TROOP SIXTEEN
ENTERTAINS FOUR
Splendid Cooperation of All
Concerned Makes Event
Big Success

Last Friday it was Troop 16's
privilege to act as host for the rally
of Group 4. The success of the affair
was due to the splendid spirit of
cooperation all along the line. The
Scout Commissioner, deputy commits
sioners, executive, troop committee
men, scoutmasters and assistants put
| their shoulders to the wheel AMI
things just had to move.
Mr. Mehring, Scoutmaster of D,
started things going when he led
the las men and boys present in
some yells. Our Scoutmaster con-
Quoted the devotional exercises. Mr..
German spoke to us in his usual
capable manner. DR.. HaZen came
next and expressed his appreciation
of the loyalty of the troops in his
district. Chief Virgin came to the
bat next and spoke of everything.
Then the scoutmasters present We're
called upon, and each one responded.
Mr.. Dillinger, one of our troop COM
mitteemen, spoke on Safety First. !"
Next the rollcall, and then Mr..
Virgin presided at the investiture
ceremonies Albert Miller, of Troop
16, was elevated to tenderfoot rank;
I Carl Schultz, Lester Mehring and
William Snyder, all of Troop 16, were
made second-class Scouts, and Merit
Scout Wilbur Criswell, of Troop 16,
was commissioned as an assistant
scoutmaster of our troop. Bills eX-
ample is certainly worth following.
He came into our troop as a candi-
date, and last Friday saw first
class Scout with II merit badges.
SO you see it can be done. The
moral is-get busy.
At the conclusion of this cere-
mony the rally was turned over to
Scoutmasters Manser, of Troop IL,
and Miller, of Troop 10, whose pro-
gram of games went right to the
spot.
Eats! You bet we had eats.
Pretzels, apples, ginger bread, pea
nuts and cider.
then the committee got busy clean
ing up the room. 1 believe one or
two of Shem who live near the
church got home before morning,
but l know some of them didn't.
Can you imagine peanut shells on
cocoa mating? Well, that was part
of their job. The room was as clean
as pin when they left, though. The
committee deserves a lot of credit
for their hard work before, during
and after the affair.
one OF our Scouts had an argu-
ment with an automobile and came
off with a sprained leg He wanted
to come to the rally, but couldn't
walk. ]. n. Kinnard, one of our
troop committee members, heard of
this, and came for me Il mean

the meeting. His kindness is greatly
appreciated.

TROOP

Twenty-four members of Troop 2
enjoyed the rally of Group in
SiXteen's meeting place last Friday.
We came early and stayed late and
had great old time. Bobbing for
apples was the best fun. Some of
our fellows were lucky enough to
get three and four apiece. The only
sure way to get them was to take
the apple right down to the bottom
of the tub and then bite on it. OF
course this meant wet hair, but
what of that? Some crowd there,
too. Junior Bakers father and
mother dropped in for a minute to
see how things were coming on.

United action on q definite pro-

tion and elections and general recon-
struction legislation were discussed
by representatives of the State Fed
Grafton Of Labor's executive council,
the State Grange and newly elected
One of the first things they de-
cided to do was to ask the legislature
to memorialize the Federal govern
ment to pay each discharged soldier
$500 when he is released. The con-
ference considered the three months
pay advanced insufficient for the man
going back into civil life. ~
The conference also asked that
discharged soldiers be returned to
their local draft boards, and that the
latter be instructed to assist in find
ing employment.
The state election code and regis
tration provisions were discussed at
length and the prevailing opinion
was that not only cities but rural
districts were losing thousands Of
votes by the present regulations.
A plan to make every franchised
person, man or woman, carry regis
tration card Of citizenship, which
would entitle voting at any place
with some reasonable provision a. to
residence, gained favor. It was in-
sisted that 1t would be ~ proper and
