The time is near in Washington
when the clinging vine no longer
will be able to lisp.
Because potential clinging vines
are grabbed in the kindergartenS
now and quickly have removed the
dental defects that make them

It is only fair to the champions
Of equal rights to state at this time
that the lisp removing treatment
is also accorded future truck driv-

z ILL CHILDREN
IN HEALTH CAMP
WAIT ON FUNDS
Must Come Back Home
If Contributions Lag

Gallant little youngsters who
have done their best the last few
weeks to gain q few needed pounds
will beam with pride tonight as
they walk together in the SYM
bolic candlelight ceremony at the
tuberculosis Associations health
camp on Bald Eagle Hill.
Each youngster who showed an
increase in weight in the tests
given yesterday will hold a lighted
candle with which he will light
another candle-a larger one, SYM
bolic of the double-barre cross Of
the tuberculosis Association.
ONLY $543 NEEDED
Only $543 was needed today to
take care of the two new arrivals
and to make 1t possible to fill the
seven empty beds at the camp.
Contributions Of that amount
would give the benefited children
relief from their hot city apart
ments and renewed hope of ef-
fecting O. cure from the plague
which has attacked their lungs.
But unless enough contributions
are forthcoming, the two taken
to the camp yesterday on faith"
must be returned.
Yesterday $50 was turned over
to the association by The Wash
ington Times and the Washington
Herald, assuring a Six-weeks stay
at the camp for the sixteenth
child, who was taken in Monday.
The money was deposited In glass
jars placed by the papers in all
Peoples Drug Stores throughout
the city.
TO SEE MOVIE
Hopefully, the 116 children In
the camp sat outside the medi-
cal tent yesterday waiting their
turn on the scales. While they
waited there, thinking that surely
all the good things they have had
to eat would make them fat, they
sang the songs Mother Goose"
and Jack and JILL"
In addition to the candlelight
ceremony, a movie will be shown
tonight and the boys and girls who
have been the best-those who
have eaten their cereal every morn
ing and been in bed on time at
night-will be awarded the double
barred cross.

S TEP WEIGHED
TO CURB CHILD
TRAFFIC DEATHS
Decision to Be Made
This Week

spurred to activity by the re-
cent epidemic Of child traffic
deaths, school officials began Q
series Of conferences today with o
view to opening some Of the "a
school Fairgrounds for children
now playing in the streets.
DR.. Chester w. Holmes, acting
superintendent Of schools, will con-
fer during the day with District
officials to seek their cooperation
in opening the Fairgrounds which
are now closed for the summer
for lack Of supervision.
DR.. Holmes will confer with
Major Ernest w. Brown. superin-
tendent Of police, and with Cor.
poration Counsel Elwood Seal on
the legal aspects Of tie problem.
PLAY IN STREET
A survey Of neighborhoods in
which school Fairgrounds are
closed for the summer revealed
children playing ball in the street
while automobiles scooted by and
playing "tag" and other games
that led from sidewalk to street
with dangerous regularity.
Although many Of the play.
grounds are open, the children are
not permitted TO use them because
there are no playground super.
visors to direct them and to pre-.
vent them from getting hurt.
DR.. Holmes said he expected to
reach a decision on the playground
problem by the end Of the week.
SURVEY PLANNED
Local authorities viii also con-
duct a survey Of the city's
Fairgrounds in relation to
their location to the areas where
four Washington children lost
their lives last week. This Is to be
undertaken by Mrs. Elizabeth K.
Peoples, director Of the Commu-
nifty Center Department: Lewis r.
Barrett, coordinator Of District
recreation, and Miss Sibyl Baker.
director Of District Fairgrounds.
SUPPORT MOVE
Proposals to reopen the play.
grounds were advanced yesterday
by the Keystone Automobile Club
and won the immediate support Of
Major Brown and Traffic Director
William A. Van Duzer.
The police superintendent said
there was no doubt opening Of the
school grounds would assist in re-
ducing "this appalling slaughter
of children" Even though the
Fairgrounds are unsuperviSed, he
said, the children would be better
off than on the streets.
Van Duzer Endorsed the project
and suggested the members Of the
school.boy traffic patrols might
volunteer for service as super.
viSors in the Fairgrounds.
