A week from today and the boys of the Augusta Y. M. C. A. will be off on their annual summer camp. This year, under the care of Mr. Dan. G. Hal ford, boys’ work secretary of the As sociation, and his assistants, they will return to Flat Rock, near Granitevllle, S. C., for a stay of two weeks. There has seemed to be some mis understanding in the date of the camp. Mr. Halford announced today, official ly, that the camp will be held from June 22 till July 4th, Inclusive. The boys will leave the city with all their camp paraphernalia on next Monday, which is the 22nd. Some twenty or twenty-five boys have already signed applications to go on the camp. As It stands now Mr. Halford will carry along as his as sistants Mr. Bob Sherman, who is home from the University of Penn sylvania for the summer, and Arthur Herbert DeVaughn. naming them first and second lieutenants, respectively. Mr. Halford states that in case more than thirty boys are taken he will ap point another assistant, as It Is his in tention to have at least one leader to every ten boys. A fact that stands out remarkably In favor of the Y. M. C. A. boys' camp is that Mr. Halford’s camp his tory is perfi'Ct. He is very precau tions and believes at all times to do the safe thing and run no risks. With him there is no novelty about taking chances, and while strict with the hoys, there is not a fellow who has ever been on a camp under Mr. Hal ford who can say that he has not en joyed himself to the utmost all the time.
