Camp Notes By Leon G. Kidd Friday evening, June 12, the members of this camp were called out to fight a forest fire, 50 miles west of Milford in the Pine Valley district. All members of the camp, excepting about 10 connected with the camp overhead, left here about 6:30 p.m. and were on duty until Saturday evening, and Mime had to remain until Sunday morning. The condition of the country at the location of the fire made it difficult diffi-cult to reach, bein on the slopes and top of the highest mountains in that country. High winds Monday made it necessary to call on the camps at Cedar and Kanosh, and about 8 o'clock that night 73 men from Cedar City and 40 from Kanosh arrived here and were immediately sent to the scene of the fire. Since the first of the week new fires have broken out in several places for as much as 15 miles from the original "fire. These have been put out and the fire in general is under control. Captain Adams, who is visiting in Kentucky and Ohio, paid a visit to his former camp at Walton, Kentucky. From word we have received, he is having a nice time. Due to the fire Friday night Chaplain Curtis was unable to hold his program here but went out to the fire with the boys and remained remain-ed most of the night with them. A. li. Olsen, our educational adviser, ad-viser, is in Logan attending a meeting of the educational advisers ad-visers of the Fort Douglas district. He will return June 21. Gabor Koncz, who has been visiting at his home in Richmond, Indiana, due to sickness in his family, returned, Tuesday. The Beaver spike camp was returned re-turned to the main camp last Saturday to assist in fighting the fire. |
