 One of the most interesting studies at Camp Alanita is the arts and crafts class led by Miss Myrtle PuJol of Newcomb college, New Orleans Courses in weaving, basketry and practical decorating are taught by Miss Pntol. who plans for each camper to design and make some useful articles during the season.
 Last Saturday evening the weekly pow-wow was held and the campers gathered at sunset rock and formed an unbroken circle around the fire. When Miss Parks gave the signal the fire was lighted and stories of TO- nance and Indian lore were told by Mrs. A. E. Bond which made vivid many historic facts of the Cherokee tribe in their association with this spot four centuries ago.
