SCOUTS EMB0DY BEST IDEALS

During my four years In Germany"
says james w. Gerard. former Ameri-
can ambassador. II saw much of the
child life Of that country. The chill
dren were paraded through the streets
singing their songs of hate. In the
schools they were taught deliberate
perversion of history. For instance: !:
The Fatherland did not wish to injure
the Belgians, but the wicked Belgians
promised to allow our troops to pass
through their country and then at
tackled them"
How different are the methods that
are used to bring out the best in the
childhood Of this. our own country |
While the Germans had organizations
which were intended to develop hatred
and like passions in the hearts Of the
young, we have the Bo, Scouts Of
America. This splendid organization
well illustrates the difference In ideals
between the two countries. In the
Boy Scouts the boy subscribes to an
oath to be true to himself and his
country and to keep himself morally
and physically fit at all times. He also
pledges himself to "do good turn
daily"
The boy is taught woodcraft and
many other useful things. He partici-
pates in big public functions and civic
ceremonials. From the very first he Is
led into the higher citizenship.

with a skillet, while the children
hoped around and bet grains of pop

As pelts are becoming more and

are considered ordinary and plentiful,
continue to advance In price, the own

thing about the future prices of furs,
but people who are well Informed
say there is no chance of their falling
Cor some time to come: the chances
are that they will continue to go up.
IN view of this, short fur coats have
advantages over all others because
they cost less. are very smart and
present "a chance to remodel partly
worn long coats into something that
IS stylish and new.
Some furs are difficult to make up
or to remodel because the skins must

quite successfully. The furrier's tools
are few and simple. They include a
