Conducted by National Council Of the
BOY SCOUTS IRON WILL
Boy Scouts OF American

The iron will does not give in to IA
tlgue or danger or even death itself.
II Is the iron will which Is keeping the
Scouts at work today, each feeding his
soldier.
Zing! A mosquito. The Scout passes
his hand across his neck. remember
ing that across the sea 1t is bullets that
zing. The hoe swings on.
Ooh! his eyes 60 shut. A swarm
Of gnats. He brushes them away and
clears his optics. Over there 1t Is fly
ing shrapnel and the eyes are gone for
ever. The hoe swings on.
Down across the face burning fluid
trickles. He wipes 1t away with his
hand and looks. almost expecting to
see a crimson stain, for he has been
thinking of himself as soldier, wound
ed. No. it's only Precipitation. The
hoe swings on.
He straightens up-Or rather he tries
to. Ouch! what a pain In his back.
And his legs feel like sticks. The hoe
swings on. Many a soldier, when he
comes back from the war, has legs that
are sticks.
Boom boo-o-mi A crash like a thou
sand heavy guns. The earth trem-
bles. A thunderstorm dyenches him.
He stops and turns his face upward
In thankfulness. He is only getting
wet Over there the crash and roar
are continuous and every minute some
brave fellow goes down under the
steely hail. The shower passes. The
hoe swings on. 1t is the iron will.
EVERY Scout to Feed a Soldier"
Every Scout has promised, and every
Scout will do It! The summer sun
will not stop him. Fatigue will not
stop him. The bugs will not stop him.
Nothing on earth will stop him. He
is fighting for liberty-ighting with
the iron will.

Of the center squad, and In succession
from the center squad place their
squads on the line.
If at a halt, the base squad Is de-
ployed without advancing. The other
squads are then conducted to their
proper places by the flank. Interior
squads may be moved when squads
more distant from the base have
gained comfortable marching distance
That Is to say, while the squads deploy
In succession, according as they are
near the base, 1t Is necessary first for
the other squads to clear a front for
them by marching of on the flank.
At this point 1t may be explained
that, as in the close-order drill, atten-
ton has so far been confined to the
company and the squad, without refer
ence to the platoon. This has been
to avoid confusion. As a general prin-
ciple, however. 1t may be said that the
rules for the deployment Of a platoon
are the same as those for the company.
Yet by this time the new soldier will
have cOmprehended the importance Of
the platoon in that 1t combines both
the functions Of the squad and the
company.

| smother of smoke and flame as they
smote the unwieldy Spanish bulls, on
the decks of which hudded the great
mass of sOldiery, worse than useless in
this action. where the English simply
would not come to close quarters and
fight the matter out with bOarders. Sir
Martin FrObisher was at one time in
action with no less than four of the
enemy's vessels. Drake sank gal
leon which took TO the bottom with her
no less than 1000 men. His formation
broken, his ships shattered, the duke
Of Medina Sldonia was driven past
Dunkfrk. where lay the fiOtilla Of Far
nese hopelessly imprisoned by Justin.
Jus and his Dutch blockaders. Before
southerly breeze the Spaniard ran for
the north, abandoning the effort to gain
command Of the seas and hoping only
to round Scotland and make his way
back home.
The rest Is pitiful tale. The Eng
fish followed until August 2, their guns
laundering and their hearts exulting as
now and then a tall ship plunged be-
meath the waves. Then perceiving an
apparent shift Of the Spanish course
toward Norway. and being themselves
well nigh out Of ammunition they
thought 1t best. In the. words of Drake
to leave them to those boisterous and
uncouth northern seas"
The weather that summer was al
most succession Of gales. The clumsy
Spanish ships were hard put to 1t to
keep aflOat. Many of them foundered
at sea with all on board. At least 10
are known to have gone ashore on the
coast Of Ireland. where the Irish either
put the survivors to the sword or sent
them with halters round their necks
to Elizabeth at London. OF all the
magnificent fleet which had put to sea
with such pageantry and pride less
than 80 craft succeeded In making
their way back to Spanish ports.
Philips dream Of world conquest
was at an end. Not so much as a
single English pinnace had the great
armada sunk. England and the seas
about her were to remain free and
unconquered. The sea kings Of Brit
ain had saved her and in truth singed
the beard of the king of Spain.
Drake sleeps deep in Nombre Dois
bay. His drum still hangs in Plymouth
Hoe and England has his promise:
IF the Dons sight Devon,
I'll leave the port Of heaven
And well drum them up the Channel
AS we drummed them long ago."

DOG HAS THE SIXTH SENSE
Scientists Declare Canine Possesses
One More Than Number Of Which
Human Beings Boast.

Human beings, as Is well known.
boast five senses; but the scientists
argue that the dog goes one better. and
possesses six. What the sixth sense
is has long puzzled the best authori-
ties. 1t is something more than the
mere sense of smell. as the following
instances show, according to London
Tit-Bits.
1t Is possible. for instance, for a dog
to make its way into crowd Of people
and pick out its master. In so doing
the animal uses its sense of smell (;
but there Is another qualification to
be accounted for Cases have fire.
quently been reported where dogs,
after being taken on long journeys by
train, have been lost amid their new
surroundings, eventually to find their
way home again. Such a case Is that
Of a retriever which was taken by
train to st. Adams, but. leaving its new
home shortly after arrival, returned to
its home at Highgate Hill.
1t took the retriever two days to
cover this distance. and the dog was
well-nigh exhausted when 1t reached
Highgate Hill. How is 1t possible for
dog TO pick out It's way in such a
manner? one might ask. The dog has
undoubtedly more than the five senses
credited to human beings, but scien-
lists have yet to tell us what the extra
one is.
When the dog has been taught to
speak we may perhaps have the prob
lem solved from self-experience.

An Aged oander.

The birds that live to O great age
are comparatively few. Gulls have
been known to reach forty years, par
rots frequently live eighty years, and
swans nearly as long. Ravens and owls
usually die somewhat younger, but
there Is good reason to believe that
eagles and falcons sometimes live more
than one hundred years. OF barnyard
fowls, ducks and geese live longest.
Mr.. d. MacLachlan Of Islay, Scotland,
writes to the Field that he has Q gan.

and seems az active as II ever dld.

AMONG THE SCOUTS.

A Scout must be cheerful, no matter
what he Is up against. He must "play
the game" and play 1t with a smile
on his face, no matter how serious the
problem may be which confronts him ;
like the Canadians in this present war,
who are said to enter the terrible bat
ties with a laugh. kicking football in
front Of them, until the pig-skin alights
on the heads Of the enemy!
The number of things which q boy
can do and the thoroughness with
which he can do them have been Of
tener minimized than magnified. No
boy ever went to the bad except in
protest against parents who failed to
provide productive activity in proper
form.
When Scout accepts a duty, he
does 1t cheerfully because he knows
that he is going to perform the duty
successfully. Whatever enterprise he
enters into he does 1t with the conyic-
ton and belief he is going to win, and
he does 1t with a grin because he is
going to win.
Down in Natchez, Miss. Scouts erect
ed a permanent camp near their gar
den and detailed members to work ev-
cry evening at six o'clock. Each Scout
serves once a week. They have four
acre plot and have offered their crops
to the First Mississippi regiment.
A result to be hoped for Is the real
ization on the part Of the educators
and leaders in work for boys that the
Boy Scouts Of America have demon
strated that their program of service
through organized effort is the most
practical method for the teaching and
expression Of patriotism and training
for good citizenship.

DEPLoYlN0 THE COMPANY IN
LINE.

The base squad, as we have seen,
deploys as soon as 1t has a suf1-
cient interval, and the other squads Of
the company are deployed as soon as
they reach the general line, but II tao
teal considerations demand 1t, squads
may be deployed before reaching the
line. Otherwise, each corporal when
he reaches the line gives the COM
mand, or signals with his arm, "As
administers" His squad thereupon de-
ploys and halts abreast Of him.
