How could children feel grumpy and dull when i every minute of their school day is j spent in an atmosphere free from the I poisonous carbon dioxide and the j great humidity of ordinary school j rooms? Our youngsters have not only grown | physically, but have done their share; of "reading, writing and arithmetic." j The girls have become excellent house- j keepers and learned to care for the little tots. The boys, too, take pride j in their culinary work. Cooking, the! art of dishwashing, scouring pans, I shining faucets and an occasional bat- ! tie with the dishcloths form a part of their curriculum. Among the fine treats given the chil- j dren were a turkey dinner from the; Civic Club, a piano. Victrola and rec- j ords. Technical students made a red! letter day with their 'live Christmas i entertainment and gifts for the young- j sters.

The enrollment' was 40 pupils for the year. The lunch eon and dinner served the pupils aver aged 5Vi cents a day.
