Reports have been received at Nationa
Headquarters Of the Boy Scouts oi
America, indicating that boy named
Herman Buderus. has been misrepre-
senting himself as a member OF the
Boy Scouts OF America. His name does
not appear on the records. A report
received from a Scout Official in South
orange, n j., says: "A youth calling
himself Herman Buderus, was in South
orange early last week. He represented
himself as a wounded Belgian and wore
the uniform OF the Boy Scouts OF
America. He demanded the assistance

At the last meeting OF the Scoutmas-
ter's Association II was decided TO pro-
hibit the use OF the overseas cap" be-
ing worn by Scouts while In uniform.
Several times the Scouts have been ask
ed not TO wear parts OF uniforms from
other organizations. This cap does not
belong 10 the Scouts and they should
not wear II unless officially adopted by
national headquarters. Scoutmasters
win caution their Scouts about these
matters.
Boy Scout councils all over the coun-
try are beginning a vigorous campaign

observation Of the Scout oath and law.

troops as scoutmasters. there Is no
doubt that the Boy Scout movement

ment during the coming year.
One branch Of the Government al
Washington has instituted a campaign
10 discourage the use Of nicknames for
representatives OF our Allies. BOYS are
the ones who most of all perpetuate the
use Of undignifled appellations, and the
Boy Scouts OF America are invited TO
put their active ban on them.
THE use OF nicknames and names Of
10 America, is a considerable obstacle
in the way Of Americanization." says
Commissioner OF Education p. P. Clax-
Ton in a letter to Chief Scout Executive
West.
80 long as the foreisn-born person
feels that we do not respect him. he-does
not want TO join America, learn English
or become a citizen. With the help OF
the Boy Scouts Of America. we believe
the use OF such nicknames can be elm
mated 10 a very large extent"
The bureau believes that the Boy
Scouts Of America. who have pledged
themselves 20 be helpful, friendly, cour-
ieous and kind. will be glad TO adopt
this code: My name for = every true
man in these United States will be the
honorable name Of American"

We may want to speak and read

That, however, will depend entire

ON land, the humble bicycle is
coming into its own again. Boys

ESCAPED PRISON TO FIGHT
But Honor Prisoner Will Be Back
to Complete Contract When IT'S
Over Over There

Cleveland Plain Dealer: When
Michael OHara. honor penitentiary
prisoner, walked away from the
stone quarry last year and disap-
peared, he was not seeking merely
his own liberty. He went to Join
the armies that are fighting for the
liberty OF all the world. Nobody
knew it then, but the prison knows
it today.
Never word did the penitentiary
hear OF him until letter came the
other day the Warden p. +. Thomas.
1t came from the British army in
France, and O'Hara wrote:
ii the Huns don't get me, I'm
coming back when the war is over
TO finish my contract with the Sate." !"
Which was his way OF getting
past the censor the information that
after the war he intend, coming
back 10 Ohio to complete a peniten-
tiarv term.
