The interest of north short· people in Arden · Shore never ceases, and from week to " ·cek new appeals and announcements find their W<l-" to the public. No\\· we haYe at hat~d a short notice of the origin of Arden Shore camp, no doubt unknown to many members of the association. as well as to the laity. Hem· man~· people realize that Arden · Sho re summer camp for mothers and children originated in Glencoe? Tt \\'as founded in 1901 In· Mrs. Leila ~fartin as the Stllllll1er camp for the less fortunate people from Gads Hill settlement in Chicago. The camp ·occupied the land loaned it on the property known as the Lichstein property just north of the Lake Shore Country cluh. \Vomen . and girls from Glencoe and other suhurhs gave their services to take care of the thirty members of the camp. In 1908 the camp moved up to its own protwrty north of Lake Bluff. Xnw Arden Shore accommodates five-hundred persons at a time and vacations are g-iven to twenty-three hundred mothers and children. durin g the hot summer months. It Las been estimated hr a reliable authority that Arden Shore does the large:-t percentage of free 'Charity work of any fresh ai.r camp near Chicago. Those who enjoy its privileges arc recommended by different social agencies, by the · hoard of education. and the Chicag-o hospitals. The mothers, tired and worn with many cares, grow young again with their games and merry parties, but they also learn how to take intelligent ca.rc of their babies. to keep their homes clean, and give their children well cooked and nourishing food.
