union meeting was to make plans for
the mock trial to be pulled off by the
three troops on September 26. That's
what Otto was going to pull off.
The three troops agreed to do their
share toward making the affair sue

plete success, for Otto never starts any
thing that he can't finish
A good many people would like to know
who Otto is II you really want to find
out, just pay a visit to a meeting of
Troop 49, and you will surely find out.
Another funny thing to me is that they
don't know who .Sleuty" is. He's a
fine scout, too.
Otto bought our boxing gloves, and.
oh, boy, | sure do feel sorry for the
undertaken. for Otto has been practicng
up.-By Everett Smith, Troop Reporter.
Note: Scout Smith came right back at
us for not knowing who Otto and
'Sleuty'' are We can readily see that
Otto is the scoutmaster, Otto Gilmore.
We ought to have known that. Now
that we know that ''Sleuty" is a mighty
fine scout, we would like to know his
full name Let us hear from 'Sleuty.'

you will find many interesting, things

pounding for all he was worth on the un-
protected head of Harold Cowart. Only
a grim smile came forth from the fallen
champ. He let Bill pound away until
he was GREATNESS, then the fight began
in earnest When Bill was tired out
Harold by mighty efforts pulled himself
upright on the log and began to pound
Sill for a change. Bill is short and stockv
and Harold is long and rather lank.
This difference in figures didn't seem to
affect the outcome of the battle in the
least, however.
After nearly five minutes of whang-
ing away at Bills head, Harold sudden
~ changed his direction of attack from
the head to the feet, and the ruse caught
Bill unawares. He was knocked off the
log, and down to the ground below. He
was rather crestfallen, but he acknowl-
edged the defeat a fair one.
Many other games were taken part In.
including blour-blowing contest, with
a two Bit piece as the prize. A flour
bomb battle was prepared for. and
few of the bombs were thrown, with
floury results.

another charge, and fined some more. It's
a great life if YOU aren't the culprit

Scout Saunders Visit Hospital

There are many interesting things
that happen at the hospitals during the
day and night, as the patients lie on
their beds, longing ror the day when
they can go home and be with their
folks again. l went 10 see some of the
folks at the Hillman hospital the other
day and during my stay l saw many
interesting things. There were two
boys who had been operated on so
they would be fit to pass the examiTa
ton that the U. S. navy requires you
to stand before you can enlist in the
service
They were looking Forward to the
day when they could leave the hospital
and go in the service of Uncle Sam.
They had gone to the navy recruiting
station and had trieu to enlist They
were examined and told that they
would have to stand an operation be-
fore they could be accepted. OF course
they wanted to get IN. so they agreed
to the operation, and now they are
about well. Uncle Sam Will be proud
of them when he gets tn enl I am sure.
There were many little fellows who
had had their tonsils taken out and
had very bad sore Jhroats, and could
hardly talk above a whisper. 1 feel
for those little fellows for l have
just had my tonsils amputated, and I
know just what it means.

been in the hospital for about four
weeks, fighting AGAINST death. Day

A TERRIFIC PACE

Troop 43 was organized during May,
1919. This is Pratt City troop and has
its scoutmaster, T. p. Williams, This
troop is young in age but old in eff
cheney.
Although so recently organized, Troop
4S is hitting fast pace. Six boys have
already passed their second class tests.
These tests were passed during the past
week, and the boys who stood them are:
Scouts Willie Worrell, Albert Nickel. Ar
mold Stephens, Joe Jackson, Farris Gull
pepper and Harry Elmore.
This troop has also done well in the
efficiency contest The troop is now fifth
from the top, and has scored 1852 points.
Troop 43 certainly had big week last
week. Besides having six scouts pass
their second class tests, $40 points were
scored for the efficiency contest If
Troop 43 has few more such good
weeks the other troops had better Look
out, for 4S will be leading in the eff

They are "Freckles,' and THE Girl of

and the most compete collection of

Scouts Have One Last Week
OfOuting At Ca71pn Adre1Us

At least 80 Boy Scouts in Birmingham
will go to school tomorrow with lit
tie less regret than the others. These
80 scouts are the lucky ones who at
tended the last glorious week of camp
ing at Camp Andrews. This final week
of outing came a climax to the most
successful camping season in the his
tory of the Birmingham scouts.
Monday morning sailor Eddens was
met by a gang of happy scouts. eager
to be on their way to camp. The bag
gage was sent ahead on the Ford truck
as previously planned, and then the hike
was begun. After leaving the end of the
Edgewater car line, straight course
over the mountains was taken, and
after the expiration of quite a bit of time
the back of Chestnut ridge hove in
sight. With cheer the boys broke into
the camp bounds, and were at home once
more at Camp Andrews.
This week has been one of fun to the
scouts Excepting the difference in
numbers of scouts present, this camp
has been practically the same as the
larger one held at the beginning of the
summer Gus, the amable and dark
hued cook was not present, so the scouts
had to do their own cooking. This
sounds easy, and it is--for the cooks; but
it is hard on the rest of the bunch,

the amateur chefs.

TROOP 18 PREPARES
CABIN FOR WINTER

| . Well, old Troop Is is on deck again.
| Because of the absence of the scout
master and business demands on Assis-
Rant Scoutmaster Cleveland, tho reg
ular schedule of meetings was omitted
| for a while. But now we are all back,
and hard at it again, and we are first
again in the important matter of getting
! our cabin ready for winter.
Last week a number of scouts hiked
out to Camp Andrews With Scoutmaster
| Bowman and cleaned out the rubbish,
| grass and leaves from around the cabin,
and boarded up underneath, as suggested
| by the executive council in order to
make itSsafe from possible forest fires.
! We are proud that we are first again,
but our pride is tempered by the thought
| that maybe the others do not feel they
have so much at stake. Better act
! busy boys. You have put in too many
hard ticks to permit your labors to all
go up in smoke.
| The mixers enjoyed the safety and pro-
lection of their new bunk house very
much, and when ready to retire were
mighty glad the floor was not of rough
boards, as is proposed for our neighbor
cabins By the way. we would like to
know how they got the idea that POS
cabin is larger than ISIS. Both are the
same width, but 1ss is two feet longer.
| We found the Bessemer boys in possess
sion of the camp when we arrived, and
a fine lol<ing and gentlemanly lot of
| boys and young men they are. They
were courteous toward Troop is in word
and deed. and we take this opportunity
to thank them Their barbecue was
cooked just right We know all about
\ it Their boxing bouts and other stunts
at camp were fine
| Just now our boys are exercising their
gray mater to get a name for their
cabin and are having about the same
| trouble to find one good enough that
fond parents do in naming their first
baby. But we hope TO christen our cabin
soon. BY C. p Bowman, Sooutmaster.

easiest part of the JOB, as you will
find out after you try this once.
Secure some old photo plates from
your photographer, and then wash the
solution off the pla les until they are
clear and clean. Then get some small
pieces of glass, about Ike inches They
are to be used in pressing the wings
out. Make a pressing board with a
U shape in it large enough for the
body of the butterfly.
Take the collection OF butterflies and
spread each one with its wings out.
so that all the colors can be seen, but
do not stretch them too far from the
natural flying shapes, as it will dis
figure the looks OF the butterfly. Then
place the glass on top of the wings.
but be careful not to break the tissue
holding the wings together. Use
needles in stretching the wings. as
they make only small hole in the
tissue
Let the butterfly stay in this shane
for day or two. then take off the
small pieces of glass. and place tie
butterfly between the two large pieces
of glass. large enough so you can
case the butterfly. Use small strips
