American flag and the significance of

The Boy Scout movement is in no
sense a secret organization.
The plan is to group a number OF
boys (not more than 80 in any one
troop, as they are designated) under
the leadership of a scoutmaster-a
carefully selected, clean, intelligent
boy-loving volunteer leader-always
a man of sterling character and ma
ture judgment. Each troop and scout
master are under the supervision of
troop committee of responsible citi-
zens. usually officials of the church,
synagogue, school, settlement house,
asylum or playground with which the
troop is connected.
Through such leadership the boys
of the troops are kept interested in a
program of play activities that are
health-giving and educational. They
take long tramps, studying nature in
all it's forms. They learn woodcraft,
and how to take care of themselves in
the open. They have troop meetings
each week for study, handicraft, ex-
periments, demonstration, ETC., and go
into camp every summer under trained
directors.

beetles that injure fruit trees in a day
and, therefore, are to be encouraged,
says the American Forestry associa-

This bird is also known as the cave
swallow because it plasters its nest
on the outside Of a barn or other build
ing up under the caves. Colonies of
several thousand will build their nests
together on the side of cliff. These
nests, shaped like f1attened gourd or
water-bOttle, are made of bits of clay
rolled into pellets and lined with straw
or feathers. This bird winters in the

MOMENTOUS DAY IN HISTORY
Julius Caesar Said to Have Landed In
Britain on Twenty-seventh Day
of August.

According to calculations carefully
made and that, at the least, estab-
lish probable case, August q is the
anniversary Of the landing of Julius
Caesar in the island of Britain.
In his wars that resulted In the con-
quest of Gaul, or modern France, Jul
Illus Caesar kept journal, in which
he recorded all his operations. lie
called it, Commentaries" and it has
been pronounced to be perhaps the
best record of campaigns ever writ
ten by a general in the field.
In the midst of these operations he
found time to cross the channel and
pay military visit to the land known
now as England, but not so known
then, for the ancient Britons then in
hahited the island. He states the year
of that visit, which, according to our
calendar, was SIS B. G. He also states
other facts which enabled the calcu-
Iation as 10 month and day to be
made.
Caesar in his journal. or "Commen'
taries," relates that he set out on the
expedition when little of summer re-
manned, when the people of the south
of Britain are engaged in their har-
vest. and that after stay of three
weeks, he returned to Gaul before the
equinox. 1t is, therefore. concluded
that the day of landing must huve

Combine with this numerical in
crease the unmistakable evidence OF
higher standards in examinations,
largely owing to the circulation of the

is inspiration in this increase.
About 200 different experts have con-
tributed to the completion of the Merit
Badge library since the conclusion of
the Boy Scout week extension cam
paign in June.
