AT TINE LAKE.
Campers Having q Merry Time, But Many
leavlnQ for Home.


On Tuesday the Mason Valley con-
tlngent took the trip around the
lake. There were over forty in the
crowd. The boat left at $40 a. M,
going first to Glenbrook, where a
stop of ten minutes was made.
From there we passed along close to
the shore passing Hot Springs and
arrived at Comedian Bay at 1890,
when a general hunt for comedians
was made and a bountiful lunch
spreed on the grass, to which our
appetites did justice. From Corne-
liam Bay we visited Tahoe City and
walked from there to the Tavern,
when we again took the boat and
proceeded to McKenneys, where
dancing was INDUCED in for half
an hour when we again took the
boat, going up through Emerald
Bay and around the Island, stopping
at Tallac for an hour and returning
to Bijou at p. m. The trip was
thoroughly enjoyed by all. No one
was seasick and Lake Tahoe was
pronounced to be one of the most
| wonderful of Gods creations.
On Sunday there was picnic held
in the grove at Tallac which was
attended by nearly every camper
from Mason Valley. After the
lunch, the sights of Tallac were
viewed and some of the party en-
joyed a few games of ten pins for an
hour. Many of the campers are 60
ing to Hope Valley this week to get
some of the good fshiug reported to
be there.
| Camp "Take-it-ezy" is getting
lazier every day. On the day after
the trip around the lake breakfast
was served at dinner time. A good
cook and nurse for the baby could
have found openings that morning.
Johnnie Snyder and family arriv-
ed on Wednesday and located up
near the spring in the big timber,
and now Johnnie is looking for big
trout and big time.
NJ. E. Wilson, the Lyon County
banker, arrived on "Wednesday for
a few days recreation and rest.
The bathers were highly enter
tanned one day this week by seeing
Barney ducked and the episode was
especially enjoyed by those who had
received the punishment from
Barney.
The hard times" party Saturday
night was well attended and
thoroughly enjoyed. The first prize
for best make up was awarded Miss
Pearl Collins and Mr.. Schmidt and
second prize went to Miss Kathleen
Hironymous and Miss Young. Miss
Kathleen had on her overalls and
took the part Of man.
The fishing trip up to Angora
Lake was a dismal failure in as
much as we failed to find the lake
and Ang. Mcleod got separated from
the crowd and had to walk home.
One of the great benefits of camp
ing is the early hours, but some
of the young people seem to have
the wrong conception of early hours
and are keeping the wee sma' hours.
A large crowd visited Glen Alpine
| one day this week ana pronounced
that country the finest scenery in
these parts.
Some of the campers are taking
their departure for home, 10th to
leave but well rested and prepared
for another year of strenuous duty,
but new arrivals are coming daily
and there are probably more people
here now than at any time during
| the season.
While some of the folks We're try
ing to get rid of the excess real es-
tate in their wearing apparel on
Saturday the girls attempted to
push John and Ira into the lake, but
it seemed their judgment was bad.
In the melee that followed Mrs. Cru
Der and Mrs. Wagner were well
soused under the water.
| There was a musical entertain
ment around the camp fire of Chas.
Gallagher one night this week, and
the vocal and instrumental parts
were well rendered and much en-
ljoyed.
