It Is gratifying to note the increase in the number of summer camps in North Carolina. A few people have been aware of the fact that the Blue Ridge of North Carolina offers cli mate, scenery, unique places of inter est, and an array of natural wonders not equalled by any other section east of the Rookies. Cool nights, moder ate summer temperature when it is un bearably hot anywhere but in the high mountains, and freedom from mosqui toes makes possible an exhlleratlng outdoor life with none of the ordina ry disappointment and pests. Dr. and Mrs. A. P. Kephart, the for mer a professor of Education in The North, Carolina College cf Women, after varied oamp experiences, have deoided to construot and direct a camp for girls at Blowing Rook, N. C. The work of construction has gone far enough to insure an early coroplc tion. Commodious and comfortable wooden buildings are being erected in such a manner that they may be thrown wide open to permit actual living in the outdoors. The complexity of town life makes it almost a necessity for normal devel opment that the growing boy or girl be given some opportunity to get a way from the idleness of vacation time to jk place wnert worm wnue ac tivities not available during the school year may serve to ouua strong ood les- and at the same time provide new ideas and Ideals. "CAMP YONAHLOSSEE" will provide the usual outdoor activities of camp life, such as swimming, horse back riding, games and arts and crafts. The construction of Indian con trivances, playing Indian games, hi king, tramps, outdoor eookin?. wear Ing, pottery, and as much freedom as may be consistent with safety will play a large part la the life of the campers. A very democratic organisation of the 'camp government and activities will permitpartlcipation on the part of campers in the discretion and con trol of awards, penalties and camp citizenship. A Chief and her Council, The Camp Pow Wow (the legislative body), and distinctive Indian names for the little rough bungalows insure . a form of life removed from the arti ficialities of home and school. A summer-camp, with the right am ount of vigorous outdoor life,, is a sorry place without plenty of good, nourishing food. "CAMP YONAH LOSSEE'" is fortunate in being so Sit uated and organized that the damp farm will provide all except the most common staples. The camp manage ment is going to make an abundance of food, fresh milk, eggs, butter, and meats, deflnately characteristic. Girls from ten to eighteen years of age will be1 taken. . The season is from July 1st toe August 31st Persons who are interested are requested to ad dress, Camp -. Yonahlossee, Greens boro, N. C. " Wit. V ..LI ' t . . wc. tuuamossee is loca ted on North Side Farm, owned by W, L. Winkler. We jre Informed by him that the big lake ia nearing completion and that a number of the houses are being built and thaterery thing will be in fine shape for the big crowd of girls that will be there by July. Great preparations in the way of fine milch cons, large gardens, the raising of plenty of lambs, beef cattle and chickens, combined with the large orchards are already under way which will Insure the finest of eats to those who eome to the camp. wheels, with the added ad van-1 tage of displaying the tractor and equipment in actual opera tion. . . i One interesting feature of the parade was the fact that Miss Parcola, within an hour or so of the time of starting the parade! had never attempted to drive a Fordson Tractor and knew nothj ing whatever of its mechanism. This was pointed out by' Ford dealers as demonstrating the ease with which the Fordson can be handled. And the fact that the pavements were wet from Thurs day morning's continuous driz zle did not hinder the Fordson in palling their weighed down trailers. Each of the forty-two Fordson tractors making by the parade was equipped with rubber tired wheels showing their adaptabili ty to city uses, and each was e quipment showing a specific use of the tractor in the city. Neatly painted banners announced the tonnage of each load or named the operation performed by the equipment. Altho the Fordson weighs less than 3,000 pounds, one of t h e in pulled behind ittwo trailers piled high with lumber; and coupled to one Fordson was a 19,000 pound load of coal. There were trailers for haul ing garbage, sand, clay, steel and other materials. A novel hea vy-duty street sweeper attached to the front of a tractor was de signed tohow its usefulness to the city fathers. Snow plows, road graders, an electric lighting plant, a winch, a cement mixer, a land leveler and a wheel scraper are some of the machines which took part in the parade. A banner on one Fordson, equipped with wide, flat wheels, announced the fact that it was adaptable for golf course man tainance. Several of the outfits used in the parade have been in daily op eration for a year or more by lo cal merchants; some operate in manufacturing plants; others were purchased by local contract ors; two were loaned for the oc casion by the City of Highland Park, and one by the village of River Rouge. Although the Fordson comes from the Rouge River Plant e quipped for farm duty, the sub stitution of rubber -- treaded wheels converts it into an econ omical power plant for either trac tion or belt power. The contrac tor may haul his various machin ery and equipment to the scene of operations with the Fordson, unhitch and start running his concrete mixer, hoist, land level er or other equipment with the same power. At the present time, the River Rouge plant is operating on a schedule of 200 Fordson tractors a day, which is not sufficient to supply the demand. The recent price cat of the Fordson from $625 to $393 brought in a flood of orders resulting in speeding up of production. ' ' -Advertisement.
