The
final score came by David
Light running at half-back for
the first time this year. Final
27-0 Colts.
Again our thanks to Coach
Stanley Darnell whose boys
will play the all-stars
November 16 along with the 85
lb. Colts.
“Don’t keep food in paper
containers that mice and rats
would be able to chew
through,” Carlton advises.
SET TRAPS. Traps are the
best way to get rid of rodents.
To do a good job, use plenty of
traps and place them no more
than ten feet apart. Enlarge the
trigger with a piece of card
board and bait it with peanut
butter or underdone bacon.
“Place the traps against the
wall,” Carlton notes. “Rodents
like to travel where they can
feel something beside them.”
Dropouts
Are Using
GI Benefits
High school dropouts who
detoured through military
service enroute to college
have a GI Bill benefit that
wasn’t available to their
fathers after World War 11.
And they are using it in record
numbers.
In addition to the 36-months
of college assistance Vietnam
veterans earn with as little as
18 months service, they can
receive GI Bill payments for
the additional months that
might be necessary to
complete high school or take
additional courses needed to
meet college entrance
requirements. These ad
ditional “free entitlement”
months can be used without
depleting the basic 36-months
eligibility needed for four
college years.
During fiscal year 1973,
there were 129,980 veterans
and servicemen, who had
used free entitlement, were
enrolled in college. This is
almost double the number
enrolled during the previous
year.
To date, 195,653 veterans
and servicemen have used the
benefit, and nearly 70 percent
were still in training during
the last fiscal year.
Veterans should contact
their nearest VA office for
further information.
