SCOUTMASTERS.
BY DR.. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright. 1900

Wherever there is real demand
there is sure, by and by. to come a
real supply.
In the matter of boys there have
been two great demands. two great
failngs in our educational system.
They are. first. what to do with the
boys spare time. and. second. what
TO do with his superf1uous energy.
Very often all that was taught a boy
in school and at home was negatived
by the mischief he learned idling in
the streets
And very often boys were punished
and repressed and injured by penal
izing them for that very enthusiasm
of self-expression which should have
been properly directed.
To meet these two demands has
come the Boy Scout movement. 1t
takes care Of the boys spare time, it
gives vent to his excess vitality.
The greatest dynamic of any coun-
ment organizes this youth and puts
it into wholesome activity.
1t teaches the hoy what he wants
to learn. 1t parallels human nature
instead of trying to repress it,
Scouting has been success because
lit goes right into the. realm where
real boys live, and gives them the
things that real boys crave. 1t is
an outlet for their instincts Of mys-
terry, adventure. romance and honor
1t does not interfere in any way
with the boys duties at home or in
school. but it supplements these two
great forces with a necessary third.
The old training used to be home.
school and devilment. Now it is home,
school and scouting.
And in scouting the boy finds his
instinct for play properly trained to
do more for his manhood, perhaps.
than he could learn in any other way.
The great need now is for more
scoutmasterS to organize troops and
lead the thousands of boys who want
ers. Any man of twonty-one years
who can pass the requirements may
be a scoutmaster.
There are at present 1892 scout
Boy Scouts. but there are 10000
boys of scout age Twelve years and
over) in the country who have not
had the advantage Of scout training.
This is written in the hope that it
will catch the eye of some man who
up to him vista of a mighty inter-
esting opportunity.
II you can get hold of some twenty
to thirty boys and not only give them
a good time. but help to make them
good citizens, would it not be worth
while?
There is nothing that returns more
in spiritual investment than scout
lmastership.
Thousands need it now
Our young men volunteered to whip
Germany. Why cannot they volun-
teer to help, save and strengthen the
coming citizenship of the United
States?
One particular and appreciate rea-
son for being q TScoutmaster is that
you not only help along in very
practical and undeniable way. but
that you are renewing your youth.

The road problem Of the country IL

In methods Of travel which enable the
city man to reach farther and farther
into the country district. He does
this first from a business or economic
standpoint. and, second, from pleas
ure-seeking standpoint. In an exactly
similar manner, the farmer is getting
fully aroused to the Importance or
better and better roads. They enable

quicker he can do so, resulting In q
saving Of time. and the better choice
he has Of market conditions.

fewer than 1000 had been provided

difficulties attending the work In an
utterly disorganized community. The

Good roads give wider choice Of
time for marketing crops. If roads
were kept in condition to permit travel

have to rush their produce to market
