: WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1920 ------ Boy Scout and Camp Fire Girls' Camps Well Equipped; Camp Benefit April 6 | This summer is the eleventh year for camps at Hamlin Lake. This lake has about twenty five miles of shore line, inland from Lake Michi- gan about, two miles and distant from Ludington eleven miles. The camping site is one of the best in thirty. Boys and girls are expected to register during the month of May and one half of the camp fee must be paid at that time. The expenses incidental to going to and returning from camp will be paid for by the individual camper. This amounts to this part of the country, the drain- age and water being unsurpassed. Rev. J. W. Davies has owned his land and built buildings himself and has made possible the camp with- out any rental charges whatever. He built a fine new dining hall and kit- chen 48 ft. long and 16 ft. wide last summer and this year proposes to build two cabins.

"Wish I Had" was always seeing things that he wanted, but never had the money to get them, because he had never done anything about a bank account, but "wish he had" it. "I'm Going To" was his sister. She, too, saw many things she wanted, and it was her real intention to have them "sometime," but always failed tc get them, because when the matter of starting a bank account was men- tioned, she always said, "I'm a going to," and let it go at that. MORAL--A bank account, while not a cure all, can heal a lot of financial | "aches" and "pains," and give a fellow " that pleasant "easy" and "comfort- able" feeling.
