hard struggle. He then carried it to
tent No. 3 and tossed it among the
%sleepers.

News.
The commission met today and
President Keye assigned the differ
ent departments. Ed. Holmes was Civ
en- the police department, Red Web
ster the department Of sanitation and
health; Frank CLANCY was made COM
missioner Of the culinary department
and Hewison Pollock drew the de-
partment Of entertainments.
New System Of Camp Duties.
This year a new system of camp
duties was inaugurated. Instead Of
putting the kids in pairs and working
out a schedule as in other years, this
year a tent takes and performs the
duties Of the, day. We believe this
to be the better system.
Fishing Party.
This forenoon a party Of enthusi-
astic fishermen went to Long Pine.
(called Little Spine by Fat) to fish,
They were all together too enthusiastic
for they did not get back till about 1
o'clock after which they enjoyed a
pleasant half hour on the wood pile.
Editorial.
Far be it from us to knock; on the
contrary we believe most heartily In
the principle of Boosting but we would
wish to make the following sugges-
tons to the sanitation commission:
There was a clarinet In tn ecook
shack, belonging to a member OF the
camp, and everybody that came in
the building thought it his religious
duty to stick it in his mouth. 1t is
our opinion that the sanitation com
missioner should enlist the camp in
| stopping this. Also there is a large
amount Of paper laying. around the
