'kindergarten Workers Tour Europe
To Establish And Gain New Ideas
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON.-Although the kin-
dergarten was originated in Germany
90 years ago by Frederich Froebel, it
has flourished on a broader scale in
the United States than in Europe,
and America has been able to "ex-t
port" ideas on this branch of educa-
tion for a number of years.
Nevertheless, Europe has not been
depleted of idea sources. The sum-
mer lull in kindergarten activities is
being utilized by a number of Ame-
rican leaders in the training of little
folks to study conditions there and
to take part in the American dedica-
tion, at Lievin, France, of a national
shrine to their work.
The tour was arranged for friends
of the International Kindergarten
Union and the Kindergarten Unit of
Miss Annie Laws, Cincinnati philan-
tropist, who died July 1. The Kinder-
garten Unit of France was organized
during the war by the International
Union and the American Red Cross.
The shrine at Lievin, toward which
many Americans contributed, marks
the tenth anniversary of its work.
The unit has established play-
school "gardens of children" in the
devastated regions, many of them on
such an effective basis as to win the
praise of authorities in this country.
These and other kindergartens in
France, Germany and other countries
will be visited by the American party.
It includes such leaders as Miss Ella
Ruth Boyce, director of kindergartens
at Pittsburgh; Miss Stella Louise
Wood of Minneapolis, Minn., and Miss
