Building huts has always been a popular activity at Cardigan Mountain School. This year is no exception. The waterfront at The Lodge on Canaan Street was the scene of construction work up until this year. The extreme end of the Point property has been substituted this fall. The area reserved for hut-building looks out over the waters of Canaan Street Lake toward the distant Pinacle on the oooosite shore.
material is available to the boys who are dabbling in carpentry. This year, there is 'a hut built in lean-to style. Another is li-ke a small house. Lumber is said to be scarce ., but the boys are cleaning up the grounds of any stray pieces. This serves a double purpose - it keeps the boys busy and tidies up the camp us. The size of th e huts is about 6 x 6. Architecture varies with the individual. Buster Blomerth, St eve Hanson. Frank Miller, Torn Watson and Bob Morris are arnoni:r those en-

It's Never Too Late to ·Learn
The first snow flu rr ies have been noted in Canaan. The winds that preceeded them stripped the trees of the colorful fo liage that made autumn again the most beautiful season here at Cardigan.
The new campus is rapidly taking shape and plans have been complet_e d for new buildings to add to the cluster of Georgian stl'u ctures here on the Point property. The football field behind Clark- Morgan Hall is nearly ready for athletic events. vVhat about the boys at Cardigan Mountain School r Are t h ey too shaping up? This year, we have one of t h e best grou ps ever to en roll at Cardigan. Nearly 80 fe llows are attendin g the schoo l. Except for a mere handful, they represent the highest caliber fro m previous years and outstanding new boys who have co me h ere fo r t he fi r st time. It is later than you may think. A lready g rades have been ta llied.
