Two hundred and fifty Scouts of this city were in attendancé at Seout Rally held last evening in the Grammar school auditorium to listen to the address of Field Commissione Herbert 1, Shaffer of New York. Mr, Shaffer proved to be a speaker of no ‘mean ability and he Kkept the Scouts highly enthused duiing his ad- dress, the Scouts breaking out into applause several times. His speech proved to be educational as well ay interesting. He had a heart to heart talk with the boys telling them why they should Be good Scouts. Scout Master Stanley Sheldon in- troduced A. F. Corb president of the local §cout council, as the chair- man of the evening. Mr. Corbin made a few short introductorfy remarks telling what excellent ments are being made for the boys-— the future citizens—by having them affliated with such an excellent organ as the Boy Scouts. Mr. Corbid gave a graphic description of conditions ax they existed when he was a.boy and compared theni.to present day condi- tions, telling why such a movement as the Boy Scouts was a necessity.’ Mr. H. E. Shaffer, from the Nation- al headquarters in New York city, was introduced by the chairman as the principal speaker of ‘the evesing. i Mr. Shaffer.arose and made his way to the front of the platform where { he gave the boys the “Scout salute,' the | accomplish- | his opportunities. A Scout is brave and does what he knows is right, in spite of jeers and threats. A Scout is clean in body and throught, stands for clean speech, clean sport, clean habits, and travels Wwith a clean crowd. Finally, a Scout is reverent toward God. He is faithful in his re- ligious duties, and respects the con- victions of others in matters of cus- tom and religion. A Means to An End. “Fvery step in the scouting pro- gram is but a means to this end. The variety and interesi, as well as the practical knowledge insured by the- tenderfoot, second class and first class ‘tests are, after ail, but a means for holding the interest of the boy, pledged to the Scout cath and law, under such leadership as will bring about character development. Like- wise the whole scheme of merit badges is primarily for this same purpose. The form of troop organiza- tion, the Scout master and his as- gistants, the local.council, and indeed the national council and all of its officers, are also but a means to this end. .This character fests . itself in chivalry, loyalty, citizenship. The Three Classcs of E “The Boy Scouts of america after | development manij- health, efficiency. patriotism and good couts, | the local” Scouts reciprocating. “What the Boy Scouts Mean to the “was the topic of his addresz. Tht speaker gave the history of the organization of the Scouts formed in :Englund’in 1907 up to the present { day. The Boy Scouis of America was | in corporated in 1910. There are { at present 10,000 men in this coun- try working as Scout masters while {about 14,0000 are interested, in the | { movement. ‘There ‘are about 300,000 Scouts enrolled in America. While ! are about 2,000,000 Scouts in | the world. Among the results of the Scouts is | the “'Swat the FIy” campaign which was inaugurated by the organization | and latter adopted by others. At the National Scout meeting held in the White House on February 11, President Wilgon said the following of the Scoyts: *“There is one rule in the world and it applies tg' all professions! that is, that vou are expected to make good. No excuses are allowed in this schovl of life. The only way to make gond | i¢ to ‘keep awake.

THa' means that he must not tell « lie, cheat, or deceive, but keep every trust sacred. A Scout is loyal to all whom loyaliy is due, including his Scout leader, his home, his paren and his country. Furthermore, Scout is helpful, prepared at all times to save life, help injured persons, and do at least one good ‘turn daily. A Scout is friendly to all—a brother to every other Scout. A Scout is cour- teous, especially to women, .children and old people, and he must not take any pay for being courteous. A Scout is kind to animals and does not kil or hurt any living creature need- lessly. A Seout is obedient. is cheerful, even when facihg hard- ship and drudgery. A Scout is thrifty.
