THEY WERE BOY SCOUTS

Vincent Fireno, peddler of fruits in Utica. N |, had an unpleasant ex- perience. He was propelling push cart laden with oranges, bananas and potted plants. when an automobile came along, driven by lady.
 She intended to stop at the curb. and had almost succeeded when the auto started over again and kept on going. Ii finally stopped. but not until it had struck the cart and demolished part of if. and sent fruit and flowers hNug
 No one was hurt. and not much in- jury was done. but while the crowd stopped and eazed couple of boy scouts gut busy and picked up tAe ven der's fruit and plants and put tbrm in n box which he brought
 Times haze certainly changed. In the good old days the hoys would have regarded the accident as provi5cntial. and gathered the fruit and departed push-cart and ali. before the vendor could protest.

SCOUTS NEED THE SOLDIERS.

Military life and scouting have much Tn common. except the manual af arms and the carrying of guns, which play no part in the scout program
 Their common ground Is In tho devel- opment of discipline, the making of healthy bodies through outdoor aetivi- ties and the creation of loyalty and good citizenship.
 Thousands of civilians, men of good character. who entered the army and navy during the war, have acquired through their experience in the Serv- ice qualities of leadership that may have been dormant during civilian life.
 Many of them are of inst the sort to Inspire boys. the kind that will make good scoutmaster~. of whom there is a dearth, because they have learned to obey and to command. and because they have acquired knowledge of hygiene and at least the rudiments of wooderaft.
 This fact was recognized by the leaders of the boy scout movemen. from the beginning of the formation of our great army.
