First a discussion on what a patrol leader should know was held. It was.decided that, among other things, he should be well versed on how to teach tests, how to camp out, how to teach games and how to_plan patrol activities. Then ten qualities of character a patrel leader should have were discussed. These are likeableness, endurance, ambition, determination, énergy, reliability, salesmanship, humbleness, initiative and patience. Quite a detailed discussion took place on how to teach scouts their tests. In the Tenderfoot work it was suggested that discussions be held on different points of the scout oath and laws, that patrol good turns be planned and brought | to execution, that the boys draw rough sketches of the Flag and| draw sketches of the flags of dif- ferent periods of American history or hold a quiz competition based on the history of the Flag. On the knot requirement the boys may have relays and quiz competitions. For the second class requirements on first aid work the boys may bring in newspaper clippings of ac- cidents that occurred and then with a boy for a victim the scouts can practice treating as they would have done in the actual case. Also it was thought advisable for each patrol to have a training kit. For signalling it was recommended that | the boys do their work out in the open, using flags, flashlight, helio- | graph and whistles. For knife and axe it was sug- gested that contests be held in making various articles of handi- craft, etc. Also that the patrol leader teach to all new scouts com- ing into the troop the corregt method of using an axe or knife. Some fellows need to be shown a| proper way to cook in the open 2lso. This can be done very nicely on a patrol hike. Nature and map-making seem to be among the most important in the first class requirements. A} nature study hike is always a treat and specimens of the various trees, ete., can be collected at that time. Plenty of time should be. spent teaching the scouts their mapping test. Some fellows might try to get by with a poorly drawn map unless carefully shown. Scouts 'should be urged to take their four- teen mile hike in the company . of another scout and should make ‘a detailed report on exactly what ‘was seen on the trip. ‘The boys seemed rather sorry that yuufllars was the last ses- and all intend to get a hun- {was the'architect. dit is the Superintendent of the NEW SCHOOL BUILDING AT Sage Memorial Is Complet- ed—Is Credit to Town and Builders J.

It is approximately 50 feet by 100 feet, two stories and a basement, and is built of reinforced concrete. Situated on the shore line in front of the main buildings of the Sheldon Jackson School, it presents a very imposing appear- ance and is one of the finest build- ings of its type in Alaska, besides being the best looking school build- ing in the Territory. It is finished in cream colored cement stucco and the architecture follows modified Gothic lines. The building houses the manual training department, which consists of the carpenter shop, machine shop, print shop, bootmaking shop, drafting room, and two class rooms.

They kept continually on the run from the opening Scout Oath until the clos- ing ceremony. After the report of the patrol |leaders the Scouts played “Patrols | Alert,” which took out lots of excess steam. Then the group was di- |vided into six patrols who met in various corners of the hall to dis- cuss what good turns the Scouts could do to help the town. Sug-| \gestmns made were that the bovfil could assist elderly people in clean- ‘mg up their property whenever the | opportunity afforded, that they | could assist - the city by helping keep the gutters clear of mud and “rope hike,” which means each lscouc bringing ten or twelve feet of |rope and the patrol going around 191—542 | town repairing fences, planks, gates, | or any other object which a piece |of rope, properly used, could im- \prcve Many other suggestions were | made but these were-the most im- | portant.

The Scouts from troop One won | the honors in a knot-tying relay.: All the Scout knots were used and mi of the boys were well up on their stuff. The keynote of the evening, as far as honor is concerned, came when they all played “Dizzy Izzy.” Parents and boys alike held their sides with laughter for a full ten utes while the game was being ayed. For the benefit of those rested in this “Dizzy Izzy” game have been hearing sa much about it is played by the boys lin- ing up in several lines, the first llows running to the end of the 11, putting one hand of the floor and running around it ten times, Then they stagger back to the line and touch the hand of the next Scout who does the same thing. Some of the boys wobble all over we reachlng their line. The last half-hour of the meet- ing was spent in a campfire pro- gram singing Scout songs and hav- ing a real good time. Mr. Bakzr‘ told a story tha thad as much kick for the parents as for the boys. Except for occasional bursts of glee | you could hear a pin drop at any time while the story was being told. About thirty parents turned out for the meeting. Those-who did not missed a big evening of enjoy- ment. ——er——— STORE HOURS Goldstein’s Emporium will be open until NINE P. M.
