ment. which had proven entirely
successful.
20 A group Of nearly 100 children,
ranging in age from six to II years,
took part in the program, the first
part Of which was given in the
gymnasium, owing to the inability Of
moving some Of the heavier gymnas-
ium equipment to the grounds. The
smaller children INDUCED in num-
Der OF ball games and running and
jumping exercises, which gave them
a chance to develop all their mus
cIes. They also did some excellent
work on the horizontal bars. The
older children devoted their time to
a series Of trapez stunts, balancing
exercises, high jumps, hurdle jump
ing and various gymnastic exercises.
A group Of the older girls assisted
Miss Henning during the evening.
The work of the children in all the
events was excellently done when the
short time that they have been
working with Miss Henning is taken
into consideration.
The second part OF the program
consisted Of number of out of door
games in which all the children par
ticipated. They were divided into
groups, according to their ages.

Miss He11ai1ag Makes Plea For
Fully Equipped Playground

Miss Clair Henning, who has had
charge Of the playground work in
Fargo this summer, made Il plea for
a thoroughly equipped public play
ground for the children Of Fargo,
who spend their vacations in the
city, at the exhibition Of playground
work at the Agassiz school, Friday
evening. Miss Henning declared
that Fargo was too large city not
to have a fully equipped play
ground, and urged that this matter
be taken up at once so that by an
other year, there would be better
equipment to work with than she
has had this summer. She declared
that one could do great deal with
the blue sky, the ground and the
children, but that it was not enough
if the best results were to be- ac-
complished, and that equipment was
necessary. She also urged that the
employment of a full time trained
worker was essential to the sue
cess Of a. playground, as volunteer
workers, while their help was very
valuable, could not be depended on,
and the work was disrupted when
they were not present to meet their
classes. In closing, Miss IIenning
said that the playground work here

Conserving the Nerves and

Everything that is possible is done to add
to the comfort of the women employees A staff
OF welfare workers under the supervision of a
delightful motherly woman is on duty in the
rest room, where the girls spend the few min
utes that are left Of their lunch hour after
they come from the cafeteria. 1t is a lovely,
homeike place, with bright chintz hangings
and flowers, comfortable easy chairs and
couches, and piano which is seldom silent
during the noon hours. A staff of two doctors
and five nurses are always within call in case

In one corner of the rest room is table
piled high with Skeins of wool and finished
knitted garments, presided over by a woman
who is an expert knitter and who is here to
teach those who are ignorant of such matters

Sock or OF starting the sleeve of sweater.
From the wall above the table the nhoto-

such good account A collection is taken nm
periodically to buy wool for the girls who are
willing to devote their few spare minutes at
noon to knitting for the men in the service.
OlteH entertainments OF recltations and
songs are given the girls in the rest room dur

speaker will lecture to them for ten or fifteen
