The guest of honor this time will be Miss
To .1a,.
"Peter Ibbetson." The tea will be held

nID you happen to be lunching at the
~ Green Dragon Tea Room on Saturday
between the hours Of one and three? If so,
you must have been aware Of the fact that
the girls of Camp Iroquois. under the
chaperonage Of DR.. Ann Tomkins Gibson.
director Of the camp, and three of last
years couuselors were there having n re-
union. Not that they were noisy at all,
for has not Camp Iroquois gained the repu.
tation If being an unusually well-mannered
camp? But then, of course this is only
natural, comprising as it does, most at
tractive lot of girls, ranging from eight to
eighteen years. from all along the Main
Line, Germantown and Chestnut Hill. And
this doesn't mean. either, that they are
made to sit up like perfect little ladies all
the time, with knitting-cuite the opposite.
The entire aim of the camp is to give the
girls. healthy, happy summer by encour-
aging all kinds of athletics. particularly
walking, and the success of their efforts
was certainly proved by the way in which
Washington last year. Right here might
add, for the benefit of Shose whose mem.
cries concerning certain geographical de-
tails may be somewhat rusty--that the
height of said mountain is $500 feet. Be-
sides this they were taught swimming,
padding and all water sports under the in
struction of Betty Dallas Qhead counselor)
and Isabel Cuttings. while Mary Tyler had
charge of the basketball, tennis. archery
and baseball. The last week they were
I there they gave a play and operetta. under
| the supervision of Betty Dallas, stage
manager. and Dorothy Dinsmore. musical
counselor. and their attempts, both vocally
and histrionically, were most successful.
For the reunion they engaged a private
room upstairs in the tea room. and pos
# sibly you heard fragments of camp songs
. that may have foated to the main dining
room downstairs. after luncheon they saw
movie.
A few OF the girls who couldn't get there
on account Of the weather. or previous en-,
gagements. were so disappointed that
'pnnother reunion was planned for next Feb
ruary and later on toward spring a large
affair will be- given to which not only
the old 4 ris but tho new ones who are
l coming to camp next year. as well. will be
l. invited and initiated into the joys of
Camp iroauois life on Lake Winnepe,
saukee.
