On the front porch of theigirls’ dor mitory could be seen’ mingled with the girls, bags and blankets and box es, ready for the word “go’.’, while the boys somewhat more anxious hail already carried their baggage out into the yard ready for the proper placing in the tuck. Prof. Adams came hurrying from his school-room work and the -girls were all anxious with such ques tions,"as “When do We go?” ‘‘Which is. our truck .’?” etc. All soon were comfortably seated on the truck and on their way with all necessary camping baggage. On and on went the joyous trucks, fol lowed by a Ford carrying chaperones and eatables. We reached the foot, of the mountain by dark but- our high' spirits would not let us camp there, so we continued for several miles up the mountain side where we found a suitable place to pitch camp.

One Price to Everybody singing, playing games, telling ghost stories, cooking, eating and trying to sleep, the girls packed in the trucks and the boys on the ground around the fire. All awoke early, contemplating a great day climbing the' Blueridge Mountains, and after partakng of oui camp cooking we were on out way up, up. ,up, with a full determination of planting, our feet on the tip of Blueridge for one time in life. Such scenes we never had seen! High ridg es on either side as we followed the ! winding road up the valley. On e.-iehing the top we stood dazed at ( the-wonder of nature, even here in! our own Georgia. As far as’ eye j cou’.d see on all sides the valleys and i ridges followed each other. As the j road did not cross at the highest ! point'we were not satisfied until we j had worked-our way up the rugged,, rocky, wooded hillside to the highest j peak within reach. -Now, our. eyes 1 were beholding nothing but ridge af- j fer ridge in every direction. What ! a joy to behold? Now, we had surely had a mountain top experience and content to descend back to the camp. The most ventursome ones wished to take the straight but- steepest and most rugged course down the mountain side, and after many falls and slides reached camp. ’ My! how we did eat. After re freshments and g few hours rest we left camp for home with the full sat isfaction of having spent the time well. We reached our home campus late in the day, hale, hungry and happy; knowing full well that our first trip ’ to the top of Blue Ridge Mountains would never fade from memory.
