games, continuing about lO:3O, When
swimming is again the order, this
time with bathing suits. Boating and
individual games-games selected by
the boys themselves-are indulged in
until noon.
The rather heavy noon-day meal is
followed by light recreative games,
such as horseshoe, or jack-knife, al
though complete rest hour is en-
eouraged. Various games are played
during the afternoon, and again
half hour devoted to swimming. No
boy leaves the camp without being
able to swim, and life saving also is
taught. The evening meal is served
at $50. All the food, by the way,
is kosher. Before every meal the
boys, led by Ted Berman, assistant
camp director, pronounced the bless
ing, which many of them for the
first time learned while at the camp.
The more rugged boys engage in
boxing and wrestling during the even
ing, but their activities are largely
Of the boys own selecting. Races
take place at this time, or some of
the boys match their skill at high
and broad jumping. One of the most
pleasant hours of the days program
is story hour at 8 o'clock, when Di-
rector Roemer tells stories and reads
to the boys.
Then the boys retire to their tents
in each of which there is religious
leader" from among the boys them
selves, who reads or recites the pray
er before retiring for the night, in
voking healthy, peaceful slumber.
How much that meant to the boys
was clearly indicated one night in
August, when the tents blew down
and the boys had to bunk in the mess
hail. The chairman of the Religious
Observance committee happened to be
at the camp and was marooned there,
so he had to spend the night with the
boys. And as the youngsters were
falling asleep, one Of them sang out,
"Rabbi :, will you please say
that prayer that we should lie down
in peace and rise up in peace" Of
course the rabbi complied, and never
did he hear more sincere chorus of
"amens" than came from the lips of
the drenched, tired youngsters.
The routine above described gives
an idea, in a way, of life at the camp,
but there is vastly more to camp life
than can be revealed by a recital of
the program; it is the incidents of
camp life, the boyish pranks and
amusements Of their own invention,
that make camp life so attractive to
the youngsters. For example, there
are the "snipe hunting expeditions
when few Of the boys hold the sack
and a lantern to attract the snipe
which refuses to come, while the
boys nearby are bursting with laugh
ter. Then there are the natural story
tellers, tie comedians and the like.
Occasionally, too, there is the bonfire
with marshmallow and weiner roasts.
Before entering camp each boy
must undergo a thorough physical ex-
animation by two specialists. Their
weight is taken every day, and spec

ing boys was levied, and boys whose
parents could afford it paid larger
amounts. There was nothing of the
charity atmosphere attached to the
camp, although the fact that a boys
parents could not afford to pay did
not prevent him from enjoying camp
life to the same degree as the other
boys. In fact, if any preference was
shown, it was shown to this class of
boys, who needed the outing infinite
ly more than the others. But no one
in the camp, not even the attendants,
knew which Of the boys "paid their
way" and which did not.
And what is camp life? Partic-
ularly, what was life at this camp?

boys whether they desired to return

the performance of such arduous
tasks as pealing potatoes for the
cook, scraping carrots, carrying water
and the like. The occupants of ore
of the large army tents were as
signed to this task every day. A
typical days program would be some
what as follows:
The boys are awakened at 6:3O in
the morning by the blowing of a
whistle, and their first activity of the
day is the morning dip" There be-
ing no policeman on the beat, they
wear their Adams bathing suits.
After breakfast, served at seven,
they rest and then the games of the
day begin - volley ball, baseball,
horseshoe tossing, rowing, canoeing
and the like.

words at the camp.

7 AST spring Camp Covenant was
an experiment, an experiment, to
Il be sure, worthy of the best efforts
of the organization which fostered it,
but nevertheless an experiment. Today
Camp Covenant is permanent instl-
tuition, an achievement, and stands as
a monument to the unselfish devotion
of those who helped bring about it's
realization.
Camp Covenant is the B'nai Birth
fresh air camp for boys-for boys
who really need fresh mainly
for boys of the poorer classes-in
general for boys who normally would
not enjoy the benefits of summer
outing. .
The need for such camp had been
felt for many years; in various forms
it had been suggested many times.
But it remained for the B'nai Birth
lodge to undertake and to bring to
realization something which hereto
fore had been lost in the nebuloslty
of dreams.
Camp Covenant last summer was
situated on pleasing knoll OF land
on the west shore of North Arm, Lake
Minnetonka, overlooking beautiful
Crystal and Maxwell bays, far re-
moved from the noise, dirt and dust
of the city. With an ideal bathing
beach, grounds for athletic contests,
and surrounded by woods and fields,
it is difficult to conceive OF more
ideal location.
Picture on an ideal summer day,
with the sun streaming down on the
landscape in flood Of bright light,
a group of healthy-looking boys,
dressed in tights or trunks, their
half-naked bodies bronzed from ex-
posure to the sun, faces beaming and
ewes sparkling, disporting themselves.
Some of the boys are playing base
ball, others volley ball, some practic-
ing high jumping and broad jump
ing, some battling with the blue wat
ers in the bay, some even wrestling
and boxing. And throughout all the
performances there is noticeable dis
play of an enthusiasm of which only
youth is capable.
This was the scene-a very pleas
ant and unusual scene-which greet
ed the eyes of the writer on visit to
the camp last summer.
The youngsters ranged in ages
y
possibly one or two exceptions
thanks to "elastic" regulations for
admittance. The amount of clothing
worn by the boys, it was explained
by an attendant, was regulated only
by the law and natural elements. -.
Although there was plenty OF Joli1-
fication, shouting, laughing, even nil
arity, it was noticeable that the boys noys
conducted themselves under perfect
camp discipline; there was an absence
of the rudeness and roughness gen
orally associated with a congregation
of youngsters mainly from homes
where the bread and butter question
is so vital that little time can be de-
voted to teaching children etiquette,
or even restraint.
Impossible as it seemed to believe
these youngsters were city boys,
mainly from congested districts, where
The American Jewish world., 1921-09-30

pale, drawn faces and dull eyes are
in harmony with the surroundings.
They had been at the camp almost
their allotted two weeks, and it was
almost inconceivable that two weeks
previously many of these tanned
youths, so full of life and vigor, were
semi-sickly boys Of the type associat-
ed with congested city life. It is in
deed marvellous what two weeks of
contact with unpolluted nature can
do!
Fresh air, sunshine, play, plenty of
good, wholesome food, physical train
ing under an expert physical direc-
tor, did it's work. Mothers could
hardly recognize their sons when
they returned home.
"My, you are not my boy!" moth
er shouted when her son came home
from the camp. "You are so brown,
and big!" Her eyes were wide open
in wonderment, but gradually the Sit
uation dawned on her. Her puny,
sickly boy now showed the glow OF
life; he was real boy.
"My boy now eats so much l can
hardly feed him." another mother
commented on the changes camp life
wrought in her son. "Before he went
to camp he never had any appetite"
The camp, which contained all the
facilities for camp recreation, both
land and water, closed August 30th
after eight weeks of operation, dur
ing which about one hundred and fifty
boys were accommodated. The pop
ulation of the camp, with the excep-
tion Of the attendants, changed every
fortnight.
The idea of a fresh air camp for
boys was suggested to the Bnal
Birth lodge last winter by Joseph l.
Shanfeld, it's president. The idea ap-
peared feasible, especially as Mr..
Shanfeld explained it, and surely 1t
was a worthy enough project. 1t was
unanimously determined to bring it
about.
A committee, headed by David
Phillips, ardent friend of boys, was
Immediately formed and assigned the
task of working out the practical de-
tails. This committee included among
it's members Benjamin Dockman, DR..
Joseph Stomel, DR.. Alex Josewich,
Sig Harris, DR.. George j. Gordon,
Jacob Feinberg, Israel Kreimer, DIR.
Harry Bank, DR.. Thomas Ziskin,
Alex Kanter, M. J. Kronick, Rabbi e.
David Matt, Harry Goldfish, George
Stromberg, and VIM. Zingol.

project was solicited and $1,000 o.
tanned. This served as wonderful
beginning and gave impulse to the
venture. Nine hundred more dollars
were added to the fresh air camp
fund through presentation of "The
Frolickers." Together with six hum
dred dollars obtained by voluntary
assessment of members, there was
fund of two thousand, five hundred

No cowboy nof Klon- dyke camp this, only San Francisco at its most criminal, gangsters and gun men galore, shots in the dark, with William, our once hardriding William, as a cop.
 Nothing more nor less than a police officer who is what he is because he learned in the suffering in Belleau Wood that there is something more to life than the life of a Golden Gate gunman. Heroism in the trenches brought him back the associate of outstanding gentlemen and obviously changed in the eyes of the young gangstress who loved him.
 That lady is Ann Little, whose breeding beauty you have looked up- on ere now and thought it a fine thing for the pictures. The action shows gun-fights in the night, bullets dipping across the bar and some high class, first-rate suffering by Bill.

DOCTORS RF.ADOPT
 FORMER FEE SCALE

Deciding that the recent change in fees was done without due consid- eration or discussion of what such a change would mean, without a meeting of the majority of the phy- sicians, and against the will of sev- eral of the physicians who were not even consulted" several physicians this afternoon met and agreed to re. adopt the fee bill first adopted May l, 1920. The recent change referred to in the agreement signed by the physicians was announced July 1.
 Following is the agreement drawn up and signed by the physicians at the meeting this afternoon:
