effects Of a long lack of good food and

also observed which interfere with the In

JOY FOR LITTLE ONES
NAVY YARD OUTING FOR CHI
DREN GREAT SUCCESS.
Day of Fun, Frolic and Ice Cream
Galore, Then Dip in
the "Briny."

Employees of the navy yard entertained
at Chesapeake Beach yesterday 633 Wash
ngton children and their mothers, as has
been their practice for several years.
At 10 o'clock in the morning a special
train. crowded with happy young people,
left Chesapeake Junction, and from that
time until the picnickers started home, at
D O'Clock in the afternoon. the day was
one long round of delight for the little
guests Everything came the way of the
city-bred youngsters. They had com
paratively cool day, to begin with, and the
little sprinkle of rain did not bother them
at all; for after the continued heat of the
previous few days in Washington any
change welcome.
Sea bathing was one of the great events
of the day, and when the little ones had
been rugged out in bathing suits they
spfsshed to their hearts content in the salt
waves that lap the sands of Chesapeake
Beach. For most of them this plunge into
1.-The brny' was a novel experience, and
they made the most OF it. PealS of happy
laughter mingled with the surprised squeals
of youngsters who got the regulation
duckirg. and one unhappy lad found his
clothes gone when he came out to resume
life on dry land. 1t did not take long,
however, to muster up enough garments to
fill the deficiency, and he returned nome
clad and in his right mind.
Ice Cream for All.
Food was no small part of the entertain
ment, and the children had all that they
could surround, nor did it seem to hurt
them a bit. Just one little item of the
feast spread before them was sixty gallons
of Ice cream. That vanished like the dew
before the sun, and nearly all of the young
sters had, for once at least, all that they
could eat of that nourishing and deectable
compound. Sandwiches, fruit and cake
were dispatched to the same destination
as the ice cream, and received as genuine
and whoe-souled welcome.
Heavily ballasted with victuals and drink,
the guests of the navy yard men were then
presented with tickets to the various
amusements at the beach. Everything on
the boardwalk was open to them and they
had the time of their lives. The madly
galoping steeds of the merry go-round were
ridden to a standstill the scenic railway
bore crowds of jubilant little folk and pop
corn and peanut stands furnished edibles
to fill in the chinks that might be left after
the extensive feast not long before.
Secretary Weller of the Associated Chart
ties. assisted by twelve ladies, was in charge
Of the young people. The navy yard COM

sion, also hand to that every
thing went all right The members Of the
committee were A. ]. Berries, chairman;
