During the past vear reports indi- cate that something lfke 25 brush and woods fires have been discovered and put out in the vieinity of Washington ! sroups of Scouts. Practically all of these were started by careless campers without Scout training or Scout appreciation of the danger of fire in the woods. Notable in this orls has_besn the record of Troop 3 of the Y. M. H. A, Troops 52 and of Chevy Chase, Troop 63 of Cal-| Baptist Church, Troops 42 and nt and Troop 100 ' Central Y. M. C. A v Scouts are members of the o cnter : Mar- by truck outmaster di: one va | big crusade to educate the public and lessen the destruction caused hy fire. Berkelny, Calif., Scouts have re- cently secured the signatures of hun- dreds of people to the following prom- ise: “To save growing forests for crowing children, I promise to do everything {n my power to Keep fires out of our great wealth of forests and watersheds. By signing, one becomes automatically a member of the ‘Stop { Forest Fires' Association.’ | A fire insurance company for which . C. couts saved thou- sands of dollars has expressed its ap- ation in a practical manner. Three 300-candle power Coleman lamps, accompanied by a letter of thanks, arrived at the boys' camp shortly after the spectacular good | turn. ~ Following a small loss on a building near Jamestown, the local fire manager advised the company that the fire might have resulted in total loss but for the alertness of outs encamped nearby. The boy ustomed to daily fire drills, | sponded with prompt and effective co- operation when the call for help came. When a fire of unknown origin bit into the Hallock barn near Wayne, Mass., Mrs. Hallock rushed into the blazing structure in _an attempt to save an automobile. Her efforts were futile and she was badly burned about the arms. Scouts encamped in the vicinity rushed to the rescue. The fire had gained such headway that the barn was burned to the ground in a short time, but the Scouts prevented the blaze spreading to the house. The fire fighters also gave Mrs. Hallock first aid. Twelve-year-old Scout John Gil- martin of Allerton, Mass., styled by admirers the “hero of his gang and the neighborhood,” is another ener- getic fire fighter. John was recently down the street with com- anions when smoke was discovered | | coming from the cellar window of a residence. The other boys ran to a fire box, but John went directly to the | fire. With calmness and speed he at- tached the line of hose to the faucet, | water and began to drown the flames. Despite heavy smoke, he remained at his post until | apparatus arrived. But as the boy had put out the blaze, the firemen had nothing to do. Scouts of Hanover, Pa., trained to fight fire menaces in the wooded lands , recently earned the praise of State officials for combating forest fires that swept Pigeon Hill. In a recent conflagration 30 Scouts spent 24 hours on burning timber lands, preventing the spread of flames over hundreds of wooded acres. ery troop in Washington will re- joice to know that through the ef- forts of Commissioner Barry Mohun and Dr. Paul Bartsch, chairman of the camping committee, Sergt.

High tribute was paid to the cour- age of American youth by Veterans of Foreign Wars at their recent con- vention in Tulsa, Okla., when Brig. Gen. John H. Dunn, commander-in- chief of the V. F. W., pinned on the chest of a tenderfoot Scout of Ana- cortes, Wash., the medal for heroism. The hero 1s Scout Clyde Holeman. The story of the boy’s courageous act follows: Billy Jason and a group of friends in swimming near Anacortes, . on a hot vacation day. The boys, all good swimmers, decided to push off trom shore on a raft, with a diving board attached, Warning was given that no one unable to swim should play on it. Jason, a novice in swimming, however, kept hix place on the raft. The boys soon had the raft anchored and started to and swim ashore. Presently Billy took his turn, Immediately the lad began to sink. He had gone under twice betore Holeman heard his call for help. Before Holeman reached him, Billy sank the third time. But | Holeman found Billy and brought him to shore in safety. The Scout then applied respiration to the boy and revived him. Troop 8 of All Soul's Episcopal Church returned Sunday from a short camping trip to Glymont, Md., where they established a troop retreat. They made the trip by steamer and dis- covered, on arrival, that vandals had broken 'into their property and con- fiscated most of thelr possessions. Like the resourceful Scouts they are, however, they made the most of con. ditions, passed many Scout tests and returned home happy. In the near fu- ture the troop, with the assistance of | the scoutmaster, Willlam Westlake, { will move a log ‘cabin onto the camp site. They have named the camp after Colin H.” Livingstone, former presi- dent of the Boy Scouts of America. They have already *leveled off the ground, built a cooking crib, erected the groups in industrial art, lamp shade making and millinery, the regiss |2 flag pole, etc. Troop 52 of All Saints’ Episcopal activities led by | rize and Fleld | by C.

SIX HELD MAGIC NUMBER BY COMPOSER LEE FALL Producer of Comic Opera Experi- ences “Flop” in Adopting Three-Syllable Title. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, October 3.—In Berlin the- atrical and musical circles an interest- ing story is circulated concerning the success of Leo Fall, the Austrian com- poser, whose recent death in Vienna removed one of the world's foremost creators of comic opera. “The Dollar Princess” was his best known work to the American theatergoers. Fall frequently told friends that his op- eretta to be successful must have title of six syllables. Once he broke this rule by choosing a title of three syl- lables. “Der Rebell,” the produc- tion, in the parlance of Broadway. proved a ‘“flop,” and thereafter Fall was more firmly convinced than ever that six was his magic number. Therefore when his producer tried to change the title of “Die Studenting- " STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., OCTOBER 4, D. A. R.

By the Associated Press. ' BERLIN, October 3.—The German cousin of the “fitney” is forcing down taxicab fares in Berlin. Since the stabilization of the mark the cost of taxi riding has been notoriously high in the German capital, but the intro- duction of the small auto is proving a corrective for this. These smaller cars, although less palatial and roomy than some of the big limousines which have been doing taxi service on Berlin streets, are found to get the traveler to his destination just as quickly. The “small autos” came in with the announcement that they would cost just 75 per cent of the fares charged for the larger cars, and as a result the big taxis were soon seen standing idle at most of the parking places while their smaller competi- tors did a lucrative business. Owners of the larger cars soon followed and announced a cut of 25 per cent. Spain is aiding her home builders by loans, having appropriated 182,000,000 pesetas for the purpose.
