TOMMY AT COLLEGE.
Ne Was Too Young to Go Camping, but
He Knew a Thing or Two.

He Knew Thing or Two.
Little Nell, Montreal Corner girl
sent this story to the Toronto Mail and
Empire:
So Tommy was sent TO college. II
was summer, and six boys out of Tom
my's class were 20 go ON a camping ex-
petition on the following morning. The
boys were in great glee, but as Tommy
was considered too young to go he was
in the dumps and vowed revenge. Next
morning was very bright and fine. The
boys carried the tent and trapping TO
the boat, and rowed down the river TO
little island known as the jungle. When
they reached land, they appointed Harry
Clifford captain, and each promised on
his honor as a gentleman to obey and
stand by his captain. Then they pitched
their tent and got breakfast. AT about
O'Clock p. IN. you might have seen
Tommy slip out of the college grounds
with a bundle in one hand and make for
boat which was always kept at the
little college wharf. The bundle he car
ried was the skin of the only bear ever
found In Pepperton. AT $50 p m. you
might have seen a bear wandering
about the jungle.
All quiet in the jungle tonight. No
sound stirs the silence except the six
healthy SHORES of six healthy boys,
which rise and fall with blissful ca
dence. Hank Who goes there? There is
a slight rustic in the underground. A
faint light appears, quivers for an in
slant and is gone. There is dead silence
and then another rustic. The flap of the
tent opens and large animal slowly |
enters. The six sleepers, methinks,
might as well have been the seven |
sleepers (of whom doubtless you have !
heard), for they still snored, blissfully
unaware Of the impending danger. Sud-
denly "a loud growl awoke them. The
night lamp dimly burning showed them
the ferocious features of a large brown
bear. II they had not been scared out of
their wits, they would have noticed
how ridiculously small the body was in
proportion TO the head, but they were
too badly scared 60 notice anything. Up
sprang the captain in hot haste and
avoiding the bear as much as possible
ordered his men TO take TO the boat.
which order was implicitly obeyed, one
officer having the presence Of mind to
rescue the night lamp.
When they reached the boat and had
rowed some distance from shore, they
all recovered sufficiently to recollect

Jacks Point OF view.

His little sister pouted:
81 think 10 was a shame
For you TO get the scolding
When you were not 20 blamei
Why didn't some one tell them
The truth about the ball
That Freddy Fearing threw IL,
And 10 wasn't you nj ALL
But that's the way IL always is.
It's just the same old song
When any mischief happens
It's Jack who's i'm the wrongl
And other boys, I'm sure Of 1t,
Are every bit rs bad.
I'm sick OF such injusticei
10 makes me hopping madi"
Jack kissed his little sister.
''Oh, don't you frcti" he said,
With "A twinkle in his laughing eyes.
And don't you peach on Fred.

(He was scared 20 death, you see,
When the ball went through the win.
dow)
To leave ID all 10 me.
Nobody fbbed about IL,
But the fellows ran away.
Twas Just the situation
Somebody had 20 stay.
OF course I caught 10 heavy,
But, bless you, think what fun
For me to get scolding
For q thing hadn't donel"

Don't close up the League during the
summer If you can avoid it. If some
are away, let the others meet. Have the
meetings out of doors in some pleasant
garden or veranda If possible. Have alb
sent members write Of their vacation
experiences and read the letters at the
meetings Of the chapter.
Especially let those who are absent
from home be ON the alert for items of
interest to make bright and profitable
the services after their return. 1t is sur
prising how active ones thoughts can
be in planning autumn and winter work
when away from the rush and crowding
OF the daily routine. We need to get at
distance occasionally to see the duties
and calls of service in their true per.
spective. Then they come out in clearer
light and more exact proportion and re-
lation.
Mingling with new friends, we touch
a new world. Wider horizons open
around us. Use your notebook. Catch
the suggestions which come to you with
freshness. II you don't note them, Won
will forget them before you return
home. Plan ahead. Think out the
schemes which come to mind All will
be OF use sometime Anyway it will
give you readiness for emergencies when
they arise. Stock up for days aheadl

no time will be lost to make the condi-

to the camping grounds, there is a
dlfference of opinion among the regi-
mental officers. Some think it would
be an ideal undertaking, while others
think the soldiers are not in condition
TO stand such long march. If left to
the enlisted men the idea of marching
would be in poor favor
