Origin Of the Boy Scouts
Canyon tell me anything about
the origin Of the Boy Scout move
ment? A Social Service Worker.
The boy scout movement was
founded by Lieut.. Gen. Sir Robert
Baden Powell in England in 1908
and has since spread practically all
over the world. Sir Robert Baden
Powell is now in America to further
a plan for solidfying the movement
into an international organization.
He himself, is one of England's
greatest military men. Joining the
Hussars in 1876, he saw service in
India, Afghanistan and South At
RIGA, and in 1890 became assistant
military secretary at Malta. He
was in command of the special ma
tive levies during the Ashanti cam
paign of 1895, and held the position
of chief staff officer in the Matabele
the next year. The most
famous incident in his military
career, however, was his heroic de-
