 The camp will be pitched on a bluff at Sedona overlooking the Verde river, and behind the bluff is a large field where baseball and other sports will be held. The new camp cook was taken out there yesterday, and after he had given the layout the once-over, he decided there's no place like Camp C. J. P
 Two weeks of outdoor life, with fun galore, will be the schedule at the camp, with fishing, hiking, hunt ing, swimming and a big appetite for the eats. Tests will be held now and then, just to determine the prog ress made by the boys, and on the 18th of the month brown and hard ened lot of boys will disperse to Je- rome, Clarkdale and Prescott at the end of the camp.

 COUNTY ROADS
CFrom Thursdays Daily)


 A lively interest in road-building in his home county is evinced by Governor Thomas E. Campbell, who arrived from the south yesterday, ac- companied by Mrs. Campbell and their son, Allan. The governor s party made the trip up from Phoenix in six hours by automobile, occas- ionally stopping on the way to chat with friends. Today, they will go to Jerome, where Governor Camp bell will deliver the commencement address at the graduating exercises of the Jerome High school this evening. Returning to Prescott Fri day, they will be here until Sunday las the guests of the governor mother, Mrs. Daniel Campbell.
 Governor Campbell ]: taking ad- vantage of his trip to Yavapai to acquaint himself with highway con struction in this end of. the state, particularly with reference to the state highway which will pass thru Prescott. With the highway com mission and the county engineer, he will journey over some of the chief routes and will go over surveys and plans at the commission office. Among the roads which he will visit will be the Fossil creek road
 .Roads in Maricopa county and in the southern end of Yavapai are in better condition now than they have ever been before, Governor Campbell said last night All that IS required in some places is light rain to settle the dust and permit a little smooth ing over. Coming over the Black Canyon route from Phoenix requires frequent turning out, as the survey so closely follows the old road: Gov ernor Campbell is not only an en- thusiast for modern good roads, but knows what road construction means in detail. His tour over Yavapai's s highways now building and over cer- tain projects Is ill line with his policy of keeping himself thoroughly in formed
 "When I have to sign warrants and vouchers he said, q like to know what I'm about. People will come to me and declare that such and such a piece of road work IS too expensive or is being done in the wrong way. A knowledge of the details enables me to explain that such cost is not high Of course rock work costs; but there arc many kinds of rock. Most of the talk of high cost in road-work arises from lack of comprehension of the work involved"
