has explained. II have spent SONS
time in the collection of data upon the
location of this early trail, and have
been very much pleased to notice
that In the first land surveys Of coun-
ties westward from Davis county that
the government surveys indicated the
trail as they did other important land
marks. They denominate it the Nor

made before there were many we'll

This trail went in a generally west

These points were where the
travel, from the ferries of the Des
Moines river joined the Mormon trail,

It is a most interesting fact that when
the railroads paralleled the state it
practically cut off the travel along the
old Mormon trail or the California

TO BOOM BOY
SCOUT MOVEMENT
Five Travelling Secretaries VIII be
Used to Help in Forming Local
Councils.

The executive committee of the
Boy Scouts of America is planning to
put five travelling secretaries in the
field this rail-. These men, who have
shown ability in forming local coun-
ellis of the scout organization and
skill in handling boys will be dis
tributed throughout the country. Their
local organizations and scout activities
and also the extension of the scout
movement.
They will visit different cities and
towns studying the scout councils and
the work of the boys They will help
in the up-building Of the local council
and in strengthening it in the COM
munity by bringing in men Of different
religious faiths. They will study the
methods of the Scout Masters and
give them instructions and sugges-
lions, where necessary. They will take
special interest in the boys them
selves outlining scout stunts fer them
and giving them some helpful talks
They will be the representatives of
the National Council in the field and
will be supposed to exercise corrective
measures where untoward influences
seem to be injuring the Scout move
ment.
The appointment of these five secre-
taries undoubtedly will give addi-
tional impetus to the Scout movement.
In the last year and a half the organ
ization of patrols and troops through
out the country has gone on so rap
idly that no more than a formal SUI
pervision of them by the national
headquarters has been possible The
requests Of boys to become scouts,
applications for information regarding
che scout work and the appointment
of scout masters kept the staff in the
headquarters busy up to January L.
In addition the great growth of the
organization demanded many things
At the time that James E. West be-
came executive secretary, the board
realized the necessity of new man
ual new scout activities new badges,
a National Court of Honor to award
badges for heroic deeds and activities.

In England had to be Americanized.
All these things have been accomplish
ed.
The members Of the executive board
and of the editorial board and Sec
rotary West held many meetings
working out plans and supervising the
manual. Many writers have been
busy on the manual. The staff of the
national headquarters was enlarged
and by strenuous work many import
ant details were settled by the lead
ers of the movement. The executive
work of the organization is thoroughly
systematized The next step is the
thorough supervision of the local
councils and the scout activities
Travelling secretaries will be neces-
sary.
The task will require the expendi-
ture of twenty-five thousand dollars
in one year. The money for the main
tenance of the national headquarters
thus far has been advanced by phii-
anthropists who believe in the great
good that can be accomplished for the
boy through scout activities. For the
work in the fed it is hoped to raise
money from other sources. The cam
paign will be carried on by finance
committee of wealthy men, every one
of whom has promised his personal
attention to the work.
Among the members of the com
mittee are: John Sherman Hoyt,
chairman; Mortimer L. Schiff, bank
er; D. Everett Massey, August Belmont,
George D. Pratt, Char4es d. Stickney,

1t was there that the commander

too that he showed the naval officers

peated engagements with the Russians
Togo suffered severe losses in his
own command Most of these, howev-

and not even Toxic knew that their
hero was fighting with a crippled
force.
When the ruin of the Russian fleet
In the Pacific was complete, Togo ap-
peared at Toxic for few days to re-
port to the emperor. One day he dis
appeared. He remained hidden from
the world for four months Then he
reappeared with his fleet and ami

fleet he knew was coming
Admiral Togo chose that the battle
should be fought on his terms, and
not on those of the enemy. He DELHI
erately staked everything on the
chance that the Russians would pass
through the Straits of Esushima on
their way to Vladivostok. Just with
out this passage he waited the arrival
of Admiral Rojesvensky. So accurate

the battle would begin at two o'clock

fleet, just as the firing was about to
begin

Ponds upon the result Of this engage

For two days, during May q and

conclusion, Togo sent the following
message, marked by the religious
spirit which is characteristic of the
man:
by the grace of heaven and the
help of God our combined squadron
succeeded in nearly annihilating the
first, second and third squadrons of
the enemy
From this battle he returned, to re-
ceive unprecedented honors from the
emperor and the nation. Rewarded
with the post of Chief of Staff of the
Japanese navy, his mind and genius
have been the controlling spirit of the
advance of the Japanese navy ever
since. His popularity has never waned,
and he is today greater hero In
Japan than when he returned to To-
kio fresh from the greatest naval vic
tory of modern times.

When the Mormons Were Driven Gu.

Through Southern Iowa on
the Way to Utah.

When the Corn Belt highway tour

Hall told a Hawk-Eye reporter that
the new road is to follow closely the
old Mormon trail. 1t may not be gener-

up their long Journey to Utah the
caravan passed through southern

Curator T. r. Harlan, of the State
Historical department. is going to
make an automobile trip over the
route of the Mormon trail Mr.. Harlan
was In Burlington last winter to de-
liver an address when the old Zion
tablet was placed on the Grand opera
house building.
Mr.. Harlan expects to secure much
valuable information on his trip
across southern Iowa.
The old Mormon trail is lost in
many places over the state by reason
of the fact that after the coming of
the steam roads travel over the trail
practically stopped. Then farmers cut
UP the country into fields and the trail
was plowed up and converted into
crop-producing land. BY the use OF
early maps the party will be able to
travel over the trail for great dis
lance and always will be able to stay
within half mile of it in the counties
where it is lost in fields. Curator Aid
