Excerpt from Vacation Schools
In the Cleveland schools the children pay one half the cost of the material used in making the articles which they take home. In Haverhill a considerable sum was realized from the sale of baskets at the end of the term. In most schools, however, after the usual closing exhibition of the vacation school work, the children are given the articles they have made.
