SCOUTING KEEPS BOY BUSY.

Conservation of our natural re-
sources is universally approved, but
of what value would material re-
sources be unless we conserve the
moral, intellectual and physical future
of the coming generation?'
Prevention Is recognized as better
and less expensive than cure The
boy scout movement takes the boy at
that time of life when he is beset with
the new and bewllderlng experi enoes
of adolescence and diverts his thoughts
therefrom to wholesome and worth
while activities. In this manner this
MISUNDERSTANDING movement has done
much in numerous cities to diminish
the problem of juvenile delinquency.
We are mt war. War brings a re-
taxation OF moral fiber, which is dis
astrous to our youth unless offset by
powerful positive influences. Scout
Ing is just saaeh powerful, positive
counteracting influence. Its program
Offers the essential antidote for these
poisons of war.

GLOWING PICTURE
PAINTED BY HURLEY
AMERICA IN 1920 TO HAVE A
MERCHANT MARINE OF IS.
100000 HEAVYWEIGHT TONS.
Largest Fleet in Worlds History Will
Bridge the Pacific and Enable Latin
American Countries to Utilize
Unlimited Natural Resources,

South Bend, Ind.-America in 1920
Will have a merchant marine Of
2o,Uu0,O00 lightweight tons, Chairman
Hurley of the shipping board declared
here on June 10 in an address giving
the most complete statement of the
nations shipbuilding program, which
has yet been made public. He was
speaking to the graduates of Notre
Dame university.
This great commerce fleet, Mr.. Hur-
ley said, the largest ever assembled in
the history of the world, and involving
the expenditure of more than five bill
lions of dollars, will link the United
States to South and Central America
by weekly steamer service which will
enable the Latin-American countries to
utilize their unlimited natural re-
sources in the freest competition
with other nations. 1t also will bridge
the Pacific for the transportation of
the products of Japan, Russia, China,
Australia and the orient, and will con-
tinue to promote Americas trade with
Europe.
And, with it all, he added, Ameri-
can ships will serve humanity loyalty
and unseltshly upon the same prin-
ciples of liberty and justice which
brought about the establishment of
this republic"
1.-THE vast merchant fleet we are
building" said Mr.. Hurley, ''must be-
come the greatest instrument of inter-
national probity, honesty and square
dealing at the close of the war. II
must become the vast and vital ma.
chine whereby America will prevent
the oppression of the weak by the
strong; the crushing of right by
might"

ROADS
TRACTOR AIDS ROAD MAKING
Successfully Used In New Hampshire
In Conjunction With Regulation
Road Machine.

In Atkinson, n. H., the farm tractor
has been successfully used In making
and preparing roads, doing away with
horses.
A 2O-horse-power tractor, as shown
in the picture, was used in conjunc-
ton with the regulation road machine
for rounding off the surface of the
road and cleaning out cutters. 1t was
found that the tractor not only easily
does the work of six or eight horses,
bat better and in less time. Two men
only are required as compared with
four required with the former system.
Besides. double the ground is covered.
When the tractor Is used with the
road drag, one man, driving the trac-
tor. can round up and smooth as much
state road in half day as one man
with a pair of horses in one day and
half. The tractor hauls four to six

OUR LITTLE MEN IN KHAKI

We grown-ups used to smile to see the
boy scouts marching by,
With feet in time to beating drum and
heads SO proudly high,
But since the war we've changed our
minds little. have We not?
We have found those kids in khaki to
be Johnnies-on-fhe-spot.
How many weary miles they've trudged
In helping to revive
The interest in the Liberty loan and in
the Red Cross drive"
From alley and from avenue, from every
class and creed
Came our little men In khaki when their
country was in need.
They have answered, Father Woodrow,
four hundred thousand strong,
To help you In your struggle to right a
frightful wrong.
From Yankeeland and Dixie and the prai-
ries of the West,
the little men In khaki all are giving of
their best.
Our older lads have taken arms to free
the human race
or war and all its horror. Have we
thought who'd take their place
At homeland in the trench? Who knows
how long the war may last?
Twill be "the kids in khaki who are
growing up so fast!

Department Officials Everywhere Join
in Teaching the Boys.
SCOUT! MAN is DROWNING!

The scout game of lifesaver Is a
f1rst-aid game and should be played
often. Otherwise, when the real thing
happens, some day. we shan't be
ready. Many a swimmer is drowned
every summer trying to rescue a
drowning comrade from having no no.
ton Of how to do it.
The game is great fun and is played
with five teams of two players each,
There are two classes of players: the
savers" and the "drowners." Five
drowners go out from shore GER
tain distance and pretend they are
drowning. Five savers swim out to
bring them In.
1t is unfair for a drOwner to as
sist himself in any way once a saver
gets hold on him. Any hold is per-
missible, but care must be taken to
keep the drOwner's head above water.
The first saver who brings his bur-
den safely across the line is the win
ner. There should be starter, who
will also referee the game.
There are many possible variations
to add excitement and try skill, as for
instance requiring the savers to skin
off their clothes Tor some of them)
after the starting signal is given.

OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
OF sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, 'Take for
example DR.. Kilmers Swamp Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that 4 know of
has SO large SALE
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the SUCCESS of DR.
Kilmers' Swamp Root is due to the fact
that, so many people claim, it fulfils al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutraliDes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper

RIGHT SYSTEM OF HIGHWAYS
II Should Include Everything From
Expensive Concrete to Minor
Dirt Wagon Ways.

What we need and in time will have
is system Of highways which will
ramify from the largest cities to the
doorway of the humblest citizen--vil-
lager or farmer. Such a system of
highways will include trunk lines with
expensive concrete or brick surfaces
for the very heavy traffic, including
trucks and automobiles. Less used but
important roads may be of waterbound
macadam or gravel. Perhaps In GER
tain regions where stone and gravel
are not at hand oiled roads may prove
most economical and practical Minor
wagon ways must remain of native
SOIL built and maintained with the
road drag. Meanwhile antagonism to
road dragging breeds in lack Of In
formation or a narrowness which fails
to comprehend the facts.-D. Ward

EXPERIMENTS TO BE TRIED
Temporary improvement Of Sand
Roads to Be Made by Use Of Straw,
Hay or Wire Grass.

For the first time an experiment in
temporary improvement of deep sand
roads by use of carpet of straw, hay.
or wire grass, sprlnkled with tar or
bituminous produce. will be tried on
Wisconsin highways In the vicinity Of
Ria. Columbia county. 1t is hoped to
devise methods which will fit the road
for travel at small expense. and 1t is
predicted that this straw carpet will
last three years where traffic is not
heavy. Other experiments In resur-
facing Highways are to be tried on
the Baraboo-Kilbourn road. Thirty
four hundred sections have been
staked out, and treatment Of each
will be different.

Benefit OF IMPROVED ROADS
Make It Possible to Consolidate and
Establish Graded Schools In Ru-
raj Districts.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
That improved roads would benefit
our country-school system there would
seem to be no doubt. Good roads make
It possible to consolidate or centralize
the schools and to establish graded
schools in the rural districts. Such
schools centrally located will accom-
mo6ate all of the children within
radius Of four or five miles. In many
communities having the advantage Of
improved roads commodious buildings
have been provided, more competent
teachers employed, and modern facili-
ties for teaching supplied at a mini
