FRESH AIRS COMING

Forty-Six Children Have Been
Provided FORA Few

Fresh Air children from New YOrk's
tenement district are waiting impa-
ticntly 20 hear how many can get
away from the brick walls and flag
pavements for a two weeks outing in
and near Putnam. Mrs. Harry Tor
fey reports that TO date arrangements
have been made for forty-six. While
this ia way below the number cared
for lest year the committee fees that
under present conditions the response
Eas been generous to the appea.
There is yet time for more people
To send money or signify their will
ingneSs to open their homes for two
weeks TO one or more Of these young
STEERS 10 whom two weeks in the fresh
air, with plenty Of milk TO drink and
so much. One Of the most recent
and largest contributions, 800, has
been sent in by the Thompson com
mittee.
The total in money thus far receiv-
ed is 1891. This signifies that Of
the forty-six children already provid-
ed for, forty have their board paid at
$40 week and only six are taken into
families without charge.
Perhaps this may be accounted for
partly by the fact that several families
who took children last year found Il
necessary To buy them clothing and
do not feel that they can assume any
expense this year. Besides the indi.
vidual contributions received during
the week two societies have made
donations: The Odd Fellows, $40 and
Catholic Welfare Society, $50.
The children will arrive Thursday
August l6. As they have to be dis
tributed to homes in the outlying Sec
tions, volunteers are asked to come
forward with automobiles for this pnr
pose. The children will be taken
from the railroad station 10 the Israel
Putnam school yard for luncheon, af-
ter which they will be taken 70 the
homes where they have been assign
ed. Those willing to furnish automo-
biles for this purpose are asked TO com
munieate with Mrs. Torrey.
The number that Putnam district
viii take will have TO be sent IN TO the
New York Tribune Fresh Air Fund
within few days. Ii is hoped that at
least fifty children may be provided
for before the list is finally made up
and sent TO headquarters.

 His first came at the 18th hole, 12S yards, September b. The sec ond was September 22 and the third September 29, both at the 163 yard 18th.
 Telling his own story Fred ad- mits that one was luck. "The first and third were good shots," he says, but the second hit rock, going on the green and rolling in the cup"
 The hole in one expert, who is a great booster for James Donna chic, the professional at the Foun- tain Head club, is a junior at the Hagerstown High School and has played golf only about one year He has never had a golf lesson.

 Miss Edith c. Haight, for some tine Assistant Director of Physi- cal Eddcation at Lewis and Clar. High School here, has a theory that children can learn to appre- ciatc tbe rhythm of poetry ane it's aesthetic values while they a.e dancing for exercise.

BARRATT IS BIG WITH A BIG B

l Fred Barratt, giant center of the Ohio State football team is listed officially as weighing 236 pounds but he does not look it-he seems l to be much heavier. Even from the comfortable and commodious press box perched high at Ohio l Stadium, Barratt looks as though 1 he might weigh nearer 256 than 236 pounds. And will all this weight he will not lag far behind any of the 22 men on the field at given time in getting down on punts.
 In the Michigan-O State game the big center did much of the tackling and once he struck the Michigan safety man so hard on kick that the ball went high in to the air and bounded 15 yards down the field where the agile Barratt, up and away after flatten- ing the Wolverine, fell on it.
 Barratt, whose home is at Lan- sing, Mich, is sophomore and has his best football before him Before he calls it a day at the Buckeye university, he should i'm prove to the point of ranking with the great centers of all times al any weight He may train down to the 236 the program says he weighs, but if he continues to car ny the poundage he boasts now he will not be a better player any lighter. Barratt is not only fast for a big man." he is fast for any model

Alaska Trappers Made
 More Money Last Year
Received Higher Prices
 By Shipping to New York

In 1927 number of Alaska trappers shipped their furs to the George I. Fox Corporation, New York.
 As a result, these trappers re- ceived higher prices for their belts than they would have re- eeived if they shipped elsewhere. For the George I. Fox Corpora tion does business in way that assures trappers of higher prices MORE MONEY.
 In the first place, they pay the highest possible market prices. Then-and pay attention to this they pay an EXTRA 5% on shipments of $50 and over.
 In other words. if a trapper's furs are worth $200, he actually receives S210. The company pays this extra because it is the larg- est raw fur merchant in the East, and has a tremendous outlet for furs of all kinds.
 AS trappers know, many houses charge commission for handling and also deduct for shipping charges.
 The George I. Fox Corporation does none of these things. They pay every cent they quote-there are no deductions of ANY kind. And they telegraph the cash the day the furs are received.
 The company has been buying and selling raw furs for over 20 years. It has over a quarter mil lion dollars cash invested in busi- ness and refers trappers to any bank or commercial agency
 Any trapper, who has not done business with the George I. Fox Corporation, should certainly send them a trial shipment There is nothing to lose and everythins to gain, for, if he isn't satisfied with the company's offer. they return the furs at once and pay ALL shipping charges ROTH WAYS.
 Trappers at least should wire the George I. Fox Corporation collect and ask for quotations on whatever furs they have ready.
 Remember the George l. Fox Corporation pays 5Zo above mar ket prices on all shipments of $50 and over.
 The address Of the company is 26S West 3Oth St.. New York.
