Scope and content
Betty Bowers (back, left) is holding a Chinese fan and a toy rickshaw. Josephine Field (right) is holding both a painted box and a doll. Amy Langlow (front) is holding a glass fisherman's float. Both Josephine and Amy have on Chinese-styled robes. In December of 1936, the students in Miss Mary Nicholson's sixth grade class at Horace Mann Elementary School were studying the people and customs of China. The students in the class were encouraged to bring in items that they had at home that came from China.(T. Times 12/9/1936 p.5).
