LOCAL SCOUT WORK

The boys here are taking fine
interest in the boy scout work.
While not yet scouts, they are
studying earnestly and thu prom
ise is good for the troop to stand
the tenderfoot test right soon.
In fact, We hope to be ready for
the examination the first of next
month. Our troop is about fill.
ed out. We will soon send in our
application for charter and com
missions.
What we need is more earnest
parental cooperation. The
scoutmaster is doing his best
and with such help from the par
ents we will have a troop to be
proud of.
The troop committee compos.

it can to make this work success
full.
: We now have good quarters at
the Methodist church. Plenty
of room and light in the annex

often oy the scouts and other So
cial agencies at work here.
The purpose of scouting is to
make of our boys healthful,
clean and patrioict Americans.
Their motto is ''Be prepared"
The purpose: "Do good turn

Let's all help where We can
AID let the scouts know we are
with them for all they stand for.
