Supt, Wanw luvl- JIMMQ Mada dqd 14mm .The question is often asked regarding the number of na- tionalities represented in the school enrollment. N0 survey has been made recently, and the nationality lines have become so blurred by inter-marriage that. it is difficult to speak Wllh accuracy on the subject. There was a time when there were upwards of twenty differ; em; nationalities represented in the school. Finnish and Swed- ish predominated, with varying numbers of other nationalities. In 1914, a survey showed 50 Finnish children in the High School. and 353 in the Washing- Schcol, 174 in the McKinley Sghools, 157 in the Jackson ton SchcuolV a grand total of 734. All other nationalities tov taled 588. The Harbor Schools are an outstanding example of how democracy works at its best. The Americanization process has gone on intelligently, smoothly, and effectively dur- ing the years so that today we believe we are wholly justified in saying that the schools and theicommunitv are exemplify, ing in a high degree the spirit of all for each and earh for all. 'The crowded condition in the kindergarten has been relieved by the appointment of Mrs. E Edwin Miller to assist Miss Tilton in the fnrenoons and Mrs. Fred Hamm to assist in the afternoons. Greater com- fort and efficiency would be gained if an additional rnom were available, Since it is not. the next best plln is to have two teachers work in the same room-with the progrnm so planned as to vause a mimmum of intnrfvrence, Then: are ninety children enrolled at pres- ent.
