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. No or.
ganization for boys ever saw such
a rapid growth.
There are hundreds of rother move
ments for interesting and inspiring
boys. But most of them seem to be
always trying to get the boys to do
what the grownups think they ought
to. The Boy Scout movement has
been an effort to find out the kind
of thing that boys like, and then Or
ganizing them to do those things.
Wild life and out door sports in
terest boys 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 creaturcs--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 to his native element.
Don't expect live boys will sit still
long listening to lectures on good
conduct. After You have talked
about five 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.
A boy may not be willing TO work
Ave 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 burn
ed, 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.

HIGH COST OF DISTRIBUTING
FOOD PRODUCTS mo. 81

A wide range of plans is being tried
in the endeavor to bring back the
old time conditions of direct trade
between producer and consumer, or
at least between producer and retail
er.
One method attaining some popu-
larity, Is the public market idea
Farmers drive in, or send In some
member Of the family or hired man,
with stocks of goods. Several farm
ers may combine to send in sup
ply to the stalls.
Such markets depend for their sue.
cess on several conditions. The Am
erican people will not tolerate poor
goods. Unless some market direc-
tor has the absolute power TO inspect
for sale at that market, and unless
he exercises that power strictly, a
great deal of poor truck will be work
ed off. That will give the market
n bad name. and outside stores will
be preferred.
Another essential for success Is a
good system of rural transportation.
II the farms supplying the market are
reached only over poor or rough
roads, the daily transportation of
goods in small lots becomes too cost
ly. If there Is good trolley or rail
connection with outlying farms the
chance of keeping up regular and
fresh supplies is much better.
A third essential is that the public
give up its lazy reliance on delivery
wagons, and carry their own bun
dies.
Efforts are being made all over the
country by agricultural colleges, farm
bureaus, etc, to interest city people
in buying from the farmer by parcel
post and express. Containers are
being devised to carry regular sup
plies of eggs, butter, chickens, greens
etc. 1t Is asserted that a group OF
city families should be able pay five
families should be able to pay five
cents a pound more for butter, than
the farmer now gets and still under
bid the grocer FIVE cents each. This
seems to be a hope rather than a
demonstrated fact. But there is
something in the idea. The retail
dealer, however. IL he is enterprlsing
in seeking opportunities for direct
purchase of goods. and II he uses the
aid of the newspaper to reach out
and broaden his trade. occupies an
impregnable position.

ELDERS ARRESTED,
PREACHING GOSPEL
WITHOUT LICENSE

Salt Lake, Feb. Information
has reached the office OF the First
Presidency that several missionaries
have been arrested In st. John, Can.
on charge Of practicing a profession
without a license. They have had
one hearing and decision has been
postponed pending thorough inves-
tigation.
Those arrested were MILFORD H.
Russon, Lehi; MILFORD ]. Stark, Pay
son; w. A. Allen, Hyrum, confer
ence president V. s. McAdams; and
George M. Hess, Pennington, and
Henry Rawlins, Fairview, Idaho.
Their defense was that they did not
consider preaching the gospel was a
profession and they introduced some
of their literature to show the nature
of their work.
After reading some of the pamph
let's they offered the magistrate ad-
vised them to leave St. John as he
believed public opinion was against
them. This the elders declined to
do, saying they had permit from
the chief Of police to distribute tracts
and did not believe themselves vio-
lators Of the law. The Judge then
took their cases under advisement in
the meantime enjoining them from
holding meetings or giving out their
literature.
Information concerning the case
was sent to the Church authorities BY
President Walter p. Monson of the
Eastern States mission. He also said
that the anti-Mormon play "Polygay
my" was being poorly attended and
would probably bankrupt its promot-
ers in short time II not withdrawn.

AUTO RACES DEATH
FOR $500 DOGS LIFE
Effort Falls to Save Miss kennedy's
Prize Pomeranian

New York, Feb. 20.-Two prize
winning Pomeranian dogs belonging
to Miss Marion Kennedy, Hampstead,
l.. l., were found Ill by their mis-
tress yesterday, after they had been
allowed to run about the lawn for a
short time. Apparently they had
been poisoned. One, Shamrock's
Boy, worth 500, died few minutes
after Miss Kennedy carried It into
the house.
The other, Champion Parkneuk
Blackthorn, worth 5000 was put into
a basket and her chauffeur rushed 1t

a veterinarian, at No. 66 West list
street. The doctor treated the Pom
and It seemed to revive, but on the
way back to Hampstead in the ear
1t died.
An Irish terrier also was violently
i'll, but Dr.. Harry 8. Fields. a Hemp
stead veterinarian, saved It by quick
work.
Miss Kennedy said she intended TO
employ detectives to try to find the
poisoner, who may have been, some
of her friends thought, a jealous RI
val exhibitor.

CANN ED FOOD

Years ago In country life the pork
barrel was the grand reservoir for
the family dining room. Crops might
fail, and beef might run high. But
the old farm home had reserve OF
pork sailed down that added its ap-
petizing tang to other more neutral
foods.
Today the stock of canned goods
on the pantry shelf forms a similar
reserve. Preserving food products
grown to be one OF the country's
great industries. There Is general
interest in the meeting at New York
recently of the National Gamers AS
ISOLATION. The president OF the as.
ISOLATION announced campaign OF
education to convince the public OF
the wholesomeness Of their products.
In fruits every village always had

the original fruit off the trees. To
day many varieties OF canned fish are
better than the So called fresh ar
ticles at points some distance from
the seashore. Bacon is put up with
a seasoned tang superior to any slice
that can be cut from the freshly kill
ed animal.
The public will never stand for In
ferior articles OF food. 1t is not suf-
ficient that a canned product shall
be merely wholesome, though that
IS the first essential. 1t must be

1.-THE government and people Of the

Are There Private Armies7

1t is illegal to have an army of your
own, but the law winks at private
armies in one or two cases.
The duke of Atholl had-for they
have now gone to the great war-a pri-
vate army of 200 men, and has often
provided guards of honor for King
George from their ranks. In fact,
Queen Victoria once reviewed this pri-
vate army. The duke of Atholl's pro-
vate army is for it's size the finest body
of soldiers in the world, all over six
feet in height, sturdy Scotsmen picked
from the fittest of the fit.
The duke of Fife also kept a pri-
vate army which numbered a hundred
men, who were armed with huge pixies
exactly as the soldiers were armed
centuries ago.
The Stuart Archers and the Farqu-
harson Clansmen are two other private
armies Of which Scotland can boast.
The marquises of Donegal, too, have
for hundreds of years kept private

By FREDERICK WERNER.

International News Service Correspondent.
Berlin (via Amsterdam), May 1S.-
President Wilson's note is being care
fully studied by the German govern
ment. 1t is regarded as friendly
message and will be answered In a
friendly spirit.
May Open Way to Peace.
The general impression. however. is
that Germany will refuse to abandon
her submarine warfare unless Great
Britain abandons the policy which
aims at starving Germany's civilian
population. This may open the way
to further negotiations with the Unit
ed States as intermediary between
Germany and England.
1t is expected that the reply to the
American note will be sent Wednesday
or Thursday of this week. A prelimi-
nary draft probably will be submitted
to a council on Tuesday.
To Bar Arbitration.
Washington, May 10. - Official
Washington believes the German gov
eminent will offer to submit the ques-
tons at issue between the countries
to arbitration, but the impression is
growing stronger that such a proposal
will not meet the approval of Presi-
dent Wilson and his advisers.
The belief Is general among officials
and diplomats that Germany will not
agree to cease her submarine warfare
against noncombatants and will urge
that country 'too proud to fight"
should find way to prevent the fur
nishing of arms and ammunition to
her enemies by means of passenger
ships. The practice, Germany is ex-
pected to declare, is immoral and
should be stopped at once.
U. s. to Oppose Arbitration.
The belief that a suggestion of ar
bitration will be opposed by this gov
eminent is based on the attitude taken
by President Wilson in the discussion
of the sinking by the German raider
Prinz Eitel Friedrich of the Ameri-
can sailing ship William P. Frye.
Then 1t was stated that this ques-
ton was not one for prize courts, as
suggested by Germany. but for diplo-
matte consideration.
