}. 8. DALE BECOMES SCOUT
EXECUTIVE IN DENVER
National Field Scout Commission 10
Granted Leave Of Absence to
Do Extensive Work.

10 Extensive work.
DR.. Ludwig S. Dale, National Field
Scout Commissioners, has been grant
ed leave of absence, to accept the
position of Scout Executive in Denver,
Colo., which was extended to him re-
Gently by the local council of that city.
Mr.. Dale will leave National Headquar-
tiers in order to begin work in Den
YER about the first Of October.
Mr.. Dale's appointment to Denver
came largely on account of the favor.
able impression he made on the Den
yer officials last June, when he man.
aged campaign for $4,000 to provide
a two years budget for scout work in
that city. Mr.. Dale was so we'll liked
by the Denver people that they were
insistent that he be appointed to the
position of Scout Executive.
There are few men in the country
who have had a wider experience in
scout work than the new Denver exec
utive. Mr.. Dale first became inter
ested in scout work in 1909, when he
applied for commission as scoutmas-
ter in Willmar, MINI. The Willmar
troop did such remarkable work that
it attracted wide attention in Mime
sofa and Mr.. Dale was soon called up
on to assist In organizing troops in
various parts of the state, work in
which he engaged for some time.
Mr.. Dale's exceptional ability along
this line attracted the attention of
National Headquarters and he was ap-
pointed to the position of National
Field Scout Commissioner in October,
1912. This appointment came imme-
diately following European visit of
several months, which he spent in
making careful study of boy scout
work in foreign countries.
AS National Field Scout Commits
sioner, Mr.. Dale's work is we'll known
to every scout official. AS a. field re-
preventative of National Headquarters
he has covered more than 10000 miles
and has addressed more than a quar-
ter of million people. In addition
to his more extended trips, Mr. Dale
did intensive work In financial and
publicity campaigns in Louisville,
Pittsburgh, Chicago, Grand Rapids,
Boston, Buffalo, Richmond, Va, Ro-
chester, Worcester, Hartford and Den
yer.
For some time it has been Mr..
Dale's ambition to take charge of the
work in some one locality, and to con-
centrate on some of the more import
ant problems Of Scouting, such as the
relationship of the Movement to edu-
cation, relationship of the Movement
to business, etc. Denver appealed to
him very strongly, as offering excep-
tional opportunities for work along
these. special lines. The work in that
city is we'll supported by a splendid
group Of enthusiastic men. Among
the more interested workers is Gov
ernor Carlson, of Colorado, who has
promised his active support to the de-
velopment of the boy scout program
in Denver and in other cities of Colo
RADIO.
Mr.. Dale will take with him to Den
yer the best wishes of host of friends
who will watch with interest the de-
velopment of Scouting under his ex-
pert misunderstanding.

1t was in one of the waiting rooms
Of the Grand Central depot. was
sitting beside an honest faced. mother
ly woman of thirty-five, who had a
baby about eight months old asleep in
her lap. She had asked about the train
up the river. when she suddenly cried
out that she had lost her portemonnaie.
She felt in the pocket Of her dress and

so as to be able to swear to me in
court, and hurried out, and she was
scarcely out Of sight when "Rock-a-

away, who had heard and seen all and
was no doubt jealous. got up and walk
ed around and said:
"That shows how much mothers

that way? Not much!''
She was still walking around with
her nose up in the air when an old
man with cane and q satchel stop

''Do you know If this is the New
Haven depot or not?"

up my hand warnfngly.

still louder tones.

you woke this baby up!" I shouted at

you woke this baby up!' / shouted at
the woman.
"Oh, 1 have!. State prison offense,
I suppose!' she sneered as she made
off.
By this time the baby's eyes had got
below my hat, and they began to be-
tray a great deal Of anxiety. l kept
my knees moving and sang to him.
l had sung about rod of 1.-THE Old
Oaken Bucket" which I have always
found to have soothing effect, and he
was looking at me with great curiosity,
when fat woman came sailing along
and stopped to exclaim:
"Kitches, what a sweet little baby!'
Walking about with baby in your
arms is rather monotonous on the spine
and knees and shoulders, but was in
vented as an offset for paregoric. I
lifted up the baby and took a walk-a-
by-baby walk. As l walked tried to
divert his mind into new channel by
telling him bear story. He was grad
ually becoming interested and had
probably made up his mind that was
at least his stepfather when q little
old man who hadn't the slightest ex-
cuse for living blocked my way and
shrilly Observed:
my wife died and left baby about
as big as him on my hands, and
know how to pity you. Are you rails
ing him on the bottle?'
l went on with the bear story. but it
was no use. The baby began to grow
red in the face and to kick and claw,
and he finally yelled out at the top of
his voice. l changed him to the other
shoulder, but it was no good. l got
him down on my arm and tossed him
up and down. but he piped the harder.
No fewer than six full grown people at
once gathered around to discuss the
case, and because l couldn't stand still
to answer their questions heard them
say that l was heartless father and
that the Humane society ought to sta
ton an agent at the depot.
l carried him over to the ticket Of
fee and the information bureau, but
he was not in want of anything in
that line. walked and waved him to
and fro; then l stood still and tossed
him up and down; then l sat down
and bounced him on my knee until his
first tooth was almost shaken out. He
had made up his mind that things
were not according to Hoyle, however.
and he stuck to his tune.

by the waiting passengers, but here

Mrs. Carpenter returned from shop

The maid who admitted her looked at

"What's the matter, Elem" asked
the mistress.

Mrs. Carpenter thought nothing of

Crabs and Holsters are Matched from

They are as unlike the shellfish they
are to become in mature life as grub

the crab the egg clusters are attached

Birds Sonus.

A French writer says that notwith
standing the fact of their simplicity
the songs of birds cannot be initiated
with musical instruments because Of
the impossibility Of reproducing their
peculiar timbre. The notes of birds,
while corresponding with our musical
scale, also include vibrations occupy
ing the intervals between our notes.
The duration Of birds songs is usually
very short, two or three seconds for
thrushes and chaftinches, four or five
seconds for blackbirds, but from two
to five minutes for the lark.
