but ais yet it is not thot advis-
able to issue a data report. On
the face Of the meagre reports
on file it is clear that the total
amount raised in this drive will
fall materially short of last
years : contributions in the.
county. Chairman Of the city
Committee, Hildar Hoaglund,
has taken a conservative cal
culation of the partial returns
and stated that over a thous-
and dollars has been solicited.
The first ward returns are
not available. {: !:
In the rural districts and the
villages the drive was initiated
several days later than the time
set. Extended time has been.
granted to commit tees in such
precincts. Some townships
have submitted reports which.
show an increase over their
ntributions Of last year but
the sum Of these few increases
cannot offset the deficit which

linquency is merely energy gone wrong.
 The Boy Scouts of America today has a membership of 500,000. There are 5000, ,000 boys in the United States of scout age eligible for membership. The matter of increased membership is not a question of boys, but of men. We need the men to put this program across. The cost is little enough about $s000 a year for the state of Arizona. The cost per boy, based on the number of boys in Arizona eligi- bic for scout membership, is less than S1 per boy.
 Juvenile records of the state show between $50 and 400 delinquent boys each year. The cost of their care is between twenty and forty thousand dollars a year.
 Present the boys of Arizona with a Christmas present and give them the scout program" he pleaded in conclusion.
 criticizes Women's Dress l "There is not one member of any Boy Scout organization at the Fort | Grant industrial school" Samuel J. H. Larson declared, in support of State | rnents made by Miller. 'sThe average cost to the state for | each inmate of the institution. during | the period of their confinement, is ap- proximately $650," he continued. ''The average period spent at the school by each delinquent boy or girl is from one 10 two years. The longest period spent there by any of the present pu- | pills in five years"
 1 Prevailing modes of dress were se- verely criticised by Col. J. J. Boniface l in an address that brought round after round of applause.

STATE UNIT OF
 BUY SCOUTS IS ORGANIZED HERE
Leading Men From All Parts Of State Attend State Organization Meet ing-Need Of Leadership For Boys Brought Out

Arizona blazed the trail in organiza- ton of a state Boy Scout unit when representative citizens from all sec tions ofsthe state met at the Adams hotel last night and perfected a tenn poraIy organization to complete pio- neering work. Officers elected, to serve until election of permanent of ficers and the next meeting sometime in January are:
 Chairman. Governor Thomas F. Campbell; vice. chairman, Col. J. p. Thompson: secretary. l.. C. Snow; state advisory council, Senator E. l. Whiting, Apache county; Judge Sapp, Navajo county; Tom Devin Mohave county: Thomas E. Pollock Coconino county: Walter Miller and E. $. Clark Yavapai county; Senator Mulford Windsor, Yuma county; James NJ Lawton and Leo Goldschmitt, Pima county; Judge W. $. Boyd, Pinal county; F. E. Webb, Gila county; R.. A. Whitson. Graham county; R. F. Kyle, Greenlee county; A. c. McGreg- or. Cochise county; Bracy Curtis, San ia Cruz county, and Dwight B. Heard, Maricopa county.
 Eleven of the IA counties in the state were represented at the organ iZation meeting. many of the districts sending four or five representatives. The SUlTll or the OGEdSiOn was ItdQllN absorbed by those in attendance with a result that organization plans were completed with speed and dispatch. Throughout the evening there was an enthusiastic trend that presaged suc- cess in the effort to make Arizona HOO per cent behind the Boy Scout movement"
 Need of Organization Shown
 Need for organization was forcibly brought to the attention of the dele gates in stirring addresses by Charles N. Miller. national field scout execu- tive; Col. J. J. Boniface, inspector instructor Arizona National Guard; J. IT. Larson, superintendent of the state industrial school at Fort Grant, and Judge Shute of the Gila county juve- nile court. Other addresses were made by Governor Thomas F. Campbell who acted as toastmaster. Col. J. E. Thompson. who sponsored the meet ing. Col. P. r Conway, P. $. Clark and D. J Winslett vice commander of the American legion.
 Scouting is a new form of insur- ance for the future generation.' Field Executive Miller declared. "It will guarantee the character of the men of tomorrow; it will upbuild the physical. mental and moral youth oi today.
 Juvenile delinquency in the United States has increased 200 per cent dur ing the past four years. And why Because the boys lack leadership. This alarming increase in delinquency does not mean an increasing number of bad boys. If you would make { good boy give him good things to dc and good things to think about. Show him that you have every confidence il hoyhood and he will make good. Boy go wrong only when they have i'm proper leadership.
 The Need of Leadership
 "The average boy of today has 500 waking hours each year. Of this 100 hours are spent in the school room another thousand hours are spent fl the home and church, leaving hin 5000 hours of unsupervised time. De
