SCOUTS HEAR INDIAN TALK

One night while camping on spot
where the celebrated repegade Indian
Simon Girty, camped about the year
1900, the members of Troop No 5 of
Williamsburg, Pa, were entertained
around the campfire by stories of those
pioneer days.
When their interest had been reused
to Il high pitch, they were startled by
seeing an Indian chief in full war cos
tune who suddenly stalked from tho
woods into the circle about the camp
fire
It was several minutes before any
boy felt sufficiently ut ease to ask any
questions. The chief broke the silence
by expressing himself as being inter
ested in the young palc-faee scouts
and their work. He explained to tho
boys the costumes and habits Of In
dtanS from the time they were horn
until they became warriors.
The scoutmaster, in inspecting tho
camp about midnight. was amused by
finding some stout clubs outside num-
Der of the tents. The scouts were pre-
pared for any less friendly visit which
might be paid during the hours of dark
ness.
