who have thrived on the fresh air OF
Rock Creek Park will be sent back to
hot city streets. The larger fellows IN
the boys camp may even begin to worry
about going back to school when they
find themselves returning to the crowded
city.
1t was a happy lot of youngsters that
went to bed last night, one hour later
than usual Since noon they had been
running, eating and acting, while the
navy yard men either rushed to supply
them with Ice cream or laughed at their
antics
Races for all the children were run just
after luncheon. when the navy yard COM

chairman, with a large number OF guests.
including Capt. G. II. Blennan, came out
to the camp. The mothers, too, had a
race just to show their charges that they
had been benefited by the open air.
Then watermelons were cut, and each
child got a piece nearly as large as itself.
After supper ice cream was given the
kiddies, and they enjoyed 1t as much as
the watermelons, although they were ad-
mitedly a little filled up.

our fratricidal struggle have passed over
to the other side--where there is no North.
no South, no East no West, but only the
