THE COLLEGE NEWS [AUS
BATES GIVES VACATION TO
OVER ONE HUNDRED CHILDREN
With an unusually successful summer
behind it and the long needed garden al-
ready started for next season, the Com-
mittee for Bates House, the college vaca-
tion home for poor children from the
Spring Street Settlement in New York, is
again looking toward the College for sup-
port, according to C. Baird, ’22, the chair-
man. “Save your pennies for the Bates
monthly collections now and your weeks
next summer to go down to Longbranch,”
said Miss Baird. Workers were needed
even more than money last summer.
One hundred and eighteen children and
a group of missionary ladies were enter-
tained at Bates House during June and
July. Miss Elsa Lotz, who has been head
of the Spring Street Settlement Girls’
Clubs, was head worker in charge of rec-
reation during the weeks Bryn Mawr was
running the house. Twenty-four student
workers took care of the visitors, including
M. Minott, ’24; G. Carson, ’23; B. Mosle,
24: O. Fountain, 24; A. Smith, ’23; B.
Tuttle, ’24; M. Buchanan, ’24; J. Richards,
‘23: H. Walker, ’24; E. Sullivan, ’24; N.
Fitzgerald, ’23; A. Dom, ’22; M. Holt, 25:

Smith, ’24; M. Faries, ’24; E. Anderson,
22: H. Price, ’23; J. Henning, '23, and D.
Stewart, ’23.
Any pennies saved for Bates will be col-
lected every month in each hall. The col-
lectors are C. Baird, ’22, Radnor; A.
Smith, ’23, Merion; M. Voorhees, ’22, Den-
bigh; H. Walker, ’24, Pembroke-East ; cy
Fountain, ’24, Pembroke-West; B. Tuttle,
24, Rockefeller.
