Georgetown gardens have never pro- duced a finer blossom than that which |is now beginning to bud from the ideas which prompted the Garden Pilgrim- ages held for the past three Spring seasons. In a room flooded with sunshine on an upper floor of the old Salvation Army headquarters, on Jefferson street, in Georgetown, a group of small boys and girls of pre-school age assemble every morning at a quarter to 9. There until noontime, while they play and romp and sing, they are quietly being taught reliance and concentration by a splen- didly equipped young woman, Miss Winona Rorby. who has had several yeers of special training in social serv- ice work. Neglect Ts Correoted. All the children, though but 4 years of age, have one or two smaller brothers and sisters at home, who must be cared for by the mother, upon whom rests the work of the household.

The morning passes rapidly, and each child returning home carries back to mother, who has accomplished many things during her little boy or absence, a lesson which is bound to Rll’l good fruit in the school years ahead. ‘Members of the Georgetown Chil- dren’s Committee are: Mrs. R.
