THE SEINER! IS PROVING POPULAR NOW

That the settlement house on Rimbach avenue has a place in this community Is evidenced by its popularity among the boys and girls and the mothers who are Inquiring about the nursery accommodations. Now that the settlement house is well under way. Miss Virginia Brooks and her mother who "were largely instrumental in getting it started, have taken up their residence in West Hammond again, but are devoting as much time to it as possible. Thus far the place has-been crowded every night with boys and girls who find good pastime there. The workers in the institution are not losing sight of the fact, however, that while the little visitors are to Jpe entertained, the entertainment is to be educational primarily. Special nights are set aside for the girls exclusively. They are to meet next Tuesday night, when they will receive instruction In sewing. Last :. GIFTS FOB ME.
