C. N. Stevens of the City Nationaf bank, treasurer of the camp, reports that contributions are being steadily made and that it Is thought there will be plenty of money to operate the camp for eight weeks. The largest donation made so far is that of $100 sent by the insurance firm of Critchell, Miller, Whitney & Barbour of Chicago. The gas, electric light and tele- phone companies have consented to give their services and install their apparatus without charge, as they have done in years past. The Illinois and Johnson Express companies have also offered to carry commodities from Chicago to the camp free of charge. Several people have loaned tents, while others have given dishes to be used. Need Many Things. The directors have found that baby carriages, lawn furniture, swings, hammocks and refrigerators are also needed and ask that any person hav- ing any of these articles notify Chapin & Nelson, who will call for and store the articles until the camp is open. It makes no difference how old or out of repair these things may be, they will be gratefully received. The plumbing facilities at the camp are to be the best, due to the dona- tions made by the L. Wolff Manufac- turing company, James B. Clow & Sons and the Federal Ruber company, all of Chicago. George S. Moore of this city has offered to install all of the fittings without profit. There are still many people in Evanston who can do great good by giving either money or needy arti- cles to this worthy charity. In al- most every home in this city there are articles or furniture that are not being used that will come in very handy at the camp. The Bvanston churches are doing a great deal for the camp, and when it is opened it is thought it will be In the best condition it has ever en- joyed. The following Bvanston churches are represented on the directorate: First Baptist, Howard G. Grey; St. Mark's, W. S. Powers; First Con- gregational, William D. Allen; St. Luke's, C. Clarence Poole; St. Mat- thew's, H. Dyle Bent; First Metho- dist, W. H. Dunham; Hemenway Methodist, Frank Milhening; Em- manuel Methodist, George W. Eddy; Wheadon Methodist, Dr. W. A.

V'| There ate 150 persons living 1% the north end of Evanston who partook of one Thursday and when they irose from the table, one and all agreed that the twelve local men who cooked « are "some" cooks. St. Matthew's Episcopal church has a parish house, erected a year agp, on which there remains a small debt and the parishioners determined recently to wipe it out. Ordinary entertain* menta were discussed, but finally the unique idea of having the men cook a dinner and sell it was suggested. Eleven Donnsd Aprons. Thursday It was done.' Headed by Dr. A. V. Coffman, eleven other men hardest-fought match that has 4>een -. also donned big aprons and each In his own home cooked a big pot of New England boiled dinner. Then each went to the parish house With a big kettle full of meat and vegetables, and it aH was placed In one enormous kettle, brought to a boll, and served. You know what a New England boiled dinner isâ€"beef, potatoes, turnips, carrots, onions and dumplings, swimming in the steaming essence of the meat. Chaffee Head Walter. T. W. Chaffee was head waiter. William N. Buchanan was carver and J. D. Kline handled the ladle. Work- ing side by side with them were J. N. Eisenlord, W. M. Gale, R. C. Butow, H. D. Bent, A. P. Carroll. G. B. Bal- luff, G. F. Valentine and H. A. Apps. They cleared $128. The women de- clared the dinner excellent, and the twelve men who did and dared are in a quandary, uncertain whether they have established their independence or laid themselves liable to a lot of impromptu cooking. PATTEN TO SEE LAND OF THE MIDNIGHT SUN Starting on a trip that has been his ambition since he was a young man, James A. Patten, "wizard of the wheat pit," accompanied by his son "Jack" and President A. W. Harris of North- western university, will sail from New York June 20 to visit the land of the midnight sun. They will go direct to Liverpool aboard a Cunard liner and then take a steamship to the Shetland Islands.

There they will spend considerable time, traveling by train, carriage and ponyback over river and mountain, across glacier and meadow, visUing every place made famous in story'and song. North Cape and Spitsbergen will come in for considerable .attention next, with a trip by boat along the picturesque fiords of Norway, after which they will go across country di- rect to Christiania, Sweden. A comprehensive tour of this coun- try will complete the sightseeing part of the trip, their schedule calling for a return to Evanston about Septem- ber. - President Harris will take a cam- era as usual, on all of his vacation trips, so that a pictured record of the entire journey will be developed after their return.
