Pupils of the Sutton school in Northfield township decided this winter they needed more than theory in their social and science studies, so, with the aid of their teacher, Gertrude A. Doorn, they have built up the model farm yard shown above. And to make it more realistic, Norene Denune, shown at the right, has brought in a pen of live baby chicks. Other pupils shown above are Esther Maulbetsch, left, a first grader; Harry Clement, jr., a second grader, and Ernest Honke, an eighth grader. All children in the school worked on the project.
