HEALTH CAMP PARTLY DESTROYED
EQUIPMENT TOTALLY RUINED (United Press Association) CHRISTCHURCH, December 20. The children’s health camp at Akaroa was partly destroyed by fire early this morning, when a 20-roomed house which had been leased for three months by the Sunlight League caught fire. The house was furnished only yesterday and it was completely stocked with everything for maintaining a big party of children. It was regarded as the most complete camp ever established. All the equipment was destroyed and arrangements were made today for the use of the school for the camp.
