In ability William Henry Harrison
fell below the standard OF his prede-

he was great statesman or a great
soldier but because he was thoroughly
representative of the new West. which
was flattered to see in the White House
for the first time a man created in its
own image.

presidency entered an eclipse and
was held for 20 years by secondary

SCOUTS AND NATURE STUDY.

The most surprised objects in the
world are the things that scouts have
collected during the summer. They
supposed themselves TO be ordinary
bits Of stone, plain everyday lichens,
care-free insects, worthless shells,
freaks of the forest, permanent parts
of glistenlng boulder, and so on.
But they have found themselves lifted
into general notice by BOYS who per-
ceived that they We're not the COM
monplace things they took themselves
to be, but real wonders of nature.
Some Of these specimens, in fact
most of them, are of permanent inter-
est and value. The collecting of such
things Is good exercise in observation,
and is educational.
Where the camp facilities could af-
ford 1t the past summer, small nat
ural history museum was built up out
OF these objects in many scout camps.
Where that was not possible they
were carried back to town and, such
as the individual scout was willing to
part with, were added to many town
or school museums. or made the
nucleus of such museum.
This idea of small natural history
or exhibits composed of col
lections gathered by scouts and by
ntharsy ri nf thnip gtf,,,n
gram Is being developed by B. T. b.
Hyde of the American Museum Of Nat
ural History in New York. Mr.. Hyde
spent the summer with the boys in
the largest boys camp in the world,
the boy scout camp in Palisades inter-
state park, where the thousands Of
scouts from greater New York and
vicinity camp. With the aid of scouts
he established museum of thousands
Of local natural objects, from rare
.oadstools to rattlesnakes.
Most communities will be amazed
It the variety Of minerals In adjacent
errltory, and at the variety Of Curl
,us and valuable and wonderful OBJ
ects that can be found by observing
earchers.
Arrangements can readily be made
With the school authorities or with the
library authorities or, If there Is
Ocal museum, the museum authori-
les, for space to display well-selected
pecimens properly labeled.

CAMP LIFE is PROFITABLE.

The life of Boy Scout is profitable
because of its varied activities. A boy
learns to build his own bed out Of
fallen timber, to make his own mat
tress out Of fir or balsam tips or by
weaving II out of grass; to cook his
own meals; to make his own fishing
equipment; to catch his own fish; to
build his own fire; to keep his camp
clean, and In sfrsrt to rely upon him
self and to take care Of himself ut ell
times.

SCOUTS MUST BE cHivALRous.

Obviously boy scout must be chiv-
alrous. That is he should be as manly
as the knights and pioneers Of old. He
should be unselfsh. He should show
courage. He must do his duty He
should show benevolence and thrift. He
should be loyal to his country. He
should be obedlent to his parents and
show respect TO those who are his SUI
periors. He should be very courteous
to women. One of his obligations is
to do good turn every day to some
one.

JACK DEMPSEY is ACQUITTED
Federal Court Disposes of Much Dis
cussed Case of Worlds Champion
Prize Fighter.

After a trial lasting more than a
week, a jury in the federal court Of
San Francisco found Jack Dempsey not
guilty of violating the selective serv-
ice act. The jury was out only ten
minutes and returned its verdict on
the first ballot.
The indictment charged Dempsey
with knowingly and wilfully classifying
his QUESTIONABLE in ORDER to get de-
ferred classification In Glass IA. In
this document, which he signed in Chi
cago in January, 1918, he swore that
his wife, mother, father, widowed sis
ter and the two minor children of the
last named were mainly dependent up
on him for support, and had been living
with him for a considerable time.
These statements the government as
serted were untrue.
The evidence showed that Dempsey
received his questionable in Chicago
and had it filled out almost immedi-
ately. His manager, Jack Kearns, an
swered most of the questions, and
Dempsey gave his assent as the an.
