SEA SHORE RESORTS
FOR VACATIONS ARE
CONDUCTED BY W.C.T.U.
■■ — -•—
LONDON, July 1 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—Americans who
find the cost of vacations so high that
they can not afford this year to go to
the mountains or sea shore will be
interested in the way in which the
Young Men’s Christian Association is
attempting to solve the problem in
England.
Seaside profiteers have made the
vacations so expensive for the aver
age English family that thousands who
before the war sought recreation on
the east coast of England were unable
to do so this year. The hotels have
jumped their prices to unheard of fig
ures.
The Y. M. C. A. is offering these
families bed and breakfast in these
east coast resorts at $4.20 a week for
each person, and it proposes to fur
nish nurses and accommodations for
children so that mothers can have a
real holiday.
To accomplish this the association
rented a hotel at Felixstowe and an
other at Southend, and established a
tent camp at Herene Bay, equipping
them with such furniture as it was
able to quickly obtain. All valuables
must be left at home, and only old
clothes can be worn.
No charge is being made for chil
dren less than a year old, and reduced
prices are quoted for those of less
than eight years. This permits a fam
ily in ordinary circumstances to en
joy the holiday season at much the
same price as prevailed before the
war.
Y. M. C. A. leaders are planning to
extend their vacation accommodations
to other shore resorts and to use for
j this purpose two military camps.

diately after he visits Zeebrugge,
where he will pay tribute to the Brit
ons’ naval efforts on the coast. De
tails of Alfonso’s visit probably will
be arranged later.

lowed to return to Mexico.
