WOMEN TAKE UP
SPLENDID PROJECT

Since the discovery has been made
that the kindergarten system in Gary
is being financed by two women of
Rome, Ind, interested in this work
throughout the state of Indiana, q
greater interest is being taken in this
department of the public school system
than ever before. By virtue of their
modesty, they ahve repeatedly request
ed that their names be withheld from
the public.
Many persons in Gary, and particu-
1arly among those the foreigners, are
not conversant with the work of the
kindergartens and their purposes, but
are gradually learning in Gary that 1t
is one of. the most useful and pro-
ficient branches of the school.
The director, Miss Evelyn Mech Of
Grand Rapids, Mich, in charge of this
department with her assistant, has re-
quested this paper to ask all mothers
and any person in fact interested in
| this work to visit this privately en-
dowed department of the schools. The
cooperation of the parents in this
work is almost imperative to its sue
cess and of almost inestima BILE value t
