CAMP NESHOBE.

Mrs E G Osgood has selected very
beautiful site for the camp she has
organized for its first season. Ne
shobe is on hill overlooking Fairlee
Lake. Camps Billings and Quinibeck
are in full view, as well as all the
bends and turns of this mountain
lake. 1t is a wide view of noun
tains and valley and lake, which this
camp enjoys. The camp is we'll fill
ed for first season and has a full
set of councillors and teachers. The
camp colors are gray and scarlet,
carried out by painting the build
ings, gray with boxes of scarlet
geraniums about for color. An Arts
and Crafts building is being finished
on the shore of the Lake. High on
the hill, stands the Community Cen
ter building, large assembly room,
enclosed, with a huge fireplace and
a stage, is at one end. The other
half of the building is open and
rustic tables and gray chairs make
it a dining room. The kitchen, modern
in all its equipment, opens from the
dining-room. About the main build
ing, back on the hill, are the sleep
ing quarters, "Nests" taking care of
from three to six girls with a coun-
cilor. The whole setting is artistic
and rustic. White birch, with the
bark on is used for grille work in
the main building, while piazza rail
ings, table legs and benches are also
cut from the woods. There is ample
room for the girls to bathe or romp
here within the confines of the camp.
Mrs Osgood has had wide experience
in camp life and she is fitted by
temperament to make camp-life at
tractive and beneficial to the girls
who are so fortunate as to come
under her care at Neshobe.

The French Canadian and His
Dialect.

Plans were made to hold the meet
ing OF the Unitarian Woman's Alliance
with Mrs. j. w. Blaisdell last Thurs
day afternoon with the women of the
North church as guests, but news was
received of the critical illness of Mr..
Blaisdell's brother, Walter F. Blaisdell of
New York. Mrs. Stephen S. L. Shute
kindly offered her home and acted as
hostess for Mrs Blaisdell. 1t was neces-
sary to defer the plea ure of entertaining
the North Church women until a later
date. The afternoon was one of genuine
enjoyment with A. L. T. Cummings of
the University of Maine as speaker. Many
OF the members had the pleasure of meet
ing him and realized that rare treat was
in store for them in his address on The
French Canadian and His Dialect. Mr..
Cummings was a former newspaper maa
at one time an instructor of the Depart
ment of Journalism at the U. of NJ, and
at present the Agricultural Editor. Ver-
satlle, resourceful and with we'll modu-
lated voice and pleasing manner every
sentence had message. From early
youth he had been associated with the
French Canadians as he began to enjoy
repeating their musical dialect caught
from his schoolmates in Saco. Later his
summer home was in Buxton not far
from that of Kate Douglas Wiggin, and
it was at one of her famous barn" enter.
tainments that this noted woman of Maine
tually forced him at minutes notice
to splice out her program. Mr. Cummings
in self defence resorted to his fund of
French Canadian stories and anecdotes.
1t was only the first of a long series of
calls to assist and he took up the study of
William Henry Drummond. the poet of
the st. Lawrence. Later with Mrs. Cum
mings he took an extended trip into the
territory Drummond had made famous.
Those opportunities combined with his
own qualifications has made him an un-
usually entertaining speaker His selec-
lions were bright, varied ard racy, all
committed. They brought out the French
Canadians simplicity of life and sunny
ways. His own compositions were excel
lent also and full of fun. He had put into
the speech of Canadian servants many
incidents, one of the inner life of club
woman and another of the cooking of
rice by would be Maine hunter were
very bright. His story of Drummond's
life also brought out new thoughts to
many of his au1ience. 1t is hoped that
he may be heard in Belfast again and be-
fore larger audience.
