Giant City Found
In Illinois Ozarks

MAKANDA, Ill. June 15.-In the
South Central part of Illinois, In
the very heart of the Illinois
Ozarks and encompassing 916 acres
of ruggedly- beautiful country, is
Giant City State Park, a strange
combination of rolling hills, tree
filled valleys, unique rock forma-
tions and canyons.
Giant City" received its name
from the unique formations of the
canyons. Created by some up
heaval in the dim past, the canyons
were formed by subterranean pres
sure which forced huge blocks of
rock high above the level of the
surrounding valley floor. Streets"
were formed by the whim OF Nature,
which dictated that the blocks
forced up should be almost perfectly
square, and should be aligned
parallel to each other. Walking
along the floors of the canyons one
Is tempted to believe that they were
laid out by a surveyor, and blasted
out by engineers, so straight are the
passage ways and so vertical and
even are the walls Of the towering
cliffs.

according to standards of the Red
Cross, the meals are planned and
served under the supervision Of an
experienced dietitian, and the daily
health of the campers Is looked
after by a resident nurse and usu-
ally a resident physician.
In some States, summer camps
for children are licensed and annual
inspections are made under the
direction Of the State or local health
authorities. In other states, while
no licenses are required and annual
inspections are not made as a re-
suit of State regulations, the camp
sponsors cooperate with the State
and local health authorities in mat
tiers of hygienic and sanitary con-
ditions.
In Connecticut, although licensing
is not required and no permits are
issued, all camps of this type are
required to register with the local
health authorities. Annual in
spections are made and camps are
rated as good, fair or poor. These
ratings are given to any person who
writes for information. Under this
system, the various camp directors
try to maintain the higest standards.
In Maine, the camps are licensed
and are inspected annually by the
State. In 1889, there were about 200
licensed camps for boys and girls
in Maine.
In New Hampshire, all summer
camps for children are licensed and
inspected periodically. Free water
analyses are made for any camp
director on request The regula tions
also require that only pasteurized
milk can be served.
In New Jersey, while no operating
permit is required by law, the camps
as well as public places are required
to meet the standards of the State
Sanitary Code. which relates to safe
water supply, proper handling of
food and disposal of garbage and
sewage. Inspection of all camps is
made annually by the State Board
OF Health and the reports are sent
to camp directors.
In New York State, permits are
required even for the overnight
hike camp. Permits are not issued
unless the specific requirements are
met.
The mental health of children
deserves even more consideration.
Camp directors interested primarily
IN the benefits to the child select
counselors of the highest pro-
fessional qualifications, experienced
IN child guidance.
After the basic standards of
camp have been investigated, it is
advisable to interview some one
who has attened the camp before
making final decision. Sufficient
investigation before enrolment in
sures rich returns later. If you
send your children to a good camp.
they will have a splendid vacation
and while they are away you will not
worry about them. They will return
to you healthier, happier and i'm
proved in every way. They will be
more thoughtful of you, more ap-
preciative of their homes, more CO.
operative with their teachers and
grounded in those things which
make for deeper spirituality and
better citizenship.

Fair Chair Rates
Posted Prominently

NEW YORK, June l5.-Danger of
misunderstanding is removed by the
new metal plates attached to the
footrest Of guide chairs, with the
rates in large raised letters con-
stantly before the customers eye
This new schedule of fares for the
New York Worlds Fair guide chairs
Is divided into 10-minute periods
and represents considerable savings
over the rates of last year.
A typical short ride from point
to point in the Fair of 20 minutes
will be comparatively inexpensive
according to the new rates. Last
year such a ride for one person
would have cost Is cents. Two or
three persons riding together in the
larger chairs pay the same rate

Parks and Forests
Dot Minnesota

ST. PAUL, MINI, June 15.-Min-
nesota has 81 State parks and 81
State and two national forests, many
with camping and other recreational
facilities. Most Of the camps are
located on the shores Of lakes in
which several species of game fish
afford satisfying sport for the
anglers.
Large sections of these forest areas
still are primitive wildernesses.
Itasca State Park is Minnesota's S

Ray Schwartz's Main Street Gag

Defenders of district % title,

In the district, with the unimpres-

starts, Sauk Centre rocks along on
uneasy ground as the tournament
draws nearer. With only one
game left, that with defeating Mel
rose at Melrose, local stock for the
pre-tourney antics can't boom too
high. AS defending champs,
on two year ticket, the lads have
enough to watch in just that with
out adding the pressure of a sea-

shining, Glenwood is the fast NOV

SHIPS IN EFFORT
To AID ENGLAND
Program Expected to be
Comparable to That
of World War

washington, Dec. 2l--AP--- Al
ministration action to bolster Bri-
tain's hard-pressed merchant fleet
was reported imminent today.
An authoritative source predict
ed that President Roosevelt would
recommend shortly that the United
States speedily build large num-
ger OF merchant ships, in a program
comparable TO the record-breaking
construction OF World War days.
This informant said that the pro
ject would be executive and fit
into the plan which Mr.. Roosevelt
has discussed for leasing or lend
ing equipment and supplies to the
British.
1t was not disclosed whether the
proposed ships themselves would
be made available to Britain or
would be used to replace other ton
mage which might be leased imme-
diately.
Speculation continued in the ca
pital. meanwhile, that the Admins
tration soon might take another
step to strengthen the British con-
voys now striving to protect sh D.
ments of food and war materials
from Nazi submarine and plane
attacks.
Official estimates OF the number
OF additional destroyers needed By
the British ranged from 100 to 400.
despite the fact that this govern
ment already has traded so old
World War destroyers for the right
to lease naval and air base sites.
Some naval officers are opposed
to the transfer of additional World
War destroyers unless the United
States gets in exchange somethng
which possesses a military value
comparable to the base sites. A
corridor through Canada for
military highway to Alaska has
been suggested as one possible
consideration.
