Toy Making. Members of Junior Red Cross, District of Columbia, making toys for foreign children. While many of these toys are made in manual training classes where the most complete equipment is provided, it has been found possible to make them in the regular class room. In some grades boys have even made most attractive toys from cigar boxes, a pen knife being their only tool. The designing, tracing, cutting out, assembling and painting of the toys make problems in hand work which are intensely interesting to the boys
