Eve state in the Union, as we!l as Alaska, Hawaii, and the District of Columbia, reported some sort of Child Health Day activity. The Fourth Annual Report of the Chief of the Children’s Bureau, is- sued by Julia'C. Lathrop in 1916 peinted out that “May Day has long and pleasant tradition amon all English-speaking children. 1( might well be choseni by their elder as a day which should be not oni a festival but also year by year a celebration of some increase in ‘he common store of practical wi dom with which the young life o (he Nation is guarded by each com- munity.” The suggestion did not bear fruit until after the World War. The active interest of the Ameri- can Child Health Association was responsible for making the annuul celebration Nation-wide. - SPRING INFORMAL GIVEN BY B.P.W.C.

But I was forced out of baseball 1 then in the depression I lost everything but my hat.” For ten years Fohl successively was manager of Cleveland,. St Louis and Boston of the American league. His teams had good rec- crds—with the Browns in 1822 he Iost the pennant to New York by balf a game. He was with Toronto in 1927--and that was al! “I couldn’t get another baseball job,” he says. “The majors didr want me and the minors, they'd say, ‘he’s a major leaguer and he'd want too much money. So it's been a gas station for Lee Foh! Fehl succeeded J. L.
