the thrust of your paddle. Otter Creek with its
pagentry of song birds, b eckons to you. Cool, 1'efreshing waters wash the sandy beach, ever ready

in Scouting. Twilight is
the signal for the campfire and the council ring'neath the starry sky, offers perfect fellowship.

CALLS YOU!

�MOTHER AND
DAD

KIA KIMA, under supc1·vision of
a con1n1ission of
the E x e c u t i v e
Co1nmittee of the
Chickasaw Council, is op e rated
as a part of the service to boyhood of lVIemphis.
Scouts only are eligible.
A Camp Officer always leads special hikes.
Swimming and canoeing are in charge of a strong,
fearless swim1ner. Afte1· passing a rigid exainination, and demonstrating ability to care for others
as well as self, a Scout is permitted to use a canoe.
Because of special instruction, it is a rare occasion
when a boy leaves ca1np before mastering the art
of swi1n1ning.
No idle hours at KIA KIMA. Duties are perfol'med with cheer. Camp without responsibilities
would be none at all. Boys who spend their sumn1el's at KIA KilVIA return more desirous of shouldering home obligations.
As popularly conceived, there is no discipline.
There is morale! Penalties are not needed. Rules
are few. Personal responsibility-the basis of good
citizenship- is the guide to conduct.
Parents are welcome at KIA KIMA. By communicating with Scout Headquarters well in advance it is generally possible to arrange for Mother

I

.

�or Father to spend a few days with thei1· Scout.
\Ye are anxious for you to know KIA KE\IA intimately.
A Scout is Reverent. The Sabbath is observed.
Scouts are expected to use Bible or P1'aye1· Book
daily. Inspirational services are conducted each
Sunday. Special speakers are frequently present.
Scouts the1nselves take active pa1t in services.
Buildings are of the lodge type, and accommodate eight Scouts. Five new stone buildings replace
wooden structures. There is a recreation hall, a
la1·g·e n1ess hall, an office building, a hospital, and
a Chief's lodge.
Vegetables and milk are fr01n the Scout farin.
Supplies are purchased in wholesale quantities.
Thus every item on the menu is under control of the
director, and all chance eliminated. \Vater is supplied by two deep wells. Proper disposal is made of
all refuse. Rigid personal inspection is executed
daily. Lodg es are inspected each morning and
awa1·ds given for excellency. A medical office1· is
on the ca1np staff. You may spend inore Jnoney--you
will never get better service. KIA
KIMA has the
best. No spoiling
or catering to individual whims. Just
a c 1 e a n, wholes01ne, active policy:
The l\Iaking
of A1nericans

Chie.f Craig is a regula r bug on nature study.
