Forty thousand scout wireless en- thuslasts throughout the country picked up President Hatding’s birth- day congratulations to the Boy Scouts u. America on the twelfth anniver- ary of the founding of the movement, sent from the White House by radio last week. > i Word of its coming had been sent broadcast by national headquarters, and all amateur radio operators were primed to receive it. The messsage read as follows: “This anniversary of an organiza- tion whose ideal is peace and friend- ship quite strikingly coincides with the birth of a new hope for world peace and friendship, at the recent conference of the nations here in Washington. The responsibilities dis- closed by that conference must be met by the men who come after us, and I look with growing confidence to that steadily increasing number of boys, who are. effectively trained to ‘do their duty to God and their coun- v’ and ‘help other people at all times,' as are the Boye Scouts of America” and throughoul the world. “WARREN G. HARDING,” . Many Interested in Work. 1t is estimated that fully 10 per cent of all enrolled scouts are interested in radio work. This means that thou- sands of scouts have receiving sta- tions and many of them sending out- fits as well. The plan aims to make the Boy Scout body the messenger service of the government. By virtue of the number of amateur stations scouts gontrol everywhere it will be possible for them to pick up messages of local and public interest and pass them on to the remote rural districts. They thay be used to circulate weather forecasts issued by the De- partment of Agriculture and in trans- mitting information regarding forest fires from the forestry department. The scouts will stand ready to warn their community of fires or flood or even to send warnings of danger in individual emergencies. Washington has a great many in- terested. At present, Maj. Evans is conducting a class of twenty scouts in radio, meeting weekly at the Boys' Y. M. C. A, Signaling by either sema- phore or Morse is one of the re- quirements of the scout manual. In- terest in radio has grown out of this, and the marvelous, romance of modern accomplishment in wireless communi- cation. Interest is now country-wide. National headquarters is at present working out plans with the govern- ment whereby knowledge and equip- ment of Boy Scouts in this fleld may be put at the disposal of the nation. Mount Vernon Pligrimage. Plans are shaping for a large at- tendance of scouts at the first an- {nual pilgrimage to Mount Vernon, Washington’s birthday, February 22, the one-hundred and ninetieth an- niversary of the birth of the father of our country. In honor of the levent, scouts will place a wreath at the tomb. These exercises, with jan address by a prominent speaker, iwill be held in the-foremoon. At noon seouts will prepare thelr own meal, and in the afternoon a big treasure hunt will be held. in which all will participate. The Mount Ver- |non Association has granted free ad- mission to the grounds for the scouts, and special rates have been secured for the round trip by trolley. Scouts Honor Soldier.

Three youngsters are running tiddlers on thin ice, as in the immemorial custom of boyhood. They break through. The gcene is all set for three drownings. Enter three Boy Scouts. They have been taught exactly what to do in such an emergency. They proceed to do it. They push a ladder out on the ice. One scout goes in under the ice for one of the lads. All four are hauled _out, apparently none the worse for the lcy ducking. The point is that the Boy Scout has ‘tec nique.’ has been taught crafts- manship in life's emergencies.
