An appeal has been made to citizens
of the state to catch adult fish for the

double the fish crop at Bass Lake next
season. Fish taken at this season of

better breeders, according to the
hatchery experts.

BOY SCOUT CAMP IN FRANCE

BY invitation of the American Com
mlttee for Devastated France, Lorne
w. Barclay, director OF the education
al department Of the Boy Scouts Of
America, has established camp
school for boys Of the devastated re-
glons. The school is In the form of n
boys camp Of large size, located on
the Aisne river, on the edge Of the
greater battlehelds.
Many OF the boys In the camrs are
orphans whom the war deprived Of all
relatives. and there are others who
have not been In school and have been
practically without care since 1911.
Scouting rs developed In the United
States is recognized as the best In
the world, and II IS to teach these
boys scouting of this kind, especially
camp activities, that Mr. Barclay was
loaned by the national council to the
American committee. The boys in the
camp are divided into troops and pa
trolls, following the American plan,
under scoutmasters and patrol lead
ers, who are of the regular organiza-
ton of French boy scouts, They are
being taught team-play, sanitation,
personal health and all that makes
for clean morals. Mr. Barclay took
with him samples of all kinds of tents
and equipment for up-to-date camp
ing. to serve as models to use In this
camp school In France.
