SCOUTING SPIRIT DID IT.

With every reason to feel proud Of
membership in the Boy Scouts of
America because Of the gracious words
Of President Wilson as well as the
commentator Of Secretary Of the
Treasury McAdoo, it behooves all in
scouting to guard against having this
very thing a negative influence to
boys.
The spirit that should be encouraged
Is often expressed by the scout who Is
doing heroic net or an especially
meritorious good turn makes light of
the effort to bestow praise upon him
and dismiss the subject with the char
acterization, "Oh, shucks! any scout
would do this" or II was simply doing
my duty"
After oil, the achievement was made
possible because Of two factors: first,
organization. and, second, the spirit
Of scouting.

THE FIRST LINE TRENCHES IN
NORTH DAKOTA

The farmers are holding the first
line trenches in North Dakota. The
effectiveness with which they are
holding these trenches depends on
how much crop is put in and how well
it is put in. Food is one of the most
important things in winning the war.
Not only must the soldiers be fed,
but the civilian population that are
manufacturing and transporting the
munitions and The supplies needed by
the farmers, manufacturers and
transporters in order that all may be
equipped for doing the most effective
work. Now is the time when the
farmers must go over the top. The
crop that is not put in will not help
win the war. The acres not in crop
are Stacker Acres. Extension Divis-
