being watched by the outside world.
The things that they are doing IN
their institutions count but more
than that, the things which theif
graduates are doing, not only among
their immediate neighbors but also
throughout the states and the ma
tion, count.

It's variety, It's interesting

the real difference In the num-

grams ever sponsored In Sank

its third year, with the main
supervisors, MIR. and Mrs. Gene
Harvey. These folks have done
q grand job I'm the last two
years, have coupled their SER
vices with those of WPA lead
ers, Ray Steir and Clarence
Dickinson. Through 1t all,
Mrs. Harvey has dOggedly tried
to give the girls program all
by her lonesome. This year,
Elizabeth Brown has been as
signed to help. In addition there
are twelve senior high girls to
assist, and women from the
Sank Centre Welfare Council.
