romantic island in the land , of
the sky. ; ". . ' '
We love the idea and we love
the camp. It means to us hap
piness, recreation and self -improvement;
also, it means cool
weather in contrast to the hot
hills of South Carolina.
Nearly all of us from South
Carolina, a f e w from other!
states Our camp is composed
almost ; entirely of boys and
girls from the De la State School
an orphanage conducted by the
State of South Carolina. There
are about twenty boys and over
sixty girls in the crowd, besides
sixteen adulte including two
men, thirteen ladies and a cook.
Nearly all cf us came up in'carj
and expect to return the same

for us most bountifully,; Our'
