Today is District day at Camp Pleas

w. ID. Jarvis is chairman is inviting all
of the friends of the camp to visit it and
see for themselves the good work that
is being done. Camp Pleasant is part of
the work of the summer outings com
mitee of the Associated Charities. and
its object is to provide the same sort
OF rest. recreation and instruction for
the colored mothers and children that
the white mothers and children receive
at Camp Good Will. This camp is man
aged entirely by group of colored
workers. who have also done much to
raise the money for its support. Many
churches have subscribed and various
organizations as we'll as private indi-
viduals
The camp has never been in better
condition nor more beautifully located
tnan this year. Thirty tents are ar
ranged around a crest of high hill
IN the midst of a pine grove. and here
the little children of the alleys are given
an opportunity not only to get strong
and well physically. but are learning
many lessons which will help them to
become useful citizens in the future.
Each child is carefully examined by
physicians before being taken TO the
so that it may be corrected later
on. The medical directors of the camp
are Drs c. w. Childs and George w.
Cabaniss. They have been assisted by
Drs. Martin, Charles A. Tignor. Albert

Much of the success OF the camp is

dates eighty guests. and the trouble
this year has been not to find eighty
guests. but to decide among the many

emit
A flag is gwen to the tent that is
found in the best condition. There are
two flags, one for the boys and one for
the girls, and there is much rivalry AS
to which tent shall get the flag The
rest of the day is spent in bathing and
sports of various sorts AS part of the
recreation. the girls are learning to dress
dolls. This gives opportunity for
teaching sewing and some of these chill
dren have never had a needle and thread
in their hands before. Many of the
children who go TO the camp have never
used toothbrush before. and some have
not known what a night dress meant.
Each child who does not bring them is
provided with toothbrush and comb.
and taught how to use them. Those with
out night clothes have garments lent
them while in camp. and the ha bits thus
acquired the committee believes, will
cling long after their days of camp are
over.
