Camp Fire Girls Off On A Hike
The Camp Fire Girls of Potter spent the latter part of the week on a hiking trip near Point of Rocks and other desolate spots. About twenty or more, in uniform bloomers and red ribbons, were led by Mrs. Thomas Cowser and Miss Dorothy MacAdam. They occasionally sendt to town for grub but most stayed out, while a few returned home to the parental roof. It’s a great life if you don’t weaken.
