It would be a desk, or it could be opened and then it would be a chair and desk. In the old Colonial days, there were no banks. Instead, people had special desks made for themselves.

These desks would have many little drawers. Behind each compartment, there might be -another hidden compartment. The barracks are where the soldiers slept who fought in the Revolutionary War.

Then they showed us two raincoats made out of seals' intestines. They said that the Eskimos kill walruses and use the ivory tusks to make little carvings. They had two stuffed seals in a glass case. Then we went to the "Old We also saw some ladies dressed up in the style of 200 years ago. We saw Grandfather clocks and a desk with secret compartments.

We saw a table that opened into a chair and desk. You could sit and write at the same time. We saw the barracks where the soldiers slept. They wrapped themselves in a blanket and slept on straw. Then we went to the State house where the Governor has his office.

Joe Ferraro We learned at the State Museum that Eskimos eat meat raw because there is not enough fuel for cooking. Eskimos kill animals only because they need the food. Every part of the animal is used. An Eskimo waits and waits maybe for hours before a seal is caught. First the Eskimo takes a needle-like tool and threads it with hair.

Then he puts his harpoon on a support. Then he waits until the seal comes. At the barracks, there were many rooms. One room had a floor that was two hundred years old. All the rest of the barracks were rebuilt.

In one room there were paintings of the signers of the New Jersey Declaration of Independence. There was also a room that had one of the first pianos.
