BACK TO THE CITY
Ninety-one Children End Two Weeks
Vacation in Country

The nincty-one Fresh Air children
who have been spending two weeks in
Putnam and the surrounding towns,
today found their vacation az a close,
and left on the 100 train this Thurs
day afternoon for the five hour ride
back TO the metropolis. As the last
days Of their country stay passed,
the children, sent here by the New
York Herold- Tribune Fresh Air
fund, almost universally expressed
sorrow that they were going back
home so soon. Nearly all are going
back much improved in health, with
a few pounds added to their weight
and shade of tan on their faces and
arms. The little bundles they brought
here with them are almost all sweIled
By clothing which has been given
them or by membranes which they
are taking back 20 the city.
Mrs. Harry Torrey, chairman of
the committee which placed the child
rem in Putnam homes and which
raised the funds 20 defray necessary
expenses, reports that the past week
has been broken by no mishaps to
any Of the children. She urges that
several pledges of funds, unpaid to
date, be paid as soon as possible to
Mrs. N. r. Joy. treasurer for the com
mittee, in order that all expenses
may be paid soon after the children
leave. The committee has been great
