Laura Landis, New London Grange # 2401, Nova, OH
We have given dictionaries to the third graders in the school district for 4 or 5 years. The teachers and kids really look forward to it. The teachers asked us if we could give them a little earlier this year so the kids could get more use out of them. They are learning how to use a dictionary in 3rd grade.

This is the 5 year that the Orangevale Grange #354 has chosen to donate dictionaries to all 3rd graders in Orangevale, California. We receive nothing but great comments from the teachers and students about how useful the dictionaries are.
Ruth Nelson, Ohop Grange # 812, Eatonville, WA
We have donated dictionaries to all the children in the Eatonville School District for seven years now. Many of the children have siblings that have already gotten a dictionary in years past, so they are anxiously waiting to get their very own dictionary.
