ground facilities for the children Of the
neighborhood. The grounds were in
spected recently at q public function
held at the settlement and were pro-
nounced by expert social workers to
be up to the mark in both management
and equipment.
The institution has had hard strus-
gle for the past Ave years. The i'm
mediate friends Of the settlement have
been loyal to It and have given hber-
ally Of their time and money for its
maintenance. About eighteen months
ago an appeal to the public was made
for funds with which to carry on the
work. The response was quite gener-
ous. Through the efforts and influence
Of the officials q sufficient sum was
raised to put the building In first class
condition, making more room and bet
ter facilities for taking care Of the
large number Of children.
The building is under the direct So
pervision Of DR.. v. Morton-Jones,
well known and capable physician and
social worker. Mrs. Jones has created
great interst In the work and won
many friends to its support. She II
assisted by other competent women in
looking after the various details In
connection with the day nursery,
games, etc.
Funds, however, are needed, and the
public Of Brooklyn and any other cities
is asked to aid in this worthy work for
the little ones Of our race. The white
people have been very generous toward
the institution from its inception. The
building Is located at los Fleet place.
