and roads. The charges at pri
vate camps run from $2XK) to $2.60
an hour. There are four horses in
camp. Two of these are ponies,
so that riding with the younger
boys has been very popular. Ath
ens parents with boys in camp
should avail themselves of thia
splendid opportunity and have
their sons ride at least twice
week.
The physical activities under
Roy GraysonVs supervision have
been splendid. There is a point
system at work where every boy
daily strives for the earning of
points. Then, the entire camp is
divided into rix major groups,
known as Georgia and Tech; Army
and Navy; aud Vale and Harvard.
The healthy spirit of rivalry is in
tense.
Jimmie Harris in charge of
swimming and water sports is
kept busy, and is accomplishing
a great piece of work. The four
swimming meets have averaged
about one hundred boys partici
pating in each rfieet.
John Green in charge of the
store and everything else around
camp that needs to be done, is one
of the most valuable leaders in the
■amp family. He has been partic
ularly helpful In the morning Bi
ble classes, where he has spoken
a number of times.
Th2 older boys nave been doing
most of the speaking at the morn
ing religious service and the cabin
leaders with their shack personnel
have charge of the vesper services.
Scott Epps with his canoe rac
ing and tilting, and care of the
canoes, and being in charge of the
hikes, is having a busy summer,
and has done his job splendidly.
Stanton Forbes, tin chairman
social and stunt features, as
sisted by Hm Lokey and Babe
Florence, have pu.t on the most
successful and varied social and
recreational evenings the camp
has ever enjoyed. This hs been
one of the features of camp life.

ENGLISH WRITER SAYS
SUN DOES THE MOVING
LONDON. — (/Pi — A book at.
tempting to prove that the sun re.
volves around the earth haa Just
been published In England.
It was written by William Ed.
gell, of Gloucestershire, and sums
up his experiments extending over
30 years. For the last two years
he has had a telescope trained on
the Pole Star and night after night
he has watched for some sign ot
motion.
Has the star budged? It has
not. But the case of the sun In
different. In the mom'-ng it was
shi ning in Mr. Edgell's front gard
en and in the evening ft was over
the back garden. The argument
is Impregnable but the book conj
tains added proof In experiments
w'tth oranges, smoke, pendulums,
eclipses and tides.
