Issue Questionnaires. tsg
Through the Boy Scouts and the
public schools, missionaries have
been issued to people of these neigh
bors, who are above school age, in an
effort to determine the activities de-
sired in various localities.
The Parent-Teachers' associations,
the Ke-Nash-A club, and other organ
izations, which helped considerably in
introducing the neighborhood center
work in the city last year, will contin-
ue their cooperation through this sea-
son.
Some neighborhoods are carrying on
their center activities in individual
manners. At the Grant, since the
school building facilities are made
quate, neighborhood groups meet at
various places.
An orchestra, under the direction of
John Sinclair, comprises players rang
ing in age from youngsters of eight
years to the old folks whose haven is
the fireside.
At the Grant, also, a dramatic cir
Gle has been in active organization for
some time, and it is expected that sew
eral plays will be presented this year.
