Bedecked in new paint and otherwise conditioned for another season of va- cation fun, Camp Letts, the 200-acre Y. M. C. A. Summer haven for Wash- ington boys on the Rhodes River near Annapolis, is making ready to open its twenty-fourth year on June 20, accord- ing to J. C. Ingram, director of the camp. The big gates of the new stone en- trance, recently presented to “e camp by its chief benefactor, John U. Letts, of local boys on the opening day. The initial two-week group now is being organized., Every two weeks thereafter new contingents of campers will arrive until the last of August. A broadened farm program, insti- tuted under the direction of E. A. Drumm of the staff of the Central Y. M. C. A, will supply the camp with an abundance of fresh vegetables. The camp has its own farm on the big pe- ninsula owned by the association. Boys from 10 to 18 years of age are eligible for the camp. The staff of leaders will be composed of college- trained men. The camp has permanent administration, recreation and mess building. The tent-houses overlook the Rhodes River and Chesapeake Bay and are shaded by a grove of trees. There are 2 miles of shore line, with safe beaches. A big campus serves as an athletic fleld. Boating, fishing and swimming are the chief water sports. The camp program a four-fold objective, designed to develop mind as well as body. The campers are rated according to skilled strength, knowledge of outdoors, practical Christianity and service to others. The camper attain- ing the highest rating each two weeks is awarded a silver cup, and the camp- er with the highest rating for the sea- son wins a “leg” on a large cup do- nated by the Washington Lions’ Club. The cup will be given permanently to the boy who wins it for three succes- sive seasons. will be thrown open to several bus loads | ‘The great man runs his brilliant race, and dies at the appointed time; some other fellow takes his place before the death bells cease their chime. The great man wondered as he wrought just what would happen when he died; he feared the town would be distraught, its business tangled up and tied. Oh, who could wear the great man’s shoes, and who could wear the great man’s hat? The great man often had the blues from thinking over things like that. But when he soared to realms afar, all done with life's exciting game, the village never knew a jar, and things moved onward just the same. For seven days, or eight, or nine, we talked about his high career; our eulogies were truly fine, and now and then we shed & tear. But time in its swift passage brings a strong desire for change of themes, and soon we talked of other things, and framed up new and shining schemes. The great man sleeps and we go on, and build new coops to house our hens, and paint the pump and mow the lawn, and write odes with out fountain pens. An Alexander loops the loops, there's sorrow in the souls of men; but soon they wouldn't give three whoops to have the hero back again. A Caesar falls Jjust when he plans to do big, gorgeous things for Rome; he’s stricken down by also-rans immortalized in Shakespeare'’s dome. The Roman heart then feels like lead, there’s crape on every Roman door; but Rome goes on, with Caesar dead, just as it went six months before. The great men come and do their stuff, and if they're wise they will not say the world will not find the sledding rough when they are dead and filled away. The world moves on, severe and dour, no matter what the great men do; it mourns their passing for an hour, then looks around for something new. ‘WALT MASON.

MONTREAL, June 4 (#).—Rudyard Kipling, returning to England with Mrs. Kipling from a three-month visit to Bermuda, reached Montreal Monday. He said he thought John Masefield a ‘very good choice” as Britain's poet- laureate, that he knew “nothing about India” and that his one-time reference to Queen Victoria as “the widow” was written so long ago that it concerns no- body of this age. Somebody asked him which of his books he liked most. He rejoined, “The Last Baby Is the Best Loved.” At the first wedding in five years in Sutton Benger, England, Rev. R. C. L. Westlake appealed to the maidens of the village to follow the bride’s example. RESORTS. BEDFORD SPRINGS, PA.
