Chief Tells Experiences Monday‘s campfire started out with songs and cheers as usual, although the Ottawa and Menominee campers disappointed everyone by not having their camp songs prepared, but the Shawnees were there with the goods. We hope to hear an.Ottawa and a Menominee song at an early campfire.

The Ottowas are making it pretty hot for the stakes on their new "horseshoe road" on the south side ofâ€"camp. They picked out a nice smooth spot there, chopped a few snags out, drove in the stakes, and put sand around them. Spacing these stakes about forty feet upart eliminated one of our younger pitchers, who were pretty accurate on close stakes, but didâ€" not have strengthâ€" enough to throw that far. Scientific pitching requires aim and wiuscular coâ€"ordination as well as preâ€" cise judgment of the trajectory which the flying horseshoe describes. The Ottowas are getting so they can make the shoes "stay put" and not hit the stake and roll yards away. Mr. Morris, our scoutmaster, got us some iron stakes today, to replace the old chewed up wooden ones we have been using.â€"J.

The boys are all members of the Menominee village and are registered from troop 10 of Wilmette. It is expected that this porcupine will be kept firmly caged, and that he will have no opportunity to escape as the others have. The others are thought to be nearby and when the camp has better facilities for them an attempt will be made to recapture them. Anâ€" other addition to the camp zoo was made this morning when Ed Bristol Lrought in a pine snake which he carâ€" ried about with him for several hours.

The crowning event was a balloon battle between Bill Rubloff â€" and Harold Borre. Borre came through with a sudden burst and nosed out Bill by one ballon length. Other events inâ€" cluded a fireman‘s lift relay, weayâ€" »‘s relay, a balloon breaking contest, a shoe scramble, a balloon whistle conâ€" test, and last but not least a balloon length contest which was won by Frank Appleyard who succeeded in making his lungs perform | hard enough to stretch a sausage balloon to the heretofore unheard of length of fortyâ€"eight inches.
