SCOUTS SUGGEST ENROLMENT

June, 1927, showed the biggest en-
rollment Of scouts In the history OF
the movement, fact which ought to
be a matter of pride and congratula-
tion to all concerned. The more boys
that come under the influences OF
scouting, the healthier, happier, finer
will the boyhood Of America be, the
greater the promise Of Its future. 1t
Is not meaningless chance that makes
us hear on every side that boy scouts
aren't In the police courts, that boy
scouts are in the honor rolls Of Nsiir
schools, that boy scouts are perform
ing this or that civic service. Scouting
rings true to Its aims. 1t not only
claims to fit boys for manhood but 1t
does 1t, so why shouldn't we be proud
that the Boy Scouts Of America num-
bers an active membership Of over
100000. Why shouldn't we salute and
pay all honor to the scoutmaster, the
volunteer leader Of boyhood under
great banner to>a great goalf Why
shouldn't we say to them and each
other: "Come on, let's make 1t 5O0,-

Pittsburgh boys scouts gathered wild

One of the most conspicuous noun

Rhine, which was both the scOurge and
terror of the region. The legend of

Romans decided to curb 1t by taking
prisoner to the dragons cave daily.
One day girl. so pretty that two CEN
turions resolved to fight to see who
would claim her, was taken prisoner.
The Roman general interfered and de-
cided that to settle the affair neither
should get her, but that she should be
given to the dragon. This was consid-
cred In the army as decision rank
ing with the judgment of Solomon.
The girl, Christian, was taken to
the cave, and the monster soon ap-
peared. The beast howled, smached
his lips and ratified It's scales like TAM

fix, which she displayed to the beast.

Burial Most Common Practice

There are two ideas of the proper
disposal of the body when its spirit
has fed-one that it shall be preserved
so long as possible, the other that 1t
shall be destroyed by the natural pro.
cess Of decay or by fire. Burial In
the EARTH the most economic method,
is the common practice the world over
at the present time.
Religious beliefs usually control ac-
ton in this matter. Death has been
long utilized by priests as the most
effective natural event for the instruc-
tion Of men In faith and doctrine.
whence came the solemn ceremonies
with which all are familiar. The word
funeral, meaning drawn OUT in the
Latin from which it is derived, marks
universal tendency in Its ceremo
malls.

Dyck had at last secured real sue

MalOw asked with sneer:<

Don't they teach it where you live

At this Mallow flicked Dyck across

Dyck had been drinking, or he would
not have spoken sO and when he was
drunk daring was strong in him. He
hated profoundly this man-so self
satisfied and satanic.
He kept q perfect GOODNESS, however.
Leonard Mallow should not see that
he was upset. His wanton word..Iess
came to his rescue, and until the end
of the game he played with sang-froid,
daring and SKILL He loved cards; he
loved the strife Of skill against skill,
of trick agaiD-t trick, of hand against
hand. He had never fought duel In
his life. tut he had no fear Of doing So.

all he had lost, he rose to his feet and

Several stepped forward. Dyck
nodded. One of them he knew. 1t was

"thank you. Shall 1t be swords or pls-
tols?" he asked his enemy coolly.
"Swords, If you please" remarked
Mallow grimly, for he had a gift with
the sword.
Dyck nodded again.
"As you will. As you will !"
Never in all Ireland's years had she
a more beautiful day than that In
which Dyck Calhoun and the Hon.
Leonard Mallow met to settle their ac-
count in a secluded corner Of Phoenix
park. 1t was not the usual place for
duels. The seconds had taken care to
keep the locale from the knowledge Of
the public; especially as many who had
come to know of the event at the
Breakneck club were eager to be pres
ent.
The affair began an hour after sun
rise. Neither Dyck nor Leonard NAL

in separate taverns near Phoenix park.
