Summer Camps Have Become

Advantages for Boys and Girls

the girl than discovering Just the right

most consideration: the personality of
the director and the assistants, the
personnel Of the boys. the location and
the general equipment of the camp. This
Is the right order in which to take up
the quest A camp. either large or
small, reflects In n peculiar way the per-
sonaiity Of the director. This is even
more the case than with a school, be-
cause life in camp Is essentially per-
sonal. A group OF people go apart
from the world. as II were, for an inti-
mate intercourse extending over eight
or ten weeks Upon the spirit which
animates the organization depends very
largely the welfare of those who COM
pose It, particularly OF the boys and the
girls.
Only under most extraordinary CTR
cumstances, therefore. should a boy or a
girl be entrusted to a camp when the
director has not been met by the par
ents. A first impression OF a director
is, of course, not conclusive means OF
judging. This should be followed by
tho experience over several summers OF
parents who have entrusted boys and
girls to his camp. The presumption is

From HARRY A. GARFIELD.
President of Williams College, williams
toton, Mass.
On my return to Williamstown l
find yours OF the 29th OF April, receipt
Of which has already been acknowl-
edged.
In view Of the fact that williams sus-
tains no graduate courses. 1t has been
comparatively easy for us to arrange
matters 30 as to make 1t possible for
those of our students who have been
absent in the service to make up the
work lost without arranging for sum
mer session At the FIRST meeting OF
the faculty after the s. A. T. c. was
abandoned we considered the question
of a summer session and held ourselves
in readiness to arrange for II n the
necessity arose. But, as / say, all our
students who apparently desired TO re-
turn were on the ground by about
March 1, and we have, by granting spe-
cial opportunities to take examinations
and make up work. accommodated our
selves to their wishes.
Without reference to our own situa-
ton, am heartily in sympathy with
the arrangement for summer sessions.
It Is not too much to ask our faculties
to devote themselves to teaching for
the coming summer II by so doing they
can repay in part the sacrifices made by
the student soldiers. IT is another way
Of recognizing the Importance Of finding
employment for the returned soldiers
In this case. of course. delayed employ
ment Especially in the case OF those
students who desire to go on with grad
uate work Is It important that the COL
leges should take such steps as may
be necessary to prevent the loss Of a
year OF graduate training.

From GEORGE @. CHASE,

President Of Bates College. Letciston, Ne.
Replying to yours dated April 80 but
received a few days ago. permit me to
say that I am in warm sympathy with
any definite plan that may be made ap-
propriately for a summer session in our
colleges. with the special purpose OF help
ing former or prospective students to
make up time lost by entering the
army or navy. 1t Is not feasible for
Bates to undertake this work the present
year. But your plan Is admirable. Fees
in colleges that may undertake the work
should be as low as possible. and II
should be privilege for college admins

patriotic service.
