'"rhe members OF school were much inter-
ested In the work OF the Vacation Schools and
with much pleasure contribute their mite to help
In such good cause The kindest way to aid
children IN becoming useful members OF society Is
to educate them, TO keep them busy and inter

this for the little ones OF the New York poor and
keeping them out OF harms way during the hot
summer days cannot he overcstimated.'
