Morris R. Mitchell

Mr. Mitchell, State Teachers College, Florence, Alabama, describes the Friends volunteer work camps and their vacation possibilities for teachers interested in understanding and in helping to solve some of the social and economic ills of today. This article serves as a practical illustration of some of the things Mr. Mitchell discussed in “The Importance of Socially Useful Work in Childhood Education” (Childhood Education, January 1941), which is being translated into Spanish by the A.C.E. Branch at the University of Puerto Rico for distribution to Central and South American countries.
