CAMP HABTDE W.ITH ME VV'hat happened -on the memorable camping party led to Crerscent Beach by the Messrs. Waflter H. Lillfird, slr.. and VVhitner Bissell has for long been a mystery to al-l except those who had the honor of go-ing. The date of departure was Monday, July the eighth, a rather moirst -day. but nevertheless it wa-s clear enough by 1:30 for the parties to leave. Photograph by S. Roots THE SPARKLING MASS OF CELEBRITIES First, the name of the camp might be explained so that the innocent bystander be not misled. It de- volved from the title of a hymn well lI -iipll l Photograph by Henry Miller THE SITUATION WAS IDEAL kno-wn to us all, and especially to th-ose o-n the party as exc-eedingly close harmony was developed on it by Rhett Elliott and Tack Hard- wick. From ia naturalist's standpoint our situation was ide-a-I with t'he excep- tion of some dozen mosquitoes. Nature in all it-s grandeur sur- roun-de-d us and, excluding some of New Ham1p.shire's highest social lights who roamed along the beach, our privacy was c-omplet-e. From the viewpoint of 'a sports- in-an the -conditions were ideal for Wa'ter Basebaill and sports -of that ilk. On Tuesday afternoon our efforts on the watery dia-mond com- m-enced. Cliffe being the opponent o-ur task was n-o easy one. Hence our defeat, t'he score being but 2-O. was no reason for us to feel at all blue. T-hat evening we couldn't exactly rest on -our laurels, 'but we did the be-st we could and were even entertain-ed by an orchestra just across the inlet. --- A 4: 1.--I-' ..n....4........u-...Q-1.

On the morning of th-e third day tw-o sons of the prophet did descend from the Land of Canaan QBellej to the Land -o-f Goshen. Z. And while the Gos-henites yet s-lept they removed 'the incense pot Cfryuing panj and left it at M-ount Sinai fCliffej. . 3. So there was a famine because of the evil done in the sight of no one. 4.

THE PASQUANEY ANNUAL 25 The foll-owing morning contained little of interest except that enough wood w'as gathered by everyone on th-e party t-o hold us f-or the rest of the week. In the afternoon we played ho-st to mem-be-rs of the Cliffe and Hornets part-ies, respectively. A thrilling water baseba-ll game t-ook placeg in fact it was so thrillin-g and we-ll-worth watching that we eve-n felt i't our pleasure to have -the hon-o-r of viewing it. An extra inning was necessary to- break the existing dead- l-ock at the end of the gameg hen-ce t-he game was fair enough from our standpoint. Thursday morn-ing was an ex- tremely eventful one in com-pari-son with the preceding -ones. When the doctor arrived a go-od bit of mail arrived in which were contained some College Board marks.

That morning 'also fea'tured a close shave by Mr. Lillard. Photograph by Henry Miller A CLOSE SHAVE BY MR. LlLLARD In th-e afternoon Cliffe was again our -opponent in water baseball. This time luck was more -our way. Nevertheless, we had to do some high class debating :t-o- finally win the game 'by the score of 3--Z. After some C-liffite-s had returned to 'Cres- cent for various articles of clot-hin-g which they had left beh-ind in their first visift, we got to work o-n the tradition-al 'ffeedf' Per usual it was just about the 'most enjoyable part of the camping party, at least it was for those who appreciate good food.
