Bow Scouts.


the Boy Scout movement is being made
an important feature of the Young Mems
Christian Association work In Burlington
county. Already the boys at Moorestown,
Pemberton and Hainesport are being or
ganized into patrols by the various young
men who have applied for scout masters
certificates. Two patrols In Mount Holly
haYe been organized. The patrol leaders
are Edward Matlack and Baker Sharpe.
jerome Harris has charge of the two
patrols and expects to receive this week,
his scout masters certificate from the
International headquarters at New York.
County Secretary Otis B. Read is assist
ing other leading boys Of the local Y. M.
G. A, who are interested In outdoor life.
in organizing patrols In other parts of the
town. The Boy Scouts of America is a
movement especially for recreation, but 1t
Is also educational in that 1t seizes the
boys character In its red-hot stage of en-
thusiasm and yields it into the right stage
and encourages and develops its individ
uality so that the boy may become good
man and valuable citizen for our country
in the immediate future instead of be-
Ing a waste Of Gods material. There
is no military meaning attached to the
name scouting" Boy Scouting COM
prises the attributes of colonial frontiers
men in the way Of resourcefulness, self
reliance and the other qualities which
make them men among men. There is no
intention on the part of the leaders Of the
Y. M. @. A. Of making the lads into SOL
diers or of teaching them blood-thfrsti-
ness. but under patriotism they will be
taught that citizen must be prepared to
take his share among his fellows in the
defence of the homeland against aggres-
sion, In return for the safety and freedom
enjoyed by him as an inhabitant. The
expense In connection with the work ia
being kept down to minimum and prac-
tically every boy will be requested to earn,
in some way, his own funds In connection
with the activities. Prominent business
men and our leading educators are behind
this movement, which promotes honor,
loyalty to ones country, friendship, court.
eousness, obedience to parents and others
in authority, helpfulness to others, thrift
and cheerful spirit under all circum
stances.

Lost.-Nine well-known sluggers from
Mount Holly, these sluggers are those
that made certain team in this county
freeze" in the sun, and the thermometer
registered SO degrees in the shade, last 4th
of July
The base ball enthusiasts of Mount
Holly are becoming restless. "Are we
going to have team this yearf" This
question has been asked by many. Well,
1t does seem funny that the managers have
not recognized before this, if they expect
to have team. Why not have a meeting
In some building and invite the fans to at
tend and renew interest.
The Mount Holly High School Athletic
Association, member of the South Jersey
High School Athletic League, has arrang-

Representatives from Delanco, River

nesday to take action on the formation of
a League. 1t was decided to call this the
Delaware River Base Ball League and to
play series Of four games with each team,

Short weights and measures haveIbeen
attracting much attention recently and
during the past week disclosures have
been made in neighboring cities which
give conclusive evidence that the con-
sumner has not been getting what he paid
for. A bill has passed the New Jersey
House of Assembly providing for fine and
imprisonment for the person who is con-
victed of selling by short weight or
measure. 1t has long been suggested that
there should be public scales in every
town on which merchandise should be
weighed before delivery. Any sugges-
ton of this kind sometimes brings out a
protest of indignation from the merchant
who thinks it is an insinuation against his
honesty. On the contrary he should well
come any such measure, for If he is CIV
ing full weight he would have nothing to
fear and should be glad to have such a
fact made public. In the city disclosures
some Of those found guilty of giving short
weight were merchants of the highest
reputation.

As an echo of the recent extensive dis.
play In Philadelphia of crepe-draped
American flags In honor of the late Bishop
Whitaker and Archbishop Ryan lodge
of the Knights of Malta In that city has
petitioned Representative Moore to pre-
sent to Congress bill making 1t unlawful
to drape the flag in mourning. Laws al
ready exist to guard "Old Glory" against
dissertation and they meet the hearty ap-
proval of all patriotic citizens. 1t is not
easy to comprehend, however, how the
draping of the flag as token of honor to
the memory of distinguished public fig.
ure is to be regarded as an act of desecra-
ton or disrespect.

As 1t has been practically settled that
the County Boards of Taxation are to con-
tinue in business for another year candi-
dates are springing up in various sections.
Those known to date are Fred W. Taylor,
of Bordentown; Joseph B. Lamson, OF
Bass River; Jesse Lucas, Florence; and
William F. Morgan, of Palmyra. Mr..
Morgan is reported to have said that
he knew the people wanted these
Boards abolished but II continued he
wished to be member. There will prob
ably be others who will be willing to serve
but they have not yet announced them
selves.

Little Notes of Interest.

| Assemblyman Pikaart, of Passaic. has
introduced bill which provides for the
election of township building inspector.
This would be good move, and would
ensure inspection of buildings used for
public purposes which are now entered
with more or less doubt as to their safety.
/ Assemblyman White has introduced a
bill in the Assembly which provides that
the boards of Freeholders in each county
shall declare the amount necessary to be
raised for the offices of surrogate, register,
county clerk and sheriff. This measure is
to get by statute the ends that were sought
to be reached through the communication
of the county clerk to the Board of Free
holders and which solicitor Rigg declared
would be illegal.
Interest in school matters In Burlington
county has recently been awakened. The
Board of Education In North Hanover
township has decided to hold an annual
meeting, and will elect an entire new
board of nine members This will be the
first annual meeting to be held for two
years. In Mansfield township the recent
flag incident, where two inch flag was
tackled to school door, will be the sub
ject of discussion and there will be likely
to be something doing owing to that
transaction.
