A Red Letter Day for Orphans

What would please you more, if you
could afford it, than taking 1,440
little boys and girls to Belle Isle for
a day, with all the good fresh milk
that every one of them could drink?
The eats, the games, the polar bear,
the swims, would give you more
pleasure than you could ever get out
of them alone.

Other Detroiters' dollars are ready
to join yours and make such play
possible for little kiddies who can-
not play otherwise. Truck after
truck load of orphan children all
summer long must be taken on pic-
nics and summer outings---out of
their close quarters into great open
spaces---into the country---to the
island---to the banks of Lake St.
Clair---on boat rides up and down
the river.

To provide for the city's dependents
is our obligation, but to provide
play facilities for little children is
but an opportunity which is cher-
ished by you and every other big-
hearted Detroiter.

An Evening at the Community House

Wading Their Turn at a Settlement House Shower Rath

The Recreation and Settlement work of the Fund

Let a few of your dollars help take 1,440
kiddies on a two-weeks' summer outing;
take 156 mothers and 396 children to the
banks of Lake St. Clair for two weeks; or
send 391 tired working girls for a summer
vacation at Pine Lake at moderate cost
These are but a few of the thousands of
things done by the Detroit Community
Fund to give rest, play and happiness to
those who need it—who otherwise would
never get it.

To make a city happier, friendlier, a more
congenial place in which to live is a big
problem and a big task. It requires great
social centers, settlement houses. where
communities are taught to live and to play.
It requires in- and out-door recreational
facilities, playgrounds and gymnasiums,
libraries, kindergartens, nurseries, medical
and dental clinics, clubs and classes for
men, women and children--every conceiv-
able kind of social activity which can make

for better citizenship among peoples natur•
ally hard to assimilate into the city's life

For these and other activities of the De-
troit Community Fund your support will b(
asked next week. The needs of 70 organi-
zations supported by the Community Fund
for 1921 will require $2,56J,000. This ,r,-
peal comes but once a year. It does awa3,
with 70 separate solicitations.

You will be called upon—be ready to
your share.
