and Thoughtful Ones.
THE STARS FREE ICE
AND OUTING FUND.

Wv L
brings the STARS Free Ice and Outing
Fund up to S356.53 twenty four hours
after contributions were solicited. This
Is most satisfactory beginning and
augurs well for the fund this season.
1t makes possible the first of the spe-
cial outings which proved so popular
last year. This outing will be known
as the L. s. Plaut & Co. outing. The
following letter was received from the
generous donors:
STAR Free Ice and Outing Fund:
"Gentlemen-We take pleasure in en-
| closing check for one hundred dollars
| (s1o0.00) TO defray expenses for one spe-
cial day in connection with STAR Out
| ing Fund
I'VE hone the interest in this fund
| will be intensified SO that many more
may enjoy its benefits during the hot
days of summer. Very truly yours
IL S. PLAUT & CO."
The STARS fund was further aug
mented yesterday with gifts from it's
loyal and regular supporters. Valentine
Braun and Sheriff William Harrigan.
Mr.. Braun contributed $50 and Sheriff
Harrigan $25.
Then five dairy firms today cheerfully
promised to supply all of the milk
needed on the various outings to be
held this summer The following con-
Germs make up this roll of honor:
The Alderney Dairy Company, Seller
| Brothers. Henry F. Backus, Fairfield
Dairy Company and the Raritau
Creamery Company. 1t is most sig
niflcant that business concerns which
might profit by such outings as are
made possible by the STARS fund
should be among the first to offer such
substantial aid. The same situation
obtained last year.
A great many persons have doubtless
already made up their minds to sup
port this excellent charity, which has
so emphatically proved it's practical
worth in two previous seasons. These
potential patrons are urged to send in
their contributions at once. The force
of their example may influence many
others to enlist on the side Of humanity
In this battle for the babies. AS the
fund goes up by leaps and bounds an
ticipation will make it easier for tired
mothers to bear their burdens. They
will have before them the certainty
that relief awaits them in the crisis OF
sultry summer, when terrible heat
threatens the lives of their ailing little
ones.
This relief, which rapidly growing
fund will promise, Is two-fold. 1t will
mean free ice to those who are unable
to purchase that necessity of we'll
ordered households. and long, cool sails
at regular intervals to Coney Island
and other points at the gateway to the
sea.
A great many charitably inclined per-
sons hesitate to contribute to many
charities because the processes OF those
charities are not sufficiently open to
quickly impress their worthiness upon
the general public. The STAR free ice
and outing fund affords such persons
an ideal outlet for their worthiest I'm
pulses. This benefaction has long
ceased to be an experiment. Its work.
ings may be critically examined at any
time, and it's warmest advocates are
the physicians and nurses who have
accompanied the outings or who have
seen their little patients. despite their
efforts wasting away In unshaded
tenements, blossom again with health
after sea journey such as the fund
makes possible.
The charity Is strictly and carefully
safeguarded against the professional
mendicant in that the tickets for the
outings and the free ice are distributed
by the city dispensary, the district ply
sicians, the Babies Hospital and other
hospitals where there are clinics for
children. 1t is impossible to impose
upon the experts who distribute the
tickets and 1t Is equally impossible ex-
cept in rare instances that the worthy
be overlooked.
