If there are any boys desiring ad- mission to the Scout organization now, they must be put on a wait- ing list and wait for a vacanty before they can be voted in. How- ever, there are plenty of boys in this community to organize an- other troop under another Scout- master, and this should be done, for there is not a member who does not benefit by his belonging to the organization. Every. scout takes an oath before being admitted, ‘‘To do my duty _ be- fore God and my Country, and to obey the Scout law; to help other people at all times; to keep my- self physically strong. mentally awake, and morally straight;’’ and every good scout keeps this oath in mind at all times. At ev- ery meeting, each scout makes a report of the good deeds he has done during the past week. He is also expected to report any ill deeds he, or any other scout, has committed, so that in this way, every scout is a committee of one to.see that the scout law and oath ‘is kept. “The matter of establishing Boy Scout Service Station at Ni their Headquarters in the base, ment of the Court House was Capital..................... $50,000.00 Surplus.................:. 50,000.00 Undivided Profits......... 10,000.00 We offer the best of service in all departments We are especially. well prepared ‘to take care ofthe .
