Tan on Pale Cheeks.

The various boys camps, under the
auspices Of the Y. M. c. A. and diner
emit city churches, which have been
held the past three weeks at nearby

Lake and the Fortst. Presbyterian
church, on Crosse lie. The Boy
SCOUTS madeu p the parties largely
and the simple rules OF Scout life OBJ
tanned. Each boy had to do his share
OF the camp housekeeping and many
a boy learned valuable lessons In
promptness and orderliness. Fishing
hunting and outdoor athletics of all
kinds formed the amusements, with
reading and storytelling for rainy days
and evenings around the camp fire.
The living near to nature" and active
life In the open proved Just the right
thing for many OF the boys who left
their schol books looking pale and
fEail and returned with healthy bronze
on their cheeks, springy step and q
large reserve stock OF strength and
good spirits.
