Also it was t mentionad that in order to have perfect harmony at all times in the patrol the leade must thoroughly understand the boys he is working with. ne thing that has not been put in to practice to any great extent here is the regular holding of pa-| trol mectings in addition to the seout meeting. These mectings may be held either weekly, monthly or semi-monthly but they are quite easential to the progress of the trol and troop. Definite Program The boys realize that unless al definite program is prepared for! the patrol meeting nothing can be accomplished and also that the| meeting must be steady enough tog secure a second invitation from the | boy's parents at whose home \hc} meeting was held. i Then the boys took up the prob-| lem of having good attendance fcri" all occasions.

BAKER TELLS PARENTS OF - SCOUT WORK Field Executive Gives In- | teresting Talk at Ju- ; neau P.-T. A. “It is a great pleasure for us to { | | | 'be with you people in Juneau,” re- | marked Field Executive Fred E. Baker in a talk before the Juneau | Parent-Teacher Association last evening. “From the time we en- tered the town we have noticed a splendid spirit of cooperation and jand cordiality. “It is an unusual treat to appear | before a meeting of this kind,” said Mr. Baker in continuing his talk, |“as no ome is quite as intera:ied |in the work of the boys as tha parents themselves. “The most contact many parants (have had with actual scouting has |been merely watching their boys work with ropes, learning to tic the various knots, or pouring over a handbook studying on their scout tests. The actual workings of the scout program have been foreign to most parents. Tenderfoot Tests “In explanation, a boy, to be- {come a scout must pass the Ten- |derfoot tests which consist of know- “Iedge of the Scout Oath and Laws, i | | the Scout Motto, significance of the Scout Badges, the complete history of the American flag and nine stat- ed knots. When this work Has been completed the scout is ready to tackle the second class program. The second class work involves {learning elemental first aid and sig- nalling, outdoor cooking and fire- making, the proper use of a knife and axe, the mariners compass, thrift and safety around the home. Then the scout appears before a Court of Honor composed of some of the leading men of the commun- ity who are interested in the boys, {where he is reviewed on his work |and if found satisfactory is granted ihis badge. Now for the First Class | tests. First Class Work “In the First Class work the boy | strengthens his knowledge of first ald and signalling until he is very proficient in both, learns his nature lore gf the animals, birds, trees and /plants, map drawing and reading, !advanced camp cooking, hiking and swimming. After appearing before the Court of Honor and obtaining |nis badge he is ready to start| {on the merit badge trail. | “There are 86 merit badges a| |Scout can work on, each one a sep- {arate subject. ~After the Scout has |earned any five of those he is en- |titled to the rank of Star Scout.| When ten have been obtained, five of which are designated as required, he comes up for the rank of Life Scout and after being awarded 21 12 of which are required, he has |reached the goal of all Scouts, the rank of Eagle Scout. The merit badges and the three advanced ranks are also awarded at the Court of Honor. | Essence of Program “The main essence of the Scout Program is in the Oath and Law. When a8 boy joins a Scout Troop and at practically every meeting thereafter he repeats the Scout Oath which is: ‘On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to| God and my Country, and to obe; the Scout Law; to help other peo- ple at all times; to keep mysell| physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight” With such a creed as this, lived up to, a boy cannot help but grow up to be a man of stronger character and a| better and more useful citizen “The Executive Board and Exec- |utive Staff of the Seattle Area council were delighted when the National Council gave to us the | privilege of being of service to the | Alaskan people. I hope we shall warrant the trust placed in our hands. Help in Juneaun “We hope to be of particular) {help here in Juneau in obtaining | and training additional leadership | to carry on with the local troops. In the past the responsibility has largely been shouldered by Mr. Redlingshafer, who for the last seven years has devoted much of his time to working with the boys and will continue to do so but he must have help. Scouting, as it is in Juneau foday, is 2 tribute to his efforts and the most effective way the community can show its appre- ciation is to whole-heartedly back |the movement in every respect. | “We want %o urge every parent and friend of scouting %0 atend the rally, to be held at the Elks Hall Friday night from 7:30 to 9 o'clock.
