GRAND RALLY
OF BOY SCOUTS
OF PENSACOLA
FIFTY FROM THEM BRAVED THE
WEATHER LAST NIGHT AND
PARTICIPATED IN MEETING AT
Y. NJ. c. A.

Fifty scouts braved the weather to
attend q great rally at the Y. NJ. c. a.
last night TO line up the summer ac-
tlVlt1es. Never was so much boyish
activity bottled UP in so small COM
pass, yet as obedience is one of the
main law Of scouting, at the command
of Scout Commissioner Mcdowell or
der prevailed. After showing the in
terest that is being taken in the scout
movement throughout the country
the respect which business men are
having for Boy Scouts as worthy en-
ployes, Mr.. Mcdowell urged the loyal
scouts present to be true to their
vows and make the uniform and the
order mean something to Pensacola.
Under the reorganization. two prin-
cipal tropos are ordered: No. / I'M
der Scoutmaster Guy S. Williams, and
No. 2 under w. 3. Wright, Jr. Each
troop VIII he suhdivided into about six
patrols under competent junior lead
ers. Both scoutmasters gave short
talks upon their summer plans and
were enthusiastically applauded by the
boys.
Besides the formal organization o!
the troops and the patrols. special
leaders were appointed to direct special
activities. Ernest Bancroft for camp
ing and baseball Sam Clark for social
stunts, and Sidney Davis for bicycle
hikes. Messrs. Bancroft and Clark
lined up their subjects and showed
themselves masters Of their specialties
Mr.. Cunningham was called upon for q
scout story and gave Tad Shelton
Second Glass Scout" perhaps the hest
story yet written about a real boy and
a scout
Scoutmaster Williams announced
that optimistic lemonade would be
served, sweetencd with waters, ap-
timism, he said, being the ability "a
make ade from lemons received.
After refreshments, the separate
troops met under their respective
scoutmaste.s and planned their base
ball teams for later league work and
possible challenge of other hoy teams
in the city, summer camps hikes, etc
Because of the most excellent line
up and spirit shown in this truly rep
resentative gathering, the scouts VII

camp will doubtless be established
and hence when the fall season oren;
there will be no reorganization neces'

The Smile
In the Mirror.

The world is like looking glass;
If you smile in it, it smiles back; IL
you frown. it frowns.
You may hear it said that one Of
the conditions Of life you cannot make
or alter is environment-that it is
fixed, inf1exible, and that you are its
Slave. That is a lie.
He who thinks the world is full Of
good people and kindly blessings is
much richer than he who thinks the
contrary. Each mans imagination
largely peoples the world for himself.
Some live in a world peopled with
princes of the royal blood; some in a
world of pauperism, crime and priva-
ton. The choice is yours.
Psychology has pretty well estab-
lished the theory that ghosts are crea-
arions CT the subjective mind-and
trouble finding is very like ghost-see
ing. You see frightful COLLINS in life,
which. Il properly traced, will be found
to hegin and end in your own mind.
Refuse to believe in them, and they
cease 10 exist.
A melancholy thought that fixes
itself upon ones mind ought to have
as prompt doctoring as pronounced
physical disease.
1t is for you to say whether the
mirror of life shall return to You smiles
or frowns. 1t is for you to say whether
you will crouch in the glooms, the
companion Of hateful COLLINS, or stride
in the bright sunshine, seeing smiles
and catching shreds of song.

who is too worthless to earn his own
living to cut out the cigars and confine
his current expenses to his actual
earnings?
There may be some legal ground for
the claim that a Woodworking wife
owes her husband a living, but it can
hardly be successfully contended either
in law or common sense that she owes
him cigars and change to jingle in
his pocket.
But, a1asl such is the sort of hus-
band who most commonly demands
luxuries, and again, alas! such is the
sort of wife who most commonly in
dulges him.

the gist of opinion just rendered by
