Rev. Donald West and w. r. Boor-
man spent Friday in Norrie and vicin-
ity looking for a suitable camping
place to be used this summer by Pres
byterian boys. Miss Alta Colby's Sum
day school class will camp there, as
will also the boy scouts of the church.
A fund of SIS was earned by Miss
Colby's class and this will be used to
help defray expenses. Rev. West and
w. r. Boorman will act as camp
directors and Ben Kuebler will assist
in caring for the campers. Fhe time
for the two camps has not been set,
but the most favorable to all seem to
be as soon as school is out.
