FROM THE CAMPERS.

/ CAMPS sEEKLusHUN d wRECKREATIoN.
/ A war cloud is hanging over Fortune
lake between the two navigation com.
panies and unless the iinternational
peace commission nterieres there will be
a hot time.
Chas. Anderson and wife ,.Ethe thrifty
farmers in the vicinity Of Fortune lake,
are reaping rich harvest from tile
campers. They supply them with milk,
cream and vegetables aud fine products
they have, too.
Ifyou want co know how it.seems to
monkey with hornets nest ask the
campers at camp "Seeklushun"
CAMP NoIsYPEoPLE.
The personnel Of this camp, differs
very much from that Of Camps "See-
klushun" and "Wreckreation" Here
Hl conversation is carried on in whispers.
Chas. Dusenbery bears the distinction OF
being the noisicst whisperer in the bunch
while Lou Henry has sworn eff on
whispering and substitutes smiling his
answers to any question you may ask
OF him. Mrs. f. d. Ball is the champion
whisperer Of the party. She whispers
all day long and sits up nights to finish
the job. Mrs. L. A. Henry il the only
one that breaks the rule Y Sometimes
she talks. Mrs. G. NJ Dusenbcry is the
only one that objects to the whispering
rule and so strenuous is she in her OPP
position that she reiuses,to talk at al
and has said nothing since coming into
camp. Now, readers, you can imagine
the difference in makeup between this
camp and the other two. In the latter
camps you may here BRAD" Webb
yelling out at any hour in the night to
one OF the boys to cross the lake and get
a pail Of water, while A. Justified ber-
ates Providence for creatingI mos
quitoes and placing them IN such close
proximity to his bed,

But the SWEETEST dish held out to the
people Of this camp IL the moonlight
