'Treasure Tree': Lynn Bottum, Jim Knight and Tom Ufer (left to right) decorate a "Treasure Tree" with balls of wool yarn in which children from the first and second grades of the First Congregational Church school have wrapped tiny toys. The gifts will be sent to Algerian refugee centers in Tunisia and Morocco where mothers are being taught to knit. The toys will be given to refugee children. The refugee centers are maintained by the American Friends Service committee which has planned the yarn balls as a service project. Mrs. H. M. Crooks, jr., is superintendent of the local church school's primary department.

American Friends' New Office The American Friends Service Committee recently moved its Michigan area office in Ann Arbor from 1222 Woodlawn Ave. to these quarters at 1414 Hill. The building, originally a four-car garage, is located behind the Friends Center at 1416 Hill. It was stripped to its outer shell and refitted with inner walls and partitions of wood and glass, forming six offices. The new office is the result of a cooperative project of the American Friends Service Committee and the Ann Arbor Friends Meeting.
