A X A ff Q-15, ,ff VT-':, ' ff K fff if f Q 4' -Q a beautiful spot, and it did not take us long to get into our bathing suits and have a nice swim. After the swim We had our sandwiches, and we were try- ing to imagine how we were gO1Ug to climb the mountain. The grounds where the girls parked resembled .Ellis Island after a large group of immigrants have landed. 'Everyone was in the midstbof a good sleep when along came Mr. Smith and the Nissen Brothers, saying that 11: was time to move on. . E VVe all prepared to climb the mountain butrwe crossed the brook and were told that we were to remain there for the night. Poker, bridge, paddling and swim- ming ensued until a motorboat sounded and, much totour delight, Alta arrived with our mail.'Supper was sure de- lightful, everyone having onions, potatoes and ham. After supper there was a wild scramble for beds and a few strenuous games finishediiup the evening. The -night was uneventful with the ex- ception of a few wild horses and, well, we'll leave the rest for Fhord Harris to tell. In the morning the girls got up and cooked their bacon and eggs. Oh, yes, we had our pans to wash and what a scrubbing they got. A We all started down the hill on our homeward journey, and it was a mighty hot one, for we had our blankets to carry. l,Ve arrived home at ten o'clock and all voted that it was the best time ever. CONVICTS MARSHALL AND IEPACK- ARD TAKE NOTICE Discovered-a detective in Sing-Sing, This morning Detective Vliilliamson pro- claimed that mice had been trespassing on her bed. For a proof she had several feathers and a. -few cracker crumbs. Since when have mice acquired feathers. On Sunday afternoon, June 21, a ser- vice' was held for the dedication of the bridge to Daddy Nissen. 'lApril Showers,', Daddy's favorite song, was sung, a'brief summary of his life was given' by, Miss Sadie Perley. Dr. Gray dedicated the bridge and hereafter it is to be known as the Nissen Bridge. The seniors then pledged their support to the school and Mr. Harry Nissen. The service was very impressive and brought back the memory of Daddy to those who knew him. TOPSY TURVY INSPECTION IN THE DOGGIE HOUSE For once the doggies stood their ground, And when inspection time came around, They thought they'cl try to fool Dr. Gray, And perhaps she woulcln't take points away, Toothbrushes all were stood on their heads Wfhile over they all turned their beds, The trunks were all pushed the wrong way, We wondered what on earth she'd say, Rubbers and soap dishes were a mess, The clock on the shelf looked in distress, The sign on our wall about Our Boss, What to do with it we were at a loss, TVe decided that we'd leave it there, To show Dr. Gray our treasure rare, Harder than ever they all did work, And not one girl her duty did shirk, Marge said that she was going to get out, That she meant it we know without a doubt, Nevertheless, when inspection time came, She was there and took all the blame, Five points added on, how good we felt, That Dr. Gray with us so kindly dealt. GENERAL HINTS If you wish to practise for the base- ball games, you will find a pitcher on the wash stand. As there is no clock in the Hung you can hear the bed tick. Campers should not worry about their board bills as the camp is supported by its foundations. If you are thirsty after taps you will find a spring in the bed. The Manor Housei' is not haunted al- tho' the painter hung a border the other day when he papered the wall. Don't go to setting-up-if you do, your resulting healthy appetite will tax the pantry. Always start several songs at breakfast, the rest of the camp will listen to you. Always stand up in a canoe-what's one camper more or less. Donft turn out your lights at taps. It's good debating practise to convince the faculty that the bugle didn,t blow. Page one hundred . is , In 3 , x l QA ,pf I NAXAQNA I 4690 X Q 6 'Cf-'AQ-ffff swag,-VJ?-U,,Mf Lt
