Only Simple Movements.
The drill was the first of the kind ever
held by the local scout organization. The
movements which each patrol was re-
ouired to go through were of the simplest
kind the Boy Scout movement being non
military and its drill manual containing
none of the more difficult foot movements
After the patrols had drilled and had
been inspected by the judges all of the
scouts formed in patrol formation and
marched about the field. They then
formed in hollow square, with the
Judges in the center. Inspector Cross
made an address to the boys. in which
he complimented them the showing
they made and on the enthusiasm shown.
He expressed hope that the drill would
be an annual event,
Capt Doyle presented the Daniels cup
to the patrol. 1t was received by Patrol
Leader Flather. To each member of the
patrol Deputy Scout Commissioner Pat
ton presented red and white bar badge,

asked DIR. Hamlin h. Cogswell. director
of music in the public schools. in his
address on Music in Education, al
the afternoon session.
The speaker said many people regard
it as a luxury or pastime. Phi
losophers in all ages have recognized
the value of music in the lives of the
people. and in recent years psycholo-
giStS have determined its real Signifi-
cance." he said. The human soul can
find its highest expression through art
alone. Way, way back, far beyond
the twilight of the gods. was music in

Should Give Child the Best.

SnOulQ GJ1Ve CQllO the Best.
The speaker said that if teachers and
parents can saturate the child with the
best in literature and music they have
gone a long way toward making the
crude sensual kinds, obnoxious and re-
voting. Parents well know that
whatever makes, home more attractive
tends TO decrease incorrigibleness and
crime. Often it is the parent who needs
a keener appreciation of the beautiful
and a broader musical horizon.
DR.. Cogswell said that if music is
ever to play leading role in our ed
ucational scheme or system there must
be a readjustment of present educa-
tional values. and that educators are
keenly alive to the fact. He said to
appreciate music in all its forms raises
the individual in the social scale as
definitely does skill in dress or pro-
priety in manners.
With the opening of the afternoon
session Miss Augusta Swan gave an i'll
lUstrated lecture on Your Child in the
