The following year, the Troop grew and the members advanced, A number of | winter hikes took place. Camp Plarmed In 1920, camp was planned far so the attendance the rgest it had ever been in all They had made a trek-cart in the spring which was quite a help. Nine, pitched in a semi-cirel« y Apple Creek, and everyone hated to go home, especially as the Hedrixs were so generous with everything. During the fine autumn a number of hikes were taken, especially by the | eight first-class members of the troop. It was along about this time of year that the great game of First} Aid was invented, so called because | of the need for first aid. A merit badge committee was formed “and| the troop began taking them Sep-| tember 1, 1920 and have been doin ever since Mr, Hanson became scoutmaster in the fall | A suce in June, 1921 though there comb, zell, fast in advance, was we on Apple Creek, al-| were less than on the camp of the previous year, Squad tents were used, and each patrol had its own tent.

Bruce Wallace became Eagle August | 1 and Glen Wallace on October 12. A bird study contest was held durs ing the whole of the year 1921, and} 111 birds were reported. About this | time, > Seoutm Hanson started | agitation for a cabin, which was im-| mediately taken up by the troop. Money was raised by a supper, and the actual work began, A cabin com- mittee was chosen, and Mr, Ward gave them consent both to build a| cabin on his land, and cut down logs for it, Work was started at the! end of the year, and progressed rap-| {idly through the winter and spring. | At the time of its dedication to Rev Jackson in May 1 it was well to- wards completion, lacking windows, door, stove ang floor. | In the spring, the Scout Eagle was started by three of the troops, and was managed by a staff from their troops, \ Two Camps Held That summer, two camps held, this time on Heart River? six | miles west of Mandan. The first| camp was a decided success, merit | badges being taken, while 41 in that| month made it a banner month. The | camp was manageg by a camp com- mittee, composed of the scouts them-| selves. A second camp was held, due | to the fact that Alfred Prater and Bruce Wallace were attending the University of Minnesota, which let! out after the first camp. Two weeks | after the first camp, eight members | Spent a week on Heart River. | In the fall of 1922 it seemed as though most of the members moved | away. Four moved to California, two 0 Grafid Forks, one to Texas, one to riscoll, three to Fargo, and two to N w York. Nine of these were merit! badge scouts, so it left the troop rather depleted. Mr. Hanson had re- summer signed as the character of his work| carried him out of town so much.| Mr, S. 0. LeBarron, the present scoutmaster, was then chosen, and under him the Troop went along as| usiial. A successful supper was held, and the cabin debt paid off. The callin was made habitable, ang it ‘was used a number of times during the winter, Plans for camp, were laid early,} and, like the year before, two were held on Heart River. held during the summer, and work went right on.

Pro- tein means “the most important.” The chief business of protein is for supplying material for growth and repo No child wants to be stunted, and that, is how he will be unless he has enough protein so he can grow. Many people think milk is only a |drink, but the health books say, that ja glass of milk has as much protein jas “a large egg or one and one-third Joynces of meat. “It is a pity that more pedple do not understand how {| good a food milk is. Other protein foods, like eggs and meat, have not as much protein as milk.,so then, milk is cheaper, even if it were fifteen cents'a quart. That is much cheaper than eggs or. meat.

Milk is often the most valuable food for infants, young children and lids. But in many cases raw milk contains disease germs and harmful bacteria which causes it to be worse than invalid for the natur- j ally weak. Pasteurization fas been termed the .priceless safeguard of public health. But before milk is pasteur- ized it should be cla the minute, invisible partic eign matter, whether soluble or in- soluble, which cannot be removed by the finest stainer but which, none the less, are harmful and often cause the repugnant taste of milk, must. be removed. No matter how carefully the milk has been handled before and after it reaches thé dairy the clarifi- jin: is always necessary to keep the milk clear, clean and pure. Pasteurization is the common method, now extensively employed, of applying a high temperature to jamilk Jo as to destroy as many bac: | teria as possible without producing undesirable changes in the milk. | Milk should be pasteurized be- cuuse; first, pasteurization renders safe for bacteria and lowers the tctal bacterial content of milk. The process kills many germs and the cooling checks the growth of | others Secondly, pastefrization delays the nuring of: milk because it checks the | bacteria which caitse milk to sour. | Under normal conditions pasteurized milk should keep sweet twelve hours longer th®@ raw: milk. Thirdly, pasteurization. destroys or | renders harmless, any disease germs which may b& present in the milk. Among the germs which it kills |are those of typhoid fever, diptheria These germs may be in the milk because is was drawn from diseased cows; because persons connected with the conveyance of the milk carried the germs or the milk way, have become contaminated by flies. It has been stated that the chief cause of tuberculosis is milk containing these germs and that! from six to seven per cent of milk on the market contains bovine tubercle bacilli. In the“fourth place, pasteurization aids in the removal of weed and feed flavors. Clarification removes a large portion and, pasteurization removes much .of the. disagreeable flavor whieh ‘remains. Fifthly, the acidity of milk. is slightly reduced by pasteurization. Bad milk eannot be made perfect but the danger from it’s consumption may be lessened. Boiled milk is as safe as pasteurized milk but és-move difficult to digest. It has been said Nervous?’ « Steepless?
