BOY SCOUTS SHOW
WORK IN PAGEANT
Two Thousand Members of
City Organizations Parade
in Avenue.
THOUSANDS CHEER THEM

With ideal weather and thousands OF
persons lined along the north side OF
PENNSYLVANIA avenue from Peace Mon
ument to 18th street, applauding ana
cheering, the entire membership of the
local Boy Scouts, comprising seventy
four troops numbering 1000 boys, pa
raded up Pennsylvania avenue yester-
day afternoon in their first annual
pageant to show the public that they
stand for preparedness and are pre-
pared, not for military purposes, but
for what is in store for them in the
future.
Headed by a police escort, the parade
started promptly at o'clock at "a
street and Pennsylvania avenue and
south to the White House ellipse.
where the boys listened to brief ad-
dresses by Representative J. Hampton
Moore, Rev. DR.. Charles WOOD. pastor
of the Church of the Covenant: COIN
n. Livingstone, national president OF
the Boy Scouts of America, and H. II
-Grogan, commissioner of the local
council of the organization. All or
the speakers praised the scouts Tor
what they were and what they stood
for.
Mr.. Moore's Advice.
Representative Moore told the boys
that they were doing the right. thing
in preparing to become able-bodied men
and to take their places in the world
He asserted the best thing to do was
to get down to business-practical
business-in life as young as they pos
sibly could.
Various activities of the troops were
depicted in the parade, some causing
amusement from the spectators and
others showing that the Boy Scouts
really are learning to become efnclent
in many endeavors.
The first division was led by the
Washington, D. c., Boy Scout Band.
The boys had fifty-five pieces in the
band, which was under the direction
of j. Leonard Kidwell. Following the
band came the key Of the Boy Scout
movement, displayed by cardboard ban
ners giving the scout oath and scout
laws This illustration showed that
the organization has built in the last
seven years the fundamentals or a
nationwide preparedness.
The oath consisted of three signs or
pennants First, stating "A scout will
do his duty to God and his country
and obey the scout law; second, "A
scout is ready and willing to help
other people at all times" and third,
"a scout keeps himself physically
strong, mentally awake and morally
straight" The twelve laws of the or
ganization were depicted by the follow
ing, each on a separate banner: "A
scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful,
friendly, courteous, kind, obedient,
cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and rev.
erent."

In back Of the living room, and coz

convenient built-in sideboard, and
there is also side entrance to the

The bedrooms are placed one at the

The British museum recently OBJ
served it's one hundred and fifty-eighth
birthday, as it was established on jan
uary Is, 1850. 1t was Sir Hans
Sloane, an Irish-born physician of
Scotch extraction, who is hOnored as
the father of the museum. Sloane was
created baronet-a title to which no
English physician had before attained
just two centuries ago, in recognition
of his labors in writing Natural His
tory of jamaica" His library of So
900 volumes and 1856 manuscripts,
and his collection of natural history
and art objects he bequeathed to the
government, on condition that his
daughters be paid 100000, which sum
scarcely exceeded the value Of the gold
and silver medals ores and precious
stones in his collection. Several 9TH

Sloane before the museum was formal
ly opened in Montagu house in 1859.

The home builder is often disap-

has been worked out after months of
study. Sometimes he doesn't realize
that the changes mean, perhaps, the
saving of a great many dollars in the
construction of the house. It would,
no doubt. have been more logical for
him to consider the house from the

CANADAS BONUS
TO FARM LABORERS
Offering 100 Acres to Farm
Hands.

Canada today, with the great de-
mand that is made upon it for food
stuffs, finds itself almost in the throes
solving the problem has been evolved
by the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, when it was de-
cided TO practically bonus every farm
hand going to Canada, by giving him
400 acres free as homestead, and to
allow the time he would be working out
for, the good wages offered. to count as
residence duties on the homestead.
Western Canada has been a big pro-
Queer of grain and it is estimated that
there is shortage of over thirty thou
sand men, necessary to produce an av-
erage crop in 1917. This shortage has
been caused by so many young men
having left the farms to go to war, and
it is essential to make an unprecedent-
ed offer of this kind to fill their places
on the land at once.
1t has been required in the past to
do three years duties on hOmesteads
to get title, but an additional induce
ment has been offered by practically
reducing this term to two years. AS
explained by an official of the Canadi-
an Government, Canada's need for
farm laborers is intense, and excep-
tiOnal inducements are being offered
to get the needed farm workers at
once. A farmland will make his en-
try for one of the 160-acre farms, sat
isfy the Government that he is work
ing for farmer and that time will APP
ply as residence on the land filed for,
just the same as if he was actually
living on it.-Advertisement.

It is cruel to force nauSeatIng,

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose" mother insisted
on--castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children It's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form OF
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides' are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup OF Figs. Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
OF mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet

given today saves a sick child tomor-

Young Animals May Be Quickly Re.

About Blood Heat.

Pigs that have been chilled may be
quickly revived by inmersing them to
the mouth in warm water (not hot, but
about blood heat). This is much to be
preferred to warming them by fire
because the heat is applied so much
more uniformly and quickly. The sup
position that such pigs never amount
to anything is altogether incorrect, for
they generally will live and thrive.
Failure to get results has usually been
due to the pigs having been actually
frozen or to the use of water that was
too hot.

KEEPING BULL IN CONDITION

rule that his bulls are altogether too
thin in flesh to do justice to themselves
or to him.
He is q rare man who can form an
accurate judgment of a young bull
when he is thin. The average buyer
wants to see young stuff in good,
smooth flesh. This does rot mean
over-fat but there are very few young
bulls which have been injured by car

year of their life. 1T takes feed and
plenty of it, to present young bull in

Almost everyone Who plans to build
house has an arrangement of rooms
formed in mind as the result of a
great deal of thought and discussion
with the different members Of the fam
lily. The room arrangement is nearly
considered as the primary restriction
upon the architects free hand in draw
ing uE the design. Unconsciously,
perhaps the prospective home builder
often places the architect in difficult
position because of this fact.
Because of his training, the architect
does not see the room arrangement
alone, but he sees various arrange
ments of partitions, one above the 9th
er SO that the floor and partition loads
will be carried down to the founda-
tons; he sees the installation of
plumbing in the most desirable in

in which this plumbing terminates,
