The Boy Scouts of America through its executive board, has authorized the undertaking of a scout memorial pilgrimage to the grave of Theodore Roosevelt on October 29th. They also have voted to encourage the celebra- tion of Roosevelt’s birthday, (Oct. 27) among scouts throughout the country in co-operation with local councils and with the Roosevelt Memorial as- sociation. The late colonel was intensely in- terested in scouts and was himself an ideal boy hero, beloved and admired by every scout and honored during his life time by the title of chief scout citizen. The pilgrimage to Oyster Bay is to be an annual affair and will be under Marcella Coughlan, Mary Maguire, Willlam Cafferty, J‘ahn‘@assldy and Joseph Deloy. There seems to be but little opposi- tion on the part of the property hold- rs for the new road. The commission desires to have the street built with both sides agreeable and with as lit- tle expense to the town as possible. Bess avenue, a street which will con- nect with the new road, will be re- paired and the entire section will probably be re-named. It is hardly possible that work will be started this fall. However, the present street lead- ing to the plant will be repaired. Fined in Court. Joseph O@di of Bicycle street was fined in the local court yesterday by Justice Edward P.

Roosevelt's birthday will be ob- scrved in various ways by scouts throughout the country. This ob- servance will take the form of scout mass meetings or general patriotic gatherings, tree planting and dedica- tion but in all cases the objectives will be the keeping green of the memory of the Great American and the im- planting in the minds of the young- er generation the great ideals which he typified throughout his career. The national council has asked the co-operation of the Roosevelt Memo- rial association and is conferring with Hermann Hagedorn, Roosevelt's friend and biographer in formulating its plans for a nation-wide scout obser- vance of Rnosevelt's birthday.

Takes but a moment {o prepare, and saves you about $i. | IR —————— You know that pine is used in nearly all prescriptions and remedies for coughs. The reason is that pine contains several peculiar elements that have a remark- able effect in soothing and healing_the membranes of the throat and chest. Pine is famous for this purpose. R Pine cough syrups are combinations of pine and syrup. The “syrup” part is usually plain sugar syrup. To make the best pine cough remedy that money can buy, put 214 ounces of Pinex in a pint bottle, and fill up with home-made sugar syrup. Or you can use clarified molasaes, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either Way, you make a full pint—more than ou can buy ready-made for three times e money. It is pure, good and very pleasant—children take it eagerly. You can feel this take hold of & cough or cold in a way that means business. The cough may be dry, hoarse and tight, or may be persistently loose from the formation of phlegm. The cause is the same—inflamed membranes—and this Pinex and Syrup combination will stop jt—nusually in 24 hours or less. Splendid, too, for Zronchill asthma, hoarseness, or_any ordinary throat ailment. Pinex is a highly concentrated com- pound ‘of genuine Norway pine extract, and is famous the world- over for its prompt effect upon coughs. - Beware of substitutes. _Ask your druggist for “2% ounces of Pinex” with directions, and don’t accept anything else.

Theodore Roosevelt believed in the Boy Scouts of America and the Boy Scouts looked to him as their ideal. It is there- fore most fitting that they should take the leadership in commemorat- ing his birth, and it is fitting likewise that the Hoosevelt Memorial associa- *ion should give their endeavor the neartiest support. The association’s entire program is directed toward per- petuating for the youth of the coun- try the memory of Roosevelt's char- acter and achievements. 4ny assist- ance, therefore, which you may be able to render the local branches of the Boy Scout organization in ar- ranging appropriate exercises will be a service to the cause for which the association was created.” A Unique Memoiral. It has been suggested that as a unique memorial to Theodore Roose- velt the Boy Scouts might build a cabin, which should be the exact re- production of the Elkhorn ranch house on the banks of the little Mis- souri river in the Bad Lands of North Dakota in which Roosevelt lived the iife of a simple ranchman for three ad- venturous, health building years. The tlea would be to hdve the replica mude of wood supplied by thous- ands of different scout troops through- cut the country and wlll be erected by scuts under the personal super- vision of “Bill” Sewall, Roosevelt’s friend, guide and fellow ranchman.

There are at present, ac- cording to the latest figures given out by James E. West, Chief Scout Ex- ecutive, at a recent meeting of the crecutive board, 417 first class coun- cils actively in operatjon and 178 sec- ond class councils. Of the 17,738 reg- istered troops only 7,588 are not un- der ouncil. The remiaingn 10,150 be- ing regularly organized under local jurisdiction. This is a considerable increase and shows an encouraging growth of local organization, which is the ideal of scouting. In Sepptem- ber of this year the records showed 410,676 registered scouts and 119,283 scout officials. It is interesting to rote that this membership is larger than the total membership of scouts in all the other countries associated with the International. COLISEUM IS SECURED.
