Some scouts drive quite few miles
to attend troop meetings.
Scoutmastcr III. II. Kurtx Of Troop
No. OF Locustdale. Pa. says:
"Only three l.acustdale scouts live
within Il mile of their headquarters.
Many Of them live from seven to nine
miles away. and they come on wheels
or on horseback or in automobiles or
they walk.
AT every meeting there are scouts
who, having come by train, must. ow-
ing to poor service walk back nine
miles, and sometimes these boys walk
both ways.

COAST GUARD PART or NAVY.

The navy wants the coast guard
to be Incorporated with itself and
the coast guard personnel are in
favor Of being thus Incorporated. A
vote taken last March at a meeting
OF the commissioned and warrant
officers OF the coast guard showed
fifty-nlnc in favor Of amalgamation
with the navy and two against. A
vote of the entire service gave 800 in
favor and four against amalgama-
ton. The navy needs the experienced
and well-traned officers and men OF
the coast guard service to assist in
carrying on the heavy duties which
have been thrown on the navy by
new conditions. Performance of the
important coast guard duties affords
a school of training in coastal navi-
cation and steamship practice that
can be had in no other way.--Scier-
tific American.
