swept on and took three lines of
trenches at the point of the bayonet.
Finally overwhelmed by numbers
they were forced to retire"
The minister told how his own
scoutmaster, Sergeant Shrosbee, lay
wounded In ditch after the charge
until darkness fell and then got lost
between the British and German
lines. After wandering about for
two hours, he found himself between
barbed wire entanglements and a
trench and called out for sentry
only to be answered by star" shell
and a volley of rife fire. He had
wandered back to the German lines.
He lay down fiat and finally crawled
to safety. There seemed reason to
believe, he added, that the Germans
took none of these boys prisoners; ;
most all were killed and the next
day, wounded that were lying be-
tween the lines were shot at bv
Germans every time they moved.
THAT, he concluded" was the
story of boy scouts in action. II be-
lieve every boy here would go to fill
their places II he had the chance,
