New revolutionary chopper knives that make it possible to
‘¢hop an entire season without knife sharpening have just
been introduced by Gehl Bros. Manufacturing Co., West Bend,
Wisconsin. The new chrome-edged chopper knives are stand
ard equipment on the Gehl Chop-All. The inset in the photo
above shows the knives which will be known as Gehl’s Ever-
Sharp Knives. The chrome-edged knives stay sharp for a full
season of chopping and the chrome cutting edge lasts the
life of the knife.
Along with these new knives, Gehl is also introducing as
standard Chop-All equipment, a tungsten-carbide-faced cutter
bar that lasts up to 20 times longer than ordinary cutter bars.
Together, these two new standard features on the Gehl Chop-
All make it possible to chop from spring to fall without touche
ing up or changing knives.
A farmer, who has used one of the Chop-Alls with chrome
edged knives this past year, reports filling seven silos (about
750 tons) without touching a knife and figures that the set is
good for at least another seven silos before they'll need

The Southern Association of
Colleges and Secondary Schools
conducts a Cooperative Pro
gram in Elementary Education
each year. The elementary
schools in Newton Couug par
ticipate in this in an effort to
improve. Each year the facul
ty at E. L. Ficquett School
chooses a special subject area
in which to work and try to
improve. In the past we have
worked on Science, Math,
Language Arts, Reading, So
cial Studies, etc. This year we
have chosen the following:
Ways and Means of Helping
Children to Understand and
Practice Good Citizenship and
Good Manners. |
Different phases of this idea,
and projects connected with it,
will be carried out in the va
rious home rooms throughout
the school. We hope that, @z a
result, each pupil will brcome
a better citizen in the home, at
school, in all phases of com
munity life, in the state and in
the nation. Each room will be
reporting its activities through
the E. L. Ficquett News each
week. We hope an interest will
be shown in this project by all
parents and citizens of this com
munity, and that they will help
us to encourage pupils to be
come good citizens.
Mrs. Carlton’s Homeroom
Second semester officers for
Mrs. Carlton’s homeroom are
Nelson Hoffman, president;
Becky Dyer, vice president and
Margie Brown, secretary.
Citizens of the week named
by secret ballot on February
26, were Barbara Morgan and
Bill Wood. Barbara, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs., Jack H. Mor
gan, is the oldest of seven chil
dren. Bill, the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Don Wood Sr., is the last
“chip off the block” of Woods,
his brother, Don Jr., and sister
Janelle, being former graduates
of Ficquett School. Both Bill
‘and Barbara have lived all
‘their lives in Newton County
and have been members of the
class of '62 during their school
years at Ficquett.
Barbara, a member of the
First Methodist Church attends
MYF and Church School. Bill
belongs to the First Baptist
Church. Barbara is active in
the Girl Scouts, while Bill takes
part in the 4-H Club.
At Ficquett, where both stu
dents make good grades, Bill
participates in the sports pro
gram, playing football and
basketball. He is also interest
ed in baseball and swimming.
‘Barbara is not active in sports,
but has interest in reading,
sewing, and in flowers—any
thing in nature. She likes the
dogs and horses owned by her
family.
Bill likes to hunt, and en
joys the out-of-dors. One of
his responsibilities is a herd of
white-faced Herefords—*but”,
says Bill, “I don’t mind this,
because I like T-bone steaks”.
Both Bill and Barbara like
math, and Bill enjoys science
very much. They agree that
school is fun, (although their
opinions were expressed sep
arately” — just because “we
like people, and enjoy being
with them”.
Sixth Grade
This year we are placing
emphasis on Citizenship. Many
activities are being carried out
to serve as daily reminders of
our privileges and responsibili
ties as a citizen. The pupils in
group 111 were asked to write
their definition of a good eciti=
zen. Here are a few of the defi
nitions.
A Good Citizen
By Jud Callaway
A citizen is a person who is
loyal to his home, church,
community and country. The!
citizen respects the property ofi
others, tries to be polite andl»
couarteous and obedient to one
another. He or she works en-l
thusiastically on any project |
assigned and volunteers for |
many useful causes. Above all{
a citizen should be clean and
reverent. Just think if every- |
one in America was a true|
citizen how wonderful this’
country would be today. ‘
A Good Citizen |
By Mary Lewis ‘
To me a good citizen is one |
who is friendly to everyone, isl
loyal to his parents, to all his
elders, and to his com- |
munity. One who respects oth- |
er's property is honest andz
courteous always, and does all |
he can for clubs, schools, peo- |
ple and churches. l
Few people can do all this|
but if you will try hard you |
will always be a very good |
citizen. {
A Good Citizen %
By Elaine Wood i
A good citizen is one who |
abides by the rules, obeys the|
laws, takes part in the activi
ties in his community, is hon
est, kind, loyal, true, aop.ud.-
ble and self-reliant. He cone
trols his tongue, his temper, hig
thoughts and his actions.
A Good Citizen
By Becky Blair
In my opinion a good citizen
is one who enjoys his rights
and privileges. One who stands
’up for the right thing and en
courages others to do so.
-1 believe a good citizen is al=
~ways fair in elections and oth
‘er political matters, A good
’cmzen is a freedom-loving per
'son. He would gladly take part
|ln a community project. He is
‘one who would always be po
lite and courteous to others,
Let's all live up to these
facts and always be a good
citizen.
A Good Citizen
[ By Johony Gregory
Citizenship is the act of be
}lng a good citizen. A good
citizen obeys the rules of his
school, community, and coun
try. He is thoughtful and con
siderate of others. He is truth
ful and honest in all things, He
tries to cooperate with other
citizens of his particular group.
A Good Citizen
By John L. Travis
To me a good citizen is one
who shows respect and loyalty
to his own country, One who
acts reverently during worship
services. A good citizen is one
who obeys rules willingly. To
be kind to new pupils that have
just come into a school is a
good citizen. A person that is
courteous to others and shows
respect to his elders. A good
citizen has on his best man=-
ners ALL times. Are you @&
good citizen? ‘
A Good Citizen
By Smitty Callaway ‘
I think a good citizen should
obey all laws and be a (ood‘
neighbor., He should also take
pride in the beauty of his
community and help stamp out
the litter bug. He should be
civic minded and help improve
his city. In addition he should
take part in his community
and city activities such as
worthy fund raising, aid to the
aged, youth activities, and by
all means every school pro
ject.
Pupils in the sixth grade are
“Citizenship Conscious”, these
days. In Social Studies the pu
pils have studied about the
German, Austrian and Swiss
people. As a spontaneous ac
tivity Tuesday the pupils wrote
the following:
