Young Braves Being Made at Camp Kanesatake. The members of the tribes, chiefs and all connected with Camp Kanesa- take are enjoying to the limit the ad- vantages of out-door life under the best of conditions and leadership. From reveille to taps the day is full of fun and man-making sport. Hikes, campfires, instruction in camp craft and woodcraft all go to make up a happy day and restful night of sleep. The boys have been having two classes each morning at Camp Kane- satake. These classes are in wood- craft and campcraft and are entirely optional. The class in woodcraft is taught by director S. S. Aplin. At this class the boys are taught the right use of the hatchet, axe and knife, the making of camp fires and also the lighting of fire by use of flint and steel. They are now working on the notching and cutting of logs for the building of a log cabin. The boys in the camperaft class are taught the essentials of camp site and the equip- ment for personal camp use. At pres- ent they are working at clay fireplac- es. They are building an incinerator, stove and a Dutch oven. These are made of clay and stone and small nail kegs are used as forms. The boys are going to bake beans and have an out- door supper this week. There are thirty boys in this class, all taking a great interest. The camp is run on a merit system, whereby points are awarded for satis- factory service and good camp con- duct. Personal points are awarded to- ward the camp letter which is given at the close of camp to those who re- ceived the required number of merits, also the wigwam having the largest number of points is awarded the camp tribal trophy. Inspection is one of the interesting features of the camp, both for the camper and the inspectors. Each day brings forth to light the fact that the conditions surrounding the camp are very much improved in comparison with those existing before camp. All the warriors and tribes are striving hard to retain the high standing that is set before them. The Chippewas seem to have the upper hand in in- spection so far. The standing of the tribes for inspection is as follows: Chippewas - - - 1024 Bald Eagles - - -. 919 Shawnees - - - 91.9 Senacas - - - 91.3 Iroquois - - - 90.8 Aztecs - - - - 854 The tribes of the camp have been on the war path in athletics as well as in the rest of camp activities. Scalps have been taken in baseball, volley ball and tennis. The Bald Eagles and Aztecs are tied as to the number of scalps taken, with the Shawnees a close second. The braves are taught to play the game on the Athletic field as well as the great game of life. Lest we forget the great Camper- Chief’s baseball game on Thursday afternoon, after the tribal games, the braves gathered together on the base- ball diamond for the purpose of taking the scalps of the chiefs. Of course, the chiefs, aided by the great chief, ran away with the whole totem pole. The personnel of the camp is as fol- lows: Camp Director—S. 8S. Aplin, Y.M.C A. Camp Counselors—John D. Ellis, Hunt- ingdon; Edgar C. Kline, Alexandria; John W. Swigart, Huntingdon. Directors Aides—Charles W. Patterson, Williamsburg; Byron V. Freeman, Tyrone. Camp Cook—E. E. Beals.

Hewitt, pastor of the Reformed church of Wil- liamsburg, gave the boys a talk at hillside service, which is conducted on the hillside facing the west, and has been the daily inspirational service since the opening of Camp Kanesa- take. Each of the three counselors have charge of two tribes. They are students of the Sunday school train- ing camp and render counsel and as- sistance to the chiefs of the tribes, who are appointed by the braves from their own group. Leadership train- ing is one of the educational features of the camp. Sunday, August 24th, there will be a great gathering of the Tri-County Sunday school workers. State speakers will address the guests and special music will be rendered. Thursday and Sunday are visitors days and many avail themselves of the opportunity to visit the boys and see the fine arrangement of the site and buildings. Many improvements are to be added each year. The camp will close Tuesday, August 26th, when the boys will reluctantly leave their wigwams for the paleface country.

An informal mid-summer “round- ap” of alumni and former students of The Pennsylvania State College be- gins today at State College. This will be the first time that a gathering of this kind has been ar- ranged at the college. For many years alumni in various parts of the State have held picnic outings at parks in their districts, while June commence- ment periods and the home-coming day in the fall have marked alumni reunions on the campus. Alumni offi- cers have called the meeting for the purpose of talking over alumni asso- ciation affairs and projects of general interest to the college. The meetings start today, August 22 and the “round-up” will last until Sunday. A general invitation has been extended to all alumni who find it convenient to get to the college for the week-end. rm E———— A ——————. ——Read the “Watchman.” .
