Kipling well knew the appeal and
value OF the summer camp when he
penned those lines. He appreciated
the yearning OF the normal hoy, as
the summer days go by, to get away
from the dust and noise OF the CITY
and into the wild. open country, and
in the shade Of the pine and the oak
breathe the ozone in the silence OF the
woodland: learn the language or ma
ture. and in the darkness gaze INTO
the starlit spaces and find them
friendly. For nine or ten months each
year our boys are preparing them.
