FIRST FALL
SCOUT HIKE
And the Walk Is Only Pre-
liminary to What Will
Follow

A hike has at least one good thing
at the, end to look forward to. The
first fall hike of the Harrisburg
Scouts. however doesn't stop at this.
There are two attractions az the end
of it, and the hike is only the pre-
paratory step for the good time that
the boys who go on it will experience.
The time is $3.50 tomorrow morn
ing. The starting place need scarce
ly be mentioned. Scouts usually
start from Headquarters, there will
be no variation in that this time.
The hike will be to the woods back
of Cottage Hill Athletic Field at
Steeton, where dinner will be cooked
and an opportunity given to pass
outdoor tests. Bring along enough
to eat, for this brisk autumn air
causes a healthy appetite to rise TO
alarming proportions. After dinner
contests and games will be in order
for a short time, and in the after
noon Scouts will take advantage of
an invitation extended to Scout Com
missioner German for the Scouts to
attend the First Aid meet held under
the auspices of the Bethlehem Steel
Company. Since First Aid plays an
important part in the Scouting pro-
gram, every Scout who wishes to be
considered progressive should attend
this meet. First Aid is a subject
which calls for illustrations and
practical work before one can con-
slider himself trained in that line.
This is a splendid opportunity to
see put into practice not only what
a Scout himself may know, but also
innovations and little tricks of
trade" that a book on First Aid
would not contain.
Let's have everybody out then
bright and early tomorrow morn
ing. a hike in the cool autumn air,
dinner in the woods, and an after
noon of pleasure and experience
what more could a Scout desire after
a long and tedious week in school.
1t might be worthwhile to men,
ton too, that Scoutma sters and As
sistant Scoutmasters will be heartily
welcome TO attend If convenient for
them to do so.

If thin AND NERVOUS,

Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to
Put on Firm. Healthy Flesh and

and Nerve Force.

When one stops TO consider the host OF
thin people who are searching continually
for some method by which they may in

the filling out Of ugly hollows, the rounding
off of protrudlng angles with the attend
ant bloom OF hsalth and attractiveness, 1t
is no wonder that many and varied sug-
gestions along this line appear from time TO
time in public print.
While excessive thinness might be at
different individuals 1t is a well-known fact
that the lack OF sufficient PHOSPHORUS in
the human system is very largely reSpon-
sible for this condition. Experiments on
humans and animals by many scientists
have demonstrated beyond question of

~uthor and professor In his book, Chem
istry and Food Nutrition" published in 1918,
says: that the amount OF phos-
phorous required for the. normal nutrition
OF man IS seriously underestimated in many
Of on. standard text books"
1t seems TO be we'll established that this
deficiency In PHOSPHORUS may now be met
by the use OF an organic phosphate known
throughout English speaking countries as
OF this phosphate by the nerve tissue the
phosphoric content when absorbed in the
amount normally required by nature soon
produces a welcome change In our body and
mind. Nerve tension disappears, vigor and
strength replace weakness and lack of ener-

and the will and strength to be ~ and

CAUTION:-while Bitro- phosphate is I'M

not desire TO put on flesh should use extra
care In avoiding fat-producing foods.
