This is the season of camps and campers. There is something delightfullyj primitive in the soul of man that re-1 sponds with eager enthusiasm to thej call of the big out-of-doors.. There; comes a time when all of us would! like to slough off some of the effete! civilization that is bred by furnace-! heated homes and electric ranges, soft beds and servant-prepared foodj and meet life where it is a little | more real, less buttressed by con-1 ventions and hot biscuits for break-' fast. To be sure there are some who are so softened by the debilitating influences of civilization as to prefer the so-called summer resorts, wnere nature is served a la carte. Instead of couch; instead of khaki and boots! the canvas cot there is the cano*pied! are crepe de chine and French slip-1 pers. Such as these can never hope to reach the land of promise, of i poetry, and of placid stillnesses; the' land of romance, that lurks in the woods, beneath the cliffs and in shadows. There are many places to camp and many varieties of camps. $ut the true camp is essentially simple, I with a tent or a cabin for shelter, aj few cooking utensils and clothing, the most useful and serviceable. There should be no impedimenta that can be dispensed with. And of places to camp it is hard to say whether forest-clad mountains or the river valleys are most en-| trancing. But we believe the mountains are more satisfying. There is something uplifting, elemental, irresistible, all conquering in the mountains. On the other hand there arei .... < 1_! the rivers that run swiitiy tnrougn; the meadowed pastures, where cat-| tie graze, the banks fringed with' willows and nature peaceful in the , soft sunshine of summer. |( Then there is hiking, and fishing,! and bathing, and boating, the hun-1 dred and one activities that spell life! in the open. It's a life for action?' living in the true sense. There are' no frills to it, but it brings strength: and peace of "soul. Try it just once aTifl vnnr ara an flrlHirt for life. That is, if your fibres, mentally, morally i ^ > and physically are not hopelessly degenerated by the enervating action of conventional life. CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATION,! j? ?

A considerable majority of the Board, both Synodical, and Local were present. We had a very satisfactory report from the President, Dr. L.
