countless individual acts of service for
the Government-all' OF which helped
in winning the war.
The successful termination OF the
war has not ended the work of the
Boy Scouts for the Government. Their
services in the Victory Liberty Loan
equalled II not surpassed their record
in any OF the preceding loans. and
they have continued their activities
in the sale Of War Saving Stamps
and for the Red Cross and other war
work organizations. They have also
conducted demonstrations throughout
the United States calculated to i'm
press the people with the importance
Of further supporting the Government,
conserving the food supplies and
bringing about the restoration OF nor
NAL conditions as quickly as possible.
The Scouts have adopted as their
peace cry" the motto THE war is
over. but our work is not" and are not
missing any opportunity TO live up
to it.
But the Boy Scout organization is
not alone worthy OF support because Of
Its unparalleled services to the Gov

in conserving the moral. intellectual
and physical future of the coming gem

dred car loads, enough to make $780,
900 masks, which were turned over to
the War Department. These no doubt
helped save the lives Of thousands of
Our soldiers from the deadly German
gases.
The thorough training the Scouts
receive in woodcraft and in observa-
ton proved OF great value in ens bling
them TO locate standing black walnut
trees needed for the manufacture of
aeroplanes and rifle stocks. The War
Department had tried unsuccessfully
TO obtain a sufficient supply of this
wood and the situation was rapidly
becoming acute. The army was call
ing for aeroplanes and rifles, but the
wood which was Indispensable in their
manufacture was lacking. In this
emergency the War Department ap-
pealed to the BoySScouts. They re-
spondcd instantly. The total-amount
located by the Scouts was 20.75S. $50
board feet. equal to 5000 carloads,
which was far in excess of the re-
quirements.
The war service record OF the Boy
Scouts did not end here. They also
rendered invaluable assistance in the
various campaigns conducted by Red
Cross, United War Work. Young
Mems Christian Association and other
national organizations serving the
Government. They took an active
part in increasing the food resources
of the nation by conducting 1900 war
gardens and war farms throughout the
country, and gave material aid to the
Government in its fuel and food con-
servation campaign. They were en-

not only more than justified their
existence but proved their organiza-
ton TO be one OF the most important
assets of the country in its hour Of
need.
Their war record alone entities them
to the whole hearted support OF every
patriotic man and woman in America
in their coming campaign to increase
their associate membership by at least
100000 and to raise a fund of 81, 00O,-
