Above, Happy Children at Camp Christmas Seal, with Miss Ruth Gensemer, camp director; Miss Gertrude Klemm, Miss Maiy Wagner and Miss Nancy Terry. Below Older campers enjoy their rest in the sun parlor. No wonder those children at Christmas Seal Camp grow in health and strength! It was our pleasure Tuesday to have luncheon at the camp and then to make a tour of inspection, seeing what is done to feed and build and amuse the youngsters while they are on their way to health. As is known, the camp is un der the supervision of the Tuberculosis and Health Society of Harrisburg and Dauphin county, and is under the direction of Miss Ruth Gensemer who is do ing a fine job.

Assisting her are Miss Mary Wagner and Miss Nancy Terry, who were gradu ated in June from Hood College and Miss Gertrude Klemm. Here in the camp under weight children have pounds added; and over weights are reduced. Some children are simply below par in health, some have heart conditions, some come from families where there is tuberculosis. Mrs. Ellen Ness is in the kitchen and she is a good cook, as we can testify! She is assisted by Edna Hoover and Alma Ru bendall and by Betty Russell one of the senior campers.

The sleeping quarters are on the second floor of the big, old stone farmhouse which overlooks rich fields of growing corn and grain, with the York hills rising in the distance across the river. There is a crafts building where we saw specimens of posters showing camp activities, linoleum cuts, necklaces made of candle dripping and from odd shaped noodles. The big barn, the gift of the Kiwanis Club, has showers, quar ters for the counselors, and a huge recreation hall with big fireplace, two pianos, radio, tables for games an ideal place for a rainy day. Milk, many gallons a day, and no end of other good foods are supplied, the milk being served five or six times a day to those who wish it. The most cozy hour is at night after the nine o'clock washup, when the children go to the dining room for jelly and peanut butter sand wiches, as many as they can eat and more and more milk.

One child complained to her family that she didn't like the milk at the camp because it came from a cow and not from a can! On the playground there are badminton courts, see saws and swings and indoors, there is a great demand for jacks and balls Rest hours are from 1.30 to 3.30 clock every afternoon when each girl stays on her bed even though she may not be sleepy. Nearly every night there is a campfire with games. There are kind friends of the camp. Today, an Italian mother Nettie Goldberg To Be Wed Sunday Miss Nettie Faye Goldberg, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Jacob S. Goldberg, 1317 North Sixth street, will become the bride of Staff Sergeant Bernard Weinstein, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Weinstein, of Mayfield, Sunday, August 20.
