BOY SCOUT ON LONG JAUNT.
Hiking in Small Boat and on FOOT
from Omaha to Gulf.

reporter of Omaha, Neb., passed

SchoIes astrted out in l2-foQt

June IS, to make a river trip from
Omaha to the gulf. After an exciting
three weeks trip from Omaha to st.
! Charles, Mo-, a distance Of 700 miles
| by river, the boat was wrecked IN
a severe storm July 4. Undaunted
the lad went on to St. Louis and de-
cided to walk to the gulf. He has
passed through Arkansas, Missouri,
Mississippi and Louisiana on ms
trip.
The river trip was made in sixteen
days and two nights, exclusive OF
istopoVers. Almost five years exper-
fence as a boy scout prepared the
youth for the camping life, and he
cooked his own meals and slept out IN
the open the whole distance. Snags,
whirlpools, sandbars and strips Of
bad water" did not harm the boat.
The walking trip proved interest
! ing, Scholes says. Meeting all classes
of people, from the poor whites to
the governors of states, he found
plenty Of interesting things to write
up for his paper, the Omaha Bee. He
camped out and cooked his own food
through Missouri and Arkansas but
accepted the offers of lodging of sew
eral Mississippi plantation owners.

of the alluvial soil causing the Won

will never seem unreal to me again.

Arriving in Baton Rouge just few

Reception Appreciated.

"The Chief was very much pleas
ed with the reception accorded me at
the recent meeting Of the 0. E. S.,
held at the Masonic temple. The
ceiling fans furnished delightful
breezes and there was no lack of en-
thusiasm on the part Of the members,
especially the acting W. M. and the
w. r. The latter would be a credit to
any organization. The talks by the
visitors were interesting and inspired
the local members for more work and
better attendance. There was music
and several solos promised for the
next meeting when we hope to see
every officer at his post and large
number of members present. Ar
engagements are being made to serve
refreshments, and committee for
that purpose will be selected. Other

by a Score Of to z.

The local baseball team added an
other feather to its cap by defeating
the Houma second nine in q spirited
game at the fair grounds last Sun
day; the score being s to 2. The
visitors were no match for Ran
dazzo's classy bunch, who played
rings around. them. Robert, Of the
home team, pitched six innings with
out allowing a hit or run and the
light Houma lads famed the wind in
their vain attempts to connect with
his. speedy delivery. Hanson, who
succeeded Robert, allowed only one
hit in three innings and secured three
strikeouts. The visitors escaped a
shut-out by scoring two runs in the
eighth inning. The feature Of the
game was the hitting and pitching of
Robert and the infield playing of VII
tale at short and Forrest at third.
The crowd at the game was larger
than usual, and there were a num-
Der of ladies in attendance.

Connecticut already has aerial laws on its

these laws are, they represent at least a
genuine beginning. For instance, they provide
that every owner Of aircraft retained in the
state shall file annually In the office of the
Secretary Of State statement including his
name residence and postofice address, a de-
scription of each aeroplane in his possession
and other information as required by the Sec
retary. These provisions are far from COM

blazed the way across the continent but these
aerodromes are isolated oases in vast ex-

are separated by hundred of miles, making
flying expensive and hazardous. The Federal
