The excursions to be givento mothers and

lance Of number Of liberal spirited citi-
zens the provisions for the first excursion
are provided in quantity that is perhaps
nearly if not quite sufficient.
il is the purpose of the ladies 10 not only
give these tired and heat-weary mothers
and children a day of fresh air free from the
cares and burdens of O contracted life at
home but also 10 furnish them with whole
some food for two meals while in their care.
Bread, milk, sandwiches. cold tea. lemon

of food will comprise the bill of fare.
Though simple and cheap in character 1t
will cost something TO feed these several
hundreds of people on four successive trips.
The ladies therefore appeal TO the charita-
bly, disposed 10 assist them in this worthy
cause.
THg TINES will receive contributions for
this fresh air fund aud promptly turn them
over to Mrs. William II. Peasants, treasurer
Of the fund
Mrs. George Clifford has been very eff
