Show ! Longfellow's Cranddaughter. i Few of us are there indeed who do ::; not know and love the poems of Henrj i ; Wadsworth Longfellow, especially that v. known as "The Children's Hour," in : which the poet gave the world a 1: glimpse of his own happy fireside cir cle. The poem referred to his chil-,r chil-,r dren, but some of us do not know that i: the grandchild of Longfellow, while i- not able to express herself in verse, n is no less a lover of children and as the . wife of the principal of a large New e;- York school is putting her interest and understanding of children to a practical prac-tical test in conducting the kitchen of S" a settlement school. Mrs. Hutchinson, as she is now, is ' well qualified for her work, not only having studied social problems abroad, i- but also having passed through the Training school of the Boston Chil-r;. Chil-r;. dren's hospital and a post-graduate : r ' course at Johns Hopkins. Since then, k she has been at the disposal of charit-n:- able institutions in New York and as iv she says, she attends to the children's i bodily needs. |
