 TIME AT CAMP GEL LDERS
Ky CHARLES II. MANDY

If you want to see l6o healthy, happy boys enjoying themselves to their heart $ content take a trip to Camp Louis Gel ders.f located about five miles north of Springville on the Alabama Great South-' ern railroad. It is the biggest and by far the most successful Boy Scouts camp that has been held in the district. and is composed of the several troops from the city and suburbs. The camp grounds are ideally located as they are close to a big spring of the coolest and freshest water imaginable. while right at the grounds is an institution dear to every loy's heart. dandy, big, deep swimming hoie or rather pond.
 The boys have divided themselves into two tribes. the "Cherokees and the Greeks In all games and athletic stunts the tribes are pitted against each other and great is the rivalry thereof Each tribe, strives to outplay outswim and outdrill the other and at times just before retiring for the night try to out yell each other. and you can imagine the noise l6o lusty throated youngsters can make.
 Each tribe has organized a baseball league with eight teams each, and some exciting games are played. Today they will have big track meet and on Friday a great aquatic event.
 The daily exercises are varied, but al- ways commence with a morning dip in the pool and close with a swim before sundown. In addition to the games, lee tures on woodcraft. first aid to the in iured, and demonstrations of the other features of the Boy Scouts movement are given. Setting up exercises and hikes

 want for play. X feature is the nightly camp fire" around which the novs aather and song and story hold their at

 The scouts are housed in tents placed high and dry. the sanitary arrangements are perfect and the camp is as tidy and orderly as a regular army post. = nfgat the camp is patroled with guards who are relieved at short intervals. The camp is of easy access to the city and every

USHERING IN CHOIR LOFT
Strange Methods Adopted by Some
People to Secure Choice Seats at
Billy Sunday Meetings.
DEAF MAN HEARS EVANGELIST

Billy" Sunday looks upon the ushers
as his right-hand men In the conduct OF
the meetings OF the tabernacle. and while
some OF them make mistakes in the han
ding Of the crowds. he sympathizes with
them. However. never having worked
the campaign from the ushers' angles,
even he does not fully realize some Of
the problems that confront the men who
show the people to their seats and pass
the glittering tin pans that gather in the
coin.
The ushers are expected. according to
the idea OF many OF the regular tab
ernacle goers. to retain for them the best
seats In the house, regardless OF what
other people get. Some OF these people,
when they fail 70 get the seats that they
desire. are peeved. while others swallow
the disappointment with gulp and are
on hand earlier at subsequent meetings
In the choir loft each singer has his or
her seat during the entire campaign. The
chair assigned has a number pasted upon
II and the singer has a Corresponding
number pasted in her or his singing book.
During the first two or three meetings
there was little confusion in finding
the seats for 1900 singers. but now the

he take his eyes eff MIR. Sunday. At the
close. he asserted that he had understood
every word uttered.
A new rule has been issued to the
ushers and II apr led to their badges. In
the past ushers. when they have checked
out at the close OF the meetings, have
been permitted to retain their badges
Now they turn them in and receive them
when they report for duty at the next
meeting and show their credentials. 1t
lie asserted that the change IL the result
OF certain ushers whose names are kept
secret, giving away their badges to
friends In order that these friends might
secure the choice of seats. Now no
badge Is given to an usher until he pre-
sents the proper credentials and Is prop
erly checked off.
From the viewpoint Of the ushers in
the choir loft, Mayor Dahlman was one
Of the most interested at the Sunday
meeting Tuesday night. For the mayor
a front seat had been reserved In the alto
section of the choir. During the entire
meeting the mayor watched every gesture
and movement of the speaker, enthusiast
tically joining in the applause When some
pertinent point was made. After the
meeting the mayor remarked to one of
the ushers, ut was one of the best things
I ever heard"

However, the ushers In the choir loft
have their troubles. There are men and

some of them have even gone to the ex-
tent OF FASTING numbers IN these books
In some Instances their nerve has car
ried them to the choir loft, and they
have been assigned to seats correspond

when the rightful occupants of the seats
have appeared on the scene the inter
lopers have been firmly. but pleasantly.
elected.
At one Of the meetings a woman who
had sister singing In the choir insisted
that she was entitled to a seat in the
choir loft because her sister had a sitting
there, and IL required an argument OF
five minutes to convince her that the
family relations gave her no preference
over the masses. Once convinced. she
went INTO tne Douy OF lne mouse, where
she was given a fairly good seat, and
