Going, Fast tcadets in attendance. i TH | AFTER A SUCCESSFUL CAMP ON {A GOVERNMENT ISLAND. | 4 E CRL GUIDES RETURN Mrs. J. F. Macdonald and Miss Mc- Cormick Were in Charge--The | Results of the Field Sports, The Girl Guides of the Kingston | [' Collegiate Institute, who have been camping at Beau Rivage, or Govern- ment Island No. 1, located about six- { teen miles from Kingston, arrived | home on Saturday evening on the steamer Brockville, Those who were | at the wharf when tme steamer ar- rived were convinced that the.outing had done the girls a great deal of good. It is safe to say that all the | girls put on a few pounds of flesh, The party, which numbered about twenty-five, was in charge of Miss | McCormick, O.c. of the Girl Guides, and Mrs. J. F. Macdonald, both of whom saw to it that the girls enjoyed | every minute of the time. Many of | the girls were in camp for two weeks | While others stayed just one week. i The average atendance of the camp | was twenty-four. The girls were so well pleased with the outing that next year they are figuring on a larger camp. It was very interesting to listen to the girls relate their experiences. Things were so arranged that each day a captain and three of the guides would be responsible for the meals. Two girls were detailed to stay on the shore for a certain portion of the day so as to catch the mail man when he came with the news from home. The girls slept in tents which were loaned by the government. They did all the work of cleaning up the camp and putting the tents into the satchels. Passengers, aboard the steamer Brockville, when the boat called to pick up the campers, were amazed how quickly the girls put the bag- gage aboard. Miss Dorothy Sands and Miss Mary Godwin obtained the first class test in swimming from the camp shore to the other side of the river, which would be about half a mile, Miss Mary Godwin and Miss Mil- dred Davis were awarded the prize for the tent rolling event. Miss Mildred Davis won the quoits event. Miss Annie Langwith was winner of the first fifteen stroke swimming event. Miss Irene Wood was declared the best guide for the first: week; Miss Bernice Jackson was best guide for the second week, while Miss Reta | Penwarden was selected as the best | guide for the two weeks. The girls and the ladies in charge report that the campers near by were very kind to them. Mr. Meggs, keeper of the Red Horse Lighthouse, was also very good to the Kingston girls. One of the big events was the Visit to the summer home of Mr. and Mrs. E. O, Sliter, where a corn roast was given the girl guides. On Satur. day afternoon when Mr. Sliter saia good-bye to the girls, they all gave three chers for the principal. The girls wish to thank J. M. Campbell, owner of the steamer Brockville, for carying them to and from the camp. | {| M CBITUARY The Late Mrs, George H. Gibson. On Aug. 16th there passed away one of the most respected citizens of Inverary, in the person of Mrs. George Gibson, whose late husband predeceased her eight years ago.
