From The Indianapolis Star, Wednesday, June 30, 1915: Appropriate exercises will mark the official start of the 1915 season and the 25th anniversary of the Summer Mission for Sick Children at Fairview. The summer mission is known throughout the United States as the Indianapolis plan for caring for sick babies during the heated season. The public is invited to visit and inspect the institution. A corps of young women will meet all cars and show visitors over the grounds. There will be attendants in the hospital, dormitory, dispensary, and day nursery to explain the work and arrangements for the care of children. Since summer weather came a few days ago, several mothers and the babies already are been sent to the facility. Entrance to the mission is off of 43rd Street west of Byram Av.
