THE SCOUT MOVEMENT.

The monthly publication Of the bu.
reau of education, department of the
Interior, epitomizes in a recent issue
the work which the scout organization
Is attempting to carry out through its
boy training program. 1t says:
"The scout movement makes no
claim to supersede the work of home
or school or church. On the contrary,
II aims to supplement these institu-
tons and to cooperate with them in
in every practicable way in a sane,
all-round development Of American
youth. Scouting has been described
as the process of making real boys
into real men by real program that
works. This program is adapted to
the boys leisure hours, but it's prin-
ciples are the kind that permeate ev.
cry phase Of his life, becoming part
and parcel Of himself. Character de-
velopment Is the keynote Of scouting.
"He Is better son and brother a
more alert student, heartier adher.
ent to the church Of his affiliation be-
cause he is also good scout. Later
on he will be more responsible and
valuable American citizen for his scout
training now"

of Jesse James during his COM

since he left Kentucky. On one
of his escapades he forced a Gin
cinnati chauffeur, at the point of
gun, to drive him to West Point,
Ky, where he intended holding up
a bank, but he was stopped by mil
litary police and took to the
woods when they sought to place
him under arrest.
Slaughter was arrested in
Wichita, Kansas, where he at
tempted a daylight robbery, and
was taken to Hot Springs to face
trial for the murder of the officer,
whom he killed to escape capture
when surrounded.
At Cave City. Slaughter got
more than $1,000 after locking the
cashier in the vault. He escaped
with his partner, believed to have
been a woman masquerading in
male attire, after exchanging
shots with posse, abandoning
one automobile under fire and la
ter stealing horse and buggy
and then an auto to cross into
