They'll Say I? * * *% * s Easy to Get Fat! * % & Go to a Farm ‘nd Drink Milk and Get Plenty of Rest Like These City Kids Did * % *% By E. P. Chalcraft “I galued four pounds—goody!” “You never.” “I did too.” “Weill, you walt and I'll show you. I'm going to eat LO1S!” No shylock was ever more con- cerned over a pound of flesh than the youngsters at the Hollywood fresh air camp, who were regretfully preparing Monday to be bundied back to their homes. They must make room for another batch of lucky un- lucky children. Unlucky because one must be physically under par to enter the camp, but mighty fortunate to be picked to attend it. Hollywood fresh alr camp is a practical demonstration of what sim- ple, wholesome food and proper supervision can accomplish in build | ing up undernourished little bodies under conditions that can, ‘in the main, be duplicated in any home. The camp is conducted under the auspices of the King County Anti- |Tuberculosis league, the home eco- | nomics department of the University of Washington and ¥. 8, Stimson, of the Hollywood dairy farm. Miss Martha Koehne, of the home economics department, and Miss Kathleen Murchison, dietician of the Anti-Tuberculosis league, are the supervisors of the camp. The rest- |dent worker, who lives 2t the camp! |with the children, is Miss Dorothy | Kuebler, senior in hume economics | at the University. | Milk, butter, eggs, cottage cheese * * Were the HoNywood tarm that bdufld up the strength and weight of the ema- ciated children. “We cook everything tn miTk that we can,” Miss Koebne explained. “Plenty of good food, with more rest than the average child gets, are two of the big factors in weight build- ing.” ONLY ONE FAILED TO GAIN WEIGHT Of the 19 children who have stayed thruout the first four-week session only one has failed to gain in weight. Even she tis now picking up, and will be kept on thru the next camp. The children went out June 20. In the four weeks they put on a total of 72 pounds of flesh. The girls beat the boys. They do not lose so much energy in strenuous play, it was explained. ‘ The girla averaged a gain of 4.6 pounds each--the boys 2.3 pounds— in the four weeks. The best case was « girl who weighed 84 pounds when she en- tored the camp. Four weeks lat er sho balanced the beam at 901%, pounds, a gain of 61%, She ought to weigh 96 or 97 pounds, which ts normal for her height and age, One little girl was so homesick for the first week that she had no appe- tite at all, She just did hold her own in weight, But after the first seven deys she felt better, her appe- tite increased, and ehe showed @ con- sistent gain, A boy just would play too hard. * 8 & Pale, Skinn: Do they look happy? And healthy? These youngsters gained an average of nearly a pound a week at Hollywood fresh air camp. At the left—Miss Dorothy Kuebler, resident worker.

Miss Kuebler saw to it that he rested sev- eral times a day, and his chart line began to climb, When they first went out to the camp, some of the boy got hold of green apples and cherries, They didn't feel wel for several days, but when their appotites returned they gained in weight like the rest. Plenty of good food and not too much play—that is what Miss Kucb- ler insists upon, The children get up at 730 a m. Breakfast is at 8 Then come the chorea about camp, and at 10 an hour's rest for those that need it. At 11, Dr, Kewple, as Miss Kuebler is affectionately called, attends to the ills and ailments of her active} family, Dinner is at 12:30. When another rest period, followed by play or a walk in the woods, Supper at 6 and to bed at 8:30. A full and busy day. What is done at Hollywood camp can be done in any average home. When cach child ‘4s returned the parents are furnished with a com: plete set of menus their boy or girl has had, and full data as to results in welght gaining. Then they can carry on. A new group of 15 children will enter the camp Wednesday. Five of the old will remain, for further care. It is pretty niece to go home again, but those who left Monday are go ing to miss Dr. Kewpie.

Some- what to your right is the Ce- dar river. Coming down to- ward you are the sharp moun- tain valleys that contain those streams. The three Snoqualmies, of course, join to form the stream which flows over the magnificent falls between North Bend and Seattle and later into Puget sound at Everett. The Cedar river at one time ran into the Snoqualmie, but it was balked at some stage in its career by the prank of a vast glacier. Scientists tell me there were, in the days before the Indians pos sessed this land, two sets of glaciers at work in that region. One set was chiseling out the valleys that today point down at North Bend. Another was crossing their path in northand- south direction, perhaps coming off from Mt. Rainier. At any rate, it or some other gigantic force laid down across those de@p, mountain valleys a great, rounded barrier of loose material. Go to North Bend today and you can see this ridge, hundreds of feet high, stretching across country for several miles. The forks of the Sno- qualmie cut their way thru and pro ceeded untroubled to salt water. But the ‘Cedar was dammed off and forced to veer further southward. It swung around Rattlesnake mountain and now goes to the Sound by way of Renton, eee Edgewick began life 15 years or so ago. It lay a half dozen miles the other side of North Bend, near the south branch of the Snoqualmie, and close to the great glacial ridge, or moraine, that had blocked the Cedar from joining the Snoqualmie W.
