Dear Mr.. Martin:

Permit me to send this expression
Of congratulation and appreciation for
the magnificent work done by the Boy
Scouts both on Monday and on inaug-
Iration day. Their work was a cred
il not only to their organization and
themselves, but also TO the fair city
of Washington.
Especially was this so on Monday
when practically the whole respon-
sibility of maintaining order was
sturdy young Americans. / am sure
L am voicing the sentiments of all
who had an opportunity of witnessing
their mastery grasp of the situat atIon.
"ARTHUR L. FOX"
The following letter was received at
boy scout headquarters today from
Major Gen. Leonard Wood, grand mar
shal Of the inaugural parade:
War Department.
Il want to commend the excellent
work of the Boy Scouts in the inaugu-
raj ceremonies
From my personal observation and
from the numerous reports that have
come in, the service of these lads was
OF great value. Their energy and en-
thusiasm was amazing. Not only did
they serve as policemen in keeping back
The crowd, but as very efficient admins
traitors Of first aid. Long after dark
these sturdy little fellows stayed by
their duty. 1t was a great pleasure to
see them and a greater pleasure to COM
mend them officially.
Very truly yorus,
Albert NJ Chesley, director Of boys
work In the Y. NJ. c. A, In writing to
the scout commissioner, said:
Il want to congratulate you and the
Boy Scouts on the splendid service rem
dered during inauguration time. l am
sure 1t was much better than having
them march in the parade. and SO far
as was able to Judge. the scouts were
right on the job and did their work
thoroughly.
ut seems to me that it was one of
the best things ! have seen the scouts
achieve"
Women Send Thanks.
Both ants and suffragettes appre-
ciated the work Of the scouts by the
following letter:
''On behalf of visitors and residents
in Washington on March 3. We wish to
thank the officers and men OF the Boy
Scouts of America for the heroic at
tempt they made to keep open the line
of march for the suffrage pageant in
Pennsylvania avenue.
''As the police under Major Sylvester
openly fraternized with the hostile
pOpulace, the nODie example ana many
exertions of the little scouts together
with the fine spirit of the women they
protected, was all that saved the city
from shame and disaster before the cav
airy from Fort Myer arrived
Considering the odds under which
they labored. the work the boys did was
most remarkable 1t was a fine example
Of the power of a trained, intelligent
will over mere brute force.
Representing both the suffrage and
anti-sunrage parties, the undersigned
wish to express to you their grateful
appreciation Of the training you have
given and the work the boys, with that
training can accomplish.

home with her from choir practice
there had been moonlight and the
scent OF syringa in the air. And she
had fallen in love with him. From
that moment she had fought with all
the shy intensity Of her young nature
to make him love her. And she knew
that she had succeeded when on the
river one night he asked her to mar
ry him. She had faltered out a "Yes''
and their lips had come together.
That first ecstatic kiss! The bliss Of
it: The almost happy pain of it! To
be his forever! And to have him for

holding her hand all the way. 1t was
