MP FOR BOYS 10 = "BRING BACK HEALTH panions and that is the great trouble of sending boys to camps where there is no scientific supervision of the boy from every standpoint. I look for great benefits to come from such Wildflowers' in Loop institutions as Camp Gray." | The three children of Edward Kop- Founes Gloves Stetson Hats per, 220 Wood court, Wilmette, Ed- | ward and Robert, the 5 year old twins, and Thomas, 3 years old, | wandered away from home Sunday. They said they met a man in the j woods near their home, and he paid their way on the "L" to Chicago. Then another man gave them a ride ton a Madison street car. "We was goin' to Sunny school. Then Bobbie said: 'Why go to Sunny school? Let's pick wild flowers." So we got on a choo-choo an' a man paid for our ride." Thus Eddie explained their pres- ence in Chicago. A woman found them vainly looking' for wild flowers in the Northwestern depot. ~ Camp Gray, Saugatuck, Michigan, To Take Care of 300 Undernourished Chicago Breadwinners THE ADVERTISING MAN : IS BETTER, THANK YOU The urgency of assistance for the undernourished boys of Chicago, especially in families where they are needed as breadwinners, is shown in the records of the Employment Cer- 'tificate Bureau of the Board of Edu- ~ cation. Dr. Emma M. Appel, medical examiner of the bureau, told of a number of pathetic cases of young- ~ sters eager to help support their . families who have applied for work- ~ ving certificates, but could not be given them because of their physical ~ condition. Nathan, a Jewish boy, who will be 16 years of age in a few months, ap- plied for a certificate the other day. He weighed only 72 pounds. The youngster cried when he was told that he was too small to work, he was so anxious to help support the family.

Evanston 354 EVANSTON Just West of the Hoyburn There still remains with us an advocate of the old school of advertising. This is good. A man sauntered into the offices of the Winnetka Talk this week bearing the request that the public of Winnetka be an- prised of his readiness to take care of all kinds of household work, from cleaning cisterns to polishing furniture, "No display," he ordered. "Here's my copy. It "ran" in a Freeport paper six years ago. Peter Fish, a Chicago photograph- It's modest and deserves a er, brought the three explorers modest position in your paper. Chicago, brought the three explorers Make it 1x1 and be sure not to a Chicago newspaper office and to get it on the front page." their father was notified. He took Fade out--the editor caught them home. The twins say they the swooning advertising man. want to go downtown again some day. Neckwear Desertion Another youth had a sad story. His father deserted the family seven years ago, and took with him the! baby girl of the household. She died | 'soon after the desertion. The grief over her death affected the mother's mind. Since then the grandmother | has been supporting the family on | $4.50 a week. The boy weighs only 74 pounds. His heart is bad, and he is | not strong enough even to deliver telegrams. Still another lad of 14, weighing only 53 pounds, recently applied for a working certificate. This "youth has shouldered his mother's anxieties, especially for the past three years since the death of his father. They had a mother's pension for a year, but now that the boy is 14, that will cease. These are only a few examples of cases that daily come to the atten- tion of the Employment Certificate ~ Bureau. An opportunity to rebuild about three hundred of such under- fed boys will be afforded this sum- mer at Camp Gray Saugatuck, Mich- igan, under the supervision of the ~~ Forward Movement association. These boys will be taken to the camp, given proper food, regulated rest, and the right amount of exercise, and will be returned to their homes in Chicago physically fit to become breadwinners for their families. The Forward Movement is seeking to raise $35,000 for this purpose. This sum, it is estimated, will take care of at least three hundred boys and rebuild them to become healthy, useful citizens. Dr. W. R. P. Emerson, of Boston, considered the greatest nutrition ex- pert in the country, is spending a week in Chicago to show to the pub- lic school system the need. for a ~ "nutrition department."

The school and the home are the places to do this. About thirty per cent of the children in the country are undernourished, and we can get them well. Tt will ~~ take an average of ten weeks, but ~ nearly every child can be brought to normal, if we can get a nutrition department in the school system in every city and town in the country. "It is not alone the poor that need ~~ attention, in fact, in Chicago we ~~ found a higher percentage of mal- nutrition among the rich. The Stock- yards district, where one would ex- pect the children of the poor would be among the worst of the underfed. we found the lowest percentage of ~ undernourishment. The potential ~ causes for wundernourishment are physical defects, lack of home con- trol, over-fatigue, improper food habits and improper health habits. Poverty is not an essential cause, nor is riches. Both contribute, however. Heredity and obscure diseases also are only secondary. We find as much undernourishment among the rich as the poor. The children of the so- called well-to-do are the best nour- ished. "In places like Camp Gray the great benefit is the supervision of 'the exercises and rest periods, as well as the diet. The youth who is below normal should not be allowed to exercise like his sturdier com- Finest Creamery. The very best we can buy. Per pound STRICTLY FRESH. Every one guaranteed. Per Dozen . ......
