|LOSS OF WHITE MULE"
'BR|NGS GRIEF TO MANY

A most deprolable accident occurred
on Main street, Friday night, mad
those who witnessed sympathized for
the unfortunate party who was the
victim of cruel circumstances.
Just at dusk, as a couple Of men
were walking west on Main street,
near the hardware establishment of
Bivens-Corhn and Frensley, nearby
pedestrians heard the crash of glass.
Immediately following the crash the
two men IN question made a swift
getaway and curiosity impelled all
standing near to investigate.
Arriving at the scene Of shattered
glassware it IA found that a huge
posing in the hip pocket of one of
the men and containing what is tech
nically termed white Mule" had
crashed to earth and shattered into
fragments. The aroma Of alcohol per-
meated the atmosphere and assembled
heavenward while strong men wept,
and made In effort to locate the two
unlucky individuals to offer consola-
ton. but without avail.
That's a lesson to me-" remarked
one individual, II will never carry
anything as precious on the hip in the
future, it will be inside the bosom
Of my shirt for mine from now on"
he concluded, and knowing mods pass
ed around among many OF those who
stood viewing the remains.

The important part played by the

In the 'Jamboree" Of the scouts OF
the word in London this week is
typically American. The delegation
from each of the "a countries taking
part in the contests was invited to
bring along something. or do some
thing, which would in a measure
typify the nation from which it came.
and our Boy Scouts did both with a
vengeance. They took manufactured
articles and natural objects peculiar
TO their localities, including as many
live animals. such as snakes, alligat-
ors and owls, as could easily be trans
ported with their other paraphernalia-
But above all the American delegation
made London sit up and take notice,

Scouting of the real kind. which is
being kept alive today in the Boy

all over the world, had its beginning

dances. One of these was the pony
dance, in which eight horses had a
part. 1t ended with a thrilling war

at Olympia, where the contests were
held. Cowboy trick riding was shown
by some of the American Scouts.
Two teams were entered in the OBJ
stacle race, obstacle trekcart race and
bicycle marathon ride. In the exhibit
competitions some scouts were eel
making furniture. Six competed in
bugiing contests. The Denver Boy
Scout Band which was trained by
lines, the noted ~bandmaster, was
scheduled to try for championship Of
the world, but reports have not been
received regarding the results.
America had the honor of the lead
ing part in the grand finale of the
eight-day "Jamboree." William Chaun-
cy Langdon, we'll known throughout
America for his pageantry, wrote a
pageant for this occasion and was in
London to direct ii himself. 1t depict

leading actor. The closing scene was

Of all the "Jamboree" delegations, Led
by q choir of 500. Sir Robert present
ed the boy scout law to the scouts
Of the world, and thus the "Jamboree"
ended.
The American delegation, which is
by far the largest from any country,
was spurred to best efforts by the
presence of the highest officials in
the movement who went to London to
cheer the boys to victory. These in
clude Colin H. Livingstone, of Wash
ington, president Of the Boy Scouts
OF America; Mortimer L. Schiff, vice
president, who Is chairman of the
delegation; James z. West, chief scout
executive; John II. Phillips, of Pitts
burg, and Bolton Smith. of Memphis,
members of the executive board.
The Latest cablegram from Chief
Scout Executive West reports that
the American delegation last Sunday
morning attended one of the most in
spring religious services imaginable,
with 10, 900 boys and 5000 adults, and
in the afternoon visited Westminster
Abbey, ending the day with a parade
Of nations, which was ms Of the most
unique sights in the worlds history

In the scenic display competitions
which lasted throughout the week the
American boys showed in a highly

made to scouting. They set up a

with their trek cart. They unloaded
the cart and set up n camp for eight,

Rover Scouts, who carry their out

carts, showed how to hike that way.
They showed how TO get fun out Of
the packs, using them as medicine
balls and playing various games with
them.
One hundred scouts made fire by
friction, using the old Indian bow
drill method in vogue long before
matches were invented. Probably this
is the largest number of white per-
sons ever assembled who could per
form this difficult stunt. In the midst
o ftheir act there was alarm. A for

situation by methods that are taught
