apples and torment their teachers
days-careles fellows who snap their
fingers in the face of ordered things.
But YOU have shown lis something diff.
ferent Perhaps in a by-gone day you,
too. climbed the farmers tree and un.
thinkingly ran away. But there was
nothing unthinSing in the proud smile
you flashed to the enemy of France.
You knew You understood!

L shrine in my memory to the BOY
Scout who died for France. How proud
the BOY Scouts of America must be of
him. their brother knight. But all
boys. whether they are fortunate
enough or not to be scouts. can profit
by the glorious thing this other boy
did. When they are tempted TO be
mean, when the finest thing 10 do is
not the thing they want to do. this
