Over the bounding main to
France and home again with two
months of worldly experience be-
hind her in Janet Bird, a senior in
Architecture school.
Miss Bird spent the summer as
a counsellor in a French camp for
homeless children. The camp is
financed entirely by American
dollars, sponsored by the Mac-
Jannett Foundation which is lo-
cated in Boston. One hundred
dollars sends a child to camp for
the summer.
There were 90 talented French
boys and girls there, instructed
by 25 counsellors, picked from
both France and the U. S. The
project was begun in the '20's and
has had such distinguished camp-
ers in the past as Phillip Mount-
batten.

them. The round trip fare by boat,
is $300" stated Miss Bird, "and
train fare abroad is cheap."
The camp is located at Lake
Annecy, one of the two largest
lakes in France. It is deep in
the Alps on the border of Switz-
erland about 80 miles from Gen-
eva. The region is clothed in
mystery, folk lore, and sacred
legends.
The people of the territory areJ
very superstitious and guard their
stories jealously. They are proud
of their ancient heritage.
Swimming, mountain climbing,
and shopping tours kept the work-
ing tourists busy. Miss Bird had a
ten day trip through the French
Riviera, Paris, London and Ire-
land before returning home. She
stated that England seemed the
worst hit by the war in this post-
war era. Blocks of devastation and
poorly dressed, hungry people
were the rule.
