 MT H. Laurance Eddy, the Scout com missioner in Baltimore, says that one day last summer he took some of the boys on hike to the country, and after a while, missing many of the youngsters, he went in search of them. He found one lying flat on the ground watching. and this chap motioned him to get down and keep quiet. Directly he found there was a circle of Scouts all lying fiat, and only occasionally raising a cautious head to watch a mother bird feeding her young and protecting her while she brought long and luscious worms to fill the gaping mouths of her brood.
 There was day when every time a boy saw live thing he threw stone as inyoluntarily as he breathed The Scout movement is training the boys to protect the birds and beasts. not to hurt them.
 It's not military organization. Mir. Eddy says that the Boy Scouts have taken the beneficial things from all the organizations for boys of the last l5o years and combined them. To give boys firearms was not considered desirable by the organizers. and so they substituted staffs for the more dangerous weapons and contented themselves with insulting in the boys the military virtues, such as honor, loyalty obedience and patriotism. The uniform, the patrol. the troops and the drill are not for military tactics, they are for the unity the harmony and the rvhthm of spirit that boys learn in scouting.

 And he was a Boy Scout simply obey ing two of the rules of his order The first of these is Be prepared." the sec ond. Do a good turn
 The Boy Scout Is expected to keep his head when accidents happen he is ex- pected to be prepared with remedies and to render first aid with skill and prompt ness.
 He is expected to do good turn every day of his life, too. The way he remem- bers to do this is that it is recalled to his mind when he ties his necktie in the morning As he makes good turn with its end he is reminded of the other good turn that he must make during the day
 As he unties his necktie at night he is reminded to ask himself what he has done for some one else.
 And there is good story of a con scientous scout who, upon untying his necktie at bedtime once. was paralyzed at the thought that not a single good deed was to his credit that day He thought and he thought, but no old lady had he assisted across the street he had not helped anyone in distress, nor done a service of any sort.
 And just as he had begun to despair there came to him from the direction of the kitchen the sound of a slight snap It sounded like the mouse trap. and so out ran the scout and found a palpitating mouse in the trap. and called the cat and allowed that benevolent animal to quiet the little creatures fears in one vast sulp. and went to bed having retrieved
