San Diego Exposition

San Diego, Call1ornla' 10 w 0.0
the reproduction of the caravels
of Columbus; the Santa Marla'
the Pinta and the Nina, and the
harbor of San Diego is to be the
first one on the Pacific coast OF
the United States to hail them'
after they have passed through
the Panama canal.
These reproductions OF the
caravels of Columbus, construct
ed for the Worlds Columbian
Exposition in Chicago in 1863
have been in Jackson Park, IN
Chicago ever since that time, but
on the 18th of the present month
they left the jackson Park lagoon
and really started on their long
journey to the Pacific coast
They were first taken to the dry-
dock at South Chicago, where
they will remain until they are
made entirely seaworthy.
From Chicago the little fleet
will proceed to Boston, and there
they will tie up for the winter. In
the spring they will be manned by
crews of students from Harvard
and begin their long cruise. 1t is
planned to skirt the Atlantic,
stopping at San Salvador, the
first land discovered by Colum'
bus, and then on to Panama and
through the canal.
Doubtless the little vessels will
be compelled to stop at some
Pacific port on the west coast OF
Central America or Mexico for
supplies, but the first stop on
American soil, after their passage
through the canal, will be at San
Diego.
Andrew Kaul, of Boston, a Har
ward man, is behind the move
ment to bring the caravals to the
Pacific coast for the exposition
in 1915. He has furnished tht
Jackson Park authorities q suffi'
oient bond to insure their return
to Chicago. Winfield Hogaboon
! OF the San Diego exposition has
taken up the matter of entertain
ment Of the crews of the ships
while they are in San Diego har'
Dor, with MIR. Kaul, and has beer
assured that the fleet will stop il
San Diego harbor for q sufficien
time to permit of proper and fit
ting ceremonies in connection
with the Panama California Ex'
position in San Diego.

Scout Commissioner Martin yesterday
made public details of the plan which has
been adopted for the holding of merit
badge examinations. According to this
plan such examinations will be conducted
only by persons who are experts in their
respective lines. The services OF a num-
Der of government experts have been Sc
cured as examiners. Below are some or
the recommendations of an exhaustive re-
port made on the subject of merit badge
examinations by n committee Of which
Scoutmaster Irwin G.. Priest is chair
the suggestions of this committee will be
followed.
After citing the need of competent per-
sons to conduct merit badge examina-
tons. persons who are expert In their
particular line and therefore can COM
mand the respect of those who take the
tests. the report concludes with the fol-
lowing recommendations:
We recommend that the supervision

ton De piaceu IN the hands OF q OOdIO
composed of the president of the local
council, the scout commissioner and three
scoutmasters. appointed annually by the
scout commissioner. and that the board
be called the Board of Scout Education.
The duties of this board should be-:
"(a) To interpret the requirements pub
lished by the National Council and II
necessary confer with the National
Council in this regard
'(b) To determine the method Of hold
ing such examination.
''(c> To estab ish and uphold high
standard of instruction.
ID To maintain a constant and uni
form standard in the examination. guaran-
teeing both thoroughness and fairness.
''(e) To obtain by personal solicitation
the volunteer services Of experts Of high
character to serve as instructors and ex-
aminers.
I'VE recommend that there be est2b-
lished definite corps Of instructors and
examiners To be known as the Boy
Scout Faculty These instructors should
be not merely competent to give the
slight instruction necessary but should
be many times more than competent. we
should grasp here the splendid oppor.
tunity of getting the boy personally &C.
quainted with the masters who may aid
him to choose his life work. It Is the
opportunity to do the boy a much greater
service than merely assisting him Il

auirements. We hope to mitigate the
widespread condition Of square pegs in

naturally will be not merely experts, but
men Of character. sincerely interested In
the welfare Of the boy scouts.
Owing to the peculiar local conditions
the District Of Columbia Council has
the opportunity to set the whole country
an example of what should be done to put
In concrete. tangible form the ideal set
forth in the preceding paragraph
1.-THE examiners should not be scout
masters II any other arrangement is pos
sible. There is no objection to scout
masters being members of the faculty Of
instructors.
1--WE recommend that the scout commits
sioner's ONCE keep double index Of this
faculty. one by instructors names and
the other by subjects. on cards. as SUBJ
mitted with this report. Each registra-
ton card should indicate the extent of
the service which the instructor or exam
liner has volunteered. l. e., the number of
appointments he Is willing to make each
month. The office should have a check
scheme to insure that no greater demand
Is made upon him.

while there took many merit badge

Norris made good records in all the ex-
arninations which he undertook while at

proven a stumbling block for many
scouts. After passing the examination
in athletics. life saving. first aid. per-
