HISTORIC SPOTS ON
SECOND MASS HIKE
DueIing Ground of Early Pa
triots Lies on Route of Walk
Through Hills.

Mass hike No. will come off next
Saturday. and the start will be made
from Fifteenth and II streets. where a
will be easy to reach from any part
of the city. 1t will be led by Acting
Scoutmaster Chauncey Hackett, of Troop
No. %, and he promises to set a pace
that will take the kinks out of the legs
of all those who take part.
The first part of the hike will lie out
over the old Bladensburg road, across
the District line, and the Anacostia
river to Bladensburg, Md, and then on
to Hyattsville. Here the mixers will
strike the road to the east Of the Blad
ensburg route and follow 1t back to
where Rhode Island avenue touches the
District line, which will be the end of
the official hike. Cars for the city may
be taken here, but Of course there will
be nothing to prevent the extra am
bilious from footing it all the way
back to the city.
This route will be little longer than
that laid out for yesterday, but the
going will be good most of the way,
and ought not to give even the newest
tenderfoot any real difficulty.
One Of several points Of interest to be
passed will be the old dueling ground
where patriots of the early days were
pair Of Misunderstanding pistols. The
route also lies past the National Train
ing School for Boys. ones Of the best
institutions Of its kind to be found any
where. There is much open country to
be seen. and brisk walk among the
Maryland hills will do more to put an
edge on a boys appetite than all the
prescriptions ever written.

SEA SCOUTS LEARN
STAR-MAK|NG ART
Commander Dempf Opens Old
Ditty Bag For Benefit Of
Boys At Battalion Drill.

Everything a sailor should know.
from navigating five-masted wind
jammer to half-soling a sea boot, Is be-
ing taught the Washington Sea Scouts
now attending the naval battalion drill,
their latest instruction being in sail
or's embroidery" given personally by
Commander Dempf, who last Monday
night taught the Scouts how to make
the stars that every sailor wears or the
crown Of his cap.
1t was after the sails had been taken
from the masts of the thirty-foot
whaleboat, and stored for the winter,
and the drills and semaphore work had
ben completed, that Commander Dempf
brought out his "ditty bag" which he
said he had not opened in twenty years,
and showed the boys the tricks a true
salt can do with a needle. The bag con-
tanned two copper embroidery hops,
made by the commander himself in his
early days afioat, several spools Of silk
with the ends Of the spools cut to form
patterns for the various stars. an as
sortment Of needles, several pieces Of
chalk, and q number of other odds and
ends.
The intricacies of an eight-pointed
star were first shown to the boys. and
by the time the start for home was
made Fred Reed, of Troop IL, had COM
pleted star In four colors that would
do credit to a first mate. Commander
Dempf has asked that all Scouts rring
a needle, a set of two embroidery hoops.
and two or three spools of embroidery
floss to the drill next Sunday after
noon. when he promises to show them
some tricks with a needle that their
mothers and sisters never heard of. He
will furnish the cloth himself.
This instruction will be continued
whenever the weather keeps the Scouts
indoors, and they are all urged not to
miss il.
