SLACKERS QUOTED

New York, July 1.-The collection fof bounties on bears, foxes, pacif1sts and skunks has become next to a. lost art in Manhattan, and with the ad- vent of the warm weather the open
 season on animals known VariouslY as lounge lizards and couch coottes, which infest the Broadway trotteries in the winter time, also has come to a close. Wherefore the news that the
 government will pay $50 a head to | the cops in the vermin extermination I section of the police department for
 eveny wilful delinquent bagged for
 evading the selective draft law has brought happiness and renewed en- ergy to many an underpaid bluecoat.
 A wilful delinquent, under dragt
 board rulings, is a too cowed to fight :, person who has registered for the i draft but has failed thereafter to file his questionnaire. Not all humans
 who have registered but purposely have fallen down on the question

 times being such that the delinquent just escapes being classed as "wilful.'

HAVE YOU SUGAR 7.
 FOR YOUR CANNING?

Owing to the present great shortage of sugar, there is a tendency toward a considerable decrease in canning. In spite of this shortage, however, every bit of produce must be saveds-and can be.
 There are several substitutes which may be used in canning fruits and ma king jellies-chief of which are corn syrup and sugar beet syrup. The ad- vantage of the sugar beet syrup is that the beets may be grown in your own garden and the syrup made in your kitchen.
 If you want to make some of this syrup for your home use we are ready to help you. We have a. limited sup ply of sugar beet seed which we shall give away as long as the supply holds out. With each package of seed we will send directions for growing the beets and making the syrup.
 Do you want to be one of the few to carry out this project this year? If so, fill out the coupon below and mail to us, and we will gladly forward you the seed-f you do not hesitate so long that the seed is all gone before your request comes in.

BRIDGEPORT BOY
 SCOUTS SUMMER.
 CAMP SESSIONS
Location on Still River Is ideal for a Vacation Out
 of Doors for the Boys.

Once more the Bridgeport Boy Scouts are taking to the fields with the birds and seeking the old swim ming hole where twice a day in their summer camp on the Housatonic you may see them splashing in the water with great glee and considerable noise.
 The Bridgeport Scout Council has provided a permanent camp near the beautiful gorge on the Housatonic river about one-hah mile east of the Still River station. Parents enjoy the fine motor trip week ends to visit the boys. It is very refreshing to see the little shy smile light up the faces of the youngsters when some one calls on the opposite shore for a boat and John or Tom recognizes mother and father.
 The tents are all in one street line. Owing to the larger boys having been encouraged to do their bit this sum- mer by working in the shop and on the farm only the younger boys are left for camp. Therefore, the line of tents this year looks small compared with the long street of tents which we had last year.
 Last Saturday you could see Scout master T1lton and Mrasko boosting tents, Deputy Commissioner Maitland and Scoutmaster Storrs putting the bunks together. The cook was getting bthe grease off the dishes and thinking lup what she would have to prepare to i'll the large capacity being devel- oped within her hearing. Walter Ty- Ter of Troop No. is everywhere mak- ing himself useful with his usua courteous manner and friendly smile That noise over there is Jack StorrS dancing la Isadore Duncan.
 i The outdoor fire place was besiege6 in the evening and some 300 marsh mallows were consumed while the camp fire snapped and crackled.
 Mrs. Chalcraft, our cook, certainly can deliver the goods. That bee stew Tuesday noon with the vegeta bIes playing submarine and the deli cious gravy followed fby liberal DOT ton of pudding put a large smile or every scouts mouth and a warn comfy feeling in his tummy.
 Scouts are arriving daily and it it expected that as reports come back O the good time they are having man! more scouts will prevail mother ana father to loosen up with the required $5.25 a week. As a matter of fact thu parents will find it a. rather difficul matter to feed good strong husk! chap on $5.25 for seven days and it il a better business investment to senC "a boy to camp.
 That tired fellow, over there is jus Scoutmaster Hilton taking a rest. Ina loud noise down on the water edge il only the executive encouraging Scou Tyler to play Steeple Jack and pu the halyards in shape to fly "Olt Glory" Oh, yes, there Is another noise there. It is MT. Maitland laugh ing while Storrs is handed a bouque after his dance which turns out to b' z a sprig of cedar.
 Scoutmaster John Joraleman is il charge for few rays this week ant the executive is very well pleased with the manner in which MT. Jorale man Is conducting the camp.
 Any one wishing to register fo camp after Saturday of this weel must do so by mail, as the executiv' will be in camp from Saturday unti next Tuesday and Miss Wright vii be on her vacation for one week.
