Last Call For Camp

This is the last call for camp, as
we expect to close it on or about
August 23rd. 1t looks as if these
next three weeks are going to be
very full ones. Troop IA expects to
send at least fifteen next Monday,
and Troop 26 has registered at least
twenty Scouts and number of
fathers. and still has some to hear
from. The week of the 10th, Troop
16 will send its second batch, and
Troop II will also have large squad.
Troop Is hopes to have quite a num-
Der out also. y number of other
Troops will send small groups or
individual boys, so that it looks as
if camp will be occupied to it's
capacity. However. any Scout who
wishes to spend a week or so in
camp will always be provided with
tent shelter and cot. and no one
worries about the eats.
Since the Hood, swimming is bet

TROOP II BUYS 20 TENTS

Last Monday evening Troop IL
held its meetings out of doors in
stead of going into the Church.
Camp plans were discussed and 1t
was decided we would go to Mt.
Gretna If we could possibly get the
ground. Last week Mr.. Manser
bought twenty tents from the Armory
they are by s 1-2 wall tents and
have flys. they have no poles but
they can be easily made. 1t was
also decided we would go the last
two weeks of August.
If the ground cannot be secured
at Mt Gretna we probably will go
up in Clarks valley about one mile
above Alger Boiley's farm where we
have had two very nice over night
hikes All members are urged to be
present at the meeting on Monday
evening, August 11th, as all Camp
orders and final arrangements will
be given out'at that time.

Troop Is Enjoys Day
in Reservoir Park

AS the days grow warmer and old
Sol continues to warm Mother Earth
more and more each day as the end
of summer nears; it is only natural
that the fellows seek the quiet cool
spots of the outdoors. At least, so
it happened with Troop 13. and as
our weekly meetings are continued
throughout the summer for those who
are at home, we left the Boyd Mem
orial Bldg. last Friday evening for
Cherry Hill at Reservoir Park. There
were twenty-five present and the
usual program was carried out. OF
course the Scouts had to have some
activity, physically, so therefore
sides We're picked and a tussel was
on. But this soon gave way to
more popular game of Chase. Sides
were chosen and the first side given
so many minutes to get away after
which side number two gave chase
The game is something like hare and
hounds. but here there was no trail
TO follow. so the game lasted quite a
length of time. After we had en-
joyed this game, the Scoutmastel
who had a number of the younger
Scouts with him decided that it was
growing late and we must start fol-
home, but the other fellows were
not to be found and the ScoutmasteI
knowing that they could look out fol
themselves, started out with the
younger boys.
In the meantime, the older Scouts
decided to give the Scoutmasters
side scare and lay in wait until thai
side should pass by where the larger
fellows were hiding. The Scout
master, who is very observing
noticed that the bushes were NOV
ing in an unnatural manner and Sc
without telling the fellows with him
or showing any sign of his learned
knowledge, he left with the younger
boys by another way for home. o.
course the story ends just right. The
joke was never learned; the Scout
master had his charges home ant
the park turned over to the Older
fellows of the Troop. When we ar
rived home. however. the day wa!
coming to close with chimes peal
ing out the end of another perfec
day.

TROOP IA AND

Big Time Had by Boys Who
Hear Some Dandy
Speeches

last Friday Troop IA and Troop
Is held a joint meeting at the head
quarters of Troop IA. Scoutmaster
Miller of Troop 19 gave an illustrat-
ed lecture on France. Scout EXecu-
tive Virgin was present and told
us the duties and responsibilities of
good Scout. Scout Commissioner
German, Field Executive Hunts
berger, also made addresses. Our
Scoutmaster, Scott Burgoon pre-
sided.
After the visiting Troop and the
officials had gone We made our
noon, and the following day seven
members of the Troop under the
leadership of Asst Scoutmaster
Lowry. set out for Good Hope Mills.
After hiking about two miles We
arrived at the rifle range at oyster
Point and as they were shooting at
a 500-yard range and even then the
bullets seemed to have no inclina-
ton to stop, we detoured on side
road and after hiking another mile
arrived within 100 yards of our
starting point at Enola. We then
branched off and after hiking about
seven miles arrived at Good Hope
Mills. Here we took a swim. On
our way home we stopped at
country store where we intended to
have something to eat, but the store
keeper said he had nothing but
pretzels and candy so we didn't eat
much. We arrived home tired and
hungry, having been on the road all
that time with nothing to eat but
five cents worth of candy, two pret-
zels and stick of chewing gum
apiece.
