Miss Kirkland Goes
to Camp jyrt Maine
Camp Maqun, Poland, Maine, June
2.?Miss Lucy Kirkland, of Camden,
South Carolina, has received an appointment
to the camp staff of
"Maqua," located at Poland, Mnine.
Mips Kirkland is a member of the
junior class at Wfllesley College.
Maine is offering an experience unique
in history, the eclipse of August
81st.
Camp Maqua, 40 miles from Portland,
is set deep in the Maine pines
and birches and overlooks a stretch
of water ten miles long, Lake Thompson,
with the, White Mountain peaks
looming in 'the distance.
Two hundred campers enjoy their
vacations in cabins and cottages and
are as lazy or as active as Ife&y
choose. Mass Hazel K. Allen, executive
of the camp, has much experience
in camp administration and
knows what girls like for their holidays.
tyiss Allen was formerly on
the staff of -the Boston Y. W. C. A.
and has her headquarters at 000 Lexington
Avenue, New York City.
.Swimming is one of the most popular
sports at-Maqua. Tennis attracts
the less strenuous or archery.
Some prefer music, group singing,
discussions, reading and trailing as
the hours fly quickly and happily by.
, Camp Ares on the beach, Sunday
suppers on the dock, trips to the
White Mountains and to Bailey Island
attract large parties. How to make,
a willow branch serve as well aB an
electric toaster?(this is one of the
many thingk girls learn at "Primitive
Camp." Soon they ktjpw the seeretsi
of trail blazing, outdoor* cooking in |
the evening breeze and nights under!
the starlit skies. New friends give
a fresh slant on |ife while girls go
swimming at eleven and sun bathing
at two. Fun-loving, resourceful counselors
constitute the jolly staff, which
comes from all over the United
States and from foreign shores. The
campers represent practically all the
states. Frequently they extend their
| vacations to a month?that is what
Maqua in Maine means to them. The
eclipse this summer offers an added
attraction as a Maine experience.
