At Camp Checaugau one of the wonderful camps owned by the Chicago Boy Scout Council near Whitehall, Mich., the first period in- cluded fifty-one Scouts from the towns in the North Shore Council. Anyone visiting Camp Checaugau between June 27 and July 9 would have thought this was a north shore scout camp in- stead of a Chicago camp, for two-thirds of the boys and several of the leaders in camp were north shore folks.

Four Scouts and two leaders from the North Shore council were taken into the fa- mous "Order-of-the-Arrow," a secret camp order to become a member of which is considered the highest camp honor attainable. Those who "made" this order from the north shore were Robert King, Troop 2, Wilmette ; Brain- erd Chapman,Troop 31, Highland Park; Oscar Goepner, Troop 35, Ravinia; Brent Wrenn, Troop 45, Lake Forest; Raymond Fogg.
