The building is 75 feet long by 25 feet wide and will accomodate a- bout 40 people. About four months ago a start was made on moving the old camp building from the Naismith Mill level to its present position one and a half miles higher up on the pla- teau. Every plank and the lum- ber of the old mill had to be carried up to the plateau for the construction of the present camp building, this also applying to the bricks for the chimney. The ski trails have not yet been finished, but the ridge has plenty of small slides and trails for those who wish to use them. It is the intention to provide a number of small jumps, the larg- est of which is to be 50 feet long, and in about two weeks the surface of one of the lakes will be cleared of snow and ready for skaters. Next Sunday morning pictur- es are to be taken of the activi- ties of the pleasure seekers at the camp.
