World Book prize for Uncle Rays readers asks questions
UNCLE RAYS CORNER awards a 20 volume World Book Encyclopedia set to Fairplains School for outstanding letters and questions. Teachers may prompt 4th to 12th graders to submit science history or geography questions for a chance at the prize. The column also discusses cave men depictions and treatment of women, noting limited evidence of brutality and highlighting roles of women in Iroquois governance and Native cultures. The history section invites a free Uncle Rays leaflet on North American Indians and references the 1863 Army code shaping later wartime rules.
