SEND A KID TO CAMP
Wholesome Air Can
Ease Tense Household

The James home is always
crowded. with too many children
in the small apartment and too
many feelings that never get
aired.
Things are rarely tranquil
there. And then only for a min
ute. Every one knows it's only a
matter of time until one sharp
word, one angry look, sparks the
tension in the home all over
again.
Not only is it an unhappy
home. it's poor one. Mr..
James salary doesn't stretch
very far. Mrs. James has tried
to supplement it, but now finds
she must have an operation.

1t will mean so much to her
to know three of her five chill

And it will mean everything

old Judy. 10-year-old Steve and
9-year-old Jane have been to
camp before. and the reports on
them were excellent. look
ing, healthy youngsters, they re-
spond to the carefree outdoor
life, unmarried by constant bick-
ering.
And there is space to move
around. They're not all packed
into one tiny apartment, where
there is no privacy, no chance
TO breathe.
Wholesome Air
At camp they'll be able to
stretch out. They won't have to
face the daily depression one
more fight at home brings.
They won't be caught them
selves in endless battles and
recriminations. There will be so
much to do that is interesting.

That we may then all unite
in rendering unto Him our
sincere and humble thanks
for the signal and mani
fold mercies and the favorable
interpretations of His providence
for the peaceable and
rational manner in which we
have been enabled to establish
