This -unusual | community occupying J2OO acres of fertile dllinoiri prairie is a city unto itself located 38 miles west of Chicago. It is known ill over the world as the Child CUy. It has its own homes, schools, chtirch, fire department, hospital, bank, post office stores farm, and stadium. i Mooseheart was founded upon the educational concept that: ‘‘Every child is entitled to at least a high school education and instruction in a trade.” This concept of education is accepted by the educative world as axiomatic; ; Mooseheart's purpose is to provide a home and school for the children of deceased ‘members of the order and its was originally restricted to children of this cate■gory. In recent jyears, however. Mooseheart service has \ # been broadened so that it is now available to motherless children of Moose members. 5 Whenever possible, the mother is admitted to Mooseheart along tvith her children. There are no the children being permitted free expression of their Individual personalities in the pf clothing. Living conditions of the children at Mooseheart are' like those in a fine American home. Small groups live in modern, home-like surroundings, not in dormitories.

childreri of Mooseheart, sports, recreation, and religious\ training are combined with academic and vocational training to produce a well-balanced 1 schedule. Mpo'se- - heart’s football,' basketball, and baseball teams have won nationwide* acclaim for their prowess as. well as their fine sportsmanship. Its resident chaplains, both Catholic and Protestant, minister to the religious requirements of the children, each tn the faith which prevailed in their former homes. Scholastics at Mooseheart are cohducted along the same principles as the normal city school system. Its high school is fully accredited. Every child at Mooseheart receives vricational training, that he or she may be qualified to earn a livelihood from the day of graduation. : F \ • < . L ' VInstruction is provided in 16 practical and useful trades. Among the more modern vocations taught now are an engineering course in air-conditioning -for boys, and dress designing courses for the girls.
