 was spent August 7th, by members of
 the faculty and student body of the
 Normal at the Saginaw & Manistee
 Lumber company's logging camps
 north of Bellemont, which privilege was secured through Dr. k. s. Miller,
 who knew of the whole souled hospit-
 ality of the Saginaw company when
 the pleasure of others is to be con- sidered.
 Fifty-one people assembled at the station Saturday morning where a special car was to take them over the
 Santa Fe to Bellemont. Arriving at Bellemont they were met by Mir. August Lindstrom, the superintendent of the company, with logging train and crew of men to take them to the camp.
 With shout all scrambled up into the cab, on top of the engine, and all over the cars they swarmed. The engine whistle gave spasmodic shriek due to the hand of an amateur on the rope and they were whirled away thru the beautiful pine woods to the camp. At the first camp they stopped only long enough for MT. Lindstrom to telephone ahead for din ner for all.
 Reaching the main camp just at noon, they were immediately invited in to dinner-and such a dinner as it was! The table fairly groaned with good things! The cook stood in the doorway smiling to see the food dis appear, and some of the men care fully attended to the wants of the guests.
 AS soon as dinner was over, part of the crowd went off to see the logs being sawed while the rest got on the train once more and went to see the logs being loaded on the cars for shipping. The company appreciates the value of time for not a moment was lost and the men handled those monstrous trees as if they were pieces of kindling wood.
 Again the guests climbed on their train, the cars of logs were attached and the party started back to Belle mont by way of the cave. About a dozen of the logging crew accompan- jed the party and acted as guides thru the cave. The cave is about mile long, with arched ceiling of volcanic rock glistening like jewels, very high in some places, in other places so low one must bend to pass thru. From the railroad to the entrance of the cave, a distance of about half mile, these kind people have even gone to the trouble of smoothing a road for their guests.
 From the cave the party proceeded to the camp where Mir. Lindstrom had stopped in the morning to telephone ahead for dinner. Here supper was served, supper equal to the dinner which they had eaten just short time before. Thru out the camp was found cleanliness, order, courtesy and hospitality. Every man had smile for the Normal guests. After supper there was fun on the grass in front of the dining-room, dancing to the music of the Victrola, games and athl- etic stunts, after which they con- tinued on their way to BellemOnt thence to Flagstaff. The entire Nor mai gathering joined heartily in ex- pressing their appreciation of the and thorough prepara ton made for the pleasure of the party by Supt. August Lindstrom, Foreman Chas. Lindstrom, with an equal expression of great fitness to Dr. Miller for his part in the matter. There is never anything too good for visitors at their camps and they are never too busy to extend every hospitality.
