sighted in judging, for her team won
first Those on the team were Mar
tin Tnorsen, Elmer Thorsen and /, all
of Nezperce, Idaho The Lapwai team
won second and Idaho county team
won third.
/ had the privilege of being North
Idaho junior champion judge. My
score was 278 out of possible 300
points. Charles Calkins, of Lapwai,
run a close second with score of272.
Judging over, the boys went to inc
roundup and they seemed to have en-
joyed it very much for all one could
hear around camp was about the
roundup. I was in charge of the club
barns and did not get to go over that
day. However, I managed to get off
one afternoon and I certainly enjoyed
the time spent there.
Again we found our bonfire and en-
tertainment (fact is, we had it every
night during our stay) and spent a
few hours celebrating until Mr.. Stone
drove us to bed with club (yell),
which we ali joined, making the very
earth tremble.
The people on the grounds would
assemble around our bonfire and seem
ed to enjoy our fun as much as we
did, for every evening they would
hang around until we 'sit up.
There was another man by the name
of Stone that came to our evening en-
joyment besides our Mr.. Stone, so to
be able to distinguish one from the
other in speaking, we nicknamed our
Mr.. Stone q Pebble,'' for he was short
and small, reminding us of pebble.
While the other Mr.. Stone we called
Rock or Boulder for he was
large and tall, reminding us of a huge
rock or boulder And / think these
fated "Stones still carry their nick
names among the club folk.
Every day at noon we had the
pleasure of having some very promin
ent person as our guest and | feel
safe in saying that we were all very
glad to open our camp to these good
people. And next year we extend as
we'll as others an invitation to dine I
with us at their leisure for that is the
aim of our camp,
We all clambored on board big i
truck and went thru Lewiston, and out i
in the Orchard, one afternoon TO see
the large lettuce tracts that Lewiston
s noted for.
The next morning we again loaded
INTO the truck and went to the top of
he Uniontown grade, from this point
We counld see for many miles over the
lewiston and Charleston country.
Saturday morning after breakfast
Ve elected our next years officers es
he club camp. Each officer was re
lected to serve another year, The
Meeting was adjourned and prepara
ion began to get our things together
or the journey homeward And when
be train stopped at the fair grounds
&c all shook hands and boarded the
rain with a sigh of regret that our
Tub camp enjoyments must be posi-
oned until 1923.
However sad it was we knew that a
lrge percent would be back next year
nd we look forward to this union
18th great hope.
I for one win be there when our
D23 camp is reopened for I feel tn
le club training which received is
riceless and urge every energetic and
mbitious boy and girl to join the
oys' and Girls Club and see for
the value gained.
Just a word of encouragement 70
1yone that may need it.
The Lewis County Club boys for
lere are no girls in club work. have
,mpleted their years work and we
ave not had any county agent or To-
il leader to help us. There are great
romises for another year; for the peo-
e have seen that we can go ahead
ithout their support and gain what
'emed impossible and they are now
Hing to back us in our undertaking
n another year. Our judging team
on first at Lewiston and all the
aiming that we had was the two
mes Mr.. Stone helped US. YOU
IN do the same thing and win Yours
