A resumption of touring toolc the class through the Happy Day Laundry-here floor 'space was really used to the greatest advantage.

As a climax to the convention the students attended the third an- nual banquet and meeting of the A. I. L. Club in the Rose Room of Hotel Cleveland. This, the largest club meeting ever held, proved to be a most enjoyable get-together for the A. I. L. Club members, the students, and the faculty of the American Institute of Laundering. Stanley Brock, Lloyd Peclc, and representatives of each class since the founding of the Vocational Training School in 1930, addressed the Club. Elbert R. Fitch, A. I. L.
