votes east and the result showed
249 for the bond issue and two
against it. We have no means of

these same highways will become
a great asset To the country and

SEA SCOUTS GROWING FAST.

The sea scout branch of the Boy
Scouts of America are following
modified plan for scouting along sea-
manship lines. This program has been
approved by eminent captains, ad-
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 100,-
900 sea scouts.
The sea scout branch provides work
of 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.
