Daily Tribune, Terre Haute, Vigo County, 18 June 1916 — Page 7
SUNDAY, JUNE 13, 1916,
While most members of women's world are slacking activities to a summer lull, others are anticipating many busy weeks ahead. Miss Minnie Conner belongs to the latter class. Summer means a lot of work to this library assistant, who has charge of the children's department of the library and who is the official story teller of this Institution. For several past summer seasons she has delighted the little folks—and quite a number of big ones •—with her story hours in the parks— Steeg and Collett. This summer will be no exception. The work in this line is slated to start at Steeg park on Monday afternoon, July 3. The" following Thursday Miss Conner will entertain the north end kiddies in the same fashion at pollett park.
It is impossible to estimate the good that has come of leading the scores of little folks into the land of fairies, heroes and heroines, castles and peasant abodes, with the always wholesome thread running through the stories. New ideals are no doubt established in the minds of the children their brains are stimulated to worthwhile things through this excellent form of entertainment. Miss Conner's personality which appeals so readily to the little folks has not a little to do with its success.
The summer vacation problem which ordinarily means to so many mothers "What shall I do with the children" has taken on a different aspect for most of these in giving the little folks of Terre Haute something to which they can look forward. The weather man being willing, Miss Conner "holds forth" in each park once a week. Truly it must be that as many mothers as youngsters are grateful for this excellent work. CAMPFIRE GIRLS WILL HAVE TEN DAY8' OUTINQ
Most of the members of the Owaissa campfire and their guardian, Miss Marion Hirtough, will start their annual camping trip early Tuesday morning. They will camp ror ten days at the Y. W. C. A. summer lodge at £mith park. Last year the girls named the camp "Woodpecker Haunt" because of the largo flocks of woodpeckers that were attracted there. No matter what others may call the camp, It will always be Woodpecker Hfc-unt to them.
The following interesting scneame will be followed: 7 to 7:30 p. m.—Prepare for council Are. 7:30 to 9 p. m.—Council fire. to 9:30 p. m.—To bed "Lights Out." 6 to 7 a. m.—Arise and air beds. 7 to 7:30 a. ?n.—Breakfast. 7:30 to 8 a. m.—Morning exercises. •S to 8:15 a. m.—Orders for day following. 8:15 to S a. m.—Clean can:p. 1) 12 a. m.—Honor work or hike. 12 to 1 p. m.—Dinner. 1 to 2:30 p. m.—Read and rest. 2:30 to 4 p. m.—Honor work and som practice.
I to 6 p. m.—Hike or play games. tj to 7 p. m.—Supper. Orders will be given the day before to give the girls, especially the cooks, time to prepare for their work. Each girl will make her own bed, and wash liei own dishes the cooks will see to having plenty of hot water and will wash all dishes used in preparing and serving the meaL To receive orders, the girls will line up and number the second day number one will go to the foot and number two will become number one, and so on. Thus all girls will help with all the work while there. The duties will be divided as follows:
Numbers one and two—supply wa ter for day. Numbers three and four—prepare breakfast-
Number five—clean camp. Numbers six and seven—prepare dinner.
Numbers eight and nine—prepare supper. Probably the two who carry the day's water supply will plan the council Are for the day and the one who sweeps and dusts and straightens the camp will keep that day's record to be ri-ad at the counoil fire the day following.
Honor work is to inolude all kinds of work for which honor beads are awarded at council flres, but more especially hand craft, camp craft and nature lore, such as painting, stencilins wood blocking, making baskets and Indian beads of reeds, weaving rrgs, leather work and photography building flres In wind and rain with material found In the woods—the girls being sure that it will rain malcing good devices for holding pots and frying pans over fire cooking beans in bean hole making biscuit in a reflecting oven knowing the wild flow ore, grasses, trees, weeds, birds and stars. «.
One hike will be taken each day, and during the heat of the day, after dinner, time will be spent resting, reading and writing. This schedule will be broken only for special programs, such as an all-day hike, or a sunrise prayer meeting away from camp.
A few rules will be strictly kept and the girl Who breaks one must go home. Girls will not be alowed to leave the top of the hill without permission, and must not wander off In twos and threes. They must not go to Ferguson without skirts on no practical joking allowed, such as sewing up garments or clothes, putting salt, dirt or anything in the beds perfect silence must
Youthful, Beautiful Skin Easy to Have
Tou may be as healthy as a bird in the air and still have a poor complexion. Changing seasons and temperatures, winds, dust and dirt, are apt to injure any skin, even though the general health be good. When these external influences spoil the complexion, the natural thing is to remove the spoil by external means. Ordinary mercolize'l wax will do this. It. will actually absorb the weather-soiled fllm-skin, a little each day. In a week or two you will have a brand new complexion, a new skin. The exquisitely beautiful and vouthfur complexion thus ac riired, comes so easily, without harm or discomfort, there's no reason why any woman should not adopt this simple treatment. Get an ounce of mercolized wax at any drug store, .apply nightly like cold cream, washing it off mornings. This will not fail in any case.
To quickly remove wrinkles, signs of care and age, bathe the, face oc-ca-i sionally ln a solution of powdered sax* olite, -l ee., dissolved~!n pint witch hazel. The results VVill surprise you.

(be kept after 9:30 to allow the full eight hours' necessary sleep. Visitors will only be welcome on guest day— Sunday. June 25, from 10 a. m. to 7 p. m. Relatives will be welcome at meal time, but the girls hope they will bear in mind the fact that campers are not prepared to feed multitudes, and that they will come prepared.
Special local honors of leather with appropriate symbols hand painted on them will be given to each girl who has learned all the campfire songs who never shirks her duty who writes the best record, and who plans the best council fire. There may be one or two others given as surprises.
The following are the girls who will go into camp this year: Ruth Pentecost, Margaret and Alice Gardner, Dorothy Boaz, Doris Bloomer, Evelyn and Hazel Wills, Eva Smith, Anna Carson and Marion Hartoaigh.
Lillian Hale has gone to Colorado for her health and Julia Draper probably will spend the summer in the country. Jewell Jones and Marguerite Hutcli.ings may spend the week-end with the girs at camp.
The Samoset campfire, with Miss Maude Paige in charge, will be at the camp at the same time. 8UFFRAGISTS (FROM OVER STATE WILL GATHER TO MEET MRS. C. C. CATT.
