 There are special nights at Camp Andrews. Challenge Night, Stunt Night, Circus Night, and Election Night are some of the more important ones. Challenge Night is night of great revelry and sport There is no telling what scout may challenge another to do. Of course all challenges are,con- ducted through the different divisions. There is one little fellow on camp who challenged another scout to take out his eye. Of course the second scout was unable to do so, but not so with the challenger. He reached up and took out his eye, looked at it and put it back in place, none the worse for the strange use put to it. Of course it was glass eye, but the enterprising scout scored points for his side by successfully carrying off a challenge. All the other nights are of great inter- est in camp. On stunt night every one has stunt to pull off. Standing on ones head singing, acting, anything is acceptable. On circus night one is wild and hilarious. Many a scout rides bareback all over the camp. on a broom

Troop 42 Has Suruiued The Loss of Three Scout Masters
-W7H Z7E EAES
By COLEMAN GILLIAN.


 Early in the spring of 1917, five boys got together and decided to organize Boy Scout troop. These five boys, Sherrod Floyd. Bryson Glass. Sidnet Kronenberg, D. J. Ponce1lar and Cole Man Gillian by name, applied to head quarters for entrance into the Boy Scouts of America.
 A meeting was held and pr. Ballard who was then scout executive, attend ed. He proclaimed this bunch of boys troop. and gave them their name. Troop AZ. All that they needed was a scout master and an assistant, to be a full fledged troop. Consequently Dr.. Ballard appointed MT. Sission scout master and MT. Black assistant scout master Ts.e When the troop was fully organized the boys started a campaign for new members. They set their limit at 16. This numb CT was easily reached. but on account of several set backs the troop membership fell below this num- Der. The troop lost it's scout master, MT Sission. MT. Black, who succeeded MT. Sssion, speedily built the, troop up again, but when he had gotten the troop back to it's old level he was called. to the army. ?
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-06-15

officials are elected. Because of special merit in entertaining the Scouts on their bicycle trip to Montgomery, Chase Cornelius was elected camp jester. It takes brainy man to be fool as has been said by the ancients. Camp life is one routine of fun after another. Many a story of new and attractive stunts pulled off was told that day while the scouts were enjoying their daily siesta, or rest after dinner
 CABINS BEING BUILT
 At present the Scouts are living in tents, but cabins are in the course of construction. Each troop is allowed enough space to build d suitable camp. Troop 49 has it's cabin neared comple- ton than any other troop. When everything is complete, the cabins built the proposed lake made. and the Dall-diamond completed, Camp An drews will be a camp which will last for years.
 The scouts have full ownership of their lands. They have regular logging grounds Tod In order to enable the troops to se- cure logs for their cabins. a small port able sawmill has been secured, and it is now in service in the camp.
 Every day there is tent inspection. There are IS tents in active use Each tent tries to have the best record each day. When a tent excells it is allowed to run up it's flag on the pole which floats above the little encampment Tent in- spection comes in the afternoon after rest.
 It was sight to go along the row of tents about rest time and inspection time. All the bedding and furnishings of the tents are strung along the bushes and grass. Here and there arc scouts talk ing advantage of the rest period by put ting in overtime xt sleeping. Everyone

Camp Andrews is surely camp to be proud of. Ideally located, well super vised, and with all the advantages of the great outdoors, Camp Andrews is just the camp for the Boy Scouts.
 I am certainly glad that I took advan- tage of the courtesy extended me by Mir. Wester in inviting me to visit the camp. Besides being afforded the opportunity of seeing the camp just as it is, and of observing the camp life of the scouts, was afforded a day of great pleasure. l enjoyed that day as well as any scout in the camp.
 The Age-Herald photographer and I ar rived just as the scouts were at chow" meaning dinner Only those who have seen a bunch of hungry boys with a good meal set before them can realize the hilarity and excitement expressed by the scouts.
 Hello, work or chow first?" were the first words spoken by Sailor Eddens, as he caught sight of us. Sailor, as the boys call him. was in charge at that time, as MT. Wester was in town, and he certainly upheld the reputation of hos pitality which the scouts possess. The photographer and I decided upon duty first. so we began taking pictures.
 THE KITCHEN SQUAD
 'Here comes the kitchen squad" some one shouted. There they were about six of them A naughty bunch of fellows, these kitchen police were. Looked up to by every one, they received the best of everything. Although the kitchen squad waited on the tables and helped with the kitchen work, it was considered an honor to belong to this exclusive set of fellows. They were the pets" of the cook, Gus and you may be sure that the best of the food fell to their lot Furthermore it was not all work for these kitchen po- lice. Regular swimming hours were ob- served by them, and they took part in all the camp activities
 After the others were through, we were served with a dinner of exceeding ex- cellence. We were given seats of honor

At 5 o'clock all go in swimming. The particular day that I was there the dam had broken, and the scouts had to repair its The pol is all that could be desired A creek flows along in, a valley at the foot of the hill on which the camp is built. This creek was damned and a pool of medium depth and of desirable lergc> and width was obtained This pool is wide enough to permit diving and long enough to enable races to be held. There is a sma2 boat on the creek, and when the bows tire of swimming several mount the boat and take a ride. There are grape vines which hang out over the pool and three which swing from the banks out over the middle of the creek. It is grea funS,t to swing. if you are a good swimmer, as you may lose your hold and fall in.
 As I was saving. the boys were work ing on the dam that afternoon. Whats more. the boys were not the only ones who were working. Mir. Dimick. president of the Birmingham scout body, is a great booster of scouting. But he is not only a booster but a worker also He was there in his bathing suit, working as hard as anybody.
 The scouts use system in anything un- dertaken by them. Mir. Dimick was in charge of the repairing of the dam. or rather of the placing and packing of the sand bags which Sailor Eddens' squad kept coming in steady line. MT. Wester vas general supervisor. sometimes plac- ing bags, meanwhile standing in water from an inch to two feet deep. and again lugging bag of sand to MT. Dimisk's squad. It was some solid dam when the scouts were through with it.
 Birmingham scouts. you have a camp of which to be proud. The scout who is denied the opportunity of weeks visit to this camp is surely missing the tiirs

2 Mr. Wittichen, the third scout master built the troop up to a first class con- ditlon, but was forced to give up his scout work on account of his business Troop AZ has now secured the services of MT. Joos as their leader The troop IS now in first-class condition and has membership of Is boys. This leaves a vacancy of one boy Troop 42 has against set the limit of their mem ber- ship at. 16.
 Troop 42 has taken part in all the scout activities in which the Boy Scouts have performed since the spring Of ls17. They have always made their quota in Liberty Loan drives, and War Savings campaigns.
 Z At present there are only few ten- derfoot scouts in this troop, most are first and second-class. No scout who is not progressing all the time can re- main long in this troop.
 This troop holds it's regular meetings ever Friday night at St. Marys church. The troop as whole wishes to extend an invitations to everyone to attend a meeting of this troop and see for themselves what a real live toops real 1yy e ltalf
