City Children, Crowded in

. Holiday.
school is out! To some children
• that may mean a happy vacation tjme
is just staeting, Unfortunately, to
inlay hundreds of city -children, it
' means hot days 'spent on narrow,
dirty city streets.
At the Country -Homes office of the
Neighborhood 'Workers' 'Association,
Toronto, 'there are already more than
43ao names on the list of those hoping
for a trip to the country this sum-
mer. Each day more pleas come in
from district workers. "Johnny was
sick during the winter—he must have
a holiday.' "Mary, age 12, has been
keeping 'house dueling her mother's
illness. She is thin and tired and
reeds rest and sunshine." 'Tites'e
and other statements 'by visiting so-
cial workers vouch for the fact that
every name on the waiting list is de-
serving of consideration," said the
director of the country placement de-
" partment. •
Many invitations have been receiv-
ed by the N.W.A. but for the most
"' part they are hostesses of prervious
Years who are anxious to •again do
their bit toward making some city
happy. "We know •there are
tecores more kindly 'country women
Who would Willingly take a ohild or
two into their home tor two weeks if
they only knew of the great need,"
said the director,
There's nothing complicated about
the business of sending an invitation.
.Just a brief letter addressed to the.
N.W.A., St., Toronto, lo-
cation of the farm or stimm%r home,
directions, as to how the nearest point
is reached, and a 'statement of prefer-
ence as to age and sex of children
preferred, isall that is required --plus
a letter from the local clergyman or
a well-kn•own member of the com-
munity. The N.W.A. does all the
Test; 'has the child medically exam-
ined and provided with transporta-
tion.
The need is very urgent and those
who can help may relieve parents and
-.social workers of mein' worry by re-
sponding immediately to the pathetic
question of so many children: "Could
-we please go to the country this
sesurneter?"
