First Time Idea Was
Tried In the COuntrU

For two years after graduation
Miss Esch taught English and his
tory in the high school, then last
summer she was abroad.
When she returned to Washington
in the fall she looked around for
something to do-many, in fact
most, Of her friends were doing
nothing and getting bored and blase
while doing it, so she determined
to get busy.
And get busy she did, with a
vengeance.
The Board of Education in Wash
ington decided last fall to have a
teacher for the children in the House
of Detention--and this was the first
time the idea was tried anywhere
in the country.
Miss ESch heard of the decision
and applied for the position. She
was appointed by the board and i'm
mediately took up her duties.
That was just two weeks ago.
"The children here" Miss Esch
explained, "are in for their first
offense. whatever that offense hap
