1? s TOPS BILL TODAY 'Up In Mabel's Room' Boasts Fine Cast; Rialto's Pro gram Announced. This generation will have the opportunity to chuckle and laugh at a farce which tickled the risibilities of the generation before it, when Edward Small's "Up In Mabel's Room," arrives at the Craterian Theatre today. "Up In Mabel's Room'" deals with the highly funny and em barrassing adventures of a young newlywed who told his wife everything that happened to him before their marriage but neglected to tell her of an inscribed piece of lingerie he gave an attractive young wom an years before. Rather than face his increasingly suspicious bride and confess the young man attempts to regain the tell-1 Isl.

Beginning In ' 1929 with thirty-two camper capacity, theyhave progressed to a camp site that will accommodate eighty campers. And "growing pains" are still experienced! Plans are already being made for next year when perhaps the Girl Scouts can have three weeks of camp, instead of two, one week for Brownie Scouts, one for Intermediate Scouts, and one for the Seniors. Whether or not this plan can be carried out will, of course, be decided by the number of registrations lor each week. There were many highlights In our camping experience this year. A very popular event al ways is the Backwards Party. Wearing clothes backwards and eating a meal beginning with dessert and ending with Grace Is fun. A sixteen mile hike which the Pirates (senior Scouts) took brought them back to camp hungry enough yet not so weary but what ihey were ready for a swim to end the day. One eve ning, at dinner, the camp direc tor was kidnaped from under the very eyes of the whole camp family. She was blindfolded and led down to the lake where she was "forced" to get Into a row boat taking her to the hideway of the Pirates! The Pirates' den was a very attractive spot along the shore of the lake where they were having cook-out and overnight (PS. The director had a wonderful time and got back to camp safe and sound). A Ship's Party was held one evening In honor of "Captain" Henry, our camp caretaker. The dining hall was decorated In true shipboard style, with port holes 'n' everything. The Gyp sies and Foresters (Intermediate Scouts) wrote and produced their own skits for our last eve ning In camp. In between It all the girls worked seriously at perfecting their various favorite outdoor sports: Swimming, diving, and jabllity to handle a Doat; arcn- ery, horseback riding and slm pie camp crafts. Outdoor cook ery had to be curtailed because of the risk of forest fires. One day was set aside during each camp session when the campers decided to share with Girl Scouts and Girl Guides less for tunate than themselves. They bought War Savings stamps in stead of the uaual candy treats for themselves. $60 worth. In drawing the curtain on their fifteenth camping season the Girl Scouts of Medford may very proudly say that they have put the words of their Girl Scout hymn into practice: CORN REMOVER CItm liuunt rlil trwi Mia UralT MtnotM af m. coraM fcMwMa ! to.
