Chicago home needs II. and We believe
that, like everything that East Chicago
undertakes 10 do she does it-goes over
the top This campaign for $4,000
for the boys Of our city will be no ex-

The BOY scouts II America maintain
that no boy can grow into the best
kind of citizenship without recognizing
his obligation to God. The Scouts oath
to which every boy pledgs himself. is.

to do my duty TO God and % my coun-
try" The recognition of Cod as the
ruling and leading power Of the uni-
verse and the grateful acknowied gment
Of His favors and blessings is necessary
TO the best type Of citizenship and IS q
wholesome thing in the education Of q
growing boy. No matter what the boy
may be-Catholic. Protestant or Jew
this fundamental need of good citizen
ship should be kept before him. The
Boy Scouts of America as an organized
body. therefore recognize the religious
element in the training Of a boy. bat
ii is absolutely non-sectarian in its
attitude toward that religious training.
Its policy is that the religious organiza-
ton or institution with which the Boy
Scout is connected shall give definite
attention to his religious life. If ne Re
d Catholic Boy Scout the Catholic church
of which he is a member is the best
channel for his training If he be a
Hebrew boy then the syna gogue Will
train him in the faith Of his fathers.
If he be a Protestant no matter Of
what denomination OF Professionalism he
may belong. the church of which ne is
an adherent or member should be the
proper Organization to give him an
education in the things that pertain 70
his allegiance to God OF course. it is
a fundamental principal of the Boy
Scouts Of America to insist upon clean,
capable leadership in its scoutmasters,
and the influence Of the leader on the
Boy Scout should be Of a distinctly
helpful character
