T- B- M' Plfflffifvkif l Photograph bv 5. Roots THE REV. J. MQVICKER HAIGHT At some time or other we all feel sentimental about s o m et h i n g, whether it lS really of importance in our lives or 11ot. In connection with 'fPasquaney,' we ar-e bound to get sentimental during our lives be- cause it means so much 'to any boy who has spent a summer there. Sentiment is most o-ften defined as the excitemenlt of emotion in a person. T-here' is plenty here at 'fPasquaney -to get under our skins -and get near -our hearts. The .senti- ment which we all feel for our Camp is for that reason thoroughly explainable. Wh en e v e r a b oy ithinks o-f Pasqu-aney he invariably thinks of Mr. Ned, and Mr. Ned holds ia niche in every. Pas-qu-aney boy's heart. A In the atmosphere 'abou-t our Camp 'th-ere is that which makes us love it with true feeling. The friendliness with which a new boy finds himself greeted upon his ar- rival brings from him -an immediate response. There are many places where a new boy would feel an- tagonized by the attitude which the o-ld boys show him. After a few years at Pasquaney,' a boy's senti- ment for th-e C-amp makes him realize how import-ant i-t is to- start a new boy off well. We all feel sure that if in years to co-me the old 'boys feel real sentiment for Pasquaney,' and its surround- ings, they will pass on the spirit of it, and -of Mr. Ned ito all the new boys and thus make Pasquaney,' one of fthe most nreaini-ngful 'things in their lives.

Four o'cl-oick saw 'the interruption 20 THE PASQUANEY ANNUAL firs-t taste -of S-o-utihern cooking, but of course a great deal of the credit must be given to me. Little d-id I know what fate was t'o befall me! In the afternoon Thrus,' and Fran left in a canoe in 'the direc- tion of Maybeth's Pantry to order the pies and coo-kies for our final feast. VVhi-le they were gon-e, the rest dashed into the icy Waters of the lake. Tfhen I again did my share of the work. The evenin-g was made brighter by duets by Phil and Fran,' and a so-lo en- titled I'm Flying Highl' by bla-ck Patterson, the purpose of which was to drive away the mosquitoes. This brought d-own the house. A poft fulzl of creamy hot cocoa end-ed a happy clay. ,N ' Photograph by F. O.

As f-ofr me, I -lay there 'nea'th the cfommissary tent, peaceful an-d cool from 'the dip they had given me after supper.
