42 My Project Story This is my second year of project work and I like it pretty well. This year I took poultry ior my project. I had one Mascony duck. got my Mascony from Edmund Thies. I traded a pair of pigeons for that duck.

I brought that pair of pigeons-for 50 cents'and I 79c back for my pair of pigeons and my brother got a pigeon for nothing from Mr. Johnson ho took lOc for his pigeons and I took 73c for my pigeon. So we gave him 85c for the Mascony 'duck. I got that duck on April 17, 1920. I had her about a month and then she made hcrseli a nest in our shod.

She started to make her nest on Ma; 27, She laid- one egg on May altogether she laid 7 eggs so one flay she came out to get something to eat and drink. She went in our cow tank for some water. The tank was only half full of water, so sheVouldn't get out again when my mother saw her in there the duck was nearly dead, then my mother took her out, then the duck wont back to her nest and she chilled the eggs so she dirt not hatch any out, so, one day I took her eggs and smashed them on August 7th She rniule another nest and laid eleven eggs. She hatched out on Sept. 13, tour little ducks and few days later she lost one of her little (lucks out about a week later we took the other three ducks in the houso.

Tho next morning two of them were dead. So we gave her the other one back and she lost that one too. I did not have any more ducks. My name is Edwin Keimer and I am in the 7th yiade am! I am twelve years old. My Project, Dist.

Onn day I had been watching a baseball game between hvo teams of boys who were less fortunate in the draw, I was "skipped" and had to register and then no out very late and go home late, this happened several times. Onco. I got a punctilio and had to walk home and as I had already caddied thirty-six holes I was quite tired when-1 got home. I learned many things also. One of the best is George Washington's Honesty is the host policy.

One boy tried to change the time on his card and got discharged. Another is "Don't lose your When a. player makes a bad shot or something happens to-ruffle him and he addresses i i you. like but say nothing. I followed one profession that of caddying.

On all week days such a.i Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, we put alt the badges in one cap and after mixing them, we'd draw them out one at a time. This process is called, "drawing." On Sundays and holidays we registered and going on these said days are good paying ones for the days are god paying ones for the caddies. If we are out all day we gets tips which we are not to accept. I made sixty-seven dollars and seventy-five edits. All of this I gave to my mother and she gave me money sufficient to buy a set of clubs, with which I play at Edgebrook Golf Course and at Park Kidgc on Mondays, which are Caddy play days.
