WAY THEY ARE SUPPORTED.

Mrs. Hackley supports the Archibald,
West Side, Adams avenue chapel and
Ridge schools; Simpson & Watkins the
Northwest school, the Central Kinder
garten, training school and Jewish
synagogue school are maintained by
the association and about all of them
owe their creation to the association.
AS indicated by President Holland,
who presided, the well-to-do city
churches, excepting st. Luke's Episco-
pal church, the Jewish synagogue and
the Second Presbyterian church, have
done nothing toward aiding the work,
although the promoters had expected
long ago that the more prominent
churches would at least tender the use
or school rooms If nothing more. st.
Luke's Episcopal church was not only
among the first to realize the value of
the kindergarten as an ideal character
builder for the young, but 1t has estab-
lished and conducts several independ-
ent kindergarten schools. The Jewish
people give the use of a school room In
the synagogue on Linden street and are
by subscription and by Individual aid
among the most hearty supporters OF
the association. The Second Presby-
terian church gave the use Of its Ad-
ans avenue chapel.
The paper of Miss Underwood was
quite an exhaustive one and reviewed
the work of all the schools. 1t revealed
the cosmopolitan and in many cases
non-English speaking elements reached
by the kindergartens and their influ-
ence for good not only upon little chill
dren, but through them to their pa
rents. The six schools operated by
the association had an average daily
attendance of 244 during the year.
The assembly hall wherein the meet
ing was held was splendidly decorated
with cut and potted flowers and con-
tained an interesting display OF the
work of kindergarten pupils:
