There is something about that scout
oath and law of ours that puts the
iron in the blood and the steel into the
soul says Richard Brauenstein of
Sharon. Conn.
just think what the result will he
when every boy of scout age in the
land begins to interpret that oath and
law in his daily life, his walk and talk.
We will be giving the world what Pro
fessor James calls "the moral equiva-
lent of war"
This learned man said, ''The martial
character can be bred without war
He tells us that the military ideals
of hardihood and discipline can be
imbued into the life of young Amer
lea, by conscripting every man into
the struggle with nature.
ITO coal and iron mines, to freight
trains. to fishing fleets in December
to road building and stoke holes and
to the frames of skyscrapers would
our gilded youth be drafted to get the
childishness knocked out of them and
to come back to society with healthier
sympathies and soberer IDEAS"
1t was Tennyson who wrote. Peace
hath her victories no less renowned
than war" And in that oath and law
of ours | see potentialties, sublimities
