greate. t active volcanoes* 200 girlo*
most of them pretty and all of them
charming; arc spending a vacation of
two months in a manless Kden.
This is not a scenario; it s a dc*
scription of Hawaii’s summer camp
for homeless and homesick school
teachers.
A few week:* ago some ..00 woman
school teachers of Hawaii heard the
sad news that they could not get back
ot the states for their summer vaca
tion* the army transports being booke l
lull with army officers and soldiers
and the passenger liners being sold
out for months ahead* war service
having taken many of the Pacific's
finest steamers to the Atlantic.
When the teacher’s predicament be
came known* L. A. Thurston* Honolulu
newspaper publisher* suggested the
idea of a summer camp for teachers
at Kiluueuii’ where the great elevation
an<l cool climate would give the young
women a pleasant change from the
rather depressing summer heat of the
Hawaiian lowlands. The cooperation
of the department of-public education,
the Y. M. C. A. and the army was en
listed. the military camp at the vol
cano being obtained for the accomoda
tion of the teachers and such Y. M. C.
A. members as cared to'attend.
The public schools closed June 27
and the summer camp opened June 29*
to close about September 1. A summer
normal school is being conducted in
connection with the camp hut atten
dance i.' not obligatory. The young
women are being provided with meals
at actual cost.
