discussed by the Board OF Visitors.
A special meeting of the board OF
visitors of the Associated Charities
was held on Monday afternoon. Plans
for country week work were discussed.
The country trips are TO be started in
earnest about tho first or second weel,
in July. The organization depends
upon the public for contributions tt
carry on this good work. Mira. William
ii. Hill is the chairman Of the countt,
week committee. Great care is takdn
to secure beneficial homes in tie
country with uplifting moral influences.
1t is desired to have the homes helpful,
both physically and morally, to The
mothers and children who are sent out.
1t is work that should appeal 10
those who are able to take summer re-
creation in that they can contribute to
the happiness Of othnrs through the
country week fund.
The meeting also took un the ques-
ton of play grounds for the children.
In these days Of diversified street
traffic, when the lives of the children
are often endangered, it behooyes
those who have the interests of the
children at heart to consider plans for
safe play grounds. In other cities open
lots are secured and fitted up as parks,
and public school grounds are left open
for the use of the children through the
long vacation. BY following some such
method as this, provision might be
made for play grounds for children 10
years of age and under. The women
we're glad TO know that pavilion is
to be erected in Kirkwood Park. viii.
mington has Brandywine Park and
other parks it is true, but the thing to
be remembered is that it is impossible
for the little tots whose mothers are
busy to get to the parks often. Should
the Associated Charities be able to ar
range for any such play grounds as
those desired, it is hoped to have sand
piles placed upon them. In these sand
piles tho little ones may play to their
hearts content.
Another subject of discussion before
the meeting was domestic laundry
plan in connection with tho Associated
Charities house. The intention is TO
have laundrying done there according
TO the home way of doing it. The
plan is to be further perfected.
