-- Exhibit -In 1889, Jane Addams, a social reformer in Chicago, Illinois, founded a settlement house
called Hull House, which provided child care, kindergarten, libraries, playgrounds, vocational and domestic training, and food services to poor city residents. It also sent visiting nurses to help care for the sick in Chicago's crowded neighborhoods.
At Hull House, young mothers practiced ways to care for their children-including the daily infant bath, which is illustrated in the photograph above. English-language classes, civic rights classes, and art classes were also offered. The settlement houses provided important services to the poor at a time when government and many churches did not provide them.
Many of the people who worked at the settlement houses also worked to outlaw sweatshop working conditions, to promote organized labor, and to secure workers' compensation laws.

When the dust reached the Florida's west coast, it increased surface water iron concentrations there by 300%, which then increased by tenfold the count of bacteria in the water.These bacteria caused a "red tide" which can kill some forms of marine life and causes serious skin and respiratory problems in humans.By using satellites to monitor Saharan dust clouds and bacteria blooms, scientists will one day be able to forecast red tides in areas that will be affected.
