War Work For
Boy Scouts.

The government wants all kinds
of nut shells to make carbon for gas
masks of the soldiers. II is hoped
that each boy scout will bring in a
bushel of shells. One bushel of
shells is equal to bringing in one Ger
man prisoner, two bushels German
lieutenant, and three bushels, a cap
tain. Boys in various sections can
club together and try to bring in
more than boys from a neighboring
section. These shells are used by
the tons, because there are millions
of soldiers who use the gas masks
The carbon made from the nut shells
shuts out poison gas. All shells
from nuts used in households can be
saved and when a sufficient quantity
has accumulated ii can be turned
over to the Scouts. Schools should
have box for all nut shells and thus
do their share.
Let the Boy Scouts Of Garrard
take up this for their war work. Do
not for one moment think the war is
over. 1t cannot be over for months
yet and we must not stop even our
smallest work.
