Grade Two.
Last Friday Rev. J. II. Ostdiek,
Diocesan Superintendent of Public
Schools, visited our class room during
religious instruction. Father congrat
ulated the little boys and girls and sai«!
that he was surprised to receive such
intelligent answers from little children.
He remarked, too, that the children of
the O’Neill community were unusually
responsive.
Tuesday afternoon we all enjoyed
• nakii g pretty little baskets and filling
them with bright co'oi ; dowers
Third ami Fourth Grades.
About two w'eeks ago, we sent our
papers to the Palmer Company for
their approval to receive our buttons.
We were all happy when the pink and
yellow slips returned, telling us that
twenty-two of the class had written
the muscular movement way.
Those who receive a merit button
are: Marion Brandon, Mary Ann
Casey, Mary Helen Martin, Matilda
Peter, Constance Golden, Paul Kubits
chek, John Harty, Alfred McNamara,
William O’Connell and Robert Schendt.
The Palmer buttons are for: Leona
Bazelman, Corinne Kubitschek, Dor
othy Lowery, Dorothy Davidson, Wini
fred Coyne, Lorraine Agnes, Mary
Hickey, Vincent Streeter, Claude Ham
ilton, Robert Novratil, Dominic Kub
ik and John Stein.
Last Thursday we invited Sister
Alexis to be the judge for our fourth
grade reading contest. We were di
vided into three groups and each one
of the group had. to read a part of a
story. After all had read, three of
the best readers who were Sheila Bar
rett, Alfred McNamara and Paul Kub
itschek were again called upon to read
poems and other parts of stories. It
was rather hard to decide which one
would be called the most natural
reader, until linally, Paul Kubitschek
seemed to make us understand the best
the poem, ‘‘The Man of the House.”
The following grades were given:
Group 1: Alfred McNamara 98, Mary
Helen Martin 9G, 'Matilda Peter and
Mary Ann Casey 94, Robert Schendt
86. Group 2: Paul Kubitschek 99,
William O’Connell (known as Doc) 96,
John Reinhardt 92, Rita Reinhardt 89,
Constance Golden 80. Group 8:
Sheila Barrett 97, John Harty and
John Morrison 96, Marion Brandon 70.
Next Tuesday the Third grade will
have their reading contest and it will
be an exciting time until we have the
name of the winner.

Personals.
Mother Superior honored us with
her presence at our Holy Childhood
meeting which was held Tuesday, April
24. This meeting was called to order
by the president, Catherine Finley, and
the secretarry, George Hammond,called
roll, read the minutes of the last meet
ing and also read the financial state
ments recorded by the treasurer, Wm.
Biglin, who was absent on account of
illness.
The speakers for this ocasion were
June Carol White, Eileen Kelly, Rob
ert Kelly, Robert Moore and Edward
McManus.
Before the meeting was adjourned,
Mother was asked to say a few words
to the members of the Club. She told
us that she was highly pleased with
the way we conducted our meeting,
and that she had something more than
just “advice” to give us. Mother also
commented on the sincerity of all the
members. In conclusion, Mother prom
ised us a treat in the form of a “hike”
on the first nice day in May. She said
that we deserved it on account of our
diligence and good behavior during the
year. Thank you, Mother Claver,
very, very much. We shall certainly
enjoy the day, more so becau e it came
from you.
Mary Ann Meer, Catherine Finley,
Catherine McNichols, William Kubit
schek. Dale Kersenbroek, George Ham
mond, Francis Hickey and. Donald
Wei nke received 100 per cent in the
arithmetic test for April.
Pale Kersenbroek, George Hammond,
Owen Hiattt, Donald Lowrey, John
Shoemaker, Robert Miles, Robert
Moore, Mary Catherine Finley, Alice
Hamilton, Vera Coyne, Constance Big
lin, Dorothy Valla and Catherine Mc
Nichols have joined the list of the
“Great Geography Map Makers.”
The Fifth and Sixth grades were
divided into seven groups receiving
the names of the following schools:
St. Mary’s, Emmet, Atkinson, Stuart,
Inman, Ewing and Rage. These
schools competed with one another in
spelling, and the winner of the first
place was Catherine McNichols and
Eileen Kelly second place, both of
St. Mary’s. The first day after this
competition, each pupil represented a
certain county in Nebraska; .these
counties competed for a World Herald
winner. Holt county’s representative,
Catherine McNichols was the lucky
winner of this contest. Next week the
pupils represent states, and. a Wash
ington champion speller will be chosen.
The “hike” given us by Mother
Claver was taken Wednesday, May 2,
and a very pleasant time was had by
all. Games of all kinds were played,
and then, after lunch, visits were made
to the most famous places in the vic
inity. We did some daring mountain
climbing to the summits of Mt. Roose
velt and Mt. O’Neill in the Sand Cliff
Mountains. Last, but not least, we
paid a visit to the graves of our dear
departed, breathed a prayer for them,
and then wended our way homeward,
—happy, but, oh! so tired.
Births und Deaths.
A piece of chalk was severely hurt
when it fell to the floor while working
at arithmetic problems at the black
board. It was rushed to the hospital
at once, where a thorough examin
ation revealed a crushed skull. Little
hopes are entertained for its recovery.
Obituary notice next week—if desired.
The old English letter “W” met its'
death while doing service for Romaine
Stein. Its backbone was broken and
the eye was seriously crushed.
