SCOUTS SAVE DROWNING BOY.

Ernest II. Collins, IT., of Denver, {
years old, escaped drowning In CITY
Park lake due TO the presence of nina
of two Denver boy scouts who effected
his rescue after two gardeners at the
park had failed to drag the boy from
the cold water.
The quick work which the TWO
scouts, Robert Pleus, 10, and Leroy
Hoyt, II, displayed in the rescue is a
single example of the value of the boy
scout training.
The Collins boy had been skating
and went upon too thin Ice. Pleus n
Hoyt happened to be passing IN a
motor car. Seeing the Collins boys
p~redicament, the scouts rushed to his
aid. They cut their shoe strings ana
making a rope of their coats, they
made a life line for the boy. He tooK
