Care in Choice of Camps
For Children Is Advised
Boys Club Executive Urges Place
Where Physical Checkup Is Required

normal outlets are just as restricted
by the very environment created by
a modern urban community"
Parents are likely to look upon
the camp vacation for their offspring
as a breathing spell" for them
selves. as an antidote for the child's
minor ills. and as health-builder in
general, he continued.
However" he added. children
should not be bundled off to any
camp chosen at random without re-
gard to their individual tempera-
ments. preferences, and physical
condition While camp life, with the
opportunities it offers for outdoor
and wholesome activity is generally
considered healthful and beneficial,
there is no blanket recipe for health
building at camp.
IF the children have any physical
handicaps, they should be known be-
fore they leave for even a short
period at camp.
Guessing is gambling. with the
chances of ultimate health against
the child who is sent off to camp
without a sound knowledge of his
physical, condition. of the activities
which he can safely undertake, and
of the principles of diet and rest
which he should follow.
THE safe way is to send your
child to some camp where a thor
ough physical examination is one Of
the requisites for admission, and
where there are trained camp coun-
sellers who will deal with the child
with full knowledge of his physi-
cal condition and temperamental
difficulties"

Mr.. Fyfe also stressed the neces-
sity for choosing camp where
every precaution is taken to guard
against water hazards, while at the
same time youngsters are given an
opportunity Of learning how to
swim.

Choose your child's camp with
care is the advice given by Charles

of Washington.
Children are individuals first of
ALL he said land strict account
should be taken of their physical
condition, of their personality diff
ferences and of any peculiarities
that would have a bearing on their
adjustment to camp life"
The widely varying set-up of
camps sponsored by Community
Chest agencies, Mr.. Fyfe said, shows
a realization that needs of youth
vary according to age, environment,
sex and the individual differences.
The program at Camp Reeder,
the summer camp of the Boys Club
OF Washington, which opens Mon
day, has program intended to
stimulate the interest and apprecia-
ton of the city boy in the many
things provided by nature and to
help him enjoy living among boys
OF his own age group, Mr.. Fyfe
pointed out.
Common Sense Methods.
There are no miracles performed
at Camp Reeder," he said, but
changes for the better have taken
place in many boys-due to the
pleasant environment and common
sense methods the camp uses in an
effort to bring about good health,
happiness, friendships and whole
some relationships between boys and
staff"
Camp life can be considered from
a number of angles in its bearing
upon the life of boys and girls. he
pointed out.
ITO the child it usually is and
should represent release from the
restrictions and confinement that
modern city life imposes upon him
during the rest of the year.
THE mental hygienist may regard
it as therapeutic agent, and may
prescribe it for the child who has
come to the point where he needs to
be 'psychologically weaned' from the
over-protection and too anxious SUI
pervision of home life.
THE social worker may look upon
it as tool through which to effect
a change in the life of child who,
because of intolerable problems in
his environment, is in danger of be-
coming delinquent, or otherwise NAL

Danger of Smallpox
Held Existing in U. S.
By the Associated Press.


The danger of an epidemic of
smallpox in the United States still
exists because of a general apathy
toward disease prevention, the
United States Public Health Service
said yesterday.
Smallpox could be completely
eradicated in the United States, the
service declared, by universal vacci-
nation, thus eliminating the "scourge
of the Middle Ages" However,
1894 cases were reported in the
Nation last year.
Prevalence of the disease varies
with sections of the country. There
is no record of its being found in
New Jersey in the last seven years.
However, in North Dakota, South
Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Oregon,
wyoming and Utah-which have a
total population less than that Of
New Jersey-12,00 cases were re-
ported during the same period.
