WOOLSTON’S _Study of the Population of Manhattanville_, or ROBERT A. WOODS’ _Americans in Process_, and note the plan followed in studying the characteristics of foreign-born groups. Some excellent suggestions can be had from CAROL ARONOVICI’S booklet _Knowing One’s Own Community_. Apply this plan to a survey of your own town or city. Some data can be had from the national and state census reports in the case of larger cities; in smaller communities the material must be gathered by field work. =3.
