Boy Scouts Are
Having an Outing

the morning at Z, At o'clock they
are called from their slumbers and
by seven must be dressed, washed
and ready for breakfast. The boys
are taking daily hikes and this,
Tuesday afternoon, enjoyed a visit
to the country club.
Swimming, ball playing. telling
stories and doing the many numer-
Gus tasks make the day go quickly.
Each boy must perform some duty.
One patrol must cut the wood, an
other carry the water and four
boys must help the cook.
The camp is located on a creek
and a small house is close. Rev.
and Mrs. Hart are occupying the
house and have general charge Of
the camp. The boys are all we'll
and so far none of them appear to
be homesick.

CITY WILL COLLECT
$500, IN ROAD TAX.

If by any chance the city officials
fail to send you a notice before
September first to pay your road
tax OF IS you won't have to pay it..
But if you do get a notice, and fail
to pay within thirty days trouble is
in store for you. Last year three
men were arrested under the pro-
visions of a new law put in force
then, and we're fined SIG each, in
addition to the road tax.
The city derived $500 from the
tax last year. and will get about the
same amount this year. The money
goes into the street and alley fund.
The law governing its collection
makes it easy for delinqeunts to be
brought into court, where the old
poIl tax was extremely difficult to
collect Practically all the notices
have been sent out.

'The fire yesterday afternoon was
but another example of the value of
the new state law requiring alleys
to be kept clean," said H. G. Engle,
city marshal, this morning. while
the fire did not start spontaneously
it originated in pile of trash back
of the barn, and probably would not
have started if the trash had not
been there"
For the past week Marshal Engle
has been notifying merchants that
they must conform to the law, and
the response has been good. Some
of the alleys were in frightful con-
dition, containing piles of organic
refuse.
The new law is drastic in its pro-
visions. 1t provides fine Of not
more than 500 or a jail sentence
of 80 days for any one who deposits

Junction City.-Special cores
pondence. e.-The boy scout camp Is
now fully equipped and all the boys
nicely located SO boys are camp
ing here, 2S of whom are Abilene
boys and 2S from Junction City.
Monday was somewhat disagreeable
and the wind and dust kept them
busy keeping things clean.
Monday evening a number of
Junction City people went out to
visit the boys. The visitors were
much elated over an excellent drill
put on by the Wolf and otter pa
trolls of Abilene, headed by Vaughn
Dyer and Paul Jeffcoat. The boys
all retired at $50 but naturally
they spent some time having a good
time.
Each evening at sunset the Amer
lean flag is lowered and raised in
