SCOUTS ARE FINEST LoYALIsTs.

When this affair with the wild men
OF Berlin is over and we begin to dis
tribute honors and rewards, something

struck Off for the boy scouts, says the
Detroit Journal. They are somewhat
overshadowed today by their elders,
but their labors, eager and ungrudged.
are Of high importance.
Is there to be a paradei The boy
scouts must be called out to guard the
lines and to help the police handle the
crowds. Is there to be a patriotic
meeting? Why, there you'll see the
scouts acting as ushers and keeping
the entrances cleared. The youngsters
not merely march to weariness to
further the Liberty loans, but also they
hustle for subscriptions themselves.
There are no more practical patriots,
no Americans more through and
through American.
1t will be problem to decide what
to give the scouts who are giving so
greatly of their best. II cannot be
anything small.

SCOUTS HALT PENNY FAMINE

Uncle Sam has found another real
war job for his great army of scout
uniformed boys. They are to be or
ganized into ''penny brigade" and
VIII make one grand charge TO help
relieve the penny famine.
No longer need the little lad. brave
In his boy scout uniform, watch with
envy his more fortunate brother who
has donned the khaki of his country.
He can do his part at home, as he did
In the Liberty Loan canvass.
Postmaster w. B. Carlile of Chicago
suggests that the young patriots climb
up to certain shelf where rests the
penny savings banks of the younger
members of the family, usually sacred
to the memory Of Christmas, and have
father or mother change the pennies
for dollars, half-dollars, quarters,
dimes and nlckels. The pennies are
to be spent with the butcher, the ba-
ker. the grocer and the landlord, or
they may be put into circulation In
any other way.
MIR. Carlile believes this outpouring
of pennies from the chlldren's banks
Of the country will be a big lift to
Uncle Sam in meeting problem
brought about by conditions due to the
war. The post Office is feeling the
penny shortage the same as all busl-
ness houses. The government h un-

ONE BOY SCOUTS "PRAYER."

Scout A. Page OF Chicago, wrote this
letter to the Chicago Herald:
To the Editor: The prayer learned
at kindergarten runs through my head
every morning before I'm fairly awake,
The first line goes all right, but what
do you think of the othersf They've
bothered me a lot.
Now before we work today,
We must not forget to pray
To God. who kept us through the night
And brought us TO the morning light.
Help us, Lord. 20 lick the Kaiser
And make him see he had been wiser
Not 10 walt till he was C led up
To learn he couldn't eat the world up.
'Tain't made TO eat, he can't digest II

So help us, Lord, TO whack Il to him.
And never stop until We do" him.

SCOUTS ALWAYS MAKE GOOD.

"Since the Boy Scouts Of America
have taken over the responsibility Of
distributing the food conservation
cards. believe its success is assured"
said prominent citizen of Birming-
ham, Ala. Everything that boy scouts
ever have undertaken has proved a
great success. The scout organization
seems to bring out the very finest quail
tiles In boys, and among the most ex-
cellent of these Is their feeling of pride
In responsibility and determination to
meet that responsibility.
II never yet have known a scout to
fall down on a job or to fail to show
up where and when he was expected
to. They are a fine army of soldiers
and a great bunch to have In behind
any phase of the government work
that such boys can manage"

Hartford for leave 10 hold lottery for

The general assembly granted their
petition, but IL was not until 1777 that
the lottery was drawn and the funds
secured. AT that time the Revolution
airy war had begun and most of the
money was used for the defense of
the village; the remainder which had
been invested in continental bills,
was lost by reason of their complete
depreciation.
Captain Palmer and His House.
Capt. Nathaniel Palmer, when only
boy Of twenty-one. became master Of
the sloop Hero and sailed on a sealing
voyage to the South Shetland islands.
Whaling and sealing ventures brought
wealth to Stonlngton shipowners and
captains, but this voyage of Captain
Palmer resulted In find" more valu-
able than any cargo, however rich.
The find" was the Antarctic conti-
nent.
The Hero was one OF a squadron Of
vessels that reached Yankee Harbor,
Deception island. during the season Of
lS2O-21. 1t was from that place that
the lookout, on an unusually clear day
discovered a volcano in action. Cap
tain Palmer was dispatched in the
Hero. a sloop Of only As tons burden.
to examine the mountain and the re-
gion In which 1t was situated. The
boy sailed safely across the uncharted
sea and found an unknown continent.
The home of the discoverer of the
Antarctic continent still stands in
Stonington and is now the Wampos-
sett inn. Like its old owner, II has
withstood the buffetings of the sea.
In great September gale which swept
the coast century ago, this house was
lifted from its foundations by the
force of the waves and dropped into
the cellar. As there were no jack
screws In those days, the building was
gradually brought back into place by
wedges.
Stonington "before the war" was a

NY THE peaceful waters of Long

torious conflicts of the past.
The summer visitor is now the only in
vader and even he is oftentimes con-
quered by the beauty Of sea and shore.
IL he loves the flavor of 'ntiquity. his
fate is sealed and Stonington has add
ed one more to the list of her con-
quests.
What other Connecticut town was
ever the scene of an American victory
over the British? Stonington twice
defeated the naval forces of England I;
once in 1775 and again In 1871
The conquests Of the old town were
not. however, limited to battle alone.
The sea was hers, traversed as IL was
by her whaling and sealing ships as
well as by her passenger packets. The
unknown corners of the earth acknowl-
edged her supremacy, for Stoning-
ton captain was the first to see the
Tanning islands. and Capt. Nathaniel
Palmer discovered the Antarctic con-
tinentp
In the world of art, James MacNeill
Whistler was pioneer spirit, and
Whistler lived at two periods of his
life In Stonington.
After the long series of conquests,
beginning with the Indian and ending
with the summer visitor, Stonington
now enjoys the fruits of victory. In
peace she sits under her ancient elms,
while the harbor waters lap her shores
and surge beneath the ruined wharves.
1t is recorded that Rufus Choate once
said of Stonington that 1t was the only
place he had ever seen that was en-
tirely finished.
Spirit Of lts Early Settlers.
The spirit that moved Stonington to
defy the British on the Goth of August,
1775, more than ten months before the
signing of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, was indigenous to the COM
munity. In fact, the earliest settlers
of the region. in 1853. published their
own Declaration of Independence.
After Massachusetts and Connecticut
had united to overthrow the PeQuot
Indians. each colony claimed the con-
