WHAT THE BOY SCOUTS ARE DOING

of enHsting the scouts in handling
traffic difficulties during the holiday
rush was originated by police ON
Ger Of the traffic squad. Under Com
missioner Foster and Executive Sow
erby, the work for the boys was laid
out systematically and was performed
with splendid spirit This special
activity fits in well with the Detroit
scouts, educational campaign in safety
first
In Toledo, under their scoutmasters
and Scout Executive Mendenhall, the
scouts repeated the fine work they
had done the year before, in assisting
shoppers on and OF cars and ct
thirty troops in Toledo provided food
and other Christmas gifts for at least
one needy family.
In Louisville, KY, there was q great
Christmas celebration at Lincoln Park
at which Santa Claus distributed
candy, fruit and toys to thousands OF
boys and girls. Scouts from many Of
the troops in Louisville helped In
| handling the enormous crowd.
At Community Tree.
In all of the boroughs of Greater
New York, the scouts assisted charity
and church organizations in the dis
! tribution of food and gifts to needy
families. On the day before Christ
mas, several hundred scouts assisted
shoppers in the principal shopping
districts, and at the community Tree
| of Light" in Madison Square on
Christmas Eve, two hundred boy
scouts assisted in the chorus and
helped in handling the great crowds.
Scouts furnished an interesting part
of the program each night during the
4 holiday week.
A special feature Of the Community
celebration in Cleveland, Ohio, was
the establishment of a model scout
4 on ha Ia
| evening of December g. Felled trees
were brought to the square in order to
provide fuel and shelter. A camp
flreSwas held in the evening and the
boys spent the night in their tents
just as they would in the forest.
In Hartford, Conn, Pensacola, Fla,
and other cities, newspapers printed
long complimentary accounts OF the
assistance given by scouts in Christ
mas shopping crowds, or at large
Christmas dinners and celebrations.
/ What One Mother Did.
Several years ago a number Of
scout troops were organized in Free
hold, N. J. Shortly after the organi-
zation they had difficulty in finding a
suitable meeting place. Mrs. Dancer,
whose son was member Of one Of
the troops, came to the rescue and
opened her home and permitted the
troops to meet in her large dining
room IOr over i've 1uoHIuS- f4(uIlu8
/ that time Mrs. Dancer had no cause
to complain of any misconduct or mis-
behavior on the part of the boys.
/ Through Mrs Dancers efforts q.
fund of over $500 was raised for the
scout organization and later arrange
ments were made with the County z.
! NJ. C. A. to supervise the scout work
| in Freehold.
During the past year there has been
II little or no scout activity and Mrs.
T0a-, 10 ho6 1na srrrl4I 4
convinced of the value of scouting in
her community, again began a move
ment for denomination Of the council
and troops. This has now been ac-
complished and council Of over 100
men have become very much inter
| ested and are determined that the
scout work in Freehold shall be main

Dear Uncle Jed: thought would
write and tell you about my trip to
Ocean Beach last summer.
One Sunday morning we rose at half
past FIVE and got the lunch ready to
take. At about half past six we were
ready to start. There were four chill
dren and four grown people. We went
in a FIVE passenger Buick automobile
which belonged to my uncle. The auto
was pretty well laden with the lunch
and all of US. ,,
The day was a nice one and the
sun was shining brightly. It was quite
cool when we started, but later in the
day it grew warmer. We went through
Willimantic. Norwich and New Lon
don. We arrived at Ocean Beach at
about half past nine. We went down
on the beach and my mother. father.
uncle and aunt sat down on some
benches. My three cousins and I
played in the sand and padded in the
water. In a little while my uncle
went in bathing. There were a lot
Of people there.
We met two of, our friends down
there who had come to spend the day.
About half past twelve we ate our
dinner and then we padded in the
water, played in the sand and looked
for pretty shells.
At about four o'clock we started for
home. In Norwich we went up one
street and came down another and
then we saw that we had come right
back where we had already gone.
When we got to WiIlimantic we
stopped and had a dish of lee cream.

on a farm instead Of in stuffy New
York"
We went into warm kitchen, rub
bling our hands, for 1t was cold OUT
side, and then sat down to eat a hearty
meal, for after a long drive we all had
good, wholesome appetite.
After we had breakfast, we asked
our guests what they would like to do.
They wished TO see the farm, SO we
readily consented to lead them around.
First we took them to see the chick
ems and other fowls, and oh! how they
laughed when they spied some chicka-

took them to see our fields and brook
and buildings.
