BOY scouts ARE
BIG MOVEMENT
America Stands at the Heal of
the List; Total Membership .
of World Is Two Million,

Seven years ago today, General Sir
Baden-Powell organized the Boy
Scouts of England. Since the hero
OF Mafeking has extended his organi.
zatlon around the world, it being modi-
fed to suit every country. 1t was
brought to America in 1910 and it
at once seized the imagination of the
American boy under the name of the
Boy Scouts of America. Love of scout
Ing was aroused in General Baden
Powell through reading the moves of
Fantmore Cooper and Major Marriatt
and 1t was through his gift as a scout
that with only 70. men, he held Ma
feking against $4,000 Beers for over
seven months till the British relief ar.
rived. During this siege he made
scouting expeditions outside of the
city almost every night and organic.
ed the first band of boy scouts in the
British army, which was of great as
sistance to him in his hold on Ma.
feking. This convinced him that the
whole empire was in need of such an
organization, but his ideas did not
take definite form till he had studied
such writers on outdoor life as Thomp
5ontSeNon with his organization of
"Woodcraft Indian Brotherhood" of
which then numbered 100000 Ameri-
can boys. Then it was that the pure
ly military conception of the Scout
that Baden-Powell had in mind gave
way to the broader and finer ideal of
training boys through scoutcraft to
become ali around knights of duty
and kings Of emergency. in every chan
mel of life.

Today there are more than 1000, 900
boy scouts in the world and America
stands at the head of the list. 1t
was in 1910 that General Baden.

seurs with their picturesque uniforms
caked With mud and with drawn and
haggard faces.
Trying to sop the advance of the
French achievements, the German
guns searched Newport, battering
the ruined houses, like a dog shaking
a dead rabbit. Beyond the Nieuport
canal French batteries we're posted
and about ten in the morning these
came into play with a salve, which
Jared the earth for miles around.
ARTILLERY Plays Part.
In the momentary pauses when the
smoke from the French I" seventy
fives" cleared away, six-inch shells
from the German howitzers came drop
ping into the fields where they threw
up geysers of mud and black smoke.
Peasants plowed their fields apparent
ly unconcerned with the tremendous
war drama, on the stage of which they
seemed unconscious interlopers.
Suddenly just beyond st. Georges,
the big German observation balloon
was seen to ascend and hang in the
quiet air. Signs of activity became
general all along the User. From
Newport a body of troops could be
see moving at the double quick down
the only dry road towards st. Georges,
but soon disappeared from ohserva-
ton in the smoke from the machine
guns. Later it was learned that this
infantry advance, one of the first at
tempted since the Germans had been
halted along the User, had gained
several trenches. ,
1t was now midday, as if hating for
lunch, the thunder of the guns died
away, only to be resumed in a desul:.
tory fashion during the afternoon.
Except the occasional growl of a sin
gle howitzer, evidently aimed at the
gas tank on the edge of Nieuport, the
ate afternoon was spent in taking toll
of the days operations. Battalion at.
tor battalion of Africans marched into
Newport, fresh and with the bouyant
step of trained soldiers, Red Cross
cars carried the wounded towards the
rear while canal barges disgorged en-.
crmous stacks of food fer men in the
trenches.
In the twilight down the road came
a family group Of peasants whose
house had been DESTROYED by a shell
that day, dumb as the few lean COWS
they drove before them. .
