FARMER'S HEART SOFTENED
BY COUNTRY WEEK CHILDREN?
He Warned Poor Lads From City .Sol to Enter Orchard, but
Relented When They Caught His Unruly Swine
' . ,
THE farmer promised all -oils of vio
lence to the boys of the Children's
Country Week Farm if they came into
Ills orchard for apples. Hut when
they captured and returned to him to
runaway pigs his stony heart crumbled;
and he told the bojs they could have

more than three hundred apples. The
latest reports received by the Children's
Country Week Association are that the
Jfarmer is giving due consideration to1
the question of open door for the roc- '
ing season.
This year the association is Hop-

sociation was not pure thnt durinc the
war it could continue the work, which
in supported by voluntary contribu
tions. Sufficient funds were collected,
however, to give a ten -day vacation to
three thousand children and mothers.
Each house on the several farms op
erated by the association is guarded
oyer by a house mother, and there nre
counselors for both the bojs aud the
girls, who teach woodcraft and the
names of trees and birds and generally
acquaint the children with country life.
At Paradiss Farm, near Bradford, all
the truck used by thevisitors is raised.
Cows and chickens nre on all the farms.
During the season of 1018 the IJele
Tue bouse at Paradise Farm served
7434 meals.
Many of the children come to the
farms half fed, and virtually all come
from contested city districts. The sight
of open country and the taste of fresli
iruit and vegetables are treats to them.
The association aims to be both edu-
cational and recreational and has spe- ,
CJal teachers for the kindergarten chil- ,
dren. There are also counselors who j
ran tell stories and entertain the cbil-
dren. Mothers who come with (.mail .
