Receipts Behind Last Year.
Harry G. Meem, treasurer, Summer |
outings committee. 1922 Eleventh |
street, reports that contributions are
behind last year at this
time. Mr.. Meem accounts for this
partly because of the cool late Spring |
weather, but with the actual opening |
of the camps this week the Summer |
outings committee hopes that gifts
will be speeded up so that there may |
be no question as to the camps re-
manning open for the full season OF
eight weeks, thus allowing four /
parties to go to each camp for a two
week stay in accordance with the gen.
eral program.
Several additional tents have been
named during the past week. Some
of these are in memory of departed |
children or friends. They are: Mrs.
