The activities of the League during the year were concentrated upon the 
Monday afternoon Stamp Club, under the direction of Mrs. Eva R. Bonney, 
and the Friday afternoon meetings at which illustrated lectures or educa- 
tional motion pictures were given. 
In May 1921, Mr. C. E. Olsen spoke to the children on “Seashore Life,” 
Mrs. F. W. Skinner on “ Switzerland,’ Master Norman Gardiner on 
“Staten Island Scenes.” 
During the summer months, Miss Ogilby, our educational assistant, super- 
intended a bead club on Mondays, a modeling club on Tuesdays, a hike on 
Wednesdays, a stamp club on Fridays, and a nature study club on Saturdays. 
In November 1921, Mrs. Jean Sanders spoke to the children on “ Hunting 
Elephants in India,’ Master Norman Gardiner on “ Alaska,’ and motion 
pictures of “ Bermuda” were shown. 
In December 1921, Mrs. Gould spoke on “ Indians,’ motion pictures of 
the “ West Indies” were shown, and the year closed for the children with 
a Museum party. 
In January 1922, motion pictures were shown twice. 
In February 1922, the children’s lectures were on Lincoln and Washington. 
In March, April, and May 1922, similar activities were continued, members 
of the staff supplying informal talks when no formal lecture was available, 
Mrs. Grace Egbert Clark being the general director.
