BOY SCOUTS TOUR
COUNTRY BY TRUCK

Travelling by day and camping by
night, like the pioneers who crossed
the western plains with their prairie
sehooners," nifty boy scouts left Ak.
ron, Ohio. Tuesday, June IS. on a mo-
tor hike through New York and the
New England States, in a fleet of
motor trucks DETECTED for that pur-
pose from the Akron-BoGton express
line OF the Goodyear ETire and Rub
Der Company.
The fifty lucky scouts were select
ed from the 1000 scouts Of the city
for their general proficiency in scout
craft. Each Is an honor scout-the
representative OF his particular troop.
The tour will take about eighteen
days and will carry the boys through
many Of the interesting shistorical
sections Of the east. The first stop
on the hike" is Niagara Falls. From
this point the route runs through
Syracuse and Utica to Albany. where
ii bears north, passing Lake George
and Lake Champlain to Plattsburg,
then through northern Vermont, the
White mountains Of New Hampshire
and the pine forests Of Maine to Port
land. The return leads through Bos-
ton, Providence. New Haven, West

OF course, in doing this he m

After studying the wild turkey for GO years,

about them In lingo that nobody can under
