BUFFALO, JONES ON SCOUTING

Just before Buffalo Jones passed
over the Great Divide. where all the
pony tracks point one way, he called
his daughter to his side and said:
"Tell Dan Beard that used to hoot
at the Boy Scout movement, but had
to be sick in bed two years and see
my grandson training to be worthy of
membership in the scouts to realize
what Boy Scout means, and tell him
/ hope every boy in the world will
come to know what it means."
This deathbed comment of the
mighty hunter has just come in
letter from the family to the national
scout commissioner at his home in
Flushing, L. 1.
Colonel Jones is the one whom Zane
Grey named "the last of the plains
men," He is the man who alone and
unaided lassoed and hog-tied a lot Of
buffalo, and who later went to Africa
and lassoed every wild beast of that
country that he met, including full
grown lion.
Buffalo Jones belonged to the
Buckskin men," writes Dan Beard.
"the race which is now extinct, the
race which included in its ranks such
men as George Washington, Abraham
Lincoln, George Rogers Clark. Simon
Kenton, Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett,
Kit Carson, Texas Jack, Jim Bridger,
Audubon, Catlin, Custer, Joe Meeks-
men who would dare and do almost
anything, men of virility, aggressive
and full of initiative. These are the
men who made it possible for the rest
of us to live in this land.

LuMsERMEN SCOUT DADDlEs.

The president of the Lumbermen's
credit bureau of Miami, Fla, came in
to the scout headquarters recently and

get seated he asserted that the lumber

troop of boy scouts.
How did they do it? Easy. First,
they had desire to do a good turn by
some of the boyhood of their city.
Second, they decided they could do it
best through scouting. Third, they
started out in the lumberman's way to
get things done, and in three weeks
they have scoutmaster with nine
boys to start a troop.

Rods on HUNGER Strike.

New York-More than three score
radicals awaiting deportation hearings
at Ellis Island, now being investigated
by the House immigration committee,
instituted two strikes within two hours.
After having issued an ultimatum to
the effect that they would not attend
their hearings unless the wire screen
which separated them from visitors
was removed, they declined an invita-
tion to march into the dining hall for
breakfast. The menu which the hun
ger strikers turned down consisted of
prunes, oatmeal, bread with substi-
tute for butter and coffee.

farm, along the old Spring Branch
road?
All! yes, my friend, perchance it
will delight us to have remembered
these things which happened in the
fifties, in the dear old days, the days
that are no more. So to me today, as
for a brief hour or two, sit in my
own little home in the far west look
ing out over the various forms of veg
citation and gardens offering the ma

come memories of early struggles, and

pleasure the cares, worries, ambi-
tons, hopes and enterprises of the
dear old by gone days, although it was
a veritable struggle for existence and
If poverty reigned over larder and

. Julia, cannot fittingly describe the
beauties of my little home here in
the Addy suburbs. Although the poet
has said "Tis home where the heart
is" and my heart is surely in old
Iowa, which has been my home since

My little home here consists of
two-roomed cottage which, by the
way, they have been painting and
fixing up generally. It is situated
right near the banks of the Colville
river, just few steps below Merl's
home. End the fine new Commercial
creamery, and is close to the Great
