ooz r'yg THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, NOV. 8, 1929. SCOUTS ARETO HOLD RALLY AT ELKS TONIGHT Plan Hike for Saturday— Yesterday’s Sessions Well Attended A rally at Elks Hall tonight and a big hike tomorrow are two events that all local Boy Scouts are look- ing forward to with eager anticipa- tion. Both will be featured by the active partitipation of Field Execu- | tive Fred E. Baker whose work here | will come to an end next Tuesday evening. Keeping consistent pace with the spirit of the first two sessions of the patrol leaders' training course the meeting held yesterday after- noon was attended by 23 eager Ssouts. Boys Discuss Problems After a brief review of the work previously taken up the boys tackled the subject of intelligence on the part of the patrol leader. The ccoutmaster looks to the patrol leader for results on every project the troop attempts and if the pa- trol leader fails to use his wits, his patrol is liable to fall down. In addition to faithfully following | out the program laid out by the! troop officers it is essential that the | patrol does something on its own.| Suggestions made were carrying out patrol good turns, holding patrol hikes, putting on a patrol dinner where the boy treats his dad, and carrying out various patrol projects; like Building a big knot board, ml-" lecting specimens of various trees, or plants, etc. Patrol stunts were | also discussed and some valuable suggestions made for stunts to be| put on at the big Rally tonight. The discussion held by the boys on loyalty to their scoutmaster was well worth hearing. They felt that | the scoutmaster should have the un- divided support of every Scout in the troop. Anytime he suggested a project they feel that it is their privilege to help him put it across. A loyal Scout will never stand for hearing unkind things spoken of the man who devotes his time and leadership to the boys. Just to loosen up a bit the boys played a snappy game of “Patrols Alert.” This kept them on their toes for five minutes after which they were ready to settle down again to more serious matters. Patrol Leader's Duty One of the most personal discus- sions held during the entire coursei took place when the boys talked about the responsibilities the pntrnl‘ leader has in the living of his own/ life. As an example of a good| Scout, not only to the boys in' his patrol, but also to the community at large the patrol leader is scruti- nized carefully and for 24 hours of every day he must live up to the Scout oath and law. The boys felt that they could do more good for scouting by their action rather than their words. ‘Welcoming the new Scout into the troop and patrol and keeping the patrol alive on a snappy interpa- trol contest were two things the boys felt were special jobs of a pa- trol leader. The joint meefing of Troops One and Two was attended last night by Field Executive Baker who as- sisted the scoutmaster in making preparations for both troops’' parts in tonight's rally at the Elks Club, gave instruction in Life Saving and artificial respiration and taught the troops some new games and Scout songs. Hike Tomorrow All local Scouts are set for the big hike, leaving the Legion Dugout to- morrow morning at 8 o'clock sharp and returning to the city before 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Each Scout will bring his 'own lunch and his best Scout smile.. . Mr. Baker has promised a special treat in the way of a treasure hunt. This is something the Scouts have never yet taken part in and the patrol that wins will have to call in to play all of their scoutcraft.
