THE HERMIAD 5 WHAT'S THAT? fMarjorie Main-19291 NE dark, dreary night Dot and Betty were walking home from the movies. Wasn't that movie spooky? remarked Dot. Even the title scares you-'The Ghost That Spoke'. Yes, answered Betty, weren't you scared when the villain grabbed the heroine? My, but I could almost hear the chains rattle when the ghost came down the stairs. Wasn't it funny when he fell down the stairs? You could hear him groan without using hardly any imagination. Hark! Did you hear that? A groaning was heard in the bushes at the side of the road. Oh Dot! I'm scared. Look! Can't you see something white? Let's run, Betty. The girls started off on a run. Oh, it's following us! What is it? Oh Dot! The girls clutched each other in fear. Grrr! Bow-wow! Why! It is only Smith's big white collie! The dog soon disappeared and the girls continued on their way. When they came to the railroad crossing they had to stop and wait for a freight train. The train came slowly on and stopped at the crossing, the wheels squeaking from lack of grease. Their attention was drawn to the car in front of them. A door slid cautiously open and a face with wild eyes peered out at them, then the door slammed shut. Betty gave a scream and ran back, and Dot, not brave enough to stay alone, quickly followed her. They stayed at a safe distance until the freight had resumed its rambling way. The girls trudged bravely on. At their left a black and white animal appeared and followed slowly after them. Betty spied him- What's that? Dot looked and responded, A skunk. What shall we do? Nothing, if you expect to arrive home safely. They looked back, walked a few steps, looked back again and started to run. Look back, Dot, and see if it is still coming. She looked and reported that it was patiently trotting after them. Slow down. Maybe it will leave us. They halted and the animal came slowly on. Meow! Meow! Why! It is only Tabby. What geese we are! That picture was too much for our nerves. Dot picked Tabby up and Betty, looking up the road, saw a huge figure approaching. Look Dot, it is a man and I bet he is that lunatic that escaped from Brewster's Neck.

THE IDEAL CAMPING PARTY fl-Ielen Dawley-19291 I once more at lurking They burst jumped up HE ideal time to go camping is in the summer, preferably the latter part of July and the month of August, when everything is at the height of its glory and one feels the call of the woods or of the lakes. The best place for a summer camp is on a sloping hillside above a lake, which is sur- rounded by over-hanging branches, and where there are plenty of hsh, as well as other wild life. I know of just such a lake, it is set in a little valley which is completely surrounded by hills, but its beauty is little known, as the roads by which one may reach this ideal camping spot are in a terrible condition. For a real good timc, there should be at least six persons who are spending their vacation together. The old by-word the more the merrier surely applies in this situation. Of course the members of the party should be pleasant, agreeable, willing to help each other, and above all, willing to enter into each day's program with interest, never spoiling the fun of the campers through fretting or expressions of dissatisfaction with plans made by others. Camping is really no fun unless everyone is willing to pitch in and help with the daily tasks which must be done. It isn't a real party if the members hire a cook or anyone else, for that matter, when they are thoroughly capable of doing their own work. In the first place, if the members are to live in tents during their stay, they should all help with the setting up of the tents and the furnishings. If they are to use cabins, each person should furnish his own cabin, and keep it in good order. Co-operation is absolutely necessary on any camping trip. The members should work together paring the meals, keeping the camp in order and even in planning the in pre- BTYIUSC-
