Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: HYMN-singing is taught in kindergarten which starts at age 2 1/2. Older women like Mrs. Rachael Wipf take turns teaching the youngsters scripture and manners; which includes what is expected in terms of obedience to elders. The Kindergarten provides early training in the communal life of the Hutterites and also frees the children's mothers for work. The children speak only German until entering grade school.
