Mead went to work at Sing Sing
April |, 1880. and for years has worked
on the night shift. During his forty
one years at the prison he has rubbed
elbows with all classes of crookdom,
sharing the confidence of murderers,
bank robbers, sneak thieves, yeggmen,
forgers and crooked politicians. He
has assisted in frustrating the escape
of scores OF inmates and aided in re
capturing many who did manage 20
get away. Since he took job at the
prison in 1880, nearly 200 men have
been put to death in the electric chair
and seventeen wardcns Lave come and
gone.
Mead helped to install Big Ben, the
prison siren, which took the place Of
the old alarm bell to warn OF escapes.
1t whooped FOR the first time on the
forenoon of May 10, 1887, when James
Blaine smashed his way to freedom
through two iron gates. Elmer Schultz,
a jail breaker recently arrested in front

was at one time an inmate fireman
for Mead. One morning Schultz
stuffed the big alarm whistle and made

The Tribune Fresh Air Fund

Half way,
To-day marks the middle point Of the
public school vacation, and, by the
same token, the middle point in the
Fresh Air season.
The Tribune Fund has gained all its
mldseason oaie ctives. and on the most
important sector Of tse battlefront has
gone far beyond the line as originally
mapped out.
The 1921 Fresh Air campaign was
planned to provide $500 fortnight vaca-
tons in the first half Of the season
$4,000 for the whole season. instead
Of that number by nightfall today 8
4lo boys and girls OF tie tenemen 5
Will have been settled in glorious coun-
~ vacation places by the Tribune
Fund
That's 30 per cent better than the
Fund promised
The 1900 vacations were TO cost $780,
600. That meant that 100000 had to be
raised IN voluntary contributions from
the friends OF children. The list Of
contributions aci.uc ,7ledged below
shows that the Fund has succeeded in
doing little better than PASS the
budget half way mark with total f
$50, 1928.
The figures prove chat people-coun-

fresh air vacations. They prove. too,
the interest Of all sorts Of folk in the
welfare Of the nitiful little lads and
lasses condemned by the accident Of
birth to suffer in the terrible tene-
menIa Of the great city.
Intense Suffering Here
They are being called upon to under
go sut-er'ngs even beyond their usual
average this summer, these BOYS and
gr-s who live all but next door to YOU
readers of The Tribune. The heat has
been more oppressive than ordinary
nowhere so bad as in the tenements.
And there is real poverty and distress
among the tenement population this
year, owing to lack Of employment
That means boys and girls going
hungry to bed.
A Fresh Air vacation brings relief
from the sweltering heat of his home
and good sood aolenty for at least two
weeks to 9 child who gets one. Is it
. boon worth bringing to him?
Shall the good work go on? This is
not rhetorical question, but one that
demands an answer-an immediate
answer.
Fight thousand four hundred and
seventyfve vacations have been Pro
vided so far. The absolute minimum
cost OF a Two weeks FreSn AIT vacation
is ST. 1t tho lowest estimate then. the
cost of the work done TO date is $50, 1925.
If all the Funds bills were paid It's
ledger would show a deficit With
many bills outstanding, the Fund has
only small working balance in it's
treasury. The Fund cannot buy vaca-
tons for poor children without money
any more than purely commercial en-
terprise can buy its raw materials with
out it.
The Tribune Fund stands today
where it can come nearer to meeting
the need for Fresh Air vacations in
New York this summer than il ever
has before. 1t would be possible to
double the number of vacations al
ready provided. The places in the
country are available.
Money Is Needed
Only money is lacking.
Nor would providing $4,000 vacations
