A question, from a first
grade teacher in the Willow
Street schools last year star
ted a unique program in
Lancaster county educational
systems. Mrs. Esther Herr in
searching for answers to
some of the questions posed
by her first grade pupils
asked Mr. George Myers,
teacher of Vocational Agri
culture at Lampeter - Stras
burg High School if he would
recommend a farm which
the class could visit. Myers
responded by setting up a
schedule of farm visits super
vised by the boys in his calss
es.
The visits proved so suc
cessful that the program bids
to become an annual affair.
On Tuesday 57 first graders
from the Willow Street
school visited the farms of
four students of Vocational
Agriculture in the Lampeter
area.
The visitors were accom- 1 competitions, a youngster
