It is in no wsense A place where certain children will be taken merely to “have a good time.” It will be this year, more than ever before, a heautiful spot where only those who might bs handi- capped through short, unhappy lves, by physical weakness, or only those whose days are perhaps numbered, will be taken to gain health and strength and be made happy under the natural treatment of good food, cleanliness, rest and play properly suggested The inspiration of the camp is not one of #mug benevolence to “give the children of our city a good tim Tt inspiration moves the earnest hearts of those back of It to glve certain un- dernourished, sick children of New Britain a chance to have a good time through Iife by becoming well and strong to become fine, contented and deserving citizens. The reports of the meeting at which plans were made say that only chil- dren exposed to tubereculosls, under weight for height 7 per cent. or more, undernourished and acnemie or phy- slcally defective will be taken to the camp. Tt would be splendid if all the children of the city who otherwiae would not have a chance for a cov&s of weeks in the country under such fine conditions could have a chance to go to the camp. This is impossible, as there must be a limit. And so, deep- 1y concerned to see to it that the chil- dren who need most to have this rest and chance for a strong life, get that chance, the committee in charge has turned its sympathetic attention to those little sufferers. That the amount of money necessary to give them this chance will be forthcoming when the time comes there is as little question as there {s that the people of this city have warm, understanding hearts and generous hands where the welfare of our children is concerned. onal and lo- the OHAUTAUQUAS, CARNIVALS, ‘We have not reached the stage of the modern disapproval of old cus- toms and institutions, that prevents approving the Chautauqua.
