Tells of Local Boy Scouts
Camp of Past Summer

and the woods seemed to be full of
Scouts. In all directions there was
an evidence of what you would ex-
pect of a boy who subscribes to the
Scout pledge which is as follows:
"On my honor. I will do my best
ITO do my duty to God and my
country, and to obey the scout law.
ITO help other people at all times.
ITO keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake n morally
straight.
IF this short description will in
duce a number Of persons to go to
the Boy Scout Camp next summer
and witness for themselves the
scenes which so much impressed
the writer, he will feel that his ef-
forts have not been in vain and he
is sure that those who see the real
work being done by the Boy Scouts
of America-will take an interest in
the movement and will be willing to
aid at all times. both morally and
financially, in this great work.

Perth Amboy evening news., 1921-10-28

II. w. Fisher of this city, who is
greatly interested in the work of the
Boy Scouts. has written the follow
ing account of the activities of h
boys camp at Bear Mountain. at
tended by Scouts from this city:
THE people Of Perth Amboy, who
contributed to the Boy Scout Cam
paign Fund. would have been we'll
satisfied with their investment IL
they could have accompanied the
writer on his visit this summer to
the Boy Scout Camp at Bear Noun
tain.
THE writer with some friends OF
the Boy Scouts arrived in the camp
on Sunday morning about 10 O'Clock
and proceeded TO visit several of the
camps, particularly the n occupied
by our Perth Amboy boys, some of
whom spent a good deal of their
time in showing us the various.camps
and telling us about their life there.
One boy must have had at least
twelve or fourteen merit badges
of which he was d~eservedly proud.
We were very much impressed with
tho dining room which was adjacent
to one of the beautiful lakes, where
the boys, surrounded by. most pic
turesque scenery, could enjoy a

ure of dining at the camp and wit
Messing real boys life in its enthu-
siasm and earnestness.
Everywhere there was an ap-
pearance of order, contentment and
happiness and we could not help but
feel that IL every father. mother,
brother and sister in Perth Amboy
could have visited the camp as we
did, and witnessed the inspiration,
repose and enthusiasm which evil
IDENTIFY filled the life of the boys
there. there would be no hesitation
in subscribing literally to the Boy
Scout movement when a drive is on.
No one can gainsay the fact that If
half of our boys belonged to the Boy
Scouts and could attend such a camp
as that at Bear Mountain for two
weeks each year, that we would
have a much better community as
time goes on.
I'm order to see something of
evening camp life, the writer and
party were able to make sleeping
eservations at the family camp.
This gave us the opportunity OF
going to one of the camp fires where
the boys sans songs around a huge
bonfire. The exuberance of healthy
youth was in evidence everywhere

Nothing has yet been decided
about who the next national chair

all OF whom have played prominent

that either of them will be chosen

That is why a fight, which has

Takes Box.

WASHINGTON, Oct 1s.-Nearly thou
sand copies of a House committee report
on the escape of G. C. Bergdoll, the draft
dodger. and q big wooden box containing
certain Bergdoil documents together
with many private letters and papers
We're stolen last night from the office Of
Representative Ben Johnson (kyD.
Democrat
The theft Of the reports. written by
Mr. johnson and printed at his own
expense, was not discovered until late
to-day while tAe Washington police We're
still trying 10 get on the trall OF the
thieves by examination OF finger prints
on the window panes. one of which was
partially removed Entering the window
of the office, on the main floor OF the
House Office Building and adjacent "
the House post office. the thieves made
no attempt to steal articles OF pecuniary
value and the room was not ransacked.
The box, bigger than a steamer trunk,
was only partly filled with papers, and
by shaking It round. Mr. Johnson said
the thieves easily could have learned
that il contained nothing as heavy as a
bottle OF whisl1ey, product which. It
was said, robbers lately have sought in
the building. 1t was dragged through
the door, the marks being plainly visible.
But Capitol police, some OF them as
signed to duty only II short distance
away during the night, declared it could
not have been taken from the building
without their knowledge. They had
failed tonight, however. to locate 1t.
"I have TO hesitaDcy,'' said MI john
son, lin saying that .tle robbery was
for the purpose OF securing certain par
ticular papers. as we'll as to have the
opportunity to look over other private
papers of mine Since have been asked
the direct question. Will state that
the box contained some papers con-
nected with the recent Bergdoll in
vestigation besides very private and
important papers.
"All circumstances point conclusively
TO a desire for certain important papers
as the object OF the robbery. The box
which was taken contained nothing
whatever Of pecuniary or material
value, while rnauy articles of value were
lying in full view.

and she saw news reel which had
picture OF a Queen being driven about
the streets of her city In gorgeous
carriage. with the people bowling and
scraping and tho traffic cops making a
passage for her vehicle.
Rosie wes tremendously impressed
with this. because she thought the lady
was an actress and that all the poH1p

Rosie, as a matter OF fact, couldn't

pretty, and she had no. charm whatever
that the movies could show. Rosie
finally decided that the lady wasn't do

Rosie had no gorgeous carriage. but
