q UILDING tree houses is such lots
IHof fun and there can be such good
times in them after they are built
that it is a mystery why more girls and
boys do not follow the example of the lit
tie Campfire girl whose tree house ap-
pears in the picture and erect one of these
airy dwellings for their own occupancy.
The girl who built this very charming tree
house is Campfire girl and the daughter
of Mrs. Luther NJ. Gulick, who was one
of the founders of the nation wide organ
ization of Campfire Girls. Not only did
little Miss Gulick build this house, but
when the family moved from one summer
home and took up their abode in another
she took down the house from its lofty
quarters and carried it with her and put it
up in a tree near the new home. So you
see you needn't hesitate to build your
tree house because you are not sure where
you are going to be next year. You can
simply build portable house which with
little trouble can be taken down and
put up elsewhere.
OF course the shape and size of tree
house are apt to depend largely on the sort
of tree in which it is to be erected. But
it is safe to say that if you are not sure
your tree house will be permanent in one
spot it is best to build it rather smaller
than your ambitions might at first dictate,
for even if your present tree Is large
enough to accommodate large mansion
the next tree that you may have to utilize
may have no such majestic proportions.
One room is all that tree house can CON-
tain, and it isn't at all necessary that it
should have roof. The access to it must
b - cay as possible, and yet many boys
