Goods "Put Up" by Canning
Clubs to Carry Special Blue
and White Sucker.
SIGN OF FOUR CAPITAL HIS
ADOPTED AS TRADE MARK
Organizations 0utgrowth of Boys
Corn Clubs and Have Proved
Successful.

Officials of the Department Of AGricul-
ture have devised label to be used on
the product of the girls canning clubs.
1t is a blue and white 'sticker'' bearing
the cabalistic sign of four capital HIS
Only the girls themselves in the clubs
know the meaning of -Four H.
The girls canning clubs are an out
growth of the boys corn clubs. organized
The idea Of the corn clubs was for each
boy member to grow an acre OF corn
under school and departmental super
vision. state and county champions to be
matched against each, other, and the best
boy corn grower in each state to be re-
| warded with a free trip to Washington
and a diploma, presented by the Secre-
tary of Agriculture, showing the quantity
| of corn the .possessor had produced or
| his acre.
| The idea spread till there are now
about 1900 boys in the southern clubs
and record yields have been made OF
more than 200 bushels to the acre Then
| the girls got interested and the depart
ment was forced to set them to raising
something. so girls tomato CLUBS were
formed. More tomatoes Were raised on
a. tenth of an acre than the girls could
possibly sell, and then the farm demon
strators of the department evolved the
| idea of canning the surplus. on the prin-
| ciple of the Kansas girl who was asked
what they did with all their tomatoes
| and replied, "Oh, We eat what we can
and what we can't eat we can.
Canning Clubs Develop Rapidly.
These canning clubs developed almost
as rapidly as the corn clubs had done,
and then the girls took to canning and
preserving all the surplus fruit and vege-
tables on their places.
The girls found ready market Tor
everything they put up because the things
were good. Finally the department de.
signed a regular blue and white brand
of the four HIS. The term Is taken
! from the motto of the girls clubs.
Many adults guided by the example OF

CAMP GOOD Will
IN NEED OF CASH
More Contributions Required to
| Keep Vacation Plant Open
Through Summer.

Lugging bundles of clothing and urging
their tired mothers to hurry. two parties
numbering eighty-five each, wended their
respective ways to 1922 street north
west and FOL Rhode Island avenue to
the two offices of the Associated Chart
ties.
Some of the little faces were pale and
wan, but they were all happy. for were
they not going to Camp Good Will for
two weeks? One little girl coniided to
her next door neiShbor: We got three
meals a day out there The best cv-
dencc of these three meals Il day are tho
added pounds recorded by the camp
scales when the children leave.
At the places mentioned, the nurses and
doctors were waiting to examine the
party carefully; not merely to detect the
presence Of contagious or infectious dis
case. but to note any physical defect
which would need attention later on.
If a vote could be cast by all the
guests of Camp Good VIII as to what
they enjoyed most during their stay
probably three fourths would say the
swimming pool. Every day twosp arties
visit the pool The girls at one time
and the boys at another. The walk
to the pool is down a beautiful shady
path, and it is always hard to get the
parties faces turned homeward, as they
like to linger and have one last dip.

Time Passes Quickly.

With rock climbing, trips to the Zoo.
drives to Soldiers Home, story telling.
athletic games etc, the time passes so
quickly that the children can hardly
realize that their vacation is over, and
they have to return to the hot. close
streets of the city.
The camp is supported entirely by
voluntary contributions, and though the
contributions for the present year have
been generous. it was said at 923 II
street northwest, the headquarters Of
the Associated Charities, yesterday that
more money will be needed to keep the
camp open until the end of the season.
Many contributions are coming in
from persons who are away on their
own vacations. One letter from Hol-
derness, n. II. reads: Enclosed please
find SO for Camp Good Will. ] wish it
might be $500 for the splendid work"
Another: Il am glad to be one of the
number to contribute to the benevolent
work of your committee.

full man replied, That's one Of her

somewhat misplaced, succeeded in

result she would like, anyway.

sounded somewhat doubtful the
other night at the Sturgeon Elkin
wedding. A charming visitor whose
former sylph-l figure has grown
larger since she left Atlanta several
years ago, was really quite delight
ed when one of her girlhood admir-
ers, gazing with open admiration at
her white chiffon and tulle draperies,
remarked: Il declare, Polly you
look like a covered wagon this even
ing!" Now. Polly" only laughed,
whereas another woman would have
been highly indignant, the reason for
her pleasure being that she was in i'll
health when she left Atlanta, and is
now rosy and plump. with perfect
health. So, you see, she could afford
to laugh at the backhanded compli-
ment.

joyed the turkey trot party. Had a
