THE RED LETTE R DAY.
The river was over flowing. People were
needing help. Babies who had lived their
few moments were rying. Children who were
old enough to talk were crying for help.
What a day. What n terrible day.
Boy S couts were doing the best they
could. Red Cross nurses were trying to -
keep people comfortable.

WHAT I LIKED BE ST ABOUT CAMP '
The best thing at camp for me was the
swimming. I learned to do many things in
the water and passed man tests. The firm
test I passed was to swim around the rafy
twice which made a distance of about 100
feet. The water w s tn to fifteen feet
deep there. Then I would have to swim awa!
from the raft and at a signal from the
whistle turn over on m back and stay in f
a motionless position for one minute. The
I could turn over and come back to the
care of poison-i

The next test was

for diving. I had tQ'

then had to swim on 3

After I had passed the tests I receiver
another cap. Now I started diving. This I 5
could do even before I knew how to swim. '
However I had trouble learning to take
steps and get the hop to spring me off thei
spring board. I would get on the board,waLn
part way and run the rest. When I got to nl
end of the board I did not stop but fell 2

N - OOCKIYG CUTMQF DOORS.
.I like to cook out of doors because it
is fun. Last summer at camp the boy scouts
cocked out of doors. We had to cook stew,
cocoa,pudding,and pork. I cooked the cocoa
gnc pudding and my buddy cooked the pork
and stew. When we were about through we
sat down and ate our dinners. The cocoa
was still cooking so we ate it later. When
we were ready to drink it, it was still
very hot and I burned my tongue,so I gave
the rest away.
When you cook out of doors it is nec-
-essnry to put the fire out and cover the
ashes before leaving. Any left over food
a long or buried.
