he Misses the hoy Scouts.

To the Editor of The Times Dispatch;
Slr-for the first time in tive years I have
-aSaim h cen able to be at Richmond for the
Scouts. and their Irresistible smiles. One OF
the delishtful memories OF the last fair was
for me the kind and thoughtful service rem.
dered me by the little khaki.cad YOUNGSTERS.
and so on my arrival at the fair yesterday i
looked for my old friends and guides, but to
no aNaii: Why is he no longer u feature OF
fair"
In the old days the Boy Scout was every
where, anxious 10 be of help Nothing was too
much trouble! Nothing could wipe sway that
smile. If II was lost child the Scouts had
bur to learn Of it before the alarm was given
ana the child located; if a dull headache, or a
hi nc, stomach was spoiiing your day. you had
but to ask at OF their omniprcScnt tents
and lad skilled in first aid would render CHI
cicnt and willing help: II you needed a guide
or Il messenger the first lad in khaki you met
was ready at your service.
But the beautiful feature Of the
nmsetsh service Of the Boy Scout was his dis
unpaid volunteer at the fair. who was not
irving to get something from the visitor. His
service was his daily good turn.
Bat Yesterday looked in vain for my little
friends. the Scouts, and that is why I write in
the hope that ! may find why the Boy Scout is
no longer feature of fair. A VISITOR
