boys need this leadership all over the
country. Men not eligible for army
or navy. here is your chance. Become
Seoutmasters. Boy Scouts Of America.
Boy Leaders Must BE Developed.
But there Is still a greater reason
for organizing this important work at
this time. The entire boyhood of this
nation should be given the advantages
Of the Boy Scout Program at any cost.
Our obligation to the boyhood Of Amer
lea is greater now that We are at war
than ever before. No nation can az
ford 70 neglect its boys even in times
Of war.
England and France have Learned
this bitter lesson because OF the ire
mendous Increase in juvenile delin-
queucy since this war started. II the
authority OF the home Is broken down
because the father and the big brother
go into service. the increased tempta-
ICONS TO boyhood through the romance
and glamour OF war must be offset
by the helpful leadership and activities
that the Scout movement can provide.
or course it is essential to win this
war. but let US not forget how essen
tfal It IS that the boyhood OF this na-
ton be so conserved that when this
war Is over we may have a trained
young manhood to give leadership to
the destinies OF this nation.
If this war is to make the world safe
for democracy. let us make democracy
en- assured fact by handing it over to
the next generation who have based
their citizenship and life ideals upon
the Boy Scout Program.
To Fathers
The long f%oreboding days are over.
The desperate ransoming years of war
have come again to q generation that
never thought to see them. Our young
men are going and hay gone. We
others OF the meridian and the sunset
years must watch from the s~idelines
the game OF life and death. of fame.
and shame that IS being played for
the championship OF a world. with
eIenched hands we can plead with our
team to hold. and hold. and hold at the
Marine. We can shout as they batter
through the center at a Somme. We
can cheer in the ecstacy OF a sudden
gain around the end at Vimy Ridge.
From the sidelines We can help and
hearten and advise and give, all that
can be bought for money or wrought
for love or thought by experience but
We CAN'T GET IN OURSELVES.
What is left for US stay-at-homes to
dor There are many things. We can
pay our taxes without granddaughter
We receive them back many fold IN the
freedom of our land, the honor OF our
women and the securities Of our fam
flies. We can lend the government our
savings and without any undue boast
fulness-for we still own them plus
profits and interest. Yet never. never,
shall we save a world or our own
souls by paying taxes or lending loans.
Only giving. giving, giving. may We
who must stay by the stuff ransom
ourselves.
There are many to whom we should
give There are some To whom we
must give. The years have mustered

A SHAMPOO WORTH TRYING

1t is not necessary to shampoo your
hair SO frequently II it is entirely and
properly cleansed each time by the
use Of q really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
shampoo that we can recommend to
our readers 10 one that brings out all
the natural beauty of the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little expense,
by dissolving a teaspoonful of Can
throx, which can be obtained from any
druggist, in a cup of hot water. This
makes q full cup Of shampoo liquid,
enough SO It Is easy to apply It to ali
the hair instead Of Just to the top
Of the head. This when rubbed into
the scalp and onto every strand of
hair chemically dissolves all impure
ties. It is very soothing and cooling
In its action, as well as beneficial to
both scalp and hair. After rinsinx out
the lather so created, you will find the
scalp is fresh, clean and free from

Strangely enough, he was looking

him to hear a promising pupil; and
he (Casals) had thought his friend

particularly impressed by her voice,

personality. Which everyone knows
