Not long ago there was held at one
OF the big New York hotels a flower
show that was attended by many So
ciety folks. Among the visitors was
Miss Ruth Atkins. Il sweet little miss,
whose portrait is shown herewith.
Ruth was greatly pleased at the beau
tiful display Of flowers. and many Of
the people at the show thought Ruth
was the most charming rosebud Of all
the gorgeous display. AS she was 60
ing about with her mamma the cam
era man came along, and be was so
struck with Ruth that he snapped her
picture then and there. If by chance
Ruth should see her picture IN the pa
girl.
Kick and Run.
This is a boy scout game and is play
ed iii Il clearing or open field with
regular association football or basket
bali. One scout takes hts position in.
the clearing, and the rest seek cover
as near as possible. With scoutmas-
ter acting as umpire, the ball is rolled
into the open space and tie scout in
side Immediately kicks it out and rush
es out to tag any other scout he can
find and catch, but directly the ball is
kicked back into the clearing he must
return and kick it out. The umpire
! watches the ball and as soon as it
comes to a standstill inside the clear
ing blows his whistle to indicate the
fact. While the one scout iss returning
to kick, it out the others may change
their positions or seek fresh hiding
places
The scouts who are caught remove
their scarves or wind white hand
kerchief around one arm and then help
their captor to catch other scouts.
They must not kick the ball, but must
return to the clearing each time the
whistle is blown. The winner is the
scout whoeis caught last. En- an open
field the clearing is indicated by
white mark on the grass or by corner
posts and scouts have to ehlde cap
ture more by lodging than by seeking
cover.
! AS a variation successive patrols
may "hold' the clearing and endeavor
to capture the rest of the troop in the
shortest possible time. The patrol
leader only is allowed to kick the ball
out Of the clearing. The winning pa
troll is that which takes the shortest
time. In this variation the scouts who
are caught do not take any further
part in the ame-Sconting.
Wall Scaling For Scouts.
The exciting and trying sport of wall
scaling is being taken up by many of
the more aggressive troops Of boy

peals to the eye and gives opportunity
for snappy contests. Teamwork counts
and fumbles are glaring Altogether,
to the troop which has or can make
the necessary equipment wall scaling
is well worth the effort There are
few exercises so thrilling with SO lit
tie of the element Of danger Of mis-
hap. Many troops are practicing wall
sealing at this time with view to
putting OH exhibitions at various pub
! lie gatherings, encampments and the
like this summer.
Girlie's Troubles.
| My name is little Albertine
! But mother calls me Tommy
i Because my clothes are never clean,
/ Ny hands are always gummy. Est
She stops me racing through the house,
She says make q racket;
| Declares she'll dress me in blouse
/ And put on pants and jacket -
Because climb up fence and trees,
Make mud pics In the gutter.
Forget to say THANK you"aand Please
i When want bread and butter.
And after am batllei at night, II, gts. II
She prays Lord keep hercleanly,'' s5

And whispers, Daddy's Queenie.s'a t
