vention. "are economy through reduc-
ton of lighting bills. saving eyesight,
through the use of less artificial light

pouncement OF the campaign, which is
to start February / and end May l..
gave rise to the question whether or

public schools now collecting paper.
In his address \. {. Moses. president
OF the local council of Boy Scouts. said
that the council did not propose TO en-
ter into the campaign with the inten-
tion of competing with the schools. He
asserted that the scouts had just as
much right to start such campaign

proposition. He urged that the scout
masters inculcate in their scouts an en-
thusiastic spirit toward the movement
