BOY SCOUTS CAMP, Culver, Ind,
July 26.-The boys marked time
Tuesday waiting for the command

pect to receive shortly after 1880

Plymouth, which is u miles away,

Of time to make camp, enjoy a good
supper, and get TO bed early enough
10 get a good nights rest in prepa-
ration for the second day Of the
hike.
Scout Executive 10 Taylor has
things so arranged that not a boy
who prefers 10 ride Will be COMPEL
ed to walk. II Is believed. however.
that the majority Of the 500 who
made the hike 10 Culver are in favor
OF returning in the same manner.
Excessive heat and dusty roads
make hiking a hardship on some Of
the smaller lads and Mr. Taylor does
not believe in taking any chances OF
sickness or injuries through a too
strenuous program.
Anxious for Home.
Regular camp routine and recrea-
ton such as swimming and baseball
were the main features Of Tuesday S
doings. The boys were visably res
tive and anxious to get back home.
They feel that the war "a over. "
That is 10 say. the glamor OF new
scenes and new experiences have
worn off. and they are anxious TO get
back home and go 70 the movies. eat
ice cream cones and tell their girls
all about the hike.
Col L. r. Gignilliat visited the
camp fire council ring Tuesday and
spoke briefly TO the scouts. He ex-
pressed his appreciation Of the man
ner in which the boys had conduct
ed themselves on the reservation and
wished them a safe and pleasant
journey on their return trip.
