Wheelwright 30.00 Joe Price 1.00 J. L. Wright 12.00 Total $2473.35 Contributions of cash should bo sent to the secretary of the Associated Charities, V. K. Manning, 411 Com mercial block; R. S. Howard, treas urer, at Ladd & Tilton Bank, or The Oregonlan. Contributions of clothing should be sent to the Associated Charities, 411 Commercial block. Twenty children who are to go to Turner for 10 days' uuting in the fresh air were outfitted at the offices of the Associated Charities yesterday and will start today. The medical examination was made by Dr. Allen T. Noyes. One little boy was lame. His friend, a boy about the same age, wanted him to go on the outing, but the little fel low insisted on paying his own fare to Turner and back. Miss Isabelle Gauld was at the headquarters all day help ing outfit the children for the trip. They will leave this morning at 8:15 on the Southern Pacific, tinder the es cort of Mrs. John Nissen, who has volunteered her services in the Fresh Air movement and has been a faithful worker since Its beginning. The fund for the Fresh Air work is n6w near the $2500 mark and contri butions are still arriving, though some what more slowly than they did a few weeks ago. The balance that remains after the current expenses of the Fresh Air season are attended to will be placed in the fund with which it is hoped eventually to acquire a perma nent Fresh Air farm near Portland. It was hoped that the fund would be sufficiently large at the end of the present season, but if donations con tinue to decrease as they have since the beginning of the war excitement this is almost too much to hope, and the time when a permanent outing place for poor children and tired moth ers mav bo assured must remain still a year or more in the future.
