WHAT is SCOUT MOVEMENT?

Any boy, of any nationality, of any
creed, twelve years of age or older,
may become a boy scout if he promises
to keep the scout oath and laws and
prepares himself for simple tests, on
the composition and history of the
American flag and the significance Of
the scout badge, and can make several
cOrdage knots.
The boy scout movement is In no
a secret organization.
The plan is to group a number of
boys (not more than 81 in one troop"
as they are designated) under the lead
ership of a "scOutmaster'-a carefully
selected, clean, intelligent, b~Oy-lOving,
volunteer leader-always a man of
sterling character and mature judg-
ment. Each troop and scoutmaster
are under the supervision of a troop
committee" Of responsible citizens. usu-
ally officials of the church, synagogue,
school, settlement house. asylum or
playground with which the troop is
connected.
Through such leadership the boys of
the troops are kept interested in a pro-
gram of play-activities that are health
giving and educational. They take
long tramps. studying nature in all its
forms. They learn woodcraft, and
how to take care of themselves in the
open. They have troop meetings each
week for study, handicraft, expert
ments, demonstrations, etc, and 60
into camp every summer under trained
directors.
In a hundred ways the boys time is
occupied. The program is so varied
and so fascinating to he boy that he
simply hasn't time or opportunity to
trail with an idle gang or to turn into
the evils that beset the path of the idle
boy.
The boy scout is taught courtesy,
honor, humanity, kindness, chivalry
and service, and to exercise them at
home, In school and outside, and such
practical activities as irst-aid, life
saving, cooking, swimming, etc.
The boy scout must do a good turn
daily.
The only membership cost is an an
nual registration fee of % cents. The
boy scout is taught thrift. He must
earn the money for his own scout ex-
penSes.
City officials often cooperate with
scout leaders, permitting the couts tC
enjoy, as they do. the privilege Of as
sisting in honorable. safe ways in con.
n@ection with big demonstrations. on
each occasion scouts are responsible
aids, while other boys. in striking con.
tract just "hang around" getting in
the way if not actually into mischief
1t becomes a first step in practica.

ROOM FOR $4,000 CAMPERS.

When the work of w. A. WEIGH, en-
gineer for the Palisades Interstate
park. has been completed there will
be accommodations for $4,000 campers
on the lakes near Greater New York.
The park has been carefully planned,
so that the camp sites will be suitable
for those for whom they are intended.
The scouts of Greater New York will
be camped on one big lake. which is
being made by Joining three other
lakes together. Car pond will be
turned over to the Big Brothers and
to the Society for Improving the Con-
ditiOn of the Poor.
1t is proposed, as soon as accommO-
dations are arranged, to try u a new
type Of camp which has proved a sue
cess in Los Angeles and Seattle. This
will be a neighbOrhOod camp. Small
buildings are being prepared to take
care Of families So that those who de-
sire TO live in the open during the sum
mer will have an opportunity to do so.
The spot set aside for the scout camp
is i'm the very center of the park, the
Widest part of the country. 1t offers
opportunities for the hikes and wood
craft which all scouts love.

NOTES OF THE SCOUTS.

A scout practices ~self-cOntrol, for he
knows that men who master problems
in the world must first master them
selves. He keeps a close guard on his
temper and never makes a silly spec
tacle Of himself by losing his head. He
keeps a close guard on his tongue. for
he knows that loud speech is often a
cloak to ignorance, hat swearing is a
sign Of weakness and that untruthtul-
ness skaters the confidence of others,
He keeps a close guard on his appe-
tite and eats moderately of foods
which will make him strong; he never
uses alcoholic liquors. because he does
not wish to poison his body he desires
a clear, active brain. so he avoids to-
bacco.
A scout holds his honor to be his
most precious possession. and he
would die rather than have it stained
He knows what is his duty and all OBJ.
legations imposed by duty he fulflls
of his own free viii. His sense OF
homer is his only taskmaster, and his
honor he guards as jealousy as die
the knights of old.
A lecturer surprised the scouts OF
Montclair, n. j., by telling them Of
over sixty kinds of birds that remained
in town Over the winter. Under sucl
conditions it ought not to trouble an!
scout to pass his bird study examina
tons at any time of the year.
