SWELLED HEAD DANGEROUS
Busy-ness Is Always Necessary to

This story Is selected as one Of many thou

swelled head is not safe counselor in bust

succeed he must keep moving
Wisely Entered a Homestead.
A poor man entered 100 acres OF land
under the homestead act by which the fed
eral government offered 10 provide homes
for industrious citizens. His land was near a
village. there was considerable merchant
able timber on it; the soil was fertile and
the climate favorable to agriculture; the
territory had been opened to settlement but
a short time and prospects for rapid devel-
opment and an advance in values were ex-
cellent.
This particular homesteader was sober
and industrious. but he had never developed
skill that entitled him 10 be Classed as
other than a common Iaborer. BY clearing
and cultivating a portion Of his land and by
working at odd jobs IN the village he man
aged 10 support his family in comfort for
five years. Then he maze final proof on his
claim and received a Tatent from the gov
eminent giving him title to the land.
FOOlishly Sold His Homestead.
Then came temptation. An offer Of
$4,000 for his farm was rendered and ac-
cepted by the erstwhile hod carrier, who
imme diately developed a severe case Of
swelled head. he imagined he had made
$4,000 through sheer business ability and
that he was a natural born real estate deal
err. 1t never occurred to him that all he had
done was TO enter the homestead and wait
for ar increase of value; that the longer he
waited the greater would be the increase;
that the development OF the country would
necessarily make farm land worth more
money as time passed.
Back Where He Started.
The remainder OF the story is soon told.
The foolish man announced that he pur-
posed 10 engage in the real estate business
and he spent his $4,000 in supporting his
family while waiting for something to turn
up in his new line. IN two years he was
again carrying hod

would be subjected to undue baz-
ards while in camp. This partially
accounts for the fact that less than
500 of the 700 Boy Scouts IN the
South Bend council made the trip.
Admittedly there might have been
cause for apprehension. had Z not
been for the loyalty displayed by the
scouts. and the watchful care that
was bestowed upon them by their
scoutmasters, Chief Executive Joe
Taylor and Capt. Otis Romine who
accompanied them on the trip.
Precautions Taken.
Every possible precauton was
taken to insure the safety and COM
fort Of the scouts every minute from
the time they left home until they
returned.
a most casual observer could
readily see that the men in charge
of the boys keenly felt the respon-
sibility that rested upon their shout
ders. This was particularly notice.
able while on the march. Passing
automobiles were warned 10 slow
down as they passed the long brown
line Of khaki-cIad youths wh!stling
and singing as they trudged along in
heavy marching order. An ambu-
lance brought up at the rear of the
column in readiness TO pick up any
and all scouts who were suffering
fatigue or distress. Every effort was
made TO provide clean, wholesome
food and plenty Of it at proper inter
walls, and with the exception OF one
day due TO the impossible ccndi-
ton Of the roads no boy was al
lowed to so more than five hours
without food.
While in camp. health talks were
given to the scouts in which they
were cautioned about eating iDdis-
cri1linately Of sweets and nick-nacks
outside Of camp. When
the boys went in swimming they
were continually under the watchful
eye of their scoutmasters.
None Desert Camp.
So, II isn't so remarkable after
all that the same 500 boys who left
South Bend with the expectation Of
spending a joyous two weeks in the
open, returned home safely with
that expectation Gratifed.
There is one remarkable phase OF
the trip and that is the fact that

was holding an animated CONVERSE
ton with several of his fellow
scouts.
"A year ago ne became a scout.
At that time he was extremely BASH
full We had a hard time at first
10 get him to mix with the boys.
Unfortunately the boy was subject
TO epilepsy and when the public
school other children teased him
about it. But, as scouts are taught
not TO make fun of others misfor-
tunes, he soon became more sCh-re-
liant and friendly. His epilepsy has
left him and now as you can see. he
is IS lively and normal as any of the
group.

none OF the boys deserted camp and
there was not a serious case Of IL
ness This speaks volumes for the
discipline and loyalty Of the scouts
and reflects no little credit upon
physicians and other local citizens
who gave so unselhshly Of their
time and money In order to make
this outing possible.
There IS little doubt about there
being a two-weeks' outing for the
scouts next year. Whether II viii
