The school soon out- grew the Cherry street quarters and | was transferred to the ground floor |of the Methodist church where it has remained to the present time. The pupils meet for one hour & week, About half the time is given to the sewing and the other half to program of songs, stories, verses and prayer. The program themes | vary from week to week, Some of the subjects which have been used jare: “Cleaning Up the House,” “Per- | Cleanliness,” “Kindness,” “Service,” *“Obedienc “Respect- ing the Rights and Property of others,” “Love for all Nationalities and Ra in a word—qualities which make for a well rounded Christian character. The girls en- joy singing and look forward to the storics, and by these means many daily lives are taught, The method of teaching the sew- ing is a good one and came original- Iy from the Schanffler school.

When the exercises on exhibition day are over the children are given a treat of some kind in the way of refreshment: Tor the past twe years the Mis. sionary society has conducted a branch school in the Farmington avenue district for girls who are too far out to come to the center for sewing school. Two rooms were rented, furniture was given, includ- ing a sewing machine, and an or, was loaned. Two clubs have heen organized, each meeting once a week. The “Lend-a-Hand" club is made up of 10 high school girls under the direction of Mra. R. H. Fuller and Mrs. R. 8 Hawthorne. The girls hatve learned basketry, embroidery, machine sewing, etc. They have also made curtains for two of the rooms. They have a short ritual and conduct their husineas in orderly {fashion. Thix club s connected with the Junior Achievement work. The girla won several awards at the Junior Achievement exhibition at the state fair last year, They will send one of their honor pupils to |the Juntor Achievement summer | school in pringfield this year. The other Farmington avenue club is a Eroup of younger girls under the di- rection of Mrs. Albert Natzke, They are called the “Happy Helpers” elub and there are about 15 in the group.

The piano-accordion has heen termed “the most wonderful inven- tion in portable instruments.” Some 15 years ago the world famous ac- cordionist, Pictro, captivated large | audiences with a new instrument which he called the piano-accordion. The first instrument of this kind made specially for him, in accor- dance with his own design, and pre- sented to the public for the first | time in San I'rancisco. The instru- | ment, however, has bhecn subjected to an erroncous classification as a objectionable and unhonorable in- strument, so much so that many people have formed a faulty opinion about it. Rev. Mr, Nestander has| done much to clevate the piano- | accordion from a doubtful and | questionable ranking te an undis- | puted position among the accepted | concart instruments. Educated at Augustana college and theological seminary, the Rev. Mr. Nestander was connected with the Anugustana concert hand for six | vears as a cornet and trumpet solo- ist. During that time he took up | his study of the piano-accordion and hecame so attached to the instru- ment that he soon mastered it. He has travelled extensively with sev- 1 musical organizations and has appeared in numerous recitals both during his coll career and after his ordination into the ministry. He holds the distinction of heing the only clergyman in the country who has specialized in the piano-accor- dion. ¢ | Six world records for hackstroke The Rev.
