proved morally, mentally and physically. These
LOO children were received by ninety seven dIennt
cities and towns. scattered throughout New-York,
Vermont New Hampshire, Massachusetts. New-Jersey,
Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Requests were alsd
received from Maine and Ohio but the distances vera
too long for the little ones to travel In addition,

That IS 10 say children who have visited the country
before and now return again the special invitation
OF their former hosts Hundreds of little New Workers
get their annual outing in this way every often
a lasting friendship springs up between the farmers
and their young guests, correspondence is main-
tanned throughout the year. and not infrequently The
parents of the children are induced To
move to the country and thus better
their condition, and increase the opportunities
of their children Then again. an invitation 10 spend
the Christmas holidays in the country IS not an un-
heard-oi thing The farmers pay tn fare both wsya
and thus the little fellows to what the country
looks like when Jack Frost is around.
