Little Ones.

A high tribute to the efficacy of the
fortnight of open air, sunshine and
wholesome food afforded at Camp Good
VIII was paid by DR.. Joseph M. Heller
today. DR.. Heller accompanied the sec
who went to the camp Wednesday, ex-
aiming all the children. He will be
the visiting physician at the camp dur
ing the next two weeks.
"Marasmus, malnutrition and the in
testinal diseases Of summer. which d.
rectly or Indirectly are the cause Of
thousands of deaths yearly. are to a
large extent preventable If the right
step is taken at the right time" DR..
Heller said today. speaking of his ex-
perience at the camp. The right time
in the life of many of these children is
good, wholesome food, cheerfulness
and recreation afforded by the Asso-
ciated Charaties at Camp Good Will.
and in many cases It is q real factor
1.-THE majority Of these children are
anaemic, frail, poorly nourtshed and
physically undeveloped, and it is inter-
esting and remarkable to observe what
so short time as two weeks will do
toward the betterment Of their general
condition.
1.-THE health, vigor, power of resistance,
happiness and usefulness of these little
ones as citizens of the future are deter
mind in no small degree by this outing
afforded by the good people of Wash
ington. In looking over the hundred or
more children submitted for examination
preliminary to their admission to Camp
Good Will I am impressed with the
thoroughness and care with which the
cases have been selected; ones that
seemed most in need Of the healthful en-
vironments of the camp and country
