= SEEKS T0 ARRANGE CHLDREN'S QUTING New Yok Fresh Air Fund Oftcial Visiting City Mrs. Maye Palmer Jago, fleld worker of the New York Heraid- Tribune Fresh Air Fund, is in New Britain at the Burritt hotel to ap- point a chairman and committee to care for the fresh air children sent from the Tribune this year. She has Just come from Farmington where | the following committee has been | arranged: Chalrman, Rev. Quincy Blakely; vice-chairman, E. G. Stew- art; committee, Rev. H. F. Cassidy, Re¥. Edward Roberts, Herbert Knox * Smith, Mrs. Stewart E. Phelps, Miss Helen Andrews, Miss Ethel Cross, Victor Malmberg, Miss Mary Rourke, and Miss Anna Andrews. Mrs. Jago has secured chairman and committees in the following towns in Connecticut: Danbury, New Milford, Kent, Canaan, Cornwall, Norfolk, Winsted, ‘Washington, Woodbury, Southbury, Colebrook, Torrington, Thomaston, Collinsville, Roxbury, Pleasant Valley, Bethel, Southington and Farmington. The Herald-Tribune fresh air fund is 51 years old this summer. Last vear 17,500 children among the poor of New York were given a vacation of two weeks. They were sent into New York state, Connecticut, Rhode island, New Hampshire, Vermont, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, and New Jersey. | There are 35,000 on the list this summer. They are children of the New York schools, who have none of the advantages of a real Ameri- can home unless the friendly people in the friendly towns, open their home and hearts to the ¢hildren of | New York's crowded tenements, In Rer plea to New Britain people and those living in adjacent towns, Mrs. Jago said: “Those of us who awaken in the morning with sun- shine streaming in our windows and on looking out see beautiful coun- try, graas, trees and flowers, have no conception of what a child living in a crowded tenement in the congest- ed district of New York feels as he looks out on the same such scene, and knows he can romp and play on the grass, climb the trees and pick the flowers for two whole weeks. “They awaken perhaps 50 weeks out of the year in two-room tene- ment, six or seven in the family, with a tiny gas jet to light the rooms, blank walls on all sides and only the street to play on. Is it any wonder then, that they think they will find the end of the rainbow when a settlement worker tells them that friendly people in a friendly town have invited them for a two weeks’ visit in the country, where they can play and romp at will and that the New York Herald-Tribune fresh air fund will pay their railroad fare to and from that paradise “Children of the tenements have never seen cows and their only idea of milk is in cans.” . All that is asked of the- town {8 to give these little people of the tenements two weeks' care in any two weeks in July and August. The children are given a thorough phy- sical examination by a reliable phy- sician the day before leaving New York, and a worker accompanies them to the town where they are to be entertained and comes for them at the end of two weeks. Mrs. Jago told. the story of a boy who was pulled off a garbage wagon in New York last week while trying to get some faded flowers. He said he wanted them for his mother who was sick. The worker who talked to the boy, bought a rose and went with him to see his mother. She found a family of seven occupylng two rooms, the mother il with an infected hand. The worker asked the boy if he would like to go to the country and pick 1eal flowers and real apples. He sald that he couldn't leave his mother. When he was told his mother would be taken care of, he replied, “Could I really pick them?” When the worker said “yes" tie boy, who was 10 years old, said, “Sure I'd go; I'd like to do that jor I never have picked anything in my life.” He had never been in the country. It is boys and girls of this type that the fresh air fund is trying to help get a two weeks' vacation. The fund is enrolling day by day the names of thousands of children sentenced by poverty to the priva- tions &L the tenements. Every name in the list is that of a child whom a welfare worker will be willing to swear needs a country vacation, but hasn’t a chahce of one unless the fresh air fund provides it. Out of these ‘thousands. the fund is plan- ning to select the 18,000 who most GUARANTEED MARKET WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY SPECIALS Choice Fricassee Chickens, Ib. 25¢ " Tender Swift's Fowl, Ib. .... 29¢ Small Smoked Shoulders, Ib. 15¢ “Armour’s Cloverbloom Butter, Ib. ... 49¢ U Roasts, Ib. .. 20c GUARANTEED MARKET Tel. 483 ° 70 WEST MAIN ST. need vacations.

DIPLOMAS REFUSED THO HEDIGAL MEN Tults ~ Withholds Certilicates1 From Students Medford, Mass., June 21 (A—Two Tufts college students who had ex- pected to be graduated at yester- day’s commencement were without | degrees today. Thomas J. Lalor, jr., of Millville, | failed to get his from the medical | school because he will not be the required age, until July 13. Isadore C. Zwerling of Brooklyn, N. Y., the second man to fail to receive a diploma, was not gradu- ated, it was said at the college, be- cause he had allowed his mother and sister to sleep in his room in a college dormitory last Friday night in contravention to one of the institution’s strictest rules. Zwerling was said to have told President John A. Cousens that his mother had been taken ill and he had suggested that she stay in his room rather:than return to their hotel in Boston. Despite a petition signed by mem- bers of the senior class, Zwerling 21, was not reinstated in time for the | commencement. It was announced that his degree had been ‘“post- poned.” Lalor took his situation philo- sophically despite the fact that his degree, which will be mailed to him om his birthday, will come one day too late for him to take the state medical board examination on July 12. He has started an interne- ship In a Springfield hospital and plans to try for his state certificate at the next test in November.
