was a good imitation, block tin

Mr.. Harold o. Sexsmith. who Is here
with the Redpath Chautaqua organizing
and creating interest in the Boy Scout
| movement, is young man far beyond his
years in learning experience and clever
ness.
A mere lad. a resident of Fellowship
House, Chicago, a worker in the settle
| ments, and at the same time a student
of architecture in Armour institute, Mr..
Sexsmith combines a very unusual per-
sonality, one that impresses you with its
force and fineness, and makes you admire
| the young man who has the ambition and
the determination to make of himself
something to be proud of, and at the same
time a useful adjunct to his fellow men.
Yesterday morning saw the first attempt
on the part of Mr. Sexsmith to organize
the Boy Scout movement in the chautau-
qua course here.

he was telling me about the work yester-
day afternoon. Birmingham. am told.
has about 10 troops of Boy Scouts, which
isn't nearly enough for place of its size.
However. I hope to create such enthusi-
asm during this week of the chautauqua
that there will be many more to its credit
before the year is out. With a popula-
ton of over 10000. it seems to- me Bir
mingham should have a fine showing of
Boy Scouts.
Particularly Is the organization a ben
eft to a place like Birmingham" said
Mr. Sexsmith "since there are so many
accidents abotu here in the furnaces and
mills and industrial plants, and the Boy
Scouts are trained to do first aid work in
all emergency cases, such as would occur
In those places"
Just what is the nature OF the work
of the Scout master?" asked.
I'm Chicago" said Mr.. Sexsmith, ''as
Scout master of the national organization
