To Richmond Scouts: A question tina [
is becoming common at headquarters
liz. What's the ncwS?" oh there
isn't any. Things are very quiet Most
Of the troops are disbaAdcd and the
others are having too good I; time to
let any one know what they arc do
ing" is usually the answer. Fellows.
this does not sound good [" us Scouts.
What is the reason that there is not
more doing IN scouting by troops dur
ing this period of the year? Is il be-
cause the troop secretary lays down
on the job and does not send in the
troop news? II SO. fire him and elect
another one.
There are many rumors at head
quarters that troops are off on week
camping trips, others Ia king week END
hikes. but never a word of what they
do. what they see. or where they go
is sent headquarters.
Fellows. the Scouts of Troop 81 are
working hard on The Times Dispatch
contest and at the last report they
were third place.

Margaret Cunnius, former Reading
woman, who lives in Sacramento. Cal.
The sending Of two checks from this
city to Sacramento recalls the story
and reminds lawyers here Of the fact
that Mrs. Cunnius had just rounded
out a full decade OF life after being
legally dead for seven years.
They recall legal fight that rep
resented little money, but an import
ant principle, and went to the United
States supreme court. In this last
and highest tribunal it was decided
that a man or woman alive in the
flesh is alive in the eye and intent Of
the law, no matter what legal proceed
ings had been in progress prior to
the resurrection"
Margaret Cannius, now white haired,
but in fair health, was born and raised
in Reading. In 1883 she was reported
to have married a Reading man, set
thing with him in the far West. He
died in 1899, when for the first time
in eleven years this woman, who had
gotten completely out of touch with
her relatives and friends here, and
was supposed TO he dead, was located.
In the meantime, her son, John, Of
