James MeIntoali, of. Owen Sound,
was renewing old acpuaintanees in
town on Monday. It's 8 years sine an o/d boy of Samalkot School to
Mr. JVIcIntosh moved to tihot North- .
ern City. come and visit, his little school at
I Madras Scout Camp with its lines of
I white tents and its glorious big bon-
' fires and eing-songs, and of the won-
derful lessens learned from the
"Doragarus" (White men) who came
and lived right with our Indians,"
So "Camp" loomed large on our
horizon. But the little old woman
who lives in the shoes scratched her
head a great many times and won-
dered how and when and where.
And then came the inspiration—Un-
pada—Uppada with its sandy beach,
and long lines of aehite-capped brea•
kers; Uppada with its travellers'
bungalow and great opsn spaces.
That was the place.
The last whistle has gone and the
boys swing off, very gay with their
blue neckerchiefs and all the kkaki
the combined efforts of the schoul
could summon—staves from which
dangle small bundles of clothes and
mats, over shoulders—here and there
cooking utensils or earthen mr,s car-
ried in a yoke—at the head the Bri-
tish flag. Books have been -written
en "simple" camp equipranne but
Samalkot troop were born and
brought up on the simple life. We
journey eight miles by train to Pith -
amnion and seven miles on 'out; un-
der the interlocking branchee of
great trees, and then there is the sea
with its tumbling breakers, chasing
the big boys back to safety. We have
reached the lippada.
The first thought was supper.
Some boys dug the tren ',tee for
cooking, :wine drew water with a
pin: leaf bucket and set it boiling
for the rico, some went to the baz-
atm to buy onions, salt, oil and tam-
arind. Quite a number went to seal
lbe bargain for their choice of the
11 11 that lay in piles on the shore,
fresh from the nets. But somehow
n11 adiated back to watching pot af•
ter pot of rice, bubble ap, get soft,.
mil finally strained and placed op
growing heap filet meant solace
to an aching void. Miss North, who
chanced to be pienieking in Unpada
that evening, brought over the ice
left in the ice cream freezer. The
boys wanted it so badly they almost
fell over each other gutting there.
But there was a gTeat cry of "Oh, 14
bites, it bites," when thy got it in-
to their hands. Supper owe' (etch
boy washed his one and only dill.—
his rice bowl. All met together Inc
ulByer. Then mats and sheets; were
,orod out on the ground and soon
there was not a sound save the re-
gular beat of the waves on the shore.
The great golde11. monn turned all
into fairyland.
There novor was such a dily---TIS-
ing wh!stle when the first shimmer
ehowed in the sky—drill and morn-
ing prayer on the wet shoes; looking
over the great sea with its myriad
tiny white sails dancing, daneing,
dancing en the rosy light, then that
wonderful first dip and home for
breakfast. The boys spent the morn-
in3 in exploring the shore and find-
ing a place where they could swim in
the back -water for tests, They found
wonderful colonies of guile and oth-
er sea birds. Coming home we
found that the fisher folk, the mon-
ing's work over, weee having a glor-
ious time in the sea. The young
men andboys had unfastened the
two long hollowed tree trunks that
make a boat of sorts and -0110e ueing
the one piece to ride the breakers,
some standing. and some lying along
it. Our boys had never seen this fun
before. But they were not long 111
getting into it too. Evening brought
first -supper with the hottest fish cur-
ry Miss Parnell and I had ever taated
and then song and story—yes, even
an Indian mother-in-law story—
around the camp fire on the beach.
Before leaving the following day,
we had a wonderful sight, The sea
was like a glassy Millpotd. A school
of very large fish had come in canto
near tho shore. They chamed one
another, leaping out of the water
doubling and turning niost graceful-

AN important thing in any busi-
nem is a satisfied customer.
Tastes differ, however, and
white may pleaee me nfay not please
you. Thls is especially SU with hon-
uy. Some prefer Inwkwheat to any
other, whereaa 1 would not have it BS
a gift. If :di honey were like a sem-
pie I tasted down south I would NOY-
el' W11111 another drop. Yet 110 doubt
1..eme liked it,
This year our honey has a high-
er color and more flavor, which eome
prefer. We kept the furnace going
night and day during extracting so
as to prevent it from absorbing moie-
ture and.becoming thin, for we can-
not tolerate thin honey of any kind.
If at any thne you are not satis-,
fled with our honey, use It as beet
you can and call and get your money
back. You do not even need to re-
turn the pail,

Uppada which is a village on the
Pithapuram field. The boys were
very glad to tell of what them Scout
work meant, of its great end to ser-
vice, and how it takes the very best
kind of Christian to make a good
Scout. After the meeting the moth-
ero plied us with questione—"How is
my sister Mary's son?" "Is my grand-
son from Tni going to pass?" "Do
you remember my son who studied
in Samalkot a long time ago?"
"What made you come front a big
place'dike Samalkot to our miserable
little village?"
The boys set out on the hike
home, happy and tired, full of glow-
ing accounts, of their adventure -a, and
especially of the wonderful fish cur-
rieswhen everyone had enough and
to spare. They sang with a new
gusto—
"Boy Scouts are the happia,st of all
boys,
They learn to be brave and be true.
They learn to serve others with joy.
They learn well their duty to do.
They'll do you a good turn with
pleasure,
When you are in need or distrees.
The Sarnalkot Boy Scouts 'forever,
Three cheers for the Red, White and
