The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Teaching Disabled Soldiers the Manual Arts


From the May 30, 2018, MidWeek  ":Looking Back."

1943, 75 Years Ago.

"Miss Miner, art teacher at Sycohi (I had to look this one up, it stands fro Sycamore Community High School), has been informed that she will be definitely teaching the soldiers who are disabled at the Great Lakes and Chicago Beach Hospitals.

"Among things she will teach will be handicraft, weaving, drawing and any other manual art they might wish to learn to do.  This new job will occupy only the summer months and possible Saturdays of her time as she will continue to teach throughout the school system in Sycamore."
