This year set up the tenth mile
stone Of the boy scout organizations
1t was incorporated February s, 1910.
and a federal charter was given six
years later. This important ami
versary is taken as the occasion of
making a drive for increased mem
bership in the adult auxiliary forces
to back up the extension of the So
ciety into new fields so that a much
larger portion of the boyhood of
America may be served. This is the
program Of extensive development
and the effort will be made to serve
better every registered scout. At the
last report the actual scouts num-
bered little over $4,000. The adults
and officials such as committeeman
scoutmasters, council members. an;
assistant scoutmasters, number abouI

Fifteen Years Has Seen Marvellous
Growth
Continued from Yesterday

Fifteen Years Has Seen Marvellous
Growth
The new club started out by hold-
ing a luncheon once each week ana
an evening meeting every month. IN
a short time there were nearly hail
hundred members and considerable
number of others who had become
interested and had asked to become
members. Men in other cities had
heard Of this new club called "Ro-
tary" and had written to the Chicago
club asking If they couldn't organize
in their cities. 1t was decided though
that it would be best tot wait until
time had proven the experiment sue
cessfui before giving encouragement
to the organization of clubs in other
cities. he Chicago club continued 70
increase in membership In 1907
three wears after the first meeting
the second Rotary club was organized
in San Francisco. Other clubs fol-
lowed on the Pacific Coast and then
the movement spread to the east and
then to the south until sixteen clubs
had been organized by the end or
1910. These clubs were all the re-
suit of seed more or less accidentally
sown by members who were enthused
by the Rotary idea-and who gave OF
their time and money without thought
of personal gain.
1t was in 1910 that the first con
vention was held and the National
Association formed. This first con-
vention was held in Chicago, and
general officers elected, and a con-
stitution adopted Paul P. Harris
was honored by election to the frs,
presidency of the newly created as
sociation and Chesley R. Perry VIII
was secretary of the Chicago club
and who, with Paul Harris was re-
sponsible to large extent for calling
together this first delegate body Of
Rotary, was elected secretary This
office he has always held and con
tinues to hold at the present time
Paul Harris has since been hon0ret
by the comforting upon him of tn
title of President Emeritus.
The second convention was hell
at Portland, Ore, in 1911, and tn
third. convention at Duluth, Mimi.
in 1912. Previous to the Duluth con
vention a club had been organized a
Winnipeg, Canada, and at the con
vention club had been organized a
Winnipeg, Canada, and at the. cor
e venvention cable was receive
from the Rotary Club Of LondoI
England, asking for charter. 7
make provision for these clubs, tn
convention took action, changing tn
organization from a National to a
international Association" BY thi
time there were forty clubs in exis
ence.
The rapid growth in number {
clubs continued From every moo
and corner of the United States an
Canada came requests from bushes
men who had heard of this new lea
en- for the community welfare al
who wanted to establish clubs
their cities. BY 1916, the number
clubs had increased to more thf
$50, with approximately $4,000 men
bers. Two or three more clubs h;
been organized in England and Sc
eral more in Canada. Business mi
in Cuba and in South America h;
also become inoculated with the R
tary idea and were seeking to orga
ize clubs.
During the four years from 10
to the present time nearly FOUR hui

MAKES NEW USE OF ECHOES
Inventors Idea May Do Away With
the Old Practice Known as
"Heaving the Lead"

An inventor in Oakland. CAL. has
found new and practical use for
echoes. and as result the time may
come when the practice of "heaving
the lead" at sea will be known only
IN historical novels and old maritime
history. The marimeter. as the new
device is called sends sound from
the keel of the ship to the bottom of
the sea; the sound comes back as an
echo, and the journey, automatically
recorded on diaphragm, is translated
into terms of length. The report shows
the depth of water between keel and
bottom. calculated from the known
speed of the sound-wave in salt water.
and the knowledge may be acquired at
the rate of four soundings a minute,
which is very much faster than by the
older methods. The marimeter, to be
sure, has only recently gone to sea,
If indeed the steamer Governor, which
will carry the first Of them, has yet
left dry dock in Seattle. Wash. But
the instrument promises to add ma
terially to the security of ocean traf-
nc.

DOING THINGS BY WHOLESALE
Easy to See Many Advantages in New
Methods Rapidly Being Brought
to Perfection.

Heretofore we have bought medical
service at retail. Now Glasgow is try
ing out plan to sell medical service
wholesale.
What Glasgow is striving to do is
this: Divide the city in districts and
provide free dispensaries and free doc
tors to all who need medical attention.
1t is claimed that such a scheme will
reduce the death rate, because many
poor people now skimp their families
in the matter of health precautions.
And the doctors like it, also+ They
work fewer hours and a standard pay
As guaranteed.
Withal, the Glasgow plan of whole
sale doctoring is said to be cheaper
than our old-fashioned retail method.
"Girard' writes IN the Philadelphia
Press.
American cities have made half a
step toward such doctoring of the peo-
pile in wholesale lots.
We have boards of health and health
bureaus. They administer in IL gen
seral way and they administer in whole
sale doses.
An order goes out and it goes for
all the people. 1t is economical and
wise, as every one knows, during such
an epidemic as the '.6n'' was last
year.
Doctoring by wholesale saved mill
lions of lives in that one calamity.
Uncle Sam did the insuring of his
own soldiers by wholesale in the last
war.
Public schools supply education in
wholesale quantities..
Our spiritual wants are supplied ii
fashion wholesale through the
churches.
SO wholesale doctoring is only an
other days march in the general di-
rection of socialistic empire.

Science and Soap Bubbles.

Sir james Dewar. the English pro.
lessor of chemistry. who has made
soap bubbles which he kept intact for
more than year, says that when a
soap bubble becomes very old, say in
three or four days, it offets the only
possible example of the molecule Wis
ible to the naked eve. In the soap
bubble ordinarily there are about 100
layers of molecules, but scientific treat.
ment has produced black spots in
which there is only single layer, so
thin that Sir James estimates that it
would take one and one-third mil
lion like it superimposed to make an
5nch.

carry 1t across the cork and down on

Is no danger Of leaking.
