Frederic opened his eyes at the
sound of a gentle. persistent tapping
on the bedroom door. Resting on his
elbow. he looked blankly. wonderingly
about the room Aforementioned. It
was broad daylight. The knocking
continued. He dreamed on, his blink

room.

spoke, assuming a fine Irish brogue in
imitation of their little maid of all

"IM have to, unless my clothes have

"They are here. Now, do hurry"
He sprang out of bed and bounded
across the room. She passed the gar

door.
He was artistic, temperamental.

NECESSARY
AN EFFORT WILL BE MADE THIS
WEEK TO FORM ORGANIZATION
THAT WILL MAKE ARDMORE
SCOUT WORK PERMANENT.

For some time volunteer workers
Lave been making an effort to re
organize a troop of Boy Scouts In
Ardmore. A number of boys became
interested and have gone into the
work with zest, most of them having
already qualified for the first degree
-Tenderfoot The work is to con
tinue, and many boys will be benefited
thereby.
But, in order to make the work a
complete success, and insure perma-
nency to this organization, even
though the present workers should
drop out, it is necessary to form a
scout council of reliable business
men who will help to look after the
work and lend a little of their time
to its betterment, The council as
a whole need meet only twice year
the active work being vested in the
officers and an executive council
which directs the boys through a
scout commissioner. This commits
sioner also acts as representative OF
the national organization, and is
probably the most active of all scout
officers.
There are no salaries attached in
any of the work, unless the number
of troops increase to such an extent
that the council should deem it ad
visable to select a man who should
devote his entire time the boys. lr
that event some provision would, OF
course, have to made for salary
In Ardmore, however enough volun
teer workers should be found that II
will be unnecessary to think of pro-
viding money for the work. To this
end a meeting will be held soon (tht
exact time has not yet been decided
upon, but will be announced later
and it is earnestly requested that
those who are called will come anG
