girls, and have decided that our camp 

 shall be the Tela-Wauket at Roxbury, 

 Vermont. This 1 believe is ideal. Mr. 

 and Mrs. C. A. Roys devote their time 

 and thought during the entire year to 



camp work.

with them a corps of assistants of loy- 

 alty and whole-hearted cooperation. 

 These assistants and councilors are 

 chosen because of exceptional fitness 

 for the part they are to have in making 

 the camp pleasing and beneficial to the 

 campers and a source of gratification 

 to the parents. Accompanied by my 

 daughter, I shall have charge of the 

 nature work at this camp, and the na- 

 ture work will not be natural science, 

 it will be nature study. A well-known 

 authority has made a distinction be- 

 tween these terms. Science, he says, 

 considers the subject, while nature 

 study considers the pupil. This nature 

 guidance will consist of a royal good 

 time for every girl. She is going to 

 know nature at first-hand and have a 

 deal of satisfaction in making the ac- 

 quaintance. Every reader of this mag- 

 azine knows from the department 

 "The Fun of Seeing Things," that there 

 is a real joy in getting acquainted with 

 nature. There will be more fun to 

 every square inch in seeing things with 

 a seeing eye at the Tela-Wauket 

 Camps than' at any other similar place. 

 There are two camps, one for Tie 

 juniors, the other for the seniors. Girls 

 from eight to twenty years of age who 

 wish to know why the editor of this 

 magazine is enthusiastically devoted 

 to the study of nature as a mental rec- 

 reation, as well as a factor in liberal 

 education, should inquire regarding 

 this camp. Full particulars including
