SALEM BOY 5 FlfiE TIME IU CUP Spirit of Happiness Is Noted from Letters Sent From YMCA Tents A general note of happiness and pep is evident in the letters re ceived from the YMCA summer camp, penned by Horace Steward, a Salem youngster, and official "historian" of the trip. That the boys are having a good time is intimated in the fol lowing letter received by The Statesman Tuesday: YMCA Camp, Aug. 2. Dear Statesman: Today is Monday and I think yesterday was Sunday and the day before was Saturday. Saturday we played mass games. We also had some bdxing and hatchet throwing, or rather tomahawk throwing. Mr. Crary came up to camp Fri day night. Ivan Kafoury and Sipperel came with him. Mr. Crary was the cook last year at camp. He certainly is well liked by the boys. Our camp is becom ing more like an Indian camp every day. There are seven tents and all of them have an Indian name. Tent 1 is Cheppewa tent, tent 2 is Shoshone, tent, tent 3 is Iroquois, tent 4 is Cheyenne, tent 5 is Apache, tent six is Sioux, and tent 7 is Nez Perce. Chief j Bent and his Indian braves from his tribe of Chemawa made our great medicine man, Na-da-ne-na (Mr. Bateham), an Indian sweat house. It will be used to punish braves of the seven tribes who have no camp spirit, or who are grouchy or don't use table man ners. (The sweat house is harm less, but very effective.) Sunday many paleface papouses, braves, squaws, and chiefs pow wowed at camp. In the afternoon the braves played their chiefs in a game or inaoor baseball, me braves won, 11 to C. Last night we forgot we were "Injuns" and played Irish foot ball. This afternoon we are go ing to have a "Hound and Hare Chase." ' Yours truly, HORACE STEWART. P. S The desserts are elegant out here.
