THE BOY SCOUTS.

Boy Scout troops all over the
country have just been celebrating
the fifth anniversary of the founding
Of the order. Although the Scouts
were organized in this country but
five years ago this month, they al
ready include over 100000 members
in the United States alone.
There are hundreds of other move
ments for, interesting and inspiring
boys. But most of them seem to be
always trying to get the boys to do
what the grown-ups think they ought
TO do. The Boy Scout movement has
been an effort TO find out the kind OF
things that boys like. and then organ
il 1g them to do those things.
lid life and our door sports inter-
est Soys more than anything else.
Camping out experiences. cooking out
doors. swimming, padding of canoes,
setting OF traps and snares. the learn
ing the ways of wild creatures-all
this comes nearer to the heart of a
real boy than anything else. A nor
NAL boy takes to Indian and frontier
life like fish 10 his native element.
Don't expect live boys will sit still
long listening TO lectures on good con-
duct. After you have talked about
Ave minutes, they are hiding each
others caps and sticking pins into
each others arms. Get them out
doors following a woodland trail, and
disorder disappears.
4 boy may not be willing TO work
five minutes piling up wood for the
kitchen fire. But he will grub around
for hours collecting dry sticks for
camp fire. Juggling water. and cooking
bacon and eggs. The meal of his
own cooking may be smoky and
burned, but it tastes better than the
best hotel dinner. incidentally on the
hike and in the camp, the principles
OF manliness, generosity and truthful
ness can be taught

If you, as an individual, saw two
lads pummeIling each other. you
would feel prompted TO interfere-but
if the combatants CHANGED to be
grown men,-both as big or bigger
than yourself-you would probably
let them fight it out, and the more
deadly the combat promised TO be-
come, the more prudent would be
your course. Nor could any man
deem your conduct pusillanimous.
That is, unless you happened to be a
policeman. The United States is not
a worlds policeman. It's not our duty
nor prerogative to interfere in the
quarrels of our European neighbOrs
no matter to what weapons they re-
sort.
In giving due warning TO shippers
that they send their vessels forth at
their own risk England is complying
with the rules of fair play. When the
United States echoes that warning.

South Bend can we'll afford this

the city can legally contribute TO the

EDITOR NeWS-IlmeS:
l not by recent issues Of your valU-
able publication that Hon. William A.
McInerny has espOused the enactment
of the anti-lobby bill, strongly sup
ported by the AIishawaka Chamber of
Progress, and with which law this or
ganizatiOn imme diately sought cOmpl-
ance upon its enactment.
We respectfully wish TO inquire 10
just what immediate and definite pur-
pose has the counselor entered his
appearance before the present legisla-
ture. We understand that his regis
tration credentials are quite broad in
scope, embracing "all matters com
ing before the assembly that affect the
operation or management Of public
utilities"
While we admire his candor, we
nevertheless are just a little curious
TO inquire, by the way Of a motion TO
make more specific, what is the real
force and object of his appearance
before the general assembly? And
this is no idle or captious interroSa-
ton.
1t is being rumored about that the
real import of his appearance before
the general assembly is for the
Philadelphia gas crowd that leVles
tribute upon these communities IS 10
procure the enactment for his clients
a law TO deprive the cities Of Misha-
waka and South Bend from further
taxing the gas franchises in these
cities. We beg TO inquire from the
News-Times If this be the purpose OF
the aforesaid Philadelphia corporation
and it's legislative counselor in ap-
pearing at indianapolis? If you are I'M
able to answer this query, perhaps
reference of some Of your Indianapo-
lis legislative bureau may get for You
positive confirmation or denial OF the
rumOr.

so freely gave TO eastern financlal

price. For our enlightenment upon
this question as-to whether such Is the
intended fate OF Mishawaka and South

and favor.

Sometime ago. DR.. W. Lincoln
Chase. a distinguished citizen of
BroOkline, startled Massachusetts, by
giving up his wife to Hartley Den
nett, a we'll known Boston architect.
Hartley was Mrs. Chase's soul-mate,
the doctor couldn't stand between two
souls with but a single thought, and
all that, and so. two years ago, Mrs.
Chase and sOul-mate went up TO a
nice little farm at East Alstead, y. H.,
where their souls could commune,
steep in bliss and all that.
The New England world applauded
DR.. Chase's nobility and generous
self-sacrifice but he now announces
that he gives up his practice and is
going 70 live on that New Hampshire
farm with the soul-mates. We can't
help picturing the good doctor sitting
on the porch OF the little farm house.
smoking his pipe over the six best
sellers" while one of the soUl-mates
is out back OF the house cultivating
potatoes and such. Anyhow. the doc
tor declares Hartley to be a saint.
which is in itself an almighty fine
sign that it's the soul-mate who is to
do the potato uplift.

affair" But it's really that archi-
