H7223 Grace Methodist Episcopal Church unable to build more than the basement. This
church is a rapidly expanding community and should receive immediate help
to make it the community centre it should be. There is no place for social
activities and but one public playground in the entire town which has a
population of 40,000. Kansas City, Kansas

H7224 London Heights Methodist Episcopal Church. Totally inadequate to meet the needs -
The Sunday School overflows into the street. Not a single need of the
community can be met in more than meager fashion. Kansas City, Kansas

H7221 Windaro Methodist Episcopal Church. A mighty dingy light to set on a hill. It is
a disgrace to its general surroundings and doesn't meet requirements at
all. A complete social plant is greatly needed. Sunday School average
attendance over 200, almost impossible to seat them. Only Protestant
Church in population of 4,000. Kansas City, Kansas

H7222 Central Ave. Methodist Episcopal Church. Effective membership 1003 Sunday School
average attendance over 500. The primary department must be held in old
church in rear, which is a menace to health. The U.S. Gov't has ordered
the completion of the Central Ave. viaduct from Kansas City No. which will
immediately multiply the usefullness and the opportunity of this church. A
fine completely equipped social and community centre church should be built
here at once to cost $70,000 or $80,000 if we are to in any reasonable
degree, be effective in this field. Kansas City, Kansas

Kansas

H7217 Bethany Methodist Episcopal Hospital, perhaps the most outstanding feature of
Methodism in Kansas. There are 250 beds and the hospital is a great power
for good in the community. In 1917 Bethany took care of over 2,000
patients. It is a thoroughly modern institution and cost $325,000. Kansas
City, Kansas

H7218 Wesley Methodist Episcopal Church. This little mission church is in a growing
community filled with well paid workers in the mills and packing houses,
but who are hard hit by the requirments that they buy bonds and subscribe
to all war activities liberally. The membership is 150 and there is no
other Protestant Church anywhere in the neighborhood. The house next door
is indicative of the type of people in the nearby section of the city.
Kansas City, Kansas

make-up of the town and very little of its business activity

H7216 General view over business section and part of best residence
district of Atchison from the Mangelsdorf Grain Elevator. The town has a
population of 17,000 and there are many churches, but they are not really
equipped to meet the demands of the community for all around Christian
development. Atchison, Kansas

the other side of his place is a fish market, New York

ten minutes waiting, New York

H7138 Italian knife sharpener. This nice old man has a little stand with
his machine on the sidewalk on 20th St. between 5th and 6th Ave., where he
grinds daily the knives for the restaurants and the scissors for the
sweatshops. He has his steady customers in this locality as he is well
liked and does his work good. This picture was taken after he had examined
the broken scissors and told his customer the cost of mending it, New York

H7135 Italian knife sharpener who has [had] a little place on West 20th
St. between 5th and 6th Ave on the sidewalk for a long time. Everyone knows
him. He has his steady customers from all the restaurants in this locality
for whom he sharpens the knives, and from the sweatshops he receives
scissors to grind. This picture was taken when he was examining a broken
scissor from a customer, New York
