A representative of the paper explained the various pro- cesses to the children. The next day Betty wrote the following account ot her trip: “T'he Story of the Herald" “First we went into the editorial room. The reporters and cditors had their own desks. Then we went irto a room where the electrie typewriters were working. There four of them. Two had white paper and two had yellow paper. Wheh we went in, two of the (ypewriters were working. They were going very fast. They were typing news from all over the world. “Next we went into the composing rcom. First we saw the types being set. Then we saw them as they were ‘proofed.’ All these were being set in trays. “A man slid a tray on the table and put a lot of things on top of it. Then he took them off and put & piece on top of the mat. A machine pressed it down and a lot of print- ing came off on it. This was ths mat. We now started dewn stairs. There we saw them casting metal shects out of the cardboard or mat, They put the metal sheets on tha press and a lot of rolls of paper went over them. The newspaper were made. They went over the ma- chine so fact and a knife cut them and folded them. Then they sold them to the paper boys.” Many a Profound Truth Is Spoken in Jest Employes of the Connccticut com- pany are expected to be polite and as a rule live up to cxpectations.

The Boy Scouts of America have exclus- right to the term. this having been granted the organization by congress as a sort of copyright. It is one of three socicties 5o protected. Years ago there sprang up a rival organization which was known as the “United States Boy Scouts,” but this group. patently copying from the older group, ran into the ban on the use of “Boy Scout” and, with that term forbidden it, swiftly pass- ed from sight. The Girl Scouts have the permis- | sion of the male organization to the |use of the word, this being a spe- cial exception. It is also possible for firms putling out knives, flash- lights, bugles, and other cquipment to use “Boy Scout” and “scout” in the names of their products, but only with the permission of national headquarters, which grants it only after approving the articles and vir- tually accepting them as official equipment Some firms have failed to obtain this permission and have run into difficulties. A “scout” rifle was onca | placed on the market by a promi- I nent firearms manufacturing com- pany, but national headquarters threatened action and the use of | the name was stopped. While an | automobile company once prepared la “scout” model car and. after i spending thousands of dollars in pre- : paring an advertising campaign. had the machine ready to market.
