meeting of the city commission.
When he dropped his verbal
bombshell into the laps of the
city fathers one or two members
gasped while a deadly momen-
tary silence settled over the
gathering. 1t was, clearly, an
embarrassing subject.
The mayor revealed the ad-

dressing Chief Rosso directly,
he asked him-one at a time
whether or not he was aware
that the places bore regulations
as illegal enterprises. In each
case the chiefs answer was

When the mayor tossed q
handful Of betting slips on the
commission table he asked Com
missioner Oehmke what he in

In response to a direct ques-

Justice Jeanette, following
Holmes plea of guilty, ordered
him 10 make restitution to Mrs.

Wilmington has long been nurs-

first public nurseries set up here
in 1885 as relief measure to
conserve the childhood of the ma
ton during the depression years.
The outstanding results here were
seen over the whole country and
as a result the worth of nursery
training was not questioned by In

Williams, director of nursery
schools, said yesterday.
In March 1943 the Wilmington
Public School system took over

which was administered by EVA.
Federal funds were put into the
service in order to free women
with children for work.
It was purely a war production
measure, Mrs. Williams stated
and now that the emergency is
over the care of the young child
rightly reverts to the local COM
munity and the parents. Hence
no more Federal funds for the op-
GRAFTON of nursery schools will be
available after the 31st of October.
II is inconceivable, however that
a service that has been found to
be so valuable from every stand
point, should be allowed to fold up,
she said.
1.-THE Federal government will
leave the nursery school equipment
in the centers," said H. M. Roland,
superintendent of schools, "as long
as there is a need for it and that
an agency sponsors the school.
1T is understood that several
nursery school teachers will carry
on the work in some of the CEN
ters," continued Mr.. Roland. How
ever, all expenses must be paid
in weekly payments. Heretofore,
more than half Of all expenses
have been paid by Federal funds. -

hangs them on low hooks, then,
after a drink of water he is ready
for the day.
1.-THE young student chooses what
he wants to play with and is con
tented until time for outdoor play,
and here he is allowed to put his
own wraps on and button up to
his hearts content.
1.-THE groups then play outside on
slides, swings, see-saws, sand-piles,
with buckets, shovel, outdoor
blocks, and in the summer, water
sprays, toy boats in tubs, just
the things that children have al
ways loved, she said.
Back inside the playroom,
everyone washes his or her hands
and is ready for the mid-morning
fruit juice. Then comes time for
creative play, with clay. crayons,
paint, scissors, blocks, dolls, puz-
zles and toy animals.
"The younsters like the story
and song period, which is includ.
ed in the day, usually as a quiet
period, in contrast to very active
play. Just before lunch everyone
lies down for about 10 minutes
of rest as the teacher tells a
quiet story, or sings softly.
Lunch is always a happy time
with good food and well balance
meals. This is the. time when the
most interesting conversations are
carried on and it is amazing to
see how easily the children catch
on to the idea of polite dinner
table conversation.
AFTER lunch the nursery stu.
dents take nap for at least an
hour after which the outdoor &C.
tivities are resumed and when
mothers comes for Sonny at $3.50
there are so many interesting
things to tell her he never gets
