The group will leave Saturday at about 1:00 p.m. and will sail to Cow Key off the east side of Roosevelt Blvd. The Scouts have planned to re- turn about 2:00 p.m. Sunday. The camping program will include most of the outdoor requirments for the boys to advance to the next rank. Some of the requirements are camping, cooking, sailing and swimming. A good time is ex- pected -to be had by all. Check Kitchen Equipment For Efficiency The tools you use in the kitchen can make or save work. Why not check up on you rgadgets to see if they are efficient? Take knives. Does your paring knife fit your hand comfortably? Is the blade long enough to do its job, but not so long that it is out of porportion to the size of the handle? A high carbon steel blade has the best- cutting edge, but the metal stains. Stainless steel blades are easier to care for if you plan to use the knife on acid fruits which discolor steel. Then there’s the flour sifter.

Garnett. Basic Training Program Planned For Cub Leaders A basic Cub training program to be put on by the District Train- ing Committe was started at last night’s Round Table meeting for Cub leaders. Present at the meeting were re- presentatives of the following units: Pack 53, 59, 217, 251, 253, 254 and 257 and George Wood, District Commissioner. The Cubbers were shown a series of films, narrated by Roy Solan, on the fundamentals of Scouting and how to set up the Pack planning program. The next Cub Training Round Table will be held Monday, July 19, at 7:30 p.m. at the Wesley House. The theme will be The Den Meeting and The Achieve- ment Plan. All Cubbers are urged to attend. This includes Cubmast- ers and Assts., Den Mothers and Assts., Den Chiefs and Pack Committeemen. Adult Cubbers who miss part of this training program may con- to make. up the films missed, as all six training films must be studied to qualify for the basic Cub Master certificate. Also planned at the round table was a Book Drive by the Cubs for the Bookmobile. Books are wanted for children from the first. grade to the sixth grade. This drive will be conducted Wednes- day, July 21, and the Cubs are asking Key Westers to look around for children’s books they no longer want, The Cubs will pick up such books Wednesday. If you have books and no one comes to collect them, notify the nearest Cub Scout and he will glad- ly pick them up. When all books are gathered, Cmdr. Toy at SURASDEVDET will give them to the Bookmobile. It was brought out at the meet- ing that Pack 53 and 217 needs another Den Mother. Pack 254 needs a Den Mother and two Den Chiefs, and Pack 257 needs two Den Chiefs. Mrs. Doris Edwards was elected Publicity chairman. Those wish- ing to contact Mrs. Edwards about Cub Scout news can reach her by phoning 2-2062.

CAPT. GARNETT GOES TO SUB FLEET STAFF Capt. Phillip W. Garnett, USN, one of the Navy’s outstanding submarine officers, has been ord- ered from Command of Submarine Squadron Four to the staff of Com- mander Submarine Force Pacific Fleet. He will take over the im- Portant billet of Operations and Planning Officer. tact District Commissioner Wood |* UNIQUE PICTURES—Francis E. Story, DMSN, at the Airship Development Squadron, displays several of his scratch board “paintings” in the Squadron drafting office. The “paintings” are strictly black and whites, and each takes many hours of te- dious work to complete. Starting with the black scratch board and using a special type of pen to make a series of gouges, the picture, which he has pictured in his mind before-hand, begins to take shape. To set off the finished result it is framed on white mounting board. Prior to entering the naval service, Story was interested in art and designing as a hobby and has decided on continuing in that field upon expiration of his enlistment.—Of- ficial U.S. Navy Photo.

Deserting the straight and nar- row silhouette, Trigere shows al- most all skirts with some fullness, and even adds flare to coats. Her bloused-jacket suits are done with finesse, employing a pleat on each side of the back to give free- dom without bulk. The ‘‘easy” waistline is present in all models, relieving women of the necessity of wearing a cinch. Also new is the use of little fur sleeveless jackets. Jo Copeland, also in today’s lireup, shows an elegant collection of dresses and suits for women who aspire to the “‘best-dressed” lists. She highlights sumptuous fab- ric and dramatic color combina- tions and stars, as usual, in her group of cocktail fashions. Davidow, famous for town-and- country tweeds, lives up to the reputation of the house with a col- orful, handsome collection featur- ing belted short jackets and pleated skirts with coordinated blouses of tissue faille.

WHIPPLE, M.D. inative stories of little children, but how about the downright lies of a 10-year-old? At 10 a child should know the tween what’s true and what isn’t. Don’t get upset if your youngs- ter tells an occasional fib to get out of an embarrassing situation. You probably do it yourself sometimes, But if he lies regularly and fre- quently, it’s time we looked into the reasons why he needs to lie. If a youngster has lived in a reasonably good home where hon- esty is the way of life, he knows that lying is wrong. Probably he lies, not because he is naturally deceitful, not because he doesn’t care what you think, but because he feels he needs to lie to make life livable. Tom was a good boy—the old- est of four. His father thought the world of him, played ball with him on weekends, talked over his school work, helped him now and then with his chores. It looked like the most ideal of relationships. All of a sudden Tom’s Dad be- gan to have doubts about some of the reports Tom was bringing home. At first Dad put his doubts out of his mind. If Tom said he’d been made captain of the base- ball team, then he had, that’s all. But little by little Dad was forced to recognize that the A on the report card had been changed, that last Saturday morning was spent in a class for failing students, instead of on the athletic field as Tom had said.
