days at Lake Sweetwater.
Eduators believe that summer
camping is America’s most im-
portant original contribution to
the nation’s physical education
program. Parents have long
known that campers, under su-
pervised recreation receive as
much actual physical training
as a year at school.
Observation is one of
greatest aids in rounding out
education and campers, under
well supervised conditions, are
taught good companionship,
.self-reliance, speech, music, han-
dicraft and sailing, swimming,
Sweetwater.
Summer camping should be a
part of the heritage of every
American boy and girl, councel-
lors believe.
Mrs. Luciie Oglesby, Dallas,
professional director of Camp
Fire Girls work will be in
Sweetwater July 4 to start act-
lhe ivities. Mrs. U. H. Morgan is
president of the council and Milo
Roth, general chairman of the
camp.
Girls have only until Saturday
to make reservations for attend-
ing the six-day outing.
