Moreover, the fund is not inter ested in freE'i air work done on the board-fbr-money basis. Its appeal is for hospitality, interest and kindness bestowed by friendly people who can afford the slight expense incurred in caring for a child thru a fortnight without being paid for it. The aid is to secure homes where kindness-of-heart unlocks the door. The picture of the new way of life that the child will gain in such a home and the influences it comes under are as important a part of the Fresh Air vacation as the sunshine, healthy surroundings and fun.

The comfortable farm home, the pleasant city home are the best places in the world for providing the things that children of the slums need. Last year, 17 children were invited to Hagerstown. It is the hope of the committee that this year will see at least 50, placed in homes where they will get a glimpse of the normal kind of life, lead by the average American. We believe that there are 50 homes in this community which would welcome the opportunity to make a few children happier in two weeks, than they have ever been "before and with our parks, swimming pools, baseball games and other activities it should be looked upon as a privilege that you are able to help a child get a new lease on the proper kind of life. Starting today and until July 6th, a Fresh Air coupon will appear in the Herald and the Mail.

If you are interested in entertaining a Fresh Air guest, fill in the coupon and mail to Mrs. P. M. Holmes, Daily Mail. From that time host will be contacted by the committee for further arrangements.

Thirty years ago, in Forbidden Tibet, behind the highest mountains in the world, a young Englishman named Edwin J.

Dingle found the answer to this question. A great mystic opened his eyes. A great change came over him. He realized the strange Power that Knowledge gives. That Power, he says, can transform the life of anyone.

Questions, whatever they are, can be answered. The problems of health, death, poverty and wrong, can be solved. In his own case, he was brought back to splendid health. He acquired wealth, too, as well as worldwide professional recognition. Thirty years ago, he was sick as a man could be and live.

Once his coffin was bought Years of almost continuous tropical fevers, broken bones, near blindness, privation and danger had made a human wreck of him, physically and mentally. He was about to be sent back to England to die, when a strange message are waiting for you. in Tibet." He wants to tell the whole world what he learned there, under the guidance of the greatest mystic he ever encountered during his twenty-one years in the Far East- -He wants every, one to experience the greater health and the Power, which there came to him. Within ten years, he was able to retire to this country with a- fortune. He had been honored by fellowships in the World's leading geographical societies, for his work as a geographer.

And today, 30 years later, he is still so athletic, capable of so much work, so young in appearance, it is hard to believe has lived so long. As a first step in their progress toward the Power that Knowledge gives, Mr. Dingle wants to send to readers of this paper a 9000-word treatise. He says the time come for it to be released to'the Western World, and offers to send it, free of cost or obligation, to sincere readers of this notice.
