LAY CORNER Stone
New Home of Department
Scene of Impressive
Ceremony.

! BALLSTON, Va, November IAN
! impressive ceremony here Sunday
marked the laying of the corner stone
lcf the new home of the Ballston
volunteer fire department. The at
tendance. which included practically
the entire population of the town,
| men, women and children, and many
visitors from other parts of the county
and elsewhere, taxed the capacity of
| the new building, which, while not
entirely completed. is habitable. and
loverfiowed away int othe street.
| Several months ago, a small group
of men, with nothing more than
\ firm resolve and determination to sue
ceed, put the wheels in motion to pro-
| vide a home for the department. Inn
petuS was given the project shortly
afterward when they obtained an ap-
preparation of several hundred dollars
financial aid was forthcoming from
practically every household in the
| community.
| One thing which makes the citizens
idoubly proud of their undertaking is
the fact that not q cent has been paid
our for labor on the building, the
work on the structure having been
done by the mechanics of the town
evenings after their regular work of
the day was over.
Progress Of Work.
The exterior of the building. which
| is of hollow tile, pebble dash and
brick construction. with a roof of red
| freproof shingling, is completed and
| 1t is expected the work on the in
| terror, which includes a concrete
\ flooring and plastering, will be COM
pleted in the next month or so.
| Preceding the laying of the corner
stone interesting addresses were
| made by Maj. L. w. r. Ewing of
Ballston, Representative B. G. Lowry
of the second congressional district
OF Mississippi, Frank L. Ball, COM
monwealth's attorney, and Edward J.
Plarr, fire chief. John r. Lyons
served as master of ceremonies.
Maj. Ewing gave an entertaining
| discourse on the history of the de-
partment, and in u jucular vein told
l of the time when the department had
nothing but an old broken tin bucket
! with which to fight fires. He paid a
glowing tribute to the persons in

strumental In bringing the depart
ment up to its present point of ef-
ficiency.
Representative Lowry talked at
length on the importance Of COM
munity spirit and corporation, tell
ing several interesting stories OF
back home" happenings which re-
suited in the adoption of tfese two
essentials necessary to the growth OF
any community.
Words of praise were also given
the citizens responsible for the erec-
tion of the new home by Mr. Ball.
He. too, remembered the old days. he
said. and even though the fire-fight-
ing equipment of Ballston was very
limited, it did not deter the firemen
from making valiant effort to get
there" and do the best they could.
Short addresses were made by c. C..
Donaldson, fire chief of the Cherry
dale volunteer fire department, and
g. II. McCrillis. fire marshal of the
Clarendon department. both of whom
congratulated the Ballston depart
ment on it's aggressive spirit and
promised cooperation and support OF
their departments.
Invocation was pronounced by Rev.

Christian Church, and the stone was
laid by Fire Chief Edward J. Plarr

FIRST TO WIN GOLD MEDAL

Dale Collier Of Rock Island, Ill.,. has
the honor of being the first scout to
win the new gold medal just designed
Tor the Court of Honor by Belmcre
Brown, the explorer. Tie incident
which won the coveted National Scout
Medal of Honor for young Collier oc-
cured last January.
The boy had just started on an er-
rand for his mother when he noticed
tilree men walking on the ice on the
river Even as he saw them he per-
cciFed 70 his horror that the ice was
breaking beneath them. He ran about
300 yards and found an old boat.
There We're no oars but he snatched
up piece Of board and jumping into
the boat broke his way through to
where one Of the men was sinking.
The boy threw him the board and
pulled the boat, fast filling with wa
ter close to the man, got him into It
and back to shore Then emptying
out the boat he set out again in search
Of the others. This time, not having

his way through the ice downstream
with his fists. BY this arduous process
he finally got to where the other two
men were. He managed with much
difficulty to get both into the boat.
which then began to sink from the
weight and having shipped so much
water. The men being unconscious,
the boy bailed for dear life with his
hands, screaming for help. Another
boat reached them in time and all
were gotten ashore. Not content with
his already heroic achievement young
Collier worked over the unconscious
men trying to induce artificial resplra-
ton He succeeded In the case of
one man but the other who was Just
recovering from an illness never re-
gained consciousness. The story Is
one Of the most striking of the many
noteworthy instances of scout pluck
and resOurcefulness that have passed
through the hands Of the Court of
Honor and Scout Collier well deserves
the honor accorded him.

subject especially interesting to

Why the addition of considerable
quantities of straw have harmful
effect on the crop Immediately fol

non-available form in the soil The
more straw applied, the more rapidly

is known to be a vital requisite for

A G. A. r. VERDICT.

A G. A. r. veteran OF Columbus,
Ohio, says: "While attending our Grand
army encampments for the past few
years in many cities Of the United
States l have come to the conclusion
we could not get along without the
boy scouts everything help. They are
the first persons we meet when we
get off the train, to carry our luggage
to our stopping place, and If we
have no place engaged they will take
us to one and see that we are made
comfortable. They can beat the police
at their own game when 1t comes to
watching a street crossing or keeping
the streets clear for parade. They
are always on hand with a cool cup
of water; In fact everywhere to do
good deed for somebody. l have
learned to love them. l consider the
boy scout movements one of the best
schools OF American education. I say
God bless them and the men who CON
tribute their time and money to boost
them. Boys, the Grand Army of the
Republic are your friends"

worst to all passing tires. Two lads
in khaki happened along" Instantly
their sharp eyes took in the situation.

unison and swooped down upon the
broken bits OF glass, which In another
moment were gathered up and depos-
tied in the proper receptacle. An ex-
cellent object lesson this, to all who
witnessed the incident and another
proof that scouting is doing just what
1t claims to do-makes responsible
citizens.
A small boy pushed accidentally to
the ground in school yard recently
suffered a broken leg. Instantly there
were boy scouts at hand to take charge
