HOW SCOUTS USED SPARE TIME.

Gathered seeds for reforesting the
mountains was the good deed of Boy
Scout Troop No. 70 Of Los Angeles,
Cal.
Warrenton, Va, Troop 1 keeps it's
scout truck at the disposal of the town
for charitable and other community
work, and scout always drives.
The boy scouts of Boston Troop No.
Is, AllstOn, Mass. maintained the pub
lie drinking fountains, kept order in
the local branch library and gave a
party to people sixty years and over.
At the annual meeting of the Far
Western Travellers association in New
York city, President Tappon warmly
seconded the suggestion made by Fed
eral Trade Commissioner Houston
Thompson that the association provide
a fund to send boy scouts on a trip
through the national parks each year.
Toledo, O., scouts gave a weeks
service in the safety first campaign,
during which they directed traffic, dis
tributed posters and staged "acci-
DENTS" to bring home to the people of
Toledo the need of observing safety
regulations.

HOW SCOUT TROOPS ORGANIZE

A group of three men brought to-
promotion of scout work receive a
charter from the national organiza-
ton or local scout council. A scout
master is secured and then the troop
is formed.
The scouts are organized in patrols
and troops. Eight boys constitute a
patrol, one being chosen as the patrol
leader. Three or four patrols make
up a troop. The scoutmaster is the
adult leader of the troop. He may
have one or more assistant scoutmaS-
tiers and a senior patrol leader.
Any boy of any class or creed, over
twelve years of age, is eligible to be-
come a scout. The initial require
ments are that he take the scout oath
and honor the scout law, know the sig
nificance of the badge and pass tests
in the history Of the flag and in knot
tying. He is then a tenderfoot scout.
By meeting certain requirements he
is in line to become a second-class
scout and then first-class scout.
Scoutcraft includes instruction in
first aid, life saving, tracking, signal
ing, cycling, nature study, seamanship,
campcraft, woodcraft, chivalry, and
all the handicrafts. A boy so fitted is
well prepared for the work of life. 1t
is a prime purpose Of the boy scout
movement, abroad as well AS in the
United States, to teach boys that to
create is better than to destroy.

"a FOUR CHILDREN HAD

Mother Writes

'Last August my four children all
started with the whooping cough" says
Mrs. D. Vachon. of Somersworth, N.
H. ''The only thing gave them was
Father Johns Medicine and in four
weeks they were all better. Everybody
was surprised to see how quickly they
got rid of it. 1 am sending a picture of
my oldest boy. He is four years old
now and since I have been giving him
Father Johns Medicine he is getting
fat every day." (Signed) Mrs. D.
Vachon, 1 Kings Lane, SOmersworth,
N. II.
A cough OR cold. particularly in chill
dren, should never be neglected. That
Is why careful mothers keep bottle of
Father Joints Medicine in the house all
the time and begin giving it to their
children promptly whenever they have
a cold or cough. They have found also
that it is Of great value as a body
builder because it is all pure, whole
some nourishment and is guaranteed
free from alcohol or dangerous drugs.

SCOUTS BUREAU OF SERVICE.

The bureau of information service
Of the Jersey City council of the Boy
Scouts of America has been set up
in the Triangle building at Montgom-
cry street and Bergen avenue.
The scouts will conduct what is to
prove to one Of the biggest "good
turns ever done for the people of
Jersey City. A visitor to the city will
only have to apply to this Office and
he will be given directions which will
take him by the quickest route to
whatever point he may wish to go,
and in the event of stranger wanting
a pilot to lead the way for him, there
will be scouts on duty. 1t also will fur
nish boys who for nominal sum will
be able to do small tasks in a hurry.
In this manner some of the scouts will
be enabled to make enough money to
pay for their trip to camp next year.

convenient device, but is used in a
very short season, when cherries are
ripe. For the ordinary housewife who
must buy her cherries and who muse
be very economical a cherry pitter
could be called an extravaganza, but a
bread mixer, which is used twice or
oftener in a week, a wheeled tray
which is used daily in preparing and
clearing away the meal, saving steps
and strength-these are economical
labor saving devices.
A wire basket which is used for a
dish drainer and can be set into a
deep pan and the dishes scalded and
left to dry in it is very convenient.
This saves wiping the dishes.
Egg heaters that will work, wooden
stirring spoons that never get hot, and
do not scratch aluminium dishes, sharp
pairing knives, carving knives in good
condition, all are essential working
tools.
A spatula for use in Dreaming but
ter and scraping out mixing bowls, a
cleaver and mayonnaise mixer, egg
whisks, kitchen scales, measuring cups
and plenty Of measuring spoons, steel
wool to clean saucepans without
scratching them, small paint brush
with firm bristles to use for greasing
dishes, pair of old shears to use in
cutting raisins, a knife sharpener, a
pair of pliers and putty knife, with
a bunch of wooden skewers to use in
cleaning corners too small to reach
otherwise, are all handy. Some
housekeepers like the little rubber
plate scraper for cleaning plates ready
to be washed. A detachable han
die for hot plates is good; as
is a card index for recipes, menus
and household hints and a small step
ladder. These labor saving devices
are in the reach of a large majority
of housekeepers. When electricity can
be utilized in the home, house cleaning
is mere play.
