For se eral hours during the first day of th ! seated chairs and brass beds, it offer- {ed but 1ittle of the “back to nature” idea—at least not as formed from !reading fascinating accounts in rec- reation and out-of-doors stories. There also was an absence of the genuine quiet and stillness one would expect in a mountain camp. Rural habitation was close at hand. Ideas of remoteness were removed by Whis- tling of trains which passed within less than a mile of the camp site. Farm lands, in a high state of culti- vation, bordered the grove, although these signs of human activity were for the greatér part hidden by the trees and foliage. Licking creek is not an especially picturesque mountain stream. It cer- tainly would not rouse nor tempt a painter of the beauties of nature. Not only was it muddy in color, but its banks—at least, the long stretch facing the camp—were abundant with rank weeds and muddy, colored grass of the marsh variety. It offered nothing in the way of fishing or bathing, and as for swimming, no one in the party gave it a thought, not even one of the half hundred per- spiring ,and hard-worked camp at- tendants. Meals Eaten in Tents. Although the meals were prepared in the open, they were eaten within tents with closely woven -netting screning the entrance flaps. For Princess Fatima, Sultana of Kabul and sister of the present reigning soverelgn of Afghanis- tan, with her three sons and Prince Zerdecheno, prince of Mi- 1an, Egypt, arrived In Washington vesterday afternoon for a three- day visit. The party came from New York, where the princess and her sons have been for a number of weeks. They are now on tour of the United States, and expect to remain in this country about a ‘month longer. Princess Fatima and her party will'go to the White House this afternoon at 4 o'clock to pay their respects to the President and Mrs. Harding. Tomorrow they will visit Mount Vernon, where' the princess will plaée a wreath on the tomb of Washington. While in Washington they also will visit the Capitol and othes points of in- terest and attend many social, functions arranged for them. The princess’ sons have been ‘educated in English schools and speak the English language flu- _ently. After leaving the United States the princess plans to visit England, wifere she will enter her sons-in college. When Princess Fatima arrived in ‘Washington she was wearing_in her nose a large sapphire. _She u-o is the possessor of one of the largest diamonds in the world, a stone, of fifty carats, which tor luster and brilliancy is not equaled. Hardly had she reached the hotel, however, before this gem was placed in the safe of the PRINCESS FATIMA, KABUL’S SULTANA, TO BE RECEIVED AT WHITE HOUSE President’s stay in the camp there were a dozen or more extra photog- raphers and moving picture men to record, the camp activities. | It gdes without saying that nothing of any moment occurred without bee. ign_ photographed.
