A. FL. STARTS
LOCAL BRANCH
Maintenance of Way Men APP
ply For Charter; Small
Crowd. Much Interest

Rain, snow and sleet, and a big
railroad mass meeting, cut into the
attendance last evening at the organ
iZation session of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor. There was a meet
ing at Eagles Hall. and following a
series of addresses. a local branch
of Maintenance and Way employees
was started. Enough signers were
secured and Elex Glib. national or
ganizer, to-day applied for charter.
This will be the last meeting until
the campaign of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor formally opens
Monday night. Speeches last night
were by James Burns, representing
the Sheet Metal Workers: Alex Glib,
Maintenance of Way Branch, and p.
J. Conlan, Machinists. Brotherhood
representatives also spoke.
James Burns Talk
Speaker Burns in his address
pointed out that it was the American
Federation of Labor that brought
about the increase in wages, and
back pay. He told the railroad men
that records at Washington proved
this, and any statement to the con-
trary was falsehood and made for
the purpose of misleading unorgan-
lied workers
Announcement was made that the
campaign which will start Monday
is for the sole purpose of organizing
every branch of railroad men not
now affiliated with any labor organ
ization. The meeting Monday night
will be the first of a series to include
MONDAY talks.

/ is continuing along the whole front
/ from La Bassee canal north to Holle-
| beke. the Germans hammering hard
! in their desperate attempt to win
something substantial out of this
new ambitious effort of theirs. So
far its only definite result has been
the piling up of casualties on both
sides, notably their own.
Artillery Is Active
on the Somme battlefield there
has been no resumption of infantry
! engagements on large scale. The
British however. were subjected to
strong local attacks near Neuville-
Bitasse, southeast of Arras. all of
which they repulsed. The artillery
is reported increasingly active in the
vicinity of the Somme while Paris
announces a rather heavy lombard
ment along the French line to the
southeast of Amiens, in the vicinity
of Hangard.
Having pushed back the British
positions on front of twenty-five
miles, north and south of Armen-
there's, TO an average depth of a little
more than two miles. the Germans
are struggling desperately to in
crease their gains. The brilliant
defense of Field Marshal Haig, how
ever, is beginning to tell and the
enemy advance has slowed up great
ly although the German attacks
have not diminished in intensity,
especially on the north and in the
center.
Messines Ridge and Wytschaete
are the vital points on the battle
field, and the Germans in two days
have not been able to reach the
crest of the hills. Repulsed along
the ridge from the southern tip to
Wytschaete, the enemy has thrown
heavy forces against Hollebeke,
where the ridge declines and the
Npres-Menin Railroad and the
Npres-Comines Canal cut through.
At Hollebeke and Wtschaete, how
ever the British Ninth Division has
repulsed the enemy with heavy loss.
On the southern approach to the
ridge about Ploegstert and Ploeg-
stert Wood the Germans have made
small gains.

Boy Scout
Column
A SCOUTS RELIGION.

The Boy Scouts OF America maintain
that no boy can grow into the best kind
Of citizenship without recognizing his
obligation TO God. The first part of the
Scouth oath is. "On my honor I Will do
my best to do my duty to God ."
The recognition of God as the ruling
and leading power of the universe and
the grateful Acknowledgement Of His
favors and blessings is necessary 70 the
best type OF citizenship and is a whole
some thing in the education of the
growing boy. No matter what the boy
may be-Catholic, Protestant or Jew
this fundamental need Of good citizen
ship should be kept before him.
Therefore the Boy Scout sof America
recognizes the religious element in the
training of the boy but it Is absolutely
non-sectarian in it's attitude toward that
religious training It's policy IS that
tho church with which the boy is con-
nected shall give definite attention to his
religious life. If he is Catholic Roy
Scout then the Catholic church IS the
best channel for his training. II he be
Hebrew boy, then the Synagogue will
train him in the faith of his fathers. IF
he be a Protestant then the church OF
that particular denomination of Protest
antism to which he IS an adherent or
member should be the proper organiza-
ton to give him an education in the
things that pertain to his allegiance to
God. Scouting insists that the boys
religious life be fostered and stimulated
by the church with which he is con-
nected.
Scouting presents a greater oppor-
tunity for the development OF the boy
religiously than does any other move
ment instituted solely for the boys. 1t
aims to develop the boy physically.
mentally, and spiritually is widely
recognized.
The movement has been developed on
such broad lines as TO embrace all
classes, all creeds. and at the same time
to allow --.e greatest possible independ-
ence to individual organizations. officers
and boys.
One important point about all relis-
ions is that they involve the worship of
the same God. There Is but one leader
though there are many ways Of follow
ing Him. If Scout meets one of an
other religion, he should remember. that
he, too. is striving for the best. A Scout
should respect the convictions of others
in matters Of custom and religion.
The above plain statement OF the
stand of Scouting on the religious dues-
tion is taken from the handbook for
boys as published by the national or
ganization and is the policy followed by
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1918-10-17
