Missouri elementary school pupils have studied a unit on 
        Kentucky for several years.  Following are a few excerpts from 
        their papers, tests, and homework answers:

        Kentucky is a very interesting state if you happen to be 
        interested in it.

        Compared to the fish there, people have been visiting Kentucky 
        Lake for only a drop in the bucket. 

        Population is Louisville's main cause of overcrowdedness.

        Once upon a time it happened that there was this spot on the map 
        called Louisville that some people came to.  Pretty soon some 
        more people came and made the spot bigger.  Then it grew bigger 
        and bigger.  Then bigger and bigger and bigger.  And that is 
        about the size of it up to this morning.

        People such as humans have children while cities such as 
        Louisville have suburbs.

        Louisville is a town that has many ways of transporting.  It is

        Early Kentucky settlers found abundant forests there. Everybody

        Daniel Boone was one of Kentuck's four fathers.

        He was born in 1734, supposably on his birthday.

        Boone expired in 1820 and later died from this.

        The shore line of the Ohio River would reach much farther if 
        they would straighten it out.  But we must cut government 
        spending somewhere.

        Louisville will be completely under water in a few million 
        years.  Just wait and see.

        Henry Clay is a famous American from there that few people have 
        ever heard of.

        Rumor has it that some terrible monsters live in the Mammoth 
        Cave.  These monsters are called spelunkers.

        Lake Barkley has saved many lives by people not trying to swim 
        across it.

        Kentucky is 40,000 in round figures and square miles.

        Kentucky is really the Bluegrass State.  But me and a lot of 
        other people still catch ourselves calling it Kentucky.

        One of their best imports is tourists.

        North of Paducah it has been found that railroad travel is 
        faster by boat.

        I know only one state that has more grass than Kentucky.  Can 
        you think where that is?  Sure!  Or at least that is where I 
        would say.

        Do you believe what I used to believe about Kentucky?  Well, 
        it is not true.

        Kentucky keeps map makers from going crazy because if they drew 
        Kentucky there without it really being there, they would be 
        crazy. 

        Fortunately, Kentucky and Tennessee fit snugly together.

        Lake Kentucky not only has a lot of fish but also a lot of 
        tourists, so it is about six of one and one for all.

        How the Mammoth Cave ever got made that way is just to admire, 
        not to really understand.
