"Bruqes Ia Morte."

In lost corner of the great low
land fiat of Flanders, defended from
the sea by an artificial dixie, and at the
point of intersection of a net work Of
canals and waterways, there stands q
little town known to the Belgians as
Brugge and to the rest of the world as
Bruges. writes Niksah.
Fortunately for lovers of the quaint
and picturesque, this city with its slen-
der bell turrets, its lacelike gables and
decorated house fronts has so far been
spared the general devastation that fol-
lowed in the wake Of the invading Ger
mans. They call 1t "Bruges In mOrte"
and at every turn there is something to
remind The visitor of the decay that
has fallen upon the town. The ever
recurring view of picturesquely
grouped tower, gable and bridge, Of
wide tree-filled parks. breathes an at
mosphere Of infinite stiffness and
charm, which Is at the same time
strangely pathetic.

SIKH BOY SCOUTS IN CHINA.

China has new division of boy

the new order of Sikh boy scouts, and
they wear the conventional khaki with
pride, but it is their green and white

Many interested spectators watched
the ceremonies attending their organ
izatiOn. The boy scout troops Of Shang-
hal, the Wolf Cubs Cor junior scouts)
and the Sikh troop formed into three
sides of hollow square on the lawn
of the Sikh Gurdwara, and the young
Sikhs stood at attention in the center
while Sir Everard Fraser, K. c. NJ. G.,
British consul general and chief scout,
conducted the ceremonies.
The Sikh branch Of the boy scout
brotherhood is but another indication
of the way this movement is gaining
In popularity throughout China. Re-
ports come from all parts Of the coun-
try of the interest and enthusiasm
with which 1t Is being taken up.
One of the most pretentious displays
occurred in Picking recently, when over
a hundred of the Using Hua college
boys conducted boy scout exhibition
with much credit to themselves and
pleasure to the spectators.

ENDING "BOY PROBLEM"

G. F. Wycoff, head of the boy scout
movement in Terre Haute, recently
told the students of the Indiana State
Normal school that he spent last sum-
mer at the Chicago school for boy
scouts, working with 125 scouts who
city, and that he did not hear a single
word from those boys that was in any
way vulgar, which tends to show what
may be accomplished in the lives Of
the American boys through the carry
ing out of the purposes of the scout
plan.
"The scout plan has proved an excel
lent means of directing the boys into
the ways that will prove interesting
and at the same time instructive to
him." said he. Through it the boys
learn preparedness, responsibility, the
value of giving a square deal and fair
play to do things together. 1t is an
education for character by doing.
There are many boys who may
never be reached by the influence of
the school, church or home, but they
may be brought under the influence Of
the scout program and their energies
turned into useful channels.
The scout method puts on the one
side all the things that the boy is sup
posed to be and ON the other the things
that he wants to be and the two are
linked together In the plan as en-
bodied In the scout oath. The boy Is

This Is not the cross of a tyrant.
1t is not an iron cross. 1t is q token

So said Secretary w. G. McAdoo of
the United States treasury to four boy
scouts in Colorado Springs who had
performed distinguished services in the
first Liberty bond sale, as he pinned
upon each q bronze medal.
'The boy scouts of this country have
performed their work like real soldiers
in aiding the government in the sale
Of these Liberty bonds" continued Mr..
McAdoo. 'In my travels over the coun-
try have been forcibly impressed with
the spirit and enthusiasm of the boy
scouts"
AS each boy approached Mr.. WcAdoo
he gave the prescribed scout salute.
There was not a trace of embarrass-
ment-the scout training eliminates
that-but each lad received his decora-
ton, saluted and returned to his seat
amid veritable thunder Of applause.

figures.
The percentage Of casualties among
our allies has been decreasing. The
