Boy Scout News

1. For the benefit and informa-
ton of some to whom the boy scout
idea is not clear and to explain the
purpose and plan of the movement
and the scope of scouting, remarks
will help make our appreciation
more keen for the boy scout plan.
2. The scout plan was organized
in 1910 by General Baden-Powell in
England. It's principles fit SO we'll
into the lives of every boy that its
growth in these six years has been
wonderful. 1t is not socialiZed at
all, but it holds rs countries and
the British Colonies. There are
now $4,000 registered boy scouts
and $4,000 men. Scouting is a
comprehensive plan of activities to
enlist and enlarge and help the de-
velopment, particularly of adde's
cent boys. Boys under IL are us
ually too young to understand ser
iously the principles of scouting.
The primary object of the Boy
Scouts of America is not military,
but Peace scouting and educational
character building for good citizen
ship; to instill those ideas which
should underlie the life of every
boy.
The aim is to get the boy to I'M
derstand the value of his honor, to
be trustworthy loyal, helpful,
friendly, courteous, kind, obedient,
cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and
reverent.
The idea to be kept in mind con-
tinually is the boy and his good,
rather than scouting Half of our
public school teachers are trying
to teach the subject matter of the
book, when they ought to be teach
ing the boy. They employ static
methods. BY stating the two mot
toes of the Boy Scouts organiza-
ton, this seems a Sufficient expla-
nation. BY Lewis Kinley.
The active members of the local
boy scouts are Sackman, Myers,
Dollins, Eggemeyer, Nusbaum, Gay
lor, Livingstone, Hyde, Johanning,
Holcomb, Taylor, Hill, Grove and
Klisket.
The Boy Scouts have been hav-
ing many active meetings lately.
Last Friday they had most sue
cessful exhibition at the home of
their Scout, Master, Lewis Kinley.
Sunday afternoon they practiced
scouting out at Glen Miller. The
boys were divided into two sides,
the Reds and the Whites, and the
Whites won. One of the features
of the afternoon, as we understand
was Kenneth Dollins hiding in a
tree so successfully that they never
did find him. Wednesday evening
the boys drilled at Morton Park,
and Friday evening the regular
meeting was held at the home of
Richard Holcomb.

The flicker, or yellow-hammer, is
our largest and most common wood
pecker. You can tell them by the
rich, bright yellow under their
wings, and the white spot in the
middle of their backs when they
fly. They are ever SO pretty, with
all sorts of little spots and cres-
cents all over them, and two large
ones-red on the back of their
heads and black under their threats.
Some one has said that they look
like neat travellers, in brown suits.
Flckers stay around here all the
year, and make their nests in tele-
phone poles or dead trees. They eat
ants that climb up our trees and
damage them, as well as other in
sects, so that they do lots of good
In helping take care of our trees.
Their eggs are white, and they
lay from five to ten or even more,
and once a flicker was known to
lay seventy-one in one season.
When they fly, they usually go
10 three big waves and light on the
next tree as they start upward
again. Watch them to see. and aft
er while you will be able to tell
them yourselves just by the way
they ny.

Immense Prizes
For Livestock

A 54-page booklet containing the
preliminary classification of the Pa
cific International Livestock Exposi-
ton which is to be held in Portland
December 40, 1916, has been re-
ceived with the following letter:
1--WE enclose herewith preliminary
classification of our Sixth Annual
Pacific International Livestock Ex-
position, to be held at Union Stock
Yards, North Portland, Ore, Decem-
ber 40, 1916.
owing to the splendid manner in
which the Oregon Bankers Associa-
tion. the Portland Chamber of Com
merce, the state of Oregon and the
different breed associations have
made appropriations, the show this
year will take rank with the largest
livestock expositions in the United
States. Between $4,000 and $780,
600 will be given in cash premiums
for livestock. The Shorthorn and
Hereford associations of America
have made total appropriations OF
$4,000, which, being matched by the
exposition, makes premiums of $lO,-
| 600 for those two breeds alone and
insures the strongest kind of compS
tition in this class.
"Close to $1,000 is being offered
in the dairy division, which covers
Holsteins, Jerseys, }uernseys and
Ayrshires. Practically $4,000 is be-
ing given in the sheep classes, while
hogs are recognized to about the
same extent. The draft type of
horses are given over $1,000, di-
vided between the Persheron, Bel
gian, Clydes and Shires. Cattle in
car lots are recognized to the extent
of $2,5OO. The student judging con-
test, to be participated in by all of
the agricultural colleges of the
northwest. again receive $500.
1--WE call attention of the breeders
to the fact that the closing dates are
as follows: Breeding classes, No
vember 10, 1916; fat classes, No
vember 27, 1916. Positively no en-
tries will receive consideration un-
less in our office at North Portland
on or before noon of the above clos
ing dates. This rule enables us to
put forth a catalogue very valuable
to both the visitors and to the eXhib-
itors. Entry blanks will be fur
nished upon application to the un-
dersigned and exhibitors should note
on their entry blanks number OF
stalls or pens required for their
showing.
Members Of the oranges of Ore.
gon, Washington and Idaho have in
dicated their intention of attending
in large numbers, over $500 being
expected. Judges of national repu
tation will handle the different class

ATTRACTS BUSINESS MEN.

Mr.. Hughes has not tried to scare
anybody, but has merely portrayed the
errors Of the present administration
and set forth certain principles on
which the affairs of the country should
be managed In the future.
There is a political logic in his por'
trayal, the elimination of which in the
mind of the voter is expressed by the
frequent remark:
"He is the kind Of man we want to
steer us through"
This has been said by many busi-
ness man. The qualities seen In Mr..
Hughes are poise, strong, sane mind,
sincerity and willingness to sacrifice
life, physical or political, to the good
Of the country. Nor is there any
question as to the quality Of nerve to
meet the emergencies Of the four years
beginning March 4, 1917.

Three Days Offering
At Vining Theatre
Monday.


"The Woman's Law" featuring
Florence Reed, is the attraction for
tonight at the Vining Theatre. THE
Womans Law" was filmed from the
novel of the same name by Maravene
Thompson, and gives Miss Reed an
opportunity to display the terrific
dramatic earnestness that made her
work in "At Bay" and New York"
so salient. Miss Reeds art is viewed
with more curious interest when 1t
is known that she considers her act
ing the real part of her life and her
time between plays a make-believe
life that is as non-serious as 1t is
unreal. Life to her means urgent,
stressful being, and 1t is because our
daily lives are colorful only in spots,
that Miss Reed turns to the stage
and screen to realize the high ten
sion that means life to her.
Tuesday.
Dustin Farnum comes to the Vim
ing Tuesday night in wonderfully
faithful screen adaptation of the Gel
ebrated play, David Garrick." The
story is so familiar as to need no
press notice, and the fame of the Gel
ebrated actor is such as to assure
the Vining of a full house on Tues
day evening.
Wednesday.

cess, Excuse Me-" a Pullman car
tangle full of giggles from start to
finish of its five reels, and featuring
the comedy stars of the screen.

Open the Eyes Under Water.

Practice opening the eyes under wa
ter in swimming, for with favorable
conditions there Is much to be seen and
enjoyed in the queer. ghostly light be-
low. The ability to see when below
the surface may some time prove OF
priceless value. 1t is one Of the attri'
butes of swimming, and it may be
readily mastered. But do not open the
eyes until well below. The closed lid
is an ample protection when one Is
plunging from any height, and it should
remain closed until the 6rst swift
downward rush is ended.-All Out
