Home, Benton 1930 12th and Indiana Bell, Clifton 3165 NETTALEE WALDECK, '11, Binghamton, N. Y. Miss Waldeck is in charge of the Parish House of the Clinton Street Methodist Church, having oversight of its varied ac- tivities. The parish is approximately two miles long and one-half mile wide. The work of theuchurch is chiefly with the foreign speaking people, although there is an American constituency of perhaps 2,000. The estimate of the foreign-speak- ing population is between 10,000 and 12,000. The chief groups found are Slovaks, Poles, Lithuanians, Ukrain- ians, with a small scattering of Bohemians, Syrians, Italians and a few other racial representatives. A great many of these people have no religious affilia- tions, although there are six foreign-language churches in the parish. The social agencies at work .include a Day Nursery, Public bath House, a Clinic, Child Welfare Stations in connection with the public schools, a Polish reading room, and several playgroundS- FOI'ty-Seven per cent of the houses are owned by the occupants, the percentage of ownership being high- er among the foreign-speaking than among the native Americans. The Church has always been in the character- making business, that is our task, through preaching, visitation, Sunday School education, clubs and classes, athletics and games, lectures and literature.
