CAMP AND
 RARRECUES MADE IN U. S.

"Oh, this is great country, you fel- lows don't half appreciate the land you live in,' writes Dan Beard in Boys Life, the official magazine of the boy scouts of America. When Eric the Red was fighting the Skrae- glings, the said Skraeglings had pal isaded council grounds with fire in the middle, and among the Indians gathered to discuss tribal affairs. La ter on, after we had civilized the Cherokee Indians, if we may use that term, the Cherokees used the council fire for barbecues, and this started a fashion in Kentucky, which to this day is followed by the politicians who give barbecues where whole beefs and sheep are roasted. Then, over in Tennessee Bn McGee and his brother, John Me Gee. in 17s9 used the council fires for camp meetings. Now don't get Bill Nc gee mixed up with Sam McGee.
