Scouts Plan Trip
to Lambs Gap

Friday, October 10, Troop IA had
meeting at it's regular hangout,
and we had visitor, Troop 10, with
it's Scoutmaster, and also Assistant
Scout Commissioner, Mr.. German.
We opened up by talk from Mr..
German, and, as usual, it was a
dandy. Among other things, he said
that every Scout should carry his
registration card, as a boy under Is
must be off the street by 9 p. m.
unless with an older person, but if
a Scout shows his registration card
and proves he has just been to Scout
meeting, he may go home unmo-
Tested. And, fellows, you will find
it good policy to do this, as last
Scout meeting had to act as chap
eron to one fearful Scout because he
was under Is and did not have his
card with him. After this Scout
master Miller gave us a talk upon
field telegraphy, and let us ask him
questions upon electricity in general.
and he sure knows this subject and
can talk upon 1t. We then had a
few minutes to talk with each other
and to plan on a proposed trip to
Lambs Gap. The meeting was then
closed, as many of the Scouts did
not have their registration cards,
and, being under Is years old, made
it necessary for the Scoutmaster to
close the meeting much earlier than
they wished to, so next time all bring
your credentials.

Scoutmasters to Hike
to Happy Hollow

The Scoutmasters of the city,. to-
gether with the Assistant Scoutmas-
ters, expect to go on hike to
Happy Hollow on Saturday after
noon. The party will leave Scout
headquarters at 4:30.
Prof. H. A. Surface, who has won
fame for his work on trees and ami
mails, will be in charge of the nature
study division. In company with
Scout Executive Virgin, he went
over the proposed route of the hike
through Cameron Park extension,
and found at least thirty varieties
of common trees and shrubs. The
objective of the hike is little grove
of trees about a quarter of a mile
south of the eastern gate to the
park. There supper will be cooked,
and under the direction of Scout
Executive Virgin, the men will be
initiated into the mysteries of the
various types of fire-building that
are in use among woodsmen, trap
pers and Scouts.

BASKETBALL TO
HOLD THE SCOUT
Troop Is Arranges to Have
Team During Coming
Winter Months

When the cold wintry nights come
the members of Scout Troops seek
indoor activities. There are many.
such as checkers. games, club meet
ings, basketball-but here Troop 13
will stop and add to the Scout page
some of her future plans.
Last Scout meeting the Scouts
elected William Fenstermacher as
manager of the first basketball team,
willie Harry Huber will assume the
duties as manager of the second
team. Manager Fenstermacher CALL
ed a meeting, and captains for the
two teams were chosen. Joseph Ha-
gar was chosen to lead the first
team, and Bruce Grunden will have
charge of the second team.
Last season Troop 13 enjoyed a
successful and pleasant basketball
career. The troops first team lost
only one game during the year, We
did experience some hard games,
among which were those with Troop
1 of Middletown and Troop 10 OF
Harrisburg. During last years sea-
son Troop Is scored 400 points, play
ing six games on her home floor and
six away from home. The Academy
varsity forfeited their game with US.
This year the troop will feel the
loss of Charles Carl and Jason Sny-
; der, who were both fast players,
and who together scored 113 points
of the total number. However, the
troop is not out for games only, but
for the sake of the sport in fair
games.

to shine for that team are: Donald

Those out this year for the nrst

to make basketball one of the leading
winter activities in Harrisburg thls

Doom, Holland, Oct. II. - '"The
House of Doorn," as the estate recently
purchased here by the former German
Emperor has been called for centuries,
lies right in the midst of this clean,
slow moving little Dutch village, whose
5000 or so inhabitants, while not at all
excited about it, are looking forward
with considerable interest to numbering
among their burghers one William Ho-
benzollern, formerly of Potsdam.

sons in this section of the country, be-

the estate he has purchased or in the
surrounding community to suggest a
place of exile.

Doom, like Amerongen. is one of the
few villages in. Holland located on
ground that seems to be above the sea
level. Instead of canals and dykes and

Amsterdam and Rotterdam to Arnem,
which passes the Hohenzollenr estate.
From this road, through long avenue
OF stately trees, is visible one side of
The House of Doorn." There Is also
almost constant procession of bicycl-
ing tourists, and the two main hotels,
with their white painted little veranda

houses, do a rushing business all

PRESS AGENTS CRUELTY

The late Tody Hamilton, famous
as a circus agent, once planned a
special performance at the winter
headquarters of his show. He ar
ranged to feed beer to the animals
in their cages and notified the New

Among the reporters was bibul-

night before his assignment he had
been engaged in a severe bout with
John Barleycorn and the next day

AS the keepers, under Hamilton's
direction, poured gallons of beer in
to the receptacles for the animals
