It performs the double duty of keeping the youngsters off the streets, and occupied with something interesting to do each mornihe--and As well relieves busy mothers of the necessity for keep- ing an eye on their plsytime.

Msny of them talked their families out of sending them to camp or going away, for the summer on the grounds' that they wanted to go to the school.
