2 August 6, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 31 GIRLS' COUNSELOR TELLS ABOUT INDIAN HILL CAMP (Continued from page 14) own verses and Katherine Sanford won a prize offered to the younger girls for the best poem written in camp. There were also the nights that "Chief" told stories, memorable occasions that all campers look forward to and like verit- able small children they are always call- ing "tell us this one or that one." They love the old ones and are eager for new ones. The counselors had numerous clews and it is no wonder that they ecalled their cabin "Scotland Yard" and most of the | clews pertained to the midnight feast.
