NEWS AND NOTES OF THE BOY S10uTS4
Drum and Flying Colors
to Head Scout Parade
Before the Next Rally

On previous scout rallies street
conditions did not permit much pa
rading, so on Monday evening Troop
Z will leave Harris and Susque-
hanna streets at 7.15 sharp, with
scouts in uniform. headed by a
drum and flying colors. Every
scout looks forward to these occa-
sions with much delight and pleas
ure.
The regular orchestra practice
was held last week at the home of
Blough Dechant, under the leader
ship of Joseph Goldstein. At the
conclusion of the session ]. w.
Dechant, who is a scout of a larger
growth, observed the motto. BE
Prepared" with lots of eats as his
appreciation of the orchestra.
Owing to the absence of W. L.
Bailey and the scoutmaster, the
weekly practice will be postponed
until Tuesday evening, March 10, at
234 Hamilton street. AS three pub
lie engagements have been sched-
uled in the near future, all orches-
ira scouts are to be on hand to
greet Mr.. Bailey.
The regular weekly meeting of
the troop, held temporarily on We'd
nesday evening, will be postponed
next week on account of the scout
rally. The scoutmastcr does not
want too much time taken from
preparation of school work. The
scouts are ready to do their bit in
the proper solicitation with the red
postcard, and any other work that
Uncle Sam may ask of them. With
the appeal of Postmaster Sites.
March 80 will be welcomed with
much pleasure.

STOP A MOMENT!
LISTEN TO THIS
Cincinnati man tells how to
lift off any corn without
hurting one bit


You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who
have at least once week invited an
awful death from lockjaw or blood
poison are now told by a Cincinnati
authority to use a drug called freez-
one, which the moment a few drops
are applied to any corn, the sore
ness is relieved and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts out with the
fingers.
1t is a sticky substance which dries
the moment it is applied and is said
to simply shrivel the corn without
infiaming or even irritating the sur
rounding tissue or skin. 1t is claim
ed that a quarter of an ounce of
freezone will cost very little at any
of the drug stores, but is sufficient
to rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or callus.
You are further warned that cut
ting at corn is a suicidal habit.

Has Visited Grave
of Every President

Pennsburg, Pa.-The second man
in the United States known to have
visited the tomb of every President
of the United States is Rev. William
u. Kistler, pastor of st. Marks Lu-
theran Church. While Mr.. Kistler
was accomplishing this feat he
heard of railroader who had been
to the tomb of every President and
reports showed that he was the first
to do this. To Rev. Kistler, there
fore, go the second honors for this
accomplishment.
Several years ago Mr.. Kistler culti-
waited a desire to stand at the tomb
of every President of the United
States. Some time later he took a
trip to Washington as the first lap
in accomplishing his desire. Two
other trips followed and he has
finally co npleted the task.
On his first trip he visited the
tombs of George Washington at Mt.
Vernon; Thomas Jefferson, at Mon
ticello, Va; James Monroe and John
Tyler at Richmopd, Va; James
Madison, Montpelier, Va; and
James Buchanan, Lancaster, Pa.
The second trip was through the
New England States and the entire
trip to Concord, n. II, was made by
trolley. o. this trip he visited the
tombs of Grover Cleveland, Prince.
ton, n. J.; u. S. Grant, New York;
John Adams and John Quincy
Adams, at Quincy Mass; Franklin
Pierce, at Concord, n. H.; Chester
A. Arthur, near Troy, n. Y, and
Martin Van Buren, at Undertook,
N. Y.
The following tombs were visited
on the final trip: James Garfield,
Cleveland, Ohio; William Mckinley,
Canton, o.; Rutherford Hayes, Free
mont, o.; William Henry Harrison,
North Bend; Benjamin Harrison,
Indianapolis, Ind; Abraham Lin
coin, Springfield, ILL.,! Zachary Tay-
lor, near Louisville, Ky; James X.
Polk, near Nashville, Tenn; An
drew johnson, Greenville, Tenn.
Mr.. Kistler has a photograph of
each of the monuments. He also
carried a notebook at the time of his
visits and recorded the size of the
monuments and markers, the kind
of architecture, material used and
the inscription on each.

Boy Scouts often hear people say
that man has more luck than any
one" Many people, when they speak
of Columbus, say, my, wasn't he
lucky?" Christopher Columbus was
mt lucky. He was mere man,
with human inclinations. But the
reason for his success was: he
stuck to his ambitions, believing
that he was in the right. A famous
general once said, 'Be sure you're
right, then go ahead" Columbus
was confident that he was in the
right, and he inspired his sailors to
belief in him. And, when they be-
came discouraged, it was his own
magnificent personality that kept
the ship sailing toward the western
sky.
There are many times when the
Ignorant and unwise associates may
scoff and revile, but, if you are
sure you are right, tgo ahead, and
you will find your own new country.
Perhaps it may not be a new con-
tinent, but it will be what you ex-
pected. Energy rightly directed, al
ways has it's reward. If you SOW,
you will always reap. Learn from
Columbus, the value of pluck and
ambition; belief in yourself.

A Dead Stomach
Of What Use Is It?

Thousands? yes hundreds of thou
sands of people throughout America
are, taking the slow death treatment
They are numbering their own
stomach, the best friend they have,
and in their sublime ignorance they
think they are putting aside the laws
of nature.
This is no sensational statement;
it is a startling fact, the truth of
which any honorable physician will
not deny.
These thousands OF people are
swallowing. daily huge quantities Of
pepsin and other strong digesters,
made especially to digest the food
in the stomach without any aid at all
from the digestive membrane of the
stomach.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets relieve
distressed stomach in five minutes
they do more. Taken. regularly for
a few weeks they build up the run
down stomach and make it strong
enough to digest it's own food. Then
indigestion, belching, sour stomach
and headache will go.
Mio-na stomach tablets are sold
by druggists everywhere and by II.

The Rally will come off Monday
night. Be at the Armory at 7.30
The bunch ought to be pretty well
up on the stunts by this time as
there has been ample time to prac-
tice each event during the time the
building was closed to us. Let every
scout turn out on Monday night and
see just how much punch each troop
can put into a real rally.
War Service looms up before the
scouts more, than it has at any time
since our country entered the war
This spring will find the scouts hard
at work on a multitude of tasks
for Uncle Sam. Each fellow should
realize that the work he. is called
upon to do is Vitally important OIL
the Government wouldn't clutter UP
its machinery by asking the scouts
to undertake it. There will be
many night when you fellows will
go without supper because you are
out on tasks for the Red Cross, or
selling w. S. S. But think of your
bigger brothers lover there and
what they are going through.
The Red Postcards are for use
every day this year. Don't get the
Iued tnaL JnlS is weeks or q
months work. This is a permanent
job, and you must be on the job
every minute you can possibly get
away from school duties and home
work. Run up a score that will
make the United States officials
proud that they asked the scouts
to help in this. Remember, every
time you get a Red Card signed il
helps the letter carrier, too.
The BIG DAY will soon be here
1t is Saturday, March 30th. That's
the day that EVERY scout is going
to turn out on the streets of Harris
burg and sell stamps for the Gov
ernment. Start getting your steam
up now.

Camp Hill Ends Cage
Schedule For Season

Camp Hill High school manage
ment has been compelled to cancel
the remainder of the scheduled
games for the season on account of
the poor condition of three players.
Two players are unable to play on
account of illness and third is just
recovering from sickness. These
men being the best players on the
team, the management could not see
any other way out of the difficulty.
To put men of the scrub team into
the varsity would weaken the squad
considerably and it is doubtful but
what the team would lose every
game on the schedule.
Victories Looked Certain
Officials were confident in winning
three of the four remaining games
as they were scheduled for the Cam p
Hill floor. The team was scheduled
to meet Hershey High. at Hershey,
last week; Myerstown tonight, Pal
myra High in a return game on
March % and Annville High in re-
turn game on March 80 were sched-
uled for the Camp Hill floor.
The team, although winning but
five of fourteen contests, made a
good showing, losing several of the
games on foreign floors by close
scores. This was still better than last
year when the team made up of
more experienced men lost eleven
contests.
