HOW TO BECOME A SCOUT

Any boy who desires to affiliate him
self with the scout movement, will find
it very simple matter. He may either
organize a patrol himself by getting
ten boys in his neighborhood to join
him, or he may join patrol or troop
organized by some one else in his neigh
borhood. If he belongs to an organiza-
ton which uses the Hawaiian Boy Scout
scheme as part OF its instruc ion, it
will, Of course, be unnecessary for him
! either 10 form or join a separate patrol.
To become scouts or patrol leaders.
boys must be between ten and eighteen
years Old. Superior officers must be
eighteen or over The consent of the
| boys parents must always be obtained.
| The unit of the system is patrol
OF ten boys, ten patrols forming troop
and ten troops regiment. When a
patrol OF troop is organized, the leader
should register it with the secretary of
| the organization.
As soon as a patrol is formed, a
scout master will be instructed to train
the boys, and he will. if possible. get
the use of room as a club room for
| the troop. He will order parades on
convenient days weekly, and 90 through
the course of training with the patrol
as given in the military and scouts
manual obtainable from HEADQUARTERS
This course of trainine will take about
SIX weeks or two months. and the
manual shows everything that need b.
done.
After completing the course of in
structl0n, the boy will be examined a:
laid down in the manual. and if he
passes the necessary tests. the scou
master will apply TO the committee
who will award him the rank and baige
of second-class or frst-clase scout. &C

SCOUT LAW.

Every scout must promise on has
honor to abide by the scout law. Here
is the law:
l. A scout s honor is to be trusted.
If a scout says, ''On my honor it is
so,' that means that it is SO, just as
if he had taken a most solemn oath.
If a scout officer says to scout, ~
trust you on your honor to do this
the scout is bound to carry out the
order to the very best of his ability
If scout were to break his honor by
telling a lie or by not carrying QUE an
order when trusted by his superior, he
must cease to be scout and must hand
over his scout badge.
2. A scout is loyal to his country
and his officers. He must stick to them
through thick and thin.
3. A scout S duty is to be useful
and help others. He is to do his duty
before anything else, even though he
give up his pleasure and his comfort to
do it. When in doubt as to which of
two things to do he must ask himself:
(Which is my dutys'' In other words,
(Which is best for other peoplee'' ard
do that. He must be prepared at any
time to save life or aid injured people,
and he must do a good turn every day.
+. \ scout is friend to all. and a
brother to every other scout, no mat
ter what the other scout s social posi-
i ton. 1t scout meets another scout

,. \ scout is courteous. He is polite
to all, but especially to old people ant
| women and children and invalid ana
crlpples. He is always respectful Il

3. A scout is a friend to animals
| He should save them as far as possible
from pain, and should not Kill an,
animals unnecessarily even if it is onl,
an ant, for it Is one of Gods creatures
I. A scout obeys orders of his su

under all circumstances He must neye
