 At Goodyear Robert W. Boys heads the committee on organization that rep 1 resents that village and associated with 1 him are Percy Tepnllett, Max Pafenbach 1 John Ward, Robert Morrison and Thom- | as Grove
 Danielson and Goodyear were the only 1 two places in town that were represent ed at the meeting, but it was armed l that Attawaugan, which has a Boy Scout | in which c. H. Truesdell and Hector Mcconnell and other well known citizens are interested viii join in any town i movement intendings to increase the i'm portance of the Boy scout movement here.
 In addressing the meeting here R. M. ! Berry, New England scoutmaster of l Boston, explained at length the Boy i Scout movement. He particularly stress ed the patriotic sentiments that surround l it and indicated in an entertaining man ner the benefits to the country and to bers of carefully tfained Boy Scout 1 troops.
 MT. Berry explained that the Boy Scout organization is not denominatfon- 1 al. Many have gained the impression that it is strictly-a Protestant organiza- tion. This is far from the truth, for t | is entirely non-sectarian. In maay | towns and cities Catholic Boy Scouts are as numerous as Protestant Boy Scouts, 1 and bishops of the Catholio church I'll many states hare given their endorse ment to the Boy Scouts of Aneric1 which helps to train boys in c1ean anl healthy ways of living, teaches them to do good for all how to take care of themselves and of others in many emer- gencies and many other things that are q benefit to the boys physically, men !, tally and morally
 Yha hope is to organize several troops 1 of Boy Scouts in Danielson, the more the merrier. Attention Will be given to the work at once, and good pesults are expected 10 foiloW.
