down over their ears. The most in

the brown cloth bags into which they
crawl. hooking them around their

These bags look most complicated
with their ropes, straps and buckles,
but the children have so mastered the
art of getting in and out of them that
it takes only until the teacher counts
four for them to discard them.
For the benefit of the visitors Miss
Mead asked the children various ques.

school in enthusiastic replies.
The children are given a breakfast
upon their arrival at S:45. 1t consists
of fruit, bread and butter and hot
