Activities engaged in on the
playground were:

the summer and the glazing sun
on the playground area next to the
Community House, it was neces-
sary to bring the activities inside
the building. The gym was used
as our summer playground.
Activities were confined to the
entire basement, such activities
were:
Story hour, clay modelling,
dodge ball, handicraft, voIey
ball, ping pong, checkers.
General attendance:
First half of July 1876; second

Wheatley House
Opens 18th Year
On October 2

Phyllis Wheatley Settlement
House formally opens its doors
Friday, October 2, at 7:3O p. m, to
the citizens of Minneapolis for the
18th annual year. A fine program
will be arranged to illustrate to
the people the type of work that
will be offered this year. The in
crease in staff through WPA and
NYA aid makes it possible for a
much larger program of activities.
This increase, coupled with an
added incentive to people for inn
proved education, should guarantee
the House one of its most prosper
Gus years.
Recently throughout the nation
the settlement house has assumed
a higher place in the community
because of the accelerated interest
in leisure time activities. Neigh
borhoods are clamoring for Gre
alive opportunities along the
lines of craft, sewing, needlework,
folk dancing, singing, tap dancing
and recreation.
The staff of Phyllis Wheatley is
anxious to provide these classes.
This year each of the churches will
have a phyllis Wheatley Mite" at
which classes will be explained.
The value of an activity pro-
gram is mainly recreational, but
there is also the practical side. 1t
is the hope of the staff that men
and women will gain valuable in
formation from these classes. For
example the Women's Shop Mite
will be opened every Thursday eve
ming.
Instructions will be given in
sewing, quilting, knitting, and
needlework. On every last Friday
in the month, an exhibit will be
held at the Adult Friendly Neigh
Dor Club, where these articles may
be viewed or purchased.
Similarly girls and boys Gift
Club will be organized in which
articles for sale or for gift pur-
poses may be made. Folk dane
ing and group singing will be init
ated with the hope of presenting,
later, some type of pageant. In
all these, there is some place in
the program for each member of
the family. And as usual there
is a full line of athletics.
A partial list of activities fol-
lows: Nursery, kindergarten, ping
pong, puppetry, handicraft, press
club, folk dancing, dramatics, ath-
letics, sewing, knitting, quilting,
needlework, cooking, candy-mak-
ing, discussion clubs, tap dancing
and orchestra. Everyone is urged
to come out October End and regis
ter for one or more of these &C.
tivities.

While the handling methods and the

iodine, in soil production is receiving
growing attention from soil scientists, the
Agricultural Experiment Station at the
University of Delaware was chosen by
the Crop Protection Institute in 1888
to conduct research in the use of copper
as plant nutrient and soil amendment.
This work has been progressing since
then under the supervision of DIR. I. r.

done by Raymond Russell, now in Cali

been conducting the more recent re-
search.
In 1888, DIR. Manns and Mr.. Russell,
working with Delaware SOILS obtained
favorable results on both corn and wheat
BY use of the Neubauer method. This
consisted of planting samples in large
earthenware pots and fertilizing differ
ent pots with varying amounts of the
copper sulphate mixture. Field expert

was placed in charge of the field work.
His methods included planting test plots
in sections of North Carolina, South
Carolina and Virginia. Each test plot
consisted of several 100 yard rows. The
