WHAT THE BOY SCOUTS DO.

The world interest In the boy scout
movement challenges the intelligent
understanding of every one, and yet
many people still ask "What is scout
ingf' and What do boy scouts dor
The boy scout idea is movement
rather than an organization. 1t aims
TO supplement existing organizations
such rs the home, church and school
hy engaging the boys leisure energies
in outdoor games and activities Of
cultural and practical value.
The aim Of the scout movement Is
to inculcate character which, though
essential Ia success In life, Is not
taught within the school, and being
largely n matter of environment is too
generally left to chance, often with
dcplorable results. The scout move
ment endeavors to supply the required
environment and ambitions through
games and outdoor activities, which
lead n boy TO become better man,
good citizen.
