WHAT FOREIGN SCOUTS DO.

We must produce food as never be-
fore to keep America for Americans.
Secretary Houston urges the boy
scouts to double their production Of
food in 1918. 1t can be done. The
scouts of every country in the world
have made good.
Belgian boys carried dispatches
through the very enemy's lines when
the most skillfully trained soldier cou-
riers failed. Belgian scouts gave up
their lives rather than betray the Sc
crets OF their country.
French and English scouts have
many times secured information abso-
lutely necessary for the safety of their
countries armies.
Certain 1t is that American boys
would live up to the records made by
these European scouts, even to the CIV
ing up OF their lives If their country
needed these supreme sacrifices.
American scouts, scoutmasters and
scout commissioners already are In the
trenches Of Liberty's front lines de-
Tending civilizations freedom from
barbarian onslaught.

SCOUTS AIDING THE NAVY.

Immediately following the declara-
hon Of war steps were taken to effec-
lively organize, along lines similar to
the coast guard work of the Boy
Scouts of England, older boys special
ly selected in order that there might
be available resource for use by the
navy department, should the occasion
warrant.
Special organizations were perfect
ed covering a large part of the Allan
tic coast line, and in each case the boy
enrolling secured speela permission of
his parents. All of their work was
done privately.
The boys agreed to hold themselves
In readiness for any emergency call.
They also undertook to make a careful
survey of the actual conditions in a
definitely prescribed territory SO that
there might be available information
as to the full resources of the COM
munity in case of disaster, including a
list of all houses suitable for hospital
purposes, names of all doctors, infor-
nation about all automobiles, motor
boats. etc, which might be of service.
In addition to this, in some of the
naval districts, boy scouts co-operated
In the early days of the war in locating
unlawful wireless stations.

BRITISH SCOUTS WAR WORK

Harry Lauder, the famous Scotch
comedian, on his recent appearance in
Omaha, Neb.. said Of the work Of the
scouts in England:
There are at present 100000 boy
scouts engaged in work in England
that hitherto had been performed by
men. Their work Is such that we'll
trained boy can accomplish as well as
well-trained man. Carrying mes
sages across the country, helping
wounded soldiers after their return
from the battle front and thousand
other things keep the lads busy all the
time. They are an important factor in
England's destiny. The British boy
scout is doing a great work today In
the service of his country.
'"The man. the soldier. Is the bull
dog as 1t were. and the boy scout Is
the ferret There are 10000 Of these
boys actively guarding Britain. With
their keen little eyes and their quest
for romance and excitement they are
playing a great part in guarding our
sea-girt shore.
ITO be a boy scout is to be u discip-
lined good boy. Good boys make good
men. good men make good citizens,
and good citizen Is always respected.
Every boy as well rs every man must

That meat is squab-young pigeon
At last squads appear about to come

of meat supply.
This transformation is due, in large
measure, to the energy and patriotic
action of the American SQUAD Breed

association extends to about 10,0OC

Logic, having lodged itself in the

to explain why she finds so many good
reasons for taking to trousers. She
still walks in skirts, but she rides,
swims, hunts, keeps bees, gardens

logic that explains her taking to pa

ANYWAY. the fact stands that In

Every poultry keeper, therefore, who

will need to exercise care from the

their growth is regular. not subject at

All other factors in egg production are

upon regularity of development. With
