Tribune Fresh Air Fund
to Appeal for Others Less Fortunate Who
Also Would Enjoy Vacation in Country

The friends of The Tribune's little
Fresh Airs" are still at work and
producing results-results which ulti-
mately will be expressed in pounds of
flesh and blood and hundreds of happy
hours for those little Fresh Airs"
Some of the friends who have been
working for the children are them
selves children
On Sunday, August 8. an appeal for
help for the Fresh Air Fund was made
in The Chil0ren's Tribune under the
caption, Give Some Other Child Bite
of Your Vacation"
You send q 81 bill and we turn it
into whole week in the country for
some child who needs it," said the ap-
peal, which wound up with the sugges-
ton, Talk to your mother and father
about it and send that 81 bill or piece
of it,
Appeal Is Answered

cations at the Whittier Inn, Sea Gate.
\. Y. and who apparently believe in
The Children's Tribune, did talk to
their elders about the matter Espe-
clally they went into conference with
Alfred l.. c. Lottimer, an interior dec
orator of New York, and Mary Graham
bonner, writer of childrens stories,
who also find the Whittier Inn pleas
ant summer home
The outcome was that in few days
the inns, the club and the street cor
ners OF Sea Gate were decked with
copies of Briggs's Fresh Air cartoon,

a notice appended that on the evening
OF August 12 the children of Whittier

That the children worked hard and
that their parents and friends fell in
with the idea ls proved by the contri-
button of S2O3 20, which came to the
fund through The Children's Tribune
yesterday
Every Cent for Children
1t will make possible vacations for
twenty nine boys and girls. which is.
as some of the twenty-nine would
phrase it. "some bite" of fresh air and
happiness for those "other" children.
And the best part of it is that the va
cations are to be just twice as long
as the Whittier Inn children expect.
TOR the appeal to which they responded
told only half the truth when it said
that 81 bill would be turned into "a
whole week in the country" The Trb-
une Fund can and does turn 81 it re-
ceives into whole fortnight in the
country for some child of the tene-
ments.
Mary Graham Bonner was general
manager of the event. Mr. Lottimer
devised the scenic effects and looked
after artistic details generally. Mrs.
Compton. Mrs. Treat, Mrs. Hodupp and
Mrs. Boyd assisted behind the scenes.
Mrs. Charles Perkins attended to busi-
ness arrangements and directed the
sale of tickets by the children, and
Mrs. Craufurd Kent directed the usher
ing, which was done by ten prominent
young women of Sea Gate.
