There would be something seriously

displayed no tendency for horseplay.
But at Camp Roosevelt they are kept
too busy to go very far in this direc.
ton. There never has been q case of

OF the camp Is wholesome, and a. high
standard of Scout honor Is maintained.

tors in camp is Fred G. Stuart, Wash
ington business man, who for several
years past has devoted his Summers
to this work. He is officially the "fun-
maker and handicraft instructor" but
to the boys he is far more than that.
He is the one to whom they turn
when anything is troubling them.
Something is broke and "Stu" mends
it. Somebody has lost his fishline and
"Stu" manages to find new one. A
boy is homesick and the man Of many
proficiences soon makes him forget all
about his troubles. He knows all the
lore OF woodcraft. He can make al
most anything without tools. He gets
as much pleasure out of this life in
the open as any Of the boys.
A factor in the success of the camp
Is the enthusiasm and constant watch
fulness of Mr.. Drake, the director,
who makes his home nearby and con-
stders each boy as an individual prob.

is secret fraternity, but actually the
rites are witnessed by all. The cere-
mony around the camp fire is based
on Indian legendry and is quite i'm.
pressive. The fraternity was started
at Camp Roosevelt three years ago
and is being introduced into other
Boy Scout camps throughout the
United States. A degree team OF
Washington boys has been organized
to introduce the degree work.
One Of the interesting events of the
week is the award of sunburn prizes.
DR.. w. II. Merrill, q Washington
physician and member of the camp
committee, Is an enthusiast on the
therapeutic value Of sun rays on the
bare flesh. To DR.. Merrill one Of the
chief benefits the boy receives from

A good part of each days activity

where the boys can disport as much
