 BOY SCOUTS
 The boy scouts are eagerly looking forward to their summer camp which is to be held as soon as possible after the closing of school. Plans are now being formulated whereby the boys can spend at least week in ecamp under strict Scout rules, which rules consist mainly in that each boy shall have a good time. About thirty boys will beSin the camp and equipment and supplies are now being gathered. The camp will be in charge of a scout master and an experienced army cook is to be secured to take charge of the commissary. Further details will be announced later.
 Through the curtesy of MT. Crow foot the Scouts have secured permis- sion to use the No. 6 tank for bathing purposes this summer. This will be an excellent opportunity for those hoys who are studying for the higher ratings, as it is necessary to be able to swim a certain distance and be able to handle himself in the water. In order to take advantage of this offer the Scouts must be accompanied by Legion member. Any Legion man wlio would like to take the Scouts up to the tank should notify Scout Master Chrisman,

DOINGS AT SHEET METAL
WORKERS No. 522

The sheet metal workers of Local
No. 522 met in regular session; min
utes of previous meeting were read
and approved, and all outstanding
bills were ordered paid. There were
several very interesting communica-
tions read, which were acted on
favorably.
At roll call it was the old home
guard, with the exception of a couple
of members who we were exceedingly
we'll pleased to see present.
Nomination of officers for the next
year being in order, the following
Brothers were nominated:
President-W. V. Workman.
Vice President-Dan Ryan.
Conductor-Elmer Lynch.
Fin. Sec'y-Leo r. Mallonee.
Rec Sec'y-Otto Baughman.
Warden-Walter Humel.
Now, brothers, you see this is the
same old lineup, and we want all of
you to be out on election night, Dec.
goth. It's to your interest, brothers,
who do not attend meetings, just as
much as it is to those of US who do
attend, to see that the proper kind Of
officers are elected; and after they
are elected to stand by them and give
them your moral support. The only
way you can do this is to attend the
meetings regularly, and if there is
any trouble or misunderstanding
bring it to the lodge room, we will
listen and advise you; and if neces-
sary we will fight for you (not with
you). And right at the present crisis
we most stand shoulder to shoulder
and let the world know that Organ
lied Labor is no myth, but a living
object; and at the present time while
the damnable open shop is being agi-
tated, organized labor should just get
that much closer together and put
forth a solid front to withstand its at
tacks. But you will never do it as
long as so per cent of the members
never attend a meeting and 25 per
cent of the remaining SO only attend
when they have a grievance or want
favor of some kind. Now, Brothers,
| am not taking to task 522 alone, but,
all other Locals that have this same
trouble. How do you suppose the
president feels to look around and
find he still lacks one man to make
quorum? Say the Local has 35 men,
bers seven of them would only be one
fifth, and | have seen it this way.
Then you talk about losing out. Why
should you not lose? How long
would any other business last if con-
Quoted that way? If your employers
conducted their business that way it
would only take one little man with
brains to come along and gobble
everything the company possessed.
Just think your Local Union is the
banking house through which you do
business, your Labor is the capital
you have involved, and you, as stock
holders, are standing by ready to let
your bank fail for the want of stock
holders enough to hold a meeting. Is
this business? Not as l see it. But
Brothers, we are going to hold this
election Tuesday, Dec. 20, 1921, and
we are going to EAT, DRINK and be
merry and say Union Labor shall
never die.
Yours to count on,
C. F. ALFORDSON.

East Moline had ! burglary and
hold up Sunday sight The burg
lary was ct he Clyde C. Anderson
drug store, 1917 Seventh street.,
ard the hold-up ct ths First etrsst
filling station.
The burglary Of the drug store
occurred about 2:s0. Sunday morn
ing. A crow bar Was used to Dry
open the 'front.' door and the place
Vas looted Of . quantity Of NOR
phine, cocaine, hefoin, besides sew
eral safety rnsors and some base
ball goods. The exact amount Of
each commodity il not known, but
II is expected the loss will amount
to over 500. The crow bar was
left in the doorway Of the store. In
view Of the dope taken, the po-
lice are Of the opinion that the
burglary was the work Of drug ad-
diets.
As he was closing his establish
ment for the night, A. H. Abraham
son, manager Of the First street
filling station, was confronted by
three youths, two wearing brown
and one Q blue suit, with caps
pulled down over their faces, who
Hourished revolvers and COM
manded both he and Mrs. Abraham
son, who was In the station at the
time, to put up their hands. They
obeyed the command and the ban
dts rifled the cash drawer of $40
and then relieved Mr.. Abrahamson
OF $40 which he had in his pockets.
After the money had been OBJ
tanned, the three men ran across the
street, through the Grinell school
yard and Immediately afterwards
Mr.. Abrahamson declares he heard
an automobile drive away at ter
rifle speed. He believes the bandits
had an automobile awaiting them on
Fifth or Fourth avenue.
This makes the fourth time the
filling station has been robbed since
the first Of the year. The first at
tempt was frustrated by the burg.
lars being frightened away. The
next two attempts neted the rob.
bers about SIS.

RESIDENCE ENTERED.

The Ernest Jericho residence,
1S4S Forty-eighth street, Moline,
was ransacked by burglars Satur-
day. The loot obtained was small,
only q few inexpensive rings and
other small trinkets being taken.
Members OF the family have had
several experiences with bur. liars
and left no cash or valuable jewelry
in the house. About $50 Mrs. Jer-
tcho came home and 1t Is believed
that she frightened the burglars
away. The house was entered
through a cellar door, which was
forced open.
