In addition to the very impor- tant fact that it then became a part of our college life, it has been the scene of many interesting educational changes. The years 1913 and 1914 are red letter years in its history. In 1913 Miss Elizabeth Daley became principal of the Haines, and under her guidance several great enterprises have grown up in it. In this year the school was organized as an industrial center, when manual training, sewing, and cooking were given an important enough place in the cur- riculum to fit those who could go no farther than the elementary school, for a place in the industrial world. In this same year the open window room was started, a little counti ' y school, really, where tubercular and anaemic children of all ages hold their classes. Breakfast and luncheon are served each day, and every child is supplied with a cot on which to take his nap. The open window room is supported by Cyrus McCormick. The Haines School is also a pioneer in the penny lunch room move- ment. In January, 1914, Miss Daley, with no outside help began this enterprise. A success from the beginning, the lunch room now serves over six thousand lunches every month. The Haines District offers very little in the way of amusement to the small Italians living there, and the little recreation they do have, comes from the big school house on Twenty-third Place. We who have worked there realize that they greatly need to be made happy, for they are little pilgrims, lonesome for their warm, sunny Italy. s Florence Rciiistciii.

Carter Practice School EIGHT years ago our Normal Faculty discovered an ideal school. This is where our Normal students ought to learn to teach, for here the ideals which we have been setting up in theory have been attained in reality, said our Faculty. This ideal school was the Carter, then located at 61st Street and Wabash Avenue. Every one who knew the Carter School at that time realized that it was the unique Carter spirit which had captivated our Faculty. However, this spirit was then but budding; it has grown and grown until now it is in the blossoming stage of a hardy perennial. Those of us who were fortunate enough to spend ten weeks here, were impressed by the oneness of this feeling which radiates from the principal to the teacher, fi ' om the children, and from the work of the entire school. All of us felt it our first day at the Carter School, but it took most of us the greater part of ten weeks to begin to analyze this feeling or Carter spirit. The Carter spirit is a harmonious and delightful balance in all of the work achieved by the unceasing cooperation on the part of the principal and teachers. Cooperation was the key-note to the success of the enter- tainment given this spring by the children of the Carter School. It meant co-operation between the various grades and departments ; every art department was called upon to contribute to the program, music, danc- ing, language, color, design and dramatization. In short, this spring fes- tival was a concrete example of the efficiency and reality of the work conducted by the most efficient of teachers and principals in our city, Miss Lane. EJiui Tenuis. 7
