All .scouts took enough provisions to cook supper, and after arriving at their destination the .scoutmaster taught the boys formation machin ery. Thi.s took up about thirty min utes. By this time the boy.s were beginning to get rather eo.ld, and were led through some brisk running to get them warm. It was time to start preparing supper by this time, because it was growing dark. The boys paired off into twos and built their fires in a straight line, making about eight or nine fires. About for ty or fifty minutes was taken to cook and eat. After finishing sup per, the scouts pleaned up the place, and left it ju.st as it was when they began cooking. A very fine time was declared by every scout and they look forward to another such hike!
