Kalaria, a dark-eyed young wife and attorney, has 2,000 children. Sometimes she has to travel by jeep, muicDKCK ana on iooi, cuoid- lng mountains and fording rivers, to get around to them all but she does It.

"I travel all over Greece, visiting the-children," she says. "Sometimes the trip Is by car and sometimes by mule riding sidesaddle.

Under the plan, the foster parent contributes $15 a month for the care of a child ln Greece or ln other parts of the world and this makes all the difference between want and plenty to these young victims of modern war. "The children keep ln direct contact with their foster parents," says Mrs. Kalaris. "They exchange letters, which we translate ln the Athena office, and they send snapshots. Sometimes they even go to visit their foster parents in America." i i LUD rflCK, ITOOP Oil The Cub Pack of Troop 50 of the Boy Scouts held a covered dish dinner at the Union Congregational Church Tuesday evening, with 35 parents and boys present After the dinner a business meeting was conducted by Scoutmaster Elmer Shutts.
