We are camping in the Yellow

we drove north from the Lincoln
highway. All around us rise the
kigh peaks of the Rolky Moun
tains. Our camp is in the midst of
a thick forest just beside a clear
blue lake. Here and there steam
ing water bubbles out of the earth
in hot springs, and in some places
tha steaming water makes a
‘t'ountain called a geyser. You
‘s-hould see the steep valley which

We received a letter from a
girl in the sixth grade at LaFay
ette, Ga., asking us to tell her
something about Clarke county.
Virginia Woodall and Betty Lang,
from our grade, went over to the
University to see Mr. Reed, who
we think knows more about the
history of our section of Georgia
than almost any one else. Mr.
Reed told them that Clarke be
came a county in 1801, when it
was cut off from Jackson county.
Witkinsville was the first county
seat. In 1872, Oconee county was
cut off from Clarke and Athens
was made the county seat of
Clarke, while Watkinsville re
mained the county seat of Oco
nee. In 1801, the population of
Clarke county was only a few
’hundrml. mostly Enpglishmen and
farmers. Now we have about
{ 26,000 people.

cause we did not' have other May
Day exercises. 12 ¢
Room 10 girls played Room 7
girls in a Dbaseball tournament
Friday. Room 7 «girls won and
they received a red ribbon.
Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock,
Misg Carter took, the girls of
Room 10 through, the Co-Op
Creamery. We [enjoyed it very
much and it was very interesting
too. After we had looked at every
thing we were shown, the man
that had shown us the interesting
things gave all a strawberry ice
cream, which was very good.
When we came back, Miss Carter
told us to write what we enjoyed
most. It was very hard to decide
what was the most interesting.
Tuesday at last period the girls
of Room 11 went to the creamery
also. Mrs. Davis took them. They
saw the same things and also had
an ice cream.
In Room 10 Minnie Iloster's
group four, in English, gave their
play Wednesday which was good.
It was taken from ‘“Mrs. Wiggs
of the Cabbage Patech.”
In the English .class Room 11
have been having - debates, which
was much fun and enjoyed by the
whole class. In our Dramatic club
we have divided into different
groups with new chairmen. The
chairmen are as follows? Gloria
