TWO POSITIONS IN THE FAMOUS CRAWL STROKE.

right arm relaxes and springs forward
Left arm moves back.
In the cut the swimmer is shown in
the water Note how the water is
gripped by the strongly curved right
wrist edgewise, like the blade of an
oar. The left hand has just left the
water with a vigorous jerk. In the
next position breathe out through the
nose under the water, working the
arms like double bladed paddle in
the hands Of canoeist. When the
left arm has finished its stroke and is
swinging forward the right arm has
begun its stroke and is swinging back
ward. Note that the palm is up.
There is no system Of motion 50
powerful for correcting round shout
ders as the crawl stroke This is be
cause the crawl is chiefly deep breath
ing and shoulder action.

Country.
Among the great movements that
have done much to check the tenden

movement stands ont strongly.
The movement has spread like wild
fire in America. and there are few cit

bands The boy scout movement makes
American boys better Americans. II
takes them out of doors and teaches
them how to do things they never
would learn anywhere else
While the movement is of great ben.
eft to lads in the country and small
towns. in the cities it is of ineStimable
value. The aim of the leaders of the
Boy Scouts of America is to develop
men of tie type of the great men of
history
As the scout the boy willingly adopts
us real and vital the universally ac
cepted principles Of life as set forth in
the scout oath and law. This etfec
lively Influences the boys nature and
character 50 as better to prepare him
for that work which the church can
best do
A scout promises that upon his honor
he will do his duty to God. his country
and obey the scout law; that he will
help other people at all times and that
he will keep himself physically strong,
mentally awake and morally straight.
Must Be Trustworthy.
The scout law. covering the twelve
fundamental principles, requires a
scout first of all to be trustworthy. That
means that he must not tell a lie. cheat
or deceive, but keep every trust sacred.
A scout is loyal to all to whom loyalty
is due. including his scout leader, his
home, his parents and his country.
Furthermore, a scout is helpful, pre-
pared ut all times to save life, help in
| jured persons and do at least one good
/ turn daily. \ scout is friendly to ala
brother to every other scout.
a scout is courteous. especially to
women. children and old people, and
he must not take pay for being cour-
teous. A scout is kind to animals and
does not kill or hurt any living crea.

scout is cheerful. even when facing
hardship and drudgery. A scout is
thrifty. He works faithfully, wastes
nothing and makes the best use of his
opportunities \ scout is brave and
does what he knows is right in spite
Of jeerS and threats \ scout is clean
in body and thought stands for clean
speech. clean sport. clean habits, and
travels with a clean crowd Finally, a
scout is reverent toward God. He is

THE BOY SCOUTS IDEA.
1t Originated In America, According to
National Scout Commissioner.

It Originated In America, According to
National Scout Commissioner.
Daniel c. Beard, national boy scout
commissioner, in a letter to Il New
York newspaper contributes the fol-
lowing:
"For the sake of historical accuracy
allow me to correct statement to the
effect that the boy scout idea origi-
mated in England. The fact is it was
evolved here in America from Ameri-
can traditions and history and particu
larry from the lives Of the buckskin
men of the middle west-Daniel Boone
and Simon Kenton, George Rogers
Clark, Davy Crockett and George
Washington. The distinguished gen
eral Badeu-Powell was too good Il
sportsman to claim the idea. When he
first visited this country and was in
troduced by Mr.. Seton rs the father Of
the boy scouts he said. i am not the
father, but | might be called the "un-
Gle He frankly acknowledged that
he 'crihhed' the idea from America.
See also Colonel Ruosevelt'S letter to
the boy scouts of Philadelphia in the
book of their third annual encamp-
ment. in which he says that the boy
scout idea WAS brought to his atten-
ton while he was president. This was
before Badeu-Powcl's scouts We're or
gained. Raden-Powell previously had
a society IF boys; So also had many
other people and churches and welfare
workers. but none Of them became
universally popular until the American
scout idea was adopted To appeal to
the boys love of romance and adven,
ture
The gentlemen in this movement
are in ii To help the boys and not for
personal glory; hence We have agreed
. that none of us shall make personal
claims to the honor of originating the
idea. but We also agreed that il is per-
fectIy right legitimate. proper and Il
patriotic duty To state that it is an
American idea. indigenous To this cuun.

The boy scout movement had its
birth many years previous to 1910 here
in America 1t was. however. in 1910
that the different hudieS and individu
ais working for the boys united and

RELIABLE CAMP FOOD.
You Had Better Stick to the Old
Standbys.

Standbys.
Raw materials which have been
brought by great labor at the paddle
and under the pack to country where
fresh supplies are unobtainable are far
too valuable to be wasted in unsucceSS-
full cooking experiments.
Cornmeal, wild rice, beans, flour, ba-
con, sugar, tea and salt, with bit Of
soda and pepper to enliven the same,
and some prunes and tobacco to aid di-
gestion, have been from the beginning
and will be until the end of time all
that man requires to keep him alive
and working.
But man, particularly city broke
man, needs more to make him really
happy-his palate and his health de
mand something more of variety.
