    The Lottery by Shirley Jackson   The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns there were so many people that the lottery took two days and had to be started on June 2th. but in this village, where there were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took less than two hours, so it could begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the villagers to get home for noon dinner. The children assembled first, of course. School was recently over for the summer, and the feeling of liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they tended to gather together quietly for a while before they broke into boisterous play. and their talk was still of the classroom and the teacher, of books and reprimands. Bobby Martin had already stuffed his pockets full of stones, and the other boys soon followed his example, selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie Delacroix-- the villagers pronounced this name "Dellacroy"--eventually made a great pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against the raids of the other boys. The girls stood aside, talking among themselves, looking over their shoulders at rolled in the dust or clung to the hands of their older brothers or sisters. Soon the men began to gather. surveying their own children, speaking of planting and rain, tractors and taxes. They stood together, away from the pile of stones in the corner, and their jokes were quiet and they smiled rather than laughed. The women, wearing faded house dresses and sweaters, came shortly after their menfolk. They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their husbands. Soon the women, standing by their husbands, began to call to

    interact club reuse a shoe project february 1 - march 1, 2010 how reuse a shoe works: opened in 1993, our wilsonville facility uses a “slice-and-grind” technique, where each shoe is cut into three slices - rubber outsole, foam midsole and fabric upper. these slices are then fed through grinders and purified. once purified, these substances become three unique types of nike grind: nike grind rubber, made from the shoe's outsole, is used in track surfaces, interlocking gym flooring tiles, playground surfacing and consumer products, such as new footwear outsoles and trim items like buttons and zipper pulls. nike grind foam, made from the shoe's midsole, is used as a cushion for outdoor basketball and tennis courts, as well as futsal fields. nike grind upper, made from the shoe's fabric upper, is used in the creation of cushioning pads for indoor basketball, volleyball courts and equestrian surfacing products. bob yarnall 629-2001 byarnell@monroecti.org /cms/lib07/pa03000492/centricity/domain/48/reuse-a-shoe-logo.png 58 238
