CHILDREN OF THE POOR

There is nothing that the average

mic in the woods, and no matter bow

to collect a crowd of young folks for
an outing in the woods The Rev.
and Mrs. r. w. Childs, approaching
the keen pleasure of such outings
for the youngsters who have little
opportunity for enjoying them have
made 1t an annual practice to take
out three or four hundred children
every year, and with the assistance
of the people who take an interest in
their charity work have always
made great success of this feature.
This year will be no exception to the
general rule, and the picnic will be
given August g. AS the weather is
warm, and soliciting is a hard task.
Mrs Chiles, who attends to this
feature of the work, has requested
