JUNE SESSION
AT ETNA CAMP

The June meeting at Etna this
year is to be held on Saturday and
Sunday, the Goth and eth.
For many years the June meeting
was scarcely more than a picnic in
connection with the meeting of the
board of directors, but in recent wears
it has come to be one of the most en-
joyable institutions of this historic
camp ground. The large. crowds of
the fall meeting are not in evidence.
yet there is generally a comfortabl
gathering of about a thousand peo-
pie. and the social side of the camp
is even pleasanter than in the fall.
Winfield S. Waldron of Hallowell
will be the speaker Saturday fore
noon and Saturday afternoon: Mary
Packard Smith of Newburg, Satur-
day evening, and Converse Nicker-
son, the distinguished California me-
dunn, Sunday forenoon and Sunday
afternoon. Each of the above speak
ers will conduct a message service
following their lectures. The hours
of the meetings are 1890, 2.30 and
1.30. the session closing with a social
meeting Sunday evening.
The. hotel will be open for guests.
and trains will stop at the camp
ground during the session. The au-
ditorium has been thoroughly re-
paired. and the grounds are more
beautiful than ever.

First Ascent Of katahdin

Howard Wood, chief game warden
for the Northern Penobscot and
Southern 'Aroostook Districts, whose
headquarters are in the Petten re-
gion. returned late Tuesday evening
from a trip to Mt. Katahdin. Official
duties took him and one of his depu-
ties to a point but a short distance
from Chimney pond, on the east side
of katahdin-on the Appalachian
trail-and they decided. instead of
returning by the same route. to go
up over the mountain and return to
their homes via the western side
thereof-over the Hunt traii-and the
west branch of the Penobscot.
Mr.. Wood reports that in the woods
below and around Chimney pond.
which is 5000 feet above sea level. in
some places the ground was bare,
while in others they found from one
to three feet of snow. In the slide at
the south basin from which they
made the ascent of the mountain
they found, above the tree line form
10 to IL feet of snow. The snow was
hard enough so that they could walk
on it without hardly making an i'm
preston.
A party of fishermen from York
county were found enjoying fine trout
fishing at katahdin lake. Other par
ties in that vicinity had traps out for
bears.
On the way out all the camps on
the westerly and southerly sides Of
the mountain were visited. At Kid
ney pond, II nonresident sportsmen
and II guides had just arrived-all
members of the same party.
So far as the department has been
able to learn. Mr.. Wood and his com
panion were the first persons to go
PUP on the mountain this spring. The
rext day after the wardens came
down over the Hunt trail, a party of
four Massa chusetts sportsmen with
local guides made the ascent over
this trail.
Mr.. Wood informs the department
that Prof W. F. Dawson of Lynn,
Mass. and several other members of
the Appalachian Club, including sew
eral ladies. were TO start on June II
for Mt katahdin. Professor Daw-
son will be remembered as an APP
palachian Club member who gave the
interesting illustrated lecture on Mt.
katahdin at the annual meeting of
the Maine Sportsmen'S Fish and
Game Association last winter at the
State House. 1t is further, under
stood that this particular trip is be-
ing made by Prof. Dawson at this
season of the year for the purpose of
securing photographs of the Great
Basin. Mt katahdin. during the long
est days of the season so as to OBJ
tain all the light possible, as the
basis is not fully Illuminated except
during this time of year.
