The Rally Day services at the First
Presbyterian Sunday school last Sun
day were well attended and generally
interesting. One of the features was
the mastering in" of the Boy Scout
troop of eighteen members, with the
appointment of patrol leaders, and the
charge to the Scoutmaster. Two flags
were presented to the troop, one the
national flag and the other the Chris
tian or church flag, these are to be ia
the custody of the patrol which shows
the most progress in the lines of
scouting as expressed in the Scout law
during the preceding month. Let every
good citizen boost for the Boy Scout
organization. 1t is strictly n%on-sectar-
ian in it's purposes and plans, although
for the purpose of getting the move
ment under way on a firm basis, the
Brotherhood Of the Presbyterian
church stands sponsor for this particu.
lar troop and will endeavor to promote
the growth of the Scouts in every way
not contrary to the true Scout plans.
1t is a most worthy moveme and
every parent should be interested in
the activities.
