viii be created, if possible, for eacr
county. Conferences will be held as
often as possible. One of the biggest
factors in the work will be the Ameri-
can Standard Prog am.
The Standard Program
This program is intended to provide
Tor all sides of a boys life, to encour-
age him in equal develo pment OF his
mind, body, spirit and capacity for SER
vice. 1t is graded TO meet the needs OF
growing boys, and a wide range of op-
tons is provided in order to facilitate
its use among the different classes If
boys in different iarts of the country.
1t provides fer the country 10y as Wei
as for his city tou in. for the school
boy and the boy who works. 1t is a
program that Can he taken by the in
diydual boy but is best taken in
group. 1t IS also adaptable where a
federation of groups is desired. It il
fundamentally a program rather, than
an organization and can be used in
supplemental way by any existing or
program Of an Crganiza ton. 1nitia-
ton ceremonies are furnished which
can be used or not as the leader de-
sires. The same is true of badges and
the names of different degrees.
Each boy is interviewed carefully and
without hurry, and his Attachments are
compared with Ger ain stan ard which
is set forth in the program FIR his age.
On the basis of this interview he s
given credits and these credits are
placed on 4 charted outline from these
his line of balance is drawn
The four subjects considered in yerti-
cal columns are: Intellectual. Physical,
Religious and Service. These columns
g AIDE down through ten horizontal In IS
from 1907 down to 2or. All above the
900 line is above the Honor line From.
9GGc down to 1919 is above the STANDARD
line of balance. From 1917 down to 500
is above the average line of balance.
There are eight subjects under each
standard for grad ng the boy. He is
ranked on these on the basis of 1000 OBJ
tainatle points for each standard. The1
his Inc is run across the char. raisen
or lowered according to his rank in the
standards.
The result shows whether the boy IS
symetrically developed
BY this program and chart the sub
iect is advised as to his requirements
for Improvement and he is encouraged
to bring his line az high as possible
and to keep 1t straight.
The Republican journal. [volume] (Belfast, Me.) 1829-current, 1919-04-03

Boys and Students workers have
found unlimited and marvellous re-
sources in their groups; the initia-
tive, the ingenuity, the creative for
ces uncovered in boys have been
startling even to experienced lead
ers. Theodore Roosevelt once said
better probably than even he knew,
IF you are going to do anything with
the average man, you have to begin
before he is a man. The chance of
success lies with the boy"
The Maine program for boys
reaches the young fellows in country
districts, harnesses up the Gang"
instinct into channels of self-im
provement, gives an opportunity
which otherwise would be lost. 1t
means that hundreds of splendid
lads will go forth into every walk of
life fortified with clean, healthy
minds and bodies
Business Men Take Hand
Fifty Providence, r. l., business men
agreed to advise and direct $50 boys.
Meetings. conferences and personal in
terviews resulted. From q duty it inn
