LEAVES FOR WORK IN FRANCE

Lorne w. Barclay. director OF the
national council, department OF ECU
cation, Boy Scouts Of America, has
again been loaned for the summer to
the American committee for devastated
France of which Miss Anne Morgan
is chairman. Mr.. Barclay sailed for
France in May and will there direct
five scout camps. This work Is prov
ing a notable contribution to the up
building Of war-stricken France AS
Mr.. Barclay said In his recent report;
"These boys lived in ruined homes;
they have been out of school for i've
years; there is no place for them to
find companionship in their villages
unless they go to the wine shops.
They have suffered so much that they
are undeveloped physically and mental
ly, yet they crave good wholesome edu-
cation and recreation. They only ask
the chance to grow into manhood with
all the best scout ideals Of courage.
selfdenial, honesty and endurance"
Many boy scout troops in the Uni
ted States have contributed $25 each.
which means that each troop will have
as Its guest at one of the camps, q
French boy, who will not only gain
UNNECESSARILY himself by the expert
ence, but who will also go home car
rying the message of scouting with
him to reach other boys and the com
munity.

Modern crusoes.

Crusoes of today are not so few as
many people suppose. Notwlthstand-
ing that In these times almost every
part of the seven seas is trayersed by
Ships lonely castaways are being res
cued every year. Now an instance
comes from the Pacific. and now from
the South Atlantic. Yet there are
castaways who are discovered too late.
Recently a United States wind jam
mer" rounding Cape Horn had occa-
sion to send boat ashore to look for
water on one of the desolate islands
off the PatagOnian coast. They found
more than water. In rOughlymade
little wigwam built in sheltered spot
near the shore, they discovered the re-
mains of seaman Of unknown ma
tionality. BY the wreckage strewn
about, 1t was conjectured he was the
sole survivor of some vessel that had
gone down in that neighborhood.

soning. unfounded terror. His eyes
wandered from the lantern to the door
to the blanket hanging Imply In the
door; and there they stared and stayed
as though held In the spell of SER
pent. Subconsciously, certainly with
out any direction of will of his own,
he raised the shot gun to his shoulder
and kept 1t trained on the sagging
blanket. The blanket seemed to
move! 1t swayed at first as though a
light breeze had touched 1t and yet
not as though breeze had touched It,
The impulse seemed too far up-about
the height of mans shoulder. The
blood had gone from Allan's face; he
was as one In n trance, 0beying some
iron law outside the realm Of the will
and the reason. He cooked his gun
and frightened his finger on the trig-
ger, and watched. And then,
so plain that it must have been real,
he saw stealthy fingers feeling their
way about the blanket.
Then Allan fired.
In an instant he was wide awake,
and wondering terribly what had hap
pened. The explosion blew out the
lantern, and the building was In utter
darkness. His father was clambering
to his feet with "Allan, what Is 1t?
What Is it, Allan?" The blanket had
been torn from its hangings as by a
heavy weight, and something was
writing in it in the doorway. Allan
sprang up and would have rushed upon
1t. but in the darkness he collided with
another man. His fingers found his
adversary's arm and ran up 1t to his
throat, but before they could fasten In
fatal grip there was another flash Of
light. and hot pang stabbed him in
the breast. There was strange CUR

throat, spinning dizziness in his head,

Gardiner had reached the window
just in time to see Allan's gun trained
on the doorway. For an instant he
stood dunbfounded; there was some

back to warn Rifles, but he was too

sAvE-THE.FoREsT CAMPAIGN.

As soon as President Harding ap-
pointed May % to % as Forest Pres
ervation week, the Boy Scouts Of
America Immediately offered their
services in promotion Of the cause to
which they have all along been def
nitely committed. When the secre-
tary Of agriculture wrote requesting
the cooperation Of the organization
the national council. through its chief
scout executive, gladly accepted the
task and urged its scout leaders all
over the country to get busy at once.
The plan is to have every scout troop
promise to plant II ees and care for
them, as many have been doing for
some years past, to spread forest fire
prevention propaganda throughout the
country and get as many people as pos
sible In and out of the scout move
ment actively enlisted In this impor-
tant cause.

"Yes-what amuses you:" Helen
added.
"Oh. 1t is too funny for words. l

Hazel began to laugh again, and
this time she was Joined by the other
two.
And there are no burglars after
all?" said Helen, disconsolately.
Hazel looked at her, astonished at
her tone. You regret it?" she asked
Helen shook her head. "No-of
course not. But was just telling
your brother how deadly dull it is
here visiting my aunt and this had
given me hope of little diversion at
least"
"Why don't you-but oh. I'm going
away on the afternoon train. l was
going to ask you to come in to see
u.s." Hazel told her.
ut Is good of you. I'd love to come"
Tom quickly came to the subject.
Hazel won't be gone long, Miss Rog-
ers, and perhaps, If you don't mind,
you could happen up on the roof after
dinner in the evening and I-well, l
could be looking for further burglars"
he laughed.
Hazel looked at her brother. 1t was
unusual for him to have SO .'esourceful
mind. He was not given much to
doing anything but attending to his
business. "And by the time get home
you will be better acquainted" she
said.
"Would you?" Tom asked. would
you be able to do that?"
Helen nodded Eyes, Aunt goes
about a lot to meetings, and l can
easily get to the roof. And"
"Oh, yes; and after l return I'll
make the acquaintance of your aunt If
you like and you may come properly to
see u.s." Hazel told the girl. "And now
l must hurry and pack Sit down

Tom had to get back TO his Office
with the papers he had been forced
to return for, and Helen said she
would stay and help Hazel pack IL she
needed her. I'D love to put back the
things and tidy up while you're get
ting ready" she exclaimed, girlishly.
"It's almost like being back home with
my chum Mary, I miss her So"
This little admission quite touched
Hazel. and the two girls worked to-
gether for an hour.
When Hazel Foster returned from
her vacation at the shore she found
that something warmer than friend
ship had developed in the relations be-
tween her brother and Helen.
"And I'm so glad" she whispered to
Helen after many things had been
said. 1--we been wanting to tell a
certain man that I'd marry him. but
l didn't know what on earth to do
with Tom If did"
'Tll take care of him If he asks me"
Helen confided.

be waiting to know what to do with
me-"

Lorne w. Barclay.

This is what a French boy scout
wrote last summer from the camp at
Compiegne:
"What l am learning is worth the
sacrifice you made in letting me go
from the work In the field. I will
work all the harder when l go home
but i must make scout of every boy
