American Girls Program
Girls in grades 3 to 6 can have fun and learn about Kit at the next
American Girl program on Thursday, Nov. 1, from 4:15 to 5:45 p.m.

On cold winter evenings, Kit and her family would switch on the radio.
It might be music or it might be a suspenseful radio drama. Girls of
today can listen (and/or dance) to the hit songs of the '30s, play
games, create a funny paper wreath—the Depression was not all depressing.

Registration begins at 10 a.m. Monday, Oct. 22. You may register in
