Catholic Women's League Day Care Nursery 1515 N. Market
Date

Description
They might not all become the First Lady of the land but these girls (shown above) at the Catholic Women's League's Selby Place House, 1023 Selby Place, apparently are determined to knit as well as Mrs. Roosevelt does. Miss Lucille Schaeffer (standing) is showing them how it is accomplished. The magic that's in books appeals to these two little girls (lower photo). The league daily looks after many children while their mothers are employed. The League was organized for war work in 1917, and after the war, turning to the pursuits of peace, organized the Selby Place House for the benefit of the children of the district.
