Camping Sites.

Smoke Abatement.
The use of war-time fuel gave rise to a few complaints which
were investigated. Remedial measures were carried out as far as
practicable.
Eradication of Bed Bugs, etc. The free issue of insecticides was
continued, and the number of applications for assistance was lower
than usual, due no doubt to war-time habits of sleeping away from
the usual bedrooms.
