TO a few friends. among whom were
some Il the faculty: he explained that
no better physical exercise could be
found in the world than tramp!ng
trips across such country as sur
rounded Hanover. And almost before
ne knew ii. presto, the outing clun
came into existence. with twenty
members. This was only n few years
ago; to-day the membership includes
hundreds, 1t has acquired valuable
properties for It's purpose. with a chain
ot camps leading to the White Noun
tains, sixty miles distant. and so great
has been its success that the example
has been followed by a number OF
other colleges.
Every student who goes to Dart
mouth as a freshman is eligible for
the Outing Club. and a very large
proportion of the students qualify by
the simple process of registering their
Games and paying 81 for annual dues.
Before they have been long in the
college town they are invited to Join
a hike some pleasant afternoon in the
early autumn. and a group of from a
dozen to fifty starts of for an objec-
tive point a few miles away. Lit
tie by little the newly arrived lads
are hardened to tramping through
carefully arranged hikes.
Sometimes a C~ongenial member of
the faculty goes along, with no idea
Of maintaining order. however, for
the students throw restraint to the
winds, as well as care and classroom
decoruin, and fairly riot in the great
outdoors. Yet II frequently happens
that the faculty member viii add in
terest to the adventure by informal
ak concerning evidences OF glacial
action TO be perceived by the trained
eye, or by comment on forest growth
through which the party passes, or
by calling attention TO birds and ami
mails encountered in the woods.
As the autumn progresses longer and
more ambitious hikes are undertaken
into the New Hampshire hills or
across the Connecticut River toward
Nermont's Green Mountains. Finally
when the snow lies deep on al the
country the more stalwart and har-
dcncd go forth on journeys of sixty
miles or more to Mount Washington,
at the base of which lies the hundred
acres Of Skyline Farm, with its build
ings and furnishings, an adequate and
beautiful outing clubhouse. 1t must
not be imagined, however, that the

Along the line is a chain Of four camp
cabins, refugees from WEAKNESS.
These are always open ready for
members who may come that way,
and furnish overnight resting places
with food and other supplies stored
for emergency. Each has n large
open fireplace and Is constantly
visited by skating parties or others
on snowshoes or skis. Because OF

and sports during the open season of

all the rest. But when winter shuts
down hard on such activities. when
three feet of snow hes on the level,
with a crust on top Of several inches.
when the mercury registers from a
few degrees above zero to fifteen or
twenty below and blasts OF icy winds

was by william krox. a scotsman.

this poem in a newspaper early in
