Donald Does a
Tarzan,' Suffers
Broken Arm

The first major accident at the
Phyllis Wheatley camp occurred
Monday, August 10, when Donald
Brown, 51S Emerson Ave. No.,
playing the role of "Tarzan" fell
and suffered a compound arm frac-
ture.
During a rest period, Donald at
tempted to jump from the top of
a stove in the recreation room to
a beam in the ceiling intending to
do q "Tarzan swing" He swung
through the air with the greatest
of ease but fell with much less
ease.
"Tarzan" was removed to the
office Of DR.. w. D.. Brown, camp
physician. After his arm was
x-rayed, set and put in a east, he
insisted upon returning to the
camp because he did not want the
camp fee paid by his mother
wasted.
He was allowed to return to the
camp with the understanding he
would be housed in the dispensary
for the balance of the camp period.
Wednesday the camp nurse
placed him in custody of his buddy,
Billy Stewart, while she came in
to town on business. When she
left Billy was giving his patient a
bath.
Donald has the sympathy of his
fellow campers as we'll as the coun-
sellers and officers. He is a very
popular lad with an exceptionally

More than that she has given the
public a chance to capitalize on an
unusual occupation by writing a
textbook, lecturing at schools, and
teaching students.
Lauded by First Lady
It doesn't take much talent or
money to do what Mrs. Foster has
done-just a little glue, the con-
tents from a wastebasket, and a
little patience. And yet these
things have brought Mrs. Foster
applause from Mrs. Franklin d.
Roosevelt, who purchased four Of
her pictures, and from educators
throughout the country-especially
the heads Of the Chicago public
school system.
What does she use?
Fish scales, cigar butts, cotton,
flowers from old felt hats, spOnges
that window washers have dis
carded, matches, dried leaves,
dried flowers, chicken bones, soap,
egg shells and-well, you go on
from here. There is practically no
waste material that she doesn't or
can't use.
And what does she turn out?
Beautiful snow scenes, done in
cotton and matches, pictures of
waterfalls done with pine bark,
milkweed and moss, the Chicago
skyline from her husbands cigar
butts, pictures of ladies in pretty
dresses made out Of dressmaker's
scraps, pencil shavings, and-yes,
an American flag, made out of
stamps. She works mostly with
cotton.
Mrs. Foster, whose idea it is to
give the masses, especially Grip
pied and disabled persons, some
thing to do and with which to help
support themselves, wrote a text
book about it.
She calls the 174-page book
Trash Craft" It came off the
publishers press Friday.
More than that she has endeav-
