    TROOP 7 HOME
FROM 8-DAY CAMP
Return From Annual Outing
Near Loysville; 34 Scouts
Were on the Trip
The eight days spent In the an
nual camp of Troop 7 have gone,
but the memories and recollections
of Its pleasant times will linger In
the minds of the thirty-four scouts
who were privileged to enjoy It. The
troop arrived home on Saturday
evening from Camp Harris, about
two miles west of Loysville, in good
spirits.
The natural surroundings added
much this year to the camp, with
the beautiful country, with its many
hills and scenery, on the trip to and
from the camp. For the past few
years it has been the pleasure of
Thomas Bogar to transport the
scouts to and from camp, and in his
travels he always has some camp
site In view for the coming year. He
remembers that he was a boy who
always liked to go to a new section
of country, so for this reason every
?cout of Troop 7 has a warm heart
for Mr. Bogar.
The camp this year was ideal for
many reasons, the country and its
surroundings, and the manner in
which the boys were received and
treated by the people of the locality.
The "eats" of the camp were well
prepared by Mr. Evans, and prepara
tions and economy were his main
points.
Play Baseball
Two games of baseball were
played with the big boys of the sur
rounding towns on Wednesday and
Thursday evenings, with many root- j
?rs to encourage the players.
The Rev. Mr. Taxis, pastor of the
Harris Streett Vnited Evangelical
Church, spent several days in camp.
Mr. Schaum. former assistant scout
master, was welcomed by the scouts.
Visitors' day on Thursday was a
lively day for the scouts. The big
distance did not keep them away.
About eight automobiles came from
Harrisburg. loadeid to their full ca
pacity. About forty-five extra meals
were served to the visitors, who
showed their appreciation by bring
ing watermelons, ice cream. lolly->
pops and cakes. Even the campfires
contained visitors, who wanted to
know how the scouts spent their
'eisure time.
Thursday morning almost the en
tire troop visited the Tressler Or
phans' Home. They found many in
teresting things about the well
managed institution.
The scouts returned by narrow
gauge railroad to Fort Robison,
which was an Indian fort years ago.
Friday many tests were given by
the scoutmaster and his assistant.
Trailing and scout pace were the
most interesting.
Six second class scouts took a
fourteen-mile hike to prepare for
first class. The great variety of the
tilants and natural scenery" made the
crip full of interest.
All scouts are requested to be on
hand to-night at 7 o'clock. Thrift
Stamp honors and other Important
business.
George Reinoehl, Scribe.
City and County Quota
Is Now on Way to Camp
The eighty-four men who left the
city last night for service in the Na
tional Army are scheduled to reach
Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg. S. C..
by to-night, when they will enter the
military service of the United States.
The departure of last night's quota
was the quietest since the outbreak
of the war. However, the men did
not miss the noise and celebration
that usually accompanies the depar
ture of a quota, for hundreds of rela
tives and friends were at the station
to bid them farewell.

FRIDAY EVENING, '
RED CROSS WORK
IN FRANCE WIDE
WAY TOAID WAR
Special Attention Given Chil
dren With View of Decreas
ing Infant Mortality
The American Red Cross through
the varied activities of Its Civil Af
fairs Department in France last
month reached 412,566 civilians, ac
cording to a cabled report Just ro
ceived from Harvey D. Gibson. Ameri
can Red Cross Commissioner to
France. Seventeen delegates gave
special relief in eleven departments
of France in the war zone, and nine
ty-two delegates and associates ren
dered service to refugees in seventy
departments throughout the country.
The work on the medical aide has
been specially prominent in June.
Seventeen civilian hospitals, includ
ing- a new hospital for mutilated
soldiers, were opened during the
month with a total capacity of 1,699
beds. Sixty-one dispenseries were es
tablished where 45.028 children, tu
bercular or refugee were cared for.
Medical direction was also supplied
three institutions where 1,500 chil
dren have b?en assembled from
war zone, and 4,287 articles of hospi
tal equipment and supply were dis
tributed.
Special attention Is being given to
the children of France, particularly
with a view to decreasing infant
mortality. As part of this work a
campaign for the education of moth
ers in the care of Infants has been
inaugurated and many child welfare
exhibits have been held. A baby
saving exhibit at Marseilles, last
month, was attended by 32.231. Red
Crosa medical authorities also demand
It advisable to supply additional
nourishment to the school children
of Paris and last month 32,000 school
children received supplementary food
from the Amerlca|t Red Cross at
school lunches.
The Emergency Refugee Relief
Committee aided 45,000 refugees pass

War Department Permits Detailed
Description of Army's Pastry
and Wardrobe
German agents have industriously
circulated stories about the feeding
and clothing of America's great new
army. Such stories are intended to
sap our morale. It has been difficult
for patriotic Americans to combat
them, because heretofore the real
facts have never been given to the
public. The War Department has
been too busy working to spend
much time on explanations.
Now. for the first time, the whole
story is ready to be told. The coun
try will learn Just how much truth
there was to last winter's skulking
rumors.
Supplied with all the facts by the
Wax Department, William Atherton
du Puy is writing an article that will
tell all about the feeding and cloth
ing of our troops. It is a story that
every American with friend or rela
tive in khaki will want to read. No
phase of our tremendous war prepa
rations is more amazing than this
account of the work of the quarter
master corps. It will appear exclu
sively in the Philadelphia Public
Ledger next Sunday. The only way
|to be sure of obtaining your copy
is to reserve it in advance from M.<
