SEA SCOUTS GROWING FAST.

The sea scout branch Of the Boy
Scouts of America are following a
modified plan for scouting along sea-
manship lines. This program has been
approved by eminent captains, adj
mirals and chiefs Of our merchant,
naval and nautical fleets.
In the larger scout centers sea
scouts are already numbered by hun
dreds. There is need of at least 10O,-
600 sea scouts.
The sea scout branch provides work
Of a harder but quite as interesting
character as main scouting.
Boats are built, drill masts rugged,
laws Of the sea studied and practiced
by means of homemade models, until,
when ready, the troop, or ships COM
pany, takes to the actual water, in
pond, river, lake or sea, and so pro-
crosses from one stage Of study to the
next, ending up, after year or so, as
able sea scouts.

BEARD TO BADEN-POWELL

In welcoming Maj. Gen. Sir Robert

tiOnal Scout Commissioner Daniel Car
ter Beard said:
'It is my great privilege and pleas
ant duty to extend to our guests of
hOnOr-Sir Robert Baden-Powell and
Lady Baden-POwell-a rousing well
come from the Boy Scouts of America,
and to say to them that we, the boys
Of America, have warm place in our
hearts for our cousins across the pond
and that we appreciate to the fullest
extent the great work they have done
for the cause of bOyhood in the old
world.
1.-The League of Nations, the king
doms and empires, the democracies,
revolutions and tumult of the old world
are the problems for the grave states
men to sOlve problems which will be
simplified in the next generation when
the boy scout idea is a world power.
Therefore, men like our distinguished
guest, who are working with the boys
and for the boys, are doing more for
lasting peace and history than all the
crowned heads and bomb-throWing
radicals the old world can produce"
