CAMP FIRE GIRLS
ENJOY A WEEKS OUTING

On Tuesday the twentyfirst
bunch of happy girls, members Of
the Campfires left for a week of
camping on the banks of the beauti-
ful Waterford lakes. Mrs. Christian
and Miss Nellie DunI p, the able
chaperones, saw that no one was lost
in the mob at the station and put all
the girls, chickens, cabbages, ukeleles,
etc., on the train. Upon arriving at
Waterford they were met by Mes
srs. Christian, j. B. Roach and
Branham Hume, who had motored
through and had begun to get camp
in readiness. The mile and a half
from town to the lakes was covered
quickly by the eager girls and soon,
In spite OF the oppressive heat, the
campers had ali gone to work max
ing beds, unpacking and "draping"
the mosquito bars. The first meal
had already been prepared before
leaving home, so just before dark
huge quantities of sandwiches were
consumed. The daily schedule made
out for the next six days follows:
6:O0-First vising call.
6:00-6: 6:30-Swim.
6:30-7:00-Dressing and Exercise.
7:00-Breakfast. -
S:00-Morning Prayer
8:OO-9:00-Cleaning up camp.
9:00-9:30-Instructions.
9:3012-Recreation.
12-1-Dinner.
1-2-Rest hour.
-4:30-Recreation.
4:30-6-Afternoon swim.
6-7-Supper
7-9:30-Evening dance or boating.
9:30-9:45-Evening prayers.
9:45-10-Undressing.
10:00-"Lights out"
10:15-Absolute Quiet.
Thursday was visitors day, when
the presence of eight or ten Oxford
friends added greatly to the girls
enjoyment. Everyone was sorry that
MIR. Christian was compelled to be
away on that day.
The weather was clear and fine
during the whole week, with the ex-
ception of Sunday, when high wind
and thunderstorm. threw the camp
into chaos. The tent r.Sps were
quickly put down, the cots folded and
the bedding and clothing were placed
out from under the leaks in the tents,
so that everything was kept dry.
Fortunately there was a shelter over
the kitchen and fried chicken and
other goodies were forthcoming at
dinner time.
On Monday it wasn't necessary to
take down the tents, for the Scouts
were to take possession upon the de-
parture of the Camp Fire Girls. On
Monday at eleven crew healthier
happier and 6Towner than had left
