that not only has an Interest been
created but that It is lasting.
The Educational Work continues.
Put your ear to the door and listen
to the rumble of the sewing machines,
the murmur of English as It Is sup
posed to be spoken, and the scales
and scales that belong to the prelim
inary performances of a pianist In the
making. It Is a busy part of the build

on.
And the Poor Children's Classes.
Busy little folks learning the First
National Reader by heart, backwards,
sideways, and every way. but learn

the scratch of the pencil on the slate
and over thirty others are deep In
texts and also learning to sing nymns.
And when these little folk were In
vited to tea by a board member, bless
their little hearts, they were so "shy"
to eat so they carefully wrapped the
goodies In their handkerchiefs and
"stowed them away" later with unin-
terupted Joy.

"The Y. W. C. A. work Is divided Into
the educational department, the phy
