AT UNION STATION: agreed. Stevenson, Justin Thompson and others from their group put together a railroad safety rap which they recorded for the museum's use. The rap warns children about playing on or near railroad tracks. The recording was a lot of fun, said Stevenson. Thompson said the tour made the work worth it. He said he enjoyed the gun museum most. But the whole museum is a pretty neat place," he added. Museum volunteer Clair Night, whose name tag announces his 1,500 hours of service, said the students contributions will go to good use.

Improving research skills was one of the big goals of the project, said teacher Emma Lou Draper. The project was designed to strengthen previously learned skills, such as research, developing time lines, correct lesson formats, and the responsibility of finishing a project that is worthy of public display, Draper wrote in a publicity release. Each poster was put together first using computers on a regular sheet of paper. After it was perfected, it was blown up to poster size and mounted on poster board. The fin Teachers Melinda Stecklein and Greg Tubbs also helped with the project, but ended up staying back at the school to hold down the fort. Student Miranda Treleaven said the process took a long time, but it was fun. She put together an poster detailing the history of 25th Street. Wesley Canada created a brochure to tell people about telegraphs and Morse code. The pamphlet had a series of questions students could use to quiz their knowledge of Morse code. One question asked, Did you know you have to go through training in Morse code to operate a telegraph because just one wrong letter could cause a train wreck. A museum coordinator said Canadas brochures will be placed right next to the telegraphs for museum patron Allergy relief Improve air quality Eliminate must odors COflTl Microscopic dust mites cling to dust particles in your home..
