Scout Notes

All boys between the ages of
12 and Is years, who wish to
join the Scout movement, will
get an application from either
the Scoutmaster or Patrol Leader
Cauble. The applications have a
copy of the Scout law and Scout
oath on one side and the applica
ton on the other. After your
parents have signed the applica-
ton give it to the Scoutmaster
or Patrol Leader and it will be
voted upon at the next meeting
and you will be informed of the
result of the voting.
The Scouts of the Eagle Patrol
accompanied by the Scoutmaster
made an overnight hike and camp
on Wolf creek last Wednesday.
This Patrol is becoming seasoned
campers and certainly do enjoy
it. On the hike the Scouts were
on the lookout for birds, trees,
tracks and small articles in the
road. One Scout saw eight diff.
ferent birds, another saw seven
teen different trees, fourteen
different tracks, etc., and all of
the others were not far away.
The Scouts need a room for
meeting place badly, for they are
getting quite a little troop prop.
erty and haze no place for it.
Why can't the fathers and moth
ers in Mansfield help these fell
lows? Isn't the Scout movement
worth anything to your boy? If
so, why not help these earnest,
manly fellows who are doing all
they can for themselves and are
anxious to help you if they have
the chance.

GERMANY RECEOES
 FROM POSITION
WE'LL MAKE MANY CONCESSIONS
Government Is Very Anxious to Main- tain Friendly Relations with the United States and to Have Country Continue Neutral.

BERLIN, April 27.-The Cologne Gazette, recognized as one of the gov ernment organs, in an article today, stated that the. government had re- ceded from it's defiant attitude re- garding the American note and will make number of concessions to meet the American demand.
 The article states that Germany is particularly anxious to hold the Uni ted States neutral for a number of reasons. While it is said that as a belligerant the United States would not harm Germany particularly, and because of her distance from the European conflict could not take an important part, the breaking of the friendly relations between the two countries would seriously affect Ger many from an economic standpoint, situation which might seriously affect Germany's chances in the struggle.
 It is believed that the reply to the Presidents note will be forthcoming within few days, and that it will be satisfactory to the American govern ment.

0BREGON FAILED,
 10 SHOW UP AMERICAN OFFICERS WAITING Mexican Secretary of War Does Not Arrive at San Antonio for Con. ference with Scott and Funston Whereabouts Unknown.
AMERICAN OFFICERS WAITING

.--aN ANTONIO, April 27.-The whereabouts of General Obregon, Mexican Minister of War, who was to have been here yesterday for con- ference with Generals Scott and Funston, is a mystery. He has not made his appearance and nothing concerning his whereabouts has been learned. He has failed to communi- cate with the United States military authorities, and his silence is pug ling.
 It is feared here that his non-ap- pearance is an indication that trouble in Mexico is liable to break out any moment as on the result of the con- ference which was to be held as it was greatly to the advantage of Mexico that the conference be held and his failure to appear has caused consid- erabIe apprehension.

ments of the law so far and if their hearing demonstrates that they are fit, a certificate of citizenship will be issued to them by Judge Jennings.
 The law pros ides that all natives born in Alaska, who shall have aban- dcned the ways of the tribe and who shall have passed satisfactory ex- animation before the majority of the teachers at the nearest school, wheth- CT governmental or territorial, shall receive a certificate which shall then be signed by five citizens who shall have known the native for at least a year. The certificate shall be filed with the district court accompanied by an affidavit showing that it is gen. uine and a hearing ordered by the judge of the court.
 The treaty with Russia, by which the United States acquired Alaska. provided that the members of unciv- ilized tribes should be subject to such laws as the United States should make for their government, but that civilized persons who elected to re- main within the territory should re- ceive all rights as citizens. There has always been much controversy over the question of the citizenship of Indians in Alaska. Many claimed they were citizens while others con- tended the opposite.
 The act passed by the last legisla- ture was introduced by Senator Chas. Sulzer with a view to settling all controversy in the matter.
