Children from Grant (Elementary) School were dressed in a variety of costumes depicting other nations in late April of 1922. Some of the clothing was undoubtedly retrieved from the children's own homes, perhaps relics from older generations. It is believed that the children, numbering 40, had sung and danced in a musical play, "A Meeting of Nations," before the Grant P.T.A. on April 28, 1922. The Grant P.T.A. had its biggest meeting of the year to support the 30-10 initiative which sought to equalize school funding. Grant School is located at 1018 North Prospect and was named for former President of the United States Ulysses S. Grant. (Tacoma Sunday Ledger, 4-30-22, D-7-article)
