BASIS OF GOOD SCOUTING.

Talking about knots. says Scout Com
missioner Prize Macdonald In address
ine gathering Of seautmaSterS. the
actual tying of the knot is an asset
when we'll done, but doing It we'll Is
infinitely more valuable than the
tying Of the knot. By way Of illustra-
ton the clovehitch. which Is the knot
that is used to so over Spite. is one
of these. You cannot teach this In
class. You have to take every boy
separately and teach Il to him.
You have to put your arms around
that youngster and take his grubby lit
tie hands in yours and you have to
show him how that thing is done with
absolute dead certainty every time.
You have To get him SO he is able to
throw Ii and he dead sure it Is there
every time. You have to get him so
that he IS sure OF himself. You have
to teach him that knot from every pos
sihle angle, and youngsters love 1t when
they do it so well that they are proud
OF ii.
II YOU don't teach boys to do things
just so well, leave scouting alone. That
Is all there Is TO scouting. You have
to learn yourself how to do those things
not merely the tying of knots, but the
doing of all things well.

OUTLOOK FOR ROAD MAKING
Eather Dubious on Account of Short
age Of Labor-Decidcd Reforms
Should Be Made.

With the shortage of labor for road
making and the more general use OF
he roads for heavy hauling, 1t is like
y that the roads as they exist will not
e able to withstand the hard usage,
md the outlook is dubious for the au-
omobile. Many industrial companies
are making use OF fleets of trucks TO
deliver their goods, instead Of subject
ing themselves to the uncertainties of
the railroad service and the wear and
ear on the roads thus made use of is
more than they can take care of. This,
nore than ever. makes 1t evident that
there should be some very decided re-
forms made in the matter of road
building. The n.akeShift repairs which
have heretofore been made are not
now sufficient, and all new road-build
inG work should be made on the most
substantial lines.
