The Mountaineer 39 
adding greatly to our pleasure. The cruise was a pleasant 
change from the many days of walking, and as we rested lux- 
uriously on the steamer’s decks and feasted our eyes on the 
rugged grandeur of the crags and cliffs beside us, it seemed 
that the treasures of Nature’s great picture gallery were in- 
exhaustible. 
The last camp was at Lakeside, and here the report of 
the committee on resolutions was read, thanking individually 
and collectively the members who had made the outing an 
unqualified success: Mr. L. A. Nelson, Mr. Melvin Krows, Dr. 
E. F. Stevens and Mr. P. M. McGregor, ‘all of whom had 
challenged our admiration at every turn’; Prof. Edmond 8. 
Meany, “for conducting our campfire programs in his de 
lightfully felicitous and gracious manner, and for his own 
fund of contributions, poetic, legendary and historic.” In 
conclusion they voiced the sentiment of all: “It seems ap- 
propriate in our last camp beneath the stars to give thanks 
also to Mother Nature for her gentle hospitality in tempering 
the winds and the storms to our comfort, and in placing at 
our disposal her green meadows, her flowering slopes, her 
sparkling waters, her towering crags, and in giving us for a 
playground mountain parks guarded by her sacred snow 
peaks.” Then following the precedent of former years, we 
formed in a great circle around the glorious fire and sang 
Auld Lang Syne to the echo. 
The morning call sounded at 4 a. m. of our last day, and 
by 7:30 a. m. all had walked four and one-half miles to Chelan 
Falls where we took the boat to Wenatchee, where representa- 
tives of the Commercial Club hospitably entertained us at 
Hotel Elman with a fruit luncheon, followed by a reception 
in the club rooms. Automobiles were waiting and two hours 
were spent in driving out to see the great orchards. 
At 3:02 p. m. we boarded the Great Northern for home, 
arriving at 10:55 p. m.
