One of the neatest camps we have visited this season is "Camp Blue" located on the river about a half mile south of Faulkner's ford. Messrs. Pyle, Luberger, Pitcher, McKibben and Johnson are the gentlemen in charge and they have things fixed up in good shape. Mrs. McKibben is the genial chaperone and several of the young ladies of the city are enjoying the pleasure of a few days' outing. They have all the comforts of home and more too. Their sleeping tents are models of comfort, while the bill of fare which they serve would do credit to a first class hotel. We suspect, however, that Mrs. Luberger is entitled to a good share of credit for the excellence of the culinary department. They have lots of visitors, but they entertain them all in the best of style. In addition to their excellent meals, they also give an evening's programme of music, dancing, fun and frolic which would do credit to a first class minstrel show.
