CAMP G0OD WILL READY FOR OPENING First Party of Children and Mothers to Be Received for, Outings Wednesday. ©amp Good Will in Rock Oreek Park yesterday was rushing final preparations for the reception of the first party of children and mothers next Wednesday as guests of the Sum- mer Outings Committee of the Asso- clated Charities. Its tents are all up and Weather tested and its lasder is well stocked with good things to appeal to hungry appetites. Similarly, Camp Pleasant at Blue Plains, D. C., is now ready to care for its first party of colored chil- dren and mothers on Tuesday. This camp s also conducted by the Summer Outings Committee, both camps being financed by the Community Chest. At Camp Good Will, Miss Rachel Haviland again will be in charge this year, with a staff of experienced help- ers. Edward P. Lovett, assisted by Mrs. Lavett and a staff of helpers, will be in charge at Camp Pleasant. Large Number of Applicants. Visitors of the Assoclated Charitles in making their selections from the Jarge number of applicants for admis- sion to these camps have been guided by considerations of greatest need, and the families thus invited to a two- week vacation in camp are usually found to be those who might otherwise be entitled to relief. Thus it is felt that the camps as operated this season will tend to decrease the amount of direct family relief. Chairman John Joy Edison of the committee wishes the public to know that although the Community Chest stands back of these camps because of this relief character, they may receive special gifts by designation through the Chest or to the committee direct. Already a gift of $14 to pay for a vaca- tion for a tired mother has been re- ceived from “Miss H. A. K” A like gift will pay for a two-week outing for any mother or child. The comrait- tee will name a tent on request for any person or organization giving $35 or more. Meantime, more than a score of un- employed men have been given work preparing the grounds and buildings of the Children’s Health Farm of the Volunteers of Ameriea to receive the first contingent of underprivileged children, who will be given vacations at the farm starting on July 5, Capt. Arthur E. Wise, regional commander of the organization, announced last night. Estate Called Ideal. The 42-acre estate, known as Oak Lodge, near Ammendale, Md., just off the Baltimore Boulevard, has been taken over by the Volunteers for the Summer camp. The estate, which hes a 27-room mansion, is ideal for the purpose, Capt. ‘Wise believes, and he expects during the Summer to give more than 1,000 chil- dren a healthy, care-free vacation. The chiidren will be taken out in groups of 100 to 150 and will remain for one or two weeks.
