THE .IIUSE Camp 66 QQ t'.Ull' has moved again, and this time it will stay. The new eamp is near Parry Sound on 'tieorgian Bay, one ot the loveliest spots in tintario. Where there was but one hnnter's eabin last spring. there are now two eabins. a big lodge. and a. row of tents along the edge of the water. Behind these is a wide field for games and beyond that a beautit'nl t'orest ot' pines and poplars. Follow- ing the path in t'ront ot' the tents, we eome to a high rounded roek. high above the water, on whieh all the eampers assemble for morning worship. This is the plaee where we. the fortunate first campers spent the happiest days ot' our summer vacation. NVe ealled the eamp an aerodrome and played at being aviators. The dining-room was the hangar and the eabins bore equally appropriate names sueh as the eoekpit. tail- spin, propeller and so on. iVe were the merriest buneh ot' fliers. and the most earet'ree.f-t'or what was there to worry over? Imagine running oti' to the woods for ten days. free from the noise and heat of the eity. with thirty other girls your own age, from Toronto high selioolsl There was everything to make any kind ot' girl happy.-a morning dip to pep you np. and a long swim in the afternoon. baseball and volley ball games, boat trips. and eanoeing under the supervision of the leaders. A stunt and song eontest between the three groups made one evening roek with fun. Many ot' the songs that are new to the Maids of Malvern originated at eamp. Une morning. bet'ore the sun was up. the nature study group went, a-hunting for the songs of birds. Jimmy Skunk was off on a hunt ot' his own but we let him follow it. Paddling quietly up a tiny ereek, we searehed the trees for the shy musieians. The bell like tones of the vireo, the merry ''teaeher-teaeher'' ot' the oven bird, the sudden ehunk of a. frog. and a tleeting glimpse ot' a bright-eyed water snake slipping through the water. these are a t'ew ot' the treasured memories whieh we brought, home. l'erhaps we will remember longest the quiet time in the morning that eaeh eamper spent alone, lt was not eompulsorysjnst ten minutes in the eainp program set apart l'or thinking. lt was in this early morning hour. when the mist was melting away from the lake and hillsides, and in the evening around our eamptire when we watehed the first pale stars peep ont ol' a sunset sky. that we loved eamp the most. There was a niauie spell about it that no one may understand until they have been there, l,it'e is more interesting. more ot' an adventure, beeanse we have ln-en to eainp. liorothy Seliaulller, VB. s
