is interested only to the extent Of
seeing the children of this cOmmuni-
ty develop with those who are for
tunate enough to live in surround
ings where such development is now
considered one of the social necess.-
ties along with a college education,
it seems an anomaly why this insti-
tuition of the modern revival of an
ancient civilization is not consider
ed one of the. leading ones of the
social community.
The mothers of Covington should
visit this little school on any Sat-
urday and familiarize themselves
with the work as it goes on, and it
is certain they will realize the good
that is derived from the institution.
