SCOUTS ON "QUEST."

When Sir Ernest Schackleton de.
eided few months ago to take two
boys along with him on his forthcom
Ing antarctic expedition, he stipulated
that they must be scouts, for well he
knew that he could count on a true
scout to be loyal, obedlent, reliable,
trained In outdoor craft cheerful in
hardshlp-''prepared In every sense.
Among the hundreds of applicants for
the privilege of accompanying the
famous explorer on his great adven.
ture, the choice was narrowed down
at length, TO two Scotch laddics, both
patrol leaders and enthusiastic scouts.
by name, J. W. S. Mari of Aberdeen
and ~ Il. Mooney OF Klrkwall in the
Orkneys. Both boys are up on sea
lore as well as woodcraft. Young
Mooney came 600 miles to present him
self as candidate for the exped.
tion and had never seen a passenger
train up to that time. Every true
scout the world over will envy these
two lads their privilege Of sailing as
cabin boys on the Quest on jour.
ney of romance and adventure and
mystery and every scout will be proud
that in making his selection Sir
Ernest recognized and paid q tribute
to scouting as a maker Of manly men,
fit to share so great a task as he has
set for himself.

SNAKE LIKES TREATMENT

Boy scouts stopping at Camp Mat

N. Y, are taking particular interest
these days in the activities Of two

and liberated few days ago after be-

The snake sustained severe cut
ON the back, and the scouts, believing
that the creature was going to die,
brought 1t to Edwin A. Osborne Of
Richmond Ill., the camp herpetolo-
glst, who applied an antlseptic wash
and let the snake go. The next day
the reptile was found a short distance
from camp and brought back, when
a second treatment was rendered.

GROWTH OF SEA SCOUTING.

Sea scouting as an older boy activ.
ity Is taking strong hold Of the Boy
Scouts of America. From December
l, 1920, to July 10, 1921, there has
been an increase Of 30 per cent in the
number of sea-scout troops organ
tied. Sea scouting remains undevel-
oped in only one Of the twelve dis
trlcts In which the country is divided
for scouting purposes-the Texas
New Mexico division, which is natur-
ally less suited than the other local
tiles for aquatic work and play.
The summer national sea-scout
camp at Marion, Mass, was great
success, the boys getting in some real
seafaring experience, cruising around
Buzzards bay and incidentally visit
ing many points of historic and pic
turesque interest along the beautiful
shores Of the bay.
This camp was an especially inter-
esting one in that 1t was run by the
scouts themselves, boys having
reached the highest rank in scoutins
being the camp leaders, acting as
Junior officers, bosn's, bosn's mates,
coxswains, etc.

SCOUTS HANDLE TRAFFIC.

Scouts of the North Shore, North
west and Hyde Park districts handled
traffic of over 5000 automobiles on
the occasion of the recent Indian cele-
bratlon near Chicago. They also gave
some fine scout demonstrations and
proved their ability to render real as
well as fictitious first aid, for when a
young Indian got hurt in a lacrosse
game they treated his injury promptly
and efficiently and, improvising a coat
stretcher, carried the victim to the
nearby hospital.
