Summer Camp for the Young too bad there Aren t some for the become such a Well established institution look and All my kid Ever says is daddy Gimme a r the is if whoops balls Fly and bats swing on playgrounds summer holidays Are on but win children will still go to school but not work there. On Mon Day the school Board threw open 19 playgrounds for the use of the boys and girls of the City. There away from the streets they can play to their heart s con tent from 2 till 9 o clock every Day during july and August. They need not be afraid that they Are going Back to school again for no teachers will come out on the Steps of the locked buildings to swing a hand Bell calling everyone Back from Freedom in the Sun to books and sums and blackboards. For two whole months they will have the playgrounds to themselves under the care of supervisors Young men and Young women from the. Normal school and the University.

Monitors will be appointed on each ground from among the children. Hat it has As much of a place in the routine of american life As the school in Winter. As to the question whether it is Good for the children i Don t hink there can be any doubt about hat. After All we were not de signed to live in houses. It was Only after we got hairless and Veak and lost All our natural protestations that we sought shelter in doors. I agree that our Superior mentality and ingenuity in design ing Protection and heat and the other appurtenances of indoors have added to the length of human life and that we have better tie Alth and More Comfort especially in the feet than the naked Sav age in the Woods.

In sending boys and girls to Camp i advise the same prelim Inary precautions As when they Are going to school. Each one should be vaccinated against diphtheria typhoid fever and smallpox. In Camp typhoid fever is the most important because although Camp directors Are very careful about their water and milk Supply slip ups will occur and individual prophylaxis is the safest Way. in Camp will learn not Only a great Deal of Woods lore jut also hygienic Aid emergency treatment artificial res. Pira Tion. We just had an example of the proficiency of the boy scout s training when in my own City Sev eral persons were struck by Light Ning on a Golf course. Boy scouts were in the and immediately began carrying out artificial respiration by the approved prone pressure method. One Man s life was undoubtedly saved by their knowledge and promptness. Probably the Best All round exercise for All parts of the body is swimming and All Camps make a specially of that. There is no bet Ter appetizer than open air no bet Ter cure for insomnia than sleep ing under the stars. Young people need neither appetizer nor hypnotic fortunately but for their elders who Are troubled that Way i recommend two weeks in the Woods.
