BOY SCOUT WELL SUPPORTED
Financial Backing Came Slow at First,
but Is Now Plentiful.

Reports submitted show that, where
as two or three years ago the scout
work In most of the large cities was re-
tarded because the public did not fully
understand it and consequently with
held financial support. every one Of
these cities now is supporting the
movement handsomely. providing not
only the funds needed for the mainte-
nance Of local headquarters with a
trained executive in charge. but also
the personal service of leading citizens
educators. professional men. juvenile
court judges and c~hurchmen. Indeed,
the surprising statement was made
that seven cities which have raised
budgets for scout work have not yet
been able to find trained men to adj
minister it. This lack. 1t is expected.
will soon be filled now that so many
colleges are providing scientific in
struction in scout craft and executive
scout work.-Report Of Chief Scout Ii
