SCOUT LEADERS ASSEMBLE

The eleventh annual meeting Of the
national council. Boys Scouts of Amer
lea. took place at the Hotel Commo-
dore, New York city, recently, with
scout men to the number of 1914 pres
eLt, from 36 states, representing the
enormous volunteer leadership Of the
country. These men come together
every year TO. review the work Of the
past II months and to make plans
for the future.
The spirit Of the whole meeting was
admirably expressed In the forceful
pilraseology of the Chief Scout Execu-
tive James e. West. as follows:
1T must be ever borne ip mind that
the basis Of strength and power Of the
boy scout movement will not be meas
ured alone by the number of scouts
and scout officials, the records of ac-
tivity of the national council. or num-
ber Of local councils organized; these
are but means to an end. The value
of the scout movement will be judged
by the individual boy scout--his con-
duct, appearance, the way he puts in
to practice the scout oath and law and
reveals that he is actually prepared
to do things worth while because of
the program of activities Of the Boy
Scouts Of America"
Resolutions were passed endorsing
the work of the Kiwanis and Rotary
clubs In giving scouting and other
boy programs generous support and
sympathy and greetings were ordered
sent to the boy scouts Of Great Brit
ain. France and Belgium, in partic-
ular, and to boy scouts everywhere
throughout the world. II was also
voted to continue the cooperation with
the American committee for devastated
France by again lending LorIe M.
Barclay, director of the department of
education of the national council for
a period of six months to the work Of
the committee in France, looking for
ward to the development Of scouting
in France and particularly to assist
In bringing about unification Of the
various branches of the scout move
ments In that country.

HoNoRs FOR BRAVE SCOUTS.

During the year 1920 the national
court Of honor of the Boy Scouts Of
America issued medals as follows to
scouts for conspicuous service In life
saving and first aid:
Two gold medals, 13 silver medals,
II bronze medals. The gold medal
cases were particularly striking, In
volving the heroic rescue of two chill
dren from burning building by a
young assistant scoutmaster, George
Noble Of Charlton, Ia, and another
remarkably self-forgetful and fine at
tempt on the part Of scout, Joseph
Mardis Of Troop No. 1, East Liver
pool, to save his scoutmaster from a
fallen live wire at the imminent risk
Of his own life. Nine Of the silver
medal cases were water accidents, and
In each case the rescuer showed ex-
septional courage and clearheaded-
ness. The other silver medal cases
were live wire rescue, the rescue Of
children from burning building and
from automobile and truck accidents.
The third scout law requires that, a
scout shall be prepared at any time
to save life and help injured persons,
and the records Of the court Of honor
abundantly prove that the boys are
living up to this obligation In full
measure In addition to these 80
medals already mentioned, 81 letters
Of commendation were sent by the
court of honor to boys who per-
formed deeds Of exceptional excel
lence in life saving and first aid, with
out risk to their own lives.

Expenses Borne Jointly.
Federal expenditures under cooper
ative agreements with states would,
under the bill, have to be at least
equaled by state expenditures derived
either from general taxation or from
owners Of forest lands under state re-
quirements. The bill also provides
for survey of the forest resources
and requirements of the country, for
experiments and investigations in re-
forestation and methods Of cutting and
utilizing timber, for enlarged pur-
chases of lands for federal admins
tration as national forests, and for
various other features of national
program of forestry.
In urging the necessity for action,
Colonel Greeley pointed out that the
essential problem Of providing for fu-
ture needs Is a national one.

"The growing of timber cannot be
left to private initiative alone. Under
the bill the federal government will
assume the. technical leadership Of the
ief0restation movement throughout
the country. While in the prairie
states cooperation would have to deal
chiefly with tree planting, in other
states 1t should cover technical meth
DDS of fire prevention, Of disposal Of
debris left in logging, Of cutting vari-
GUS types of timber so as TO secure a
new crop of the kind desired, and the
like.
The largest and most important
field of cooperation, however, In all
states containing extensive forest
areas is in the prevention Of forest
fires. This Is the first step to a con-
tinuous supply of timber. Once the
vast area Of eut-over land suitable
for timber production Is really pro-
