ElzEzW HE FRIENDLY Town OF
M MILFORD will greet
twenty-eight "Fres
airs" on Wednesday
- when they arrive for a
two weeks stay with kindly people
who have consented to be their hosts.
The children will arrive in Harring-
ton at S;43 and will be met by either
those who will entertain them or the
committee who has made the ar
rangements. 1t will be a happy va
cation for the boys and girls and
they will return to their crowded
homes filled with memories that will
stay with them many a day. Mr..
Leslie M. Comfy, the manager of the
Tribune Fresh Air Fund said in a
letter to Mrs. Bayard Wharton, the
local chairman: "Vc kRozv that each
child has been guaranteed by a re-
SPOHSibIe charitable organization and
sve kHoqv ourSeives that tie tenement
sections in zyhich all lice TO be ter
Tibie places, unfit for animals 10 lige
in, let alone grOaviHg bO7S and girls"
So the homes in which they are en-
tertained will seem like palaces to
them and their gatitude, even though
unexpressed, will be unbounded.
Mrs. S. NJ. Miller was the last hos
tess added to the long list.

bers or the local recruiting officer
ready to lend an ear to their in
quiries.
