Troop 23 met Thursday evening at
Delaware Avenue Baptist Church. We
did not have as much drilling as
usual, there being a little confusion.
though we accomplished quite little
We had much fun wrestling. Scout
Master Enos made ring, and there
were about sixteen different contests.
ending In the misfortune of Ernest
Webb being accidentally hurt, but
soon brought around by a little FIRST
aid rubbing. The contest was won
by Watson. Everest and Rose, who
will probably come together the next
meeting night. We planned hike"
Saturday but we're disappointed by
the weather.

Wilmington TO renew some old friend
ships and to sec for himself the pro-
gress Of Scouting here.
The range officer. Thomas G. Sam
worth, who has held a commission as
Scout Master, unassigned. has now
taken up active work with a troop,
and is in charge OF Troop 5. This
troop has been engaged for some time
in fitting up its headquarters and is
making satisfactory progress.
The st. Johns Troop will in future
be known as Troop "a. the Scout Mas
ter being II. L. Williams. The boys
OF this "outft" are working hard at
their requirements and expect to
make a good record.
The special feld Scout commits
sioner has made arrangements with
New York headquarters whereby
Scout masters, regularly registered
and in good standing can have their
orders for Scout supplies filled di-
rect without the necessity OF having
them contersigned by the commits
sioner. This will save time and
postage and be more satisfactory in
many ways.

Milford, Del, March s, 1915.
Scout Dept, EVENING JOURNAL:
At the meeting OF Troop . held
Thursday evening. March 4. several
new rules relating TO the admission
Of members we're adopted. Troop 2
has always been, as far as possible,
a self-governing body but in order 10
save time and expedite routine busi-
ness, IL was found advisable to adopt
a rule vesting the power OF admit
ting new members in committee
composed OF the Scout master, assis-'
tant Scout master and the patrol
and assistant patrol leaders, these to
constitute body to whom new names
should be presented together with rec
concentrations or protests relating to
their admission. This rule was adopt
ed unanimously.
Following the adjournment Of the
meeting the Scouts formed in a col
umn OF two's and then marched TO
the residence of Major William Mar
shall. surgeon Of the First Delaware
Infantry. where they listened TO a
very interesting and instructive lee
ture on the subject Of first aid. In
the course of his remarks, DR.. Mar
shall laid particular stress on the
Boy Scout motto "Be Prepared" and
explained this as meaning not so
much as to be prepared for an emer-
fency that may be foreseen but TO be
so prepared that when any emergen-
cy arises the Scout will be enabled
to make the best use Of the things at
hand and so overcome the difficulties
that may not be foreseen. AS case
in point Dr. Marshall related how on
one occasion while engaged in hos
pital service in Texas he was sent out
on duty with $500 men. In some way
he became lost and while making his
way back 10 the main body he came
upon a trooper who had been thrown
from his horse with such force as to
break his leg. With no medical sup
plies at hand the doctor improvised
splints and bandages with two car
bines, a saddle Rirth and saddle trap
pings and was thus enabled to bring
the injured man into camp without
undergoing unduly severe pain or
running the risk Of a serious hem
orrhage caused by the broken bono
decorating the flesh.
Yours truly.

Harry Synone has told Dick that

Tim, but neither he nor Mr.. Hatton
want anything said about what they
are doing for him. s..
Like all very rich men they are del
uged with begging letters daily|et-
tiers from those who will not work
and who seem to think that because
these men have money they should
divide it with them.
There is nothing so easy to give
in this world as money, Miss Mar
garet," said Annie, when l told her
about what these men had done for
her. Don't think, dearie, that l am
unappreciative of their kindness, for
am not. You, dear, that's coming
down here day after day when I'm
sure you are hardly able, are giving

Annie is so jealous for me that she
will have it that no one can give as
much to her as do.

Already Annie has planned her

1 Remember

1 remember, remember the house where l was born, the little window where the sun came peeping in at morn. You d hardly know the old place now. for Dad is up-to-date and the farm is scientific, from the back lot to the gate. The house and barn are lighted with bright acetyline, the engine in the laun- dry is run by gasoline; we have silos, we have autos, we have dynamos and things. a telephone for gossip and a phonograph that sings. The hired man has left uS-we miss his homely face "a lot of college graduates are working in his place. There's an engineer and fireman, a chauf- feur and a vet, lectrician and mechanic. Oh, the farms run right, you bet. The little win dow where the sun came peep ing in at morn now brightens up d bath room that cost Dad car of corn. Our milkmaid is pneu- matic and she's sanitary, too. but Dad gets fifteen cents a quart for milk that once brought two. Our cattle came from .Jer- sey and the hogs are all Duroc. the sheep are Southdown beau ties and the chickens Plymouth Rock. To have the best of everything. that is our aim and plan, for Dad not only farms it, but he's a business man.

Crops Nof Affected By Moon

Scientists are now convinced that the moon has no more in- fiuence on crops than 1t has upon the temperature or the amount of rain or the winds or any other weather element. The growth of plants depends upon the amount of food in the soil and in the air that is available for them and upon temperature, light and moisture. The moon obviously does not affect the character of the soil in any way, neither does it affect the compo- sition of the atmosphere. The only remaining way in which it it could influence plant growth, therefore, is by it's light. Recent experiments, however. show that full daylight is about 600, 900 times brighter than full moonlight. yet when a plant gets 1 Tooth part of normal day. light it thrives little better than in absolute darkness. If Tooth part of normal daylight is thus too little to stimulate plant. it seems quite certain that 600, O00th part can not have any affect at all. It is therefore a mere waste of time to think about the moon in connection with the planting of crops. The moon, say the scientists, has nothing more to do with this than it has to do with the build ings of fences, the time for kill ing hogs. or any other of the in- numerable things over which it was once supposed to exert strong influence.
