THE BOY SCOUT CAMP

In camp is the place to learn
to cook, that's what I've found
out. Also if you need good APP
petite, go camping, that is the
place where you will get it. In
the Boy Scout Camp this year
most of us cooked for our First
Class test and some of us for our
Second Class test, and we all
came out alright. We learned
how to tie several new knots. a
new game Of ball and how to
bake several things over the
camp fire and to make eats that
would satisfy your appetite,
Swimming was pretty good but
the water was a little cold. We
had some visitors all the time
and Hjalmar and Svend Peter
sen were fine ball players. Sun
day afternoon more visitors came
and ice cream was served by
Louis Olsen.
Scout William Hansen.

Camping was all right but it
was little too cold in the night.
Scout Henry Hansen.

We scouts have surely inn
proved in our cooking since last
year. Not only did we cook
many new things, but also cooked
the old things and made them
better and more nourishing. Of
course there were a few things
spoiled and thrown away but no
one can become perfect in any
thing the first time they try. We
made flapjaeks, boiled and fried
potatoes and eggs, made coffee,
chocolate and postum. fried ham,
bacon, chicken and many other
things all of which we made the
best we could, and not even the
ladies that came to look at us
could keep from asking for a
taste.
Scout Rudolph Frokjer.

The Scoutmaster blew his
whistle and the the Scouts came
from all sides because they knew
that they were going to have a
game of Dodge Ball. They had
chosen sides and were ready to
play as soon as the signal was
given whiss-s and the ball flew
in between the bunch and struck
a boy, he went out and the ball
was thrown from the other side.
The object is to keep lodging the
ball all the time.

After dinner we cleaned up camp

Prof. Nielsen gave a talk, then
we played dodge ball until sup

packed up and went home.

"A scout is brother to every
other scout" This law was put
into practice i'll the camp to a far
greater extent than last year.
The spirit shown by the boys is
worthy of commentator. it
seemed that each tried to Guido
the other in helpfulness and con
sideration. May this spirit
flourish and become firmly inn
planted in the lives of the scouts
Obedience to directions was
practically perfect.

A Surprise
When we came out of the
water after a cool swim and were
sitting on the grass lacing and
buttoning our shoes we were
surprised to see Mr.. Olsen and
the Scoutmaster coming over to
the camp with a big key of Ice
Cream. We all went and got our
plates and spoons, and Mr.. Olsen
certainly had a job dishing out
ice cream. We all thank him for
it. Scout Richard Petersen.

The Scoutmaster told a ghost
story. a good one too, if you don't
believe it ask some Of the scouts.
Another story told by Svend
Petersen was also good. The
story read by Mrs. Nielsen made
us feel what it is to have a good
home. After that we sang
several songs and then united in
prayer.
