This CLTS is a joint eniergency service rendered througb. a large group of cooperating settlement bouses and other social and recre- ational centers aIl over Chicago. It is sponsored by the Illinois Emer- gency Relief commission and the Chicago Council of Social agencies. Work Amopg Sicilian At Olivet there are representatives of twenty-two different nationalitics, but the families for wbom the cburcb and institute are an educational and recreational baveti, are largely Hun- garian and Sicilian. People of this latter nationality make up almost the entire patronage of the activities that are being carried on in a branch *1o- cation at Penni and Vedder streets, but there is a fascinating variety of tongues among the visitors frequent- ing tbe main-'buildings at 1441 Cleve- land avenue, south. of North avenue in the 500 block. At Olivet, under th e direction of two veteran social workers, Mr. and Mrs. Norman B. Barr, the former of wbom is superintendent, a full time summer school program is in oper- ation. Much industry is evident in thé classes in English, grammar, .typing, sewing, art, manual training and a number of other studies and occupations, and in aIl sorts of band- craft and play classes. Popular Kinadorgarten There is a lively kindergarten of fromn sixty to seventy-five young squirmers, and large groups of girls and boys bave daily supervised in- struction tbere. Amoig the adults a group of Moors bas been granted the use of classrooms for their art study, and equally interesting otber groups are carrying on aIl sorts of work and study. Olivet, like the other social centers, appreciates the "li ft" tbese extra workers have been able to give there ýthis summer. Leaders and directors who bave been on the job continu- ously tbrougb the dificuit recent years whicb bave brougbt an ever- increasing demand for service from these agencies, are a -harassed and a weary- lot of people just now. They areý seeking to carry on with budge ts sbarply stripped and so closely figur- ed that many much-needed and reg- ular parts of the progiamn would bave to be abandoned were it not for these workers sent in to supplement the staffs this summer., These workers, in their turn, are being' enabled to support themselves again through tbese jobs as supervisors. They. are ail prof essionally trained, a nd ,the, majoirity of tbem are college grad- uates, a number of them finding their- first jobs this way. Dawa& on board Rufus C, Dawes, president of A Century 'of Progress, is a' member of the board of trustees of Olivet In- stitute. Andrew C. Zenos,, presidtnt of Presbyterian Theological seminary, is president, and Harold F. McCor- mick, is chairman .of the- board of, When It Pours Visitors Will Be Dry at Fair lExtraordinary precautions to pro- lect the public against rainy weatber bave been announced by Lenox R. [<ohr, general manager of A Century of Progress. He outlined detailed plans to become effective immediate- ly, wbich will make it possible for anyone to visit or go home from tbe Fair in a driving ramn storm and not get a drop of water on him. "We have found," Mr. Lolir said, ini explaining bis program, "that if the weather threatens, people post- pone their visit to the exposition until the weather is more promising, in spite of the fact that rainy days are the best to do the FaWr with a mini- mum of discomfort from crowds." Canopies to Proteot An elaborate chain of canopies is now under construction at a cost of several thousands of dollars, wbicb will provide adequate cover for buge crowds both incoming and outgoing at aIl major points on the grounds. Service is being provided so that buses and taxis can deposit their pas- sengers under canopies which will extend f rom the taxi and bus stations tbrougb the gates and into mural bus stations within the Fair grounds. - Nigltt Shelter Provideul The large concessionaires and ex- hibitors bave agreed to provide spe- cial canopies from bus. stationis into the.ir exhibits and concession build- ings at tbeir own cost. Mr. Lohr.also explained tbat special areas will be set aside in each of tbe exhibit build- ings so that people can get in out of the ramn even after the buildings bavé been closed" for the niglit. E~x- tra buses will also be provided on Leif Ericson drive, principal street of tbe Fair, to pick up passengers wbo cannot get to tbe canopy system.
