! Forty-eight summer camps are nov
operated by the Girl Scouts.
The Briarcliff camp, comprising abou
lao acres of hills, woodland and cleared
spaces, was the gift Of former United
States Senator and Mrs. William A
Clark Of Montana. who made the pre-
sentation in memory of their daughter
Andree. 1t is really training place for
future scout captains and is a model
Of its kind.
The camp accommodates ll2 girls at a
time, or approximately 800 each season.
The girls. who are divided into units of
eight, with councillor for each unit. are
drawn from all over the United States,
whereas the scouts attending the other
camps are members of their own coun-
cils. At Camp Andrce Clark the girls
Of each unit are responsible to their coun-
cillor, who in turn is responsible to the
camp director.
The camp is not harrassed by a fixed
daily program. The units, or troops, de-
eide on their own daily work and play,
and may even select their three meals,
provided they are drawn from menus
submitted by the camp dietetian. The
food is prepared on open 6replaces, one
of which is assigned to each unit, and
il the campers desire a lean-to. to pro- !
ect them in rainy weather. they must
provide it. Independence and resource

NEW USES FOR POISON GAS

Poison gas, which was utilized to such
deadly advantage during the war, has
now been put to good use during peace
times. Chemists have found that the
deadly poison may be used in various
ways which are Of benefit to the country.
One of the most important uses for the
gas is the purifying Of water in large
cities. A small quantity Of chlorine de.
posted in the wafer makes il pure. II
is said that in one city, where this cham.
icsl is used for purifying the water sup
ply, the death rate from typhoid fever
has been reduced 20 per cent from 1918
to 1917.

while he was careful not to tear his
clothes, he jumped lightly over the
wall and went to the poultry-house.
He soon had two plump birds In his
basket and over the wall he sprang
and started for home, but he had gone
only little way when he heard bark
behind him and, looking around he
saw Mr. Dog in full run coming after
him.
Right in front of Mr.. Fox was a
high rail fence, and for this he ran,
feeling sure that he could easily es.
cape MIR. Dog by leaping over 1t and
running home through the woods be-
fore Mr. Dog could crawl under
But, oh, how little be reckoned on

he reached the fence and made the
leap and but for rail that stuck up
where they were crossed to hold the
fence he might have escaped.
Yes, Mr.. Fox leaped, but he did not
go over. Instead, he caught by the
seat Of those new trousers and hung
there above the head of Mr.. Dog, who
by this time had reached the scene
and was barking loudly.
OF course, Mr.. Fox dropped the has,
ket and the birds were crying loudly
as they ran for home, and every Sec
ond Mr.. Fox felt sure the farmer
would appear with gun and he would
never see his home and family ageln.
He jerked and he wiggled and at
last the cloth gave way and, luckily,
he fell on top of Mr.. Dog and knocked
him over, and while he was scram.
bling to his feet Mr.. Fox lost no time,
you may be sure, In running home.
When Mrs. Fox saw him with the
torn trousers and no basket she was
very angry, but she did not say q
word. She just took those new
trousers, put a big patch of red flannel
on the torn part, and when her hus
band saw that he put on his old ones

DO OUR EYES "sPARKLE" WHEN
WE ARE HAPPY?

T HE term Sparkling" as general
ly employed is equivalent TO
bright" or "glistening" and the
latter synonym provides the key 10
the question as to why peoples eyes
sparkle when they are merry.
There is some nervous reaction be-
tween the feeling of merriment or joy
which makes ones eyelids move no
and down more rapidly than usual
This movement of the eyeld causes Il
tiny drop of tear-liquid to spread over
the ball Of the eye precisely what oc-
ours every time we wink, thus wash
ing the eyeball clean and leaving upon
1t film of moisture which naturally
glistens or sparkles In the light. The
statement that a PERSONS eyes
sparkle" is, therefore, not strictly true
1t Is not the eye, but the coatirS Of
liquid over 1t. which causes the ~e-
Election of light and produces the ;tn-
preston of brightness.

IN MEMORIAM.

j In sad but loving remembrance OF
our dear father and husband, Charles
H. Ellis, who entered into rest, April
ID, 1921.
From world of sorrow and pain,
To land of peace and rest,
God has taken your dear father,
Where you have eternal rest.
Sad was the hour and fatal the day
When one year ago he was taken
away,
We saw him suffer and heard his
signs,
With aching hearts and weeping eyes
Our family circle is broken now,
A voice we loved is still,
A place is vacant in our hearts,
This world can never fill.
Shall we meet you, dear father,
In your home beyond the skies,
Where the love lights beaming,
On your loving, tender brow,
Sleep on, we shall meet you.
