SCOUTING IN SCHOOLS.

II has long been a matter Of COM
mon knowledge that scouting can and
does work hand in hand with our pub
lie schools, but 1t is perhaps less well
known In how many of the best pri-
vate schools Of the country, the move
ment is established and operating sue
cessfully to the mutual betterment Of
both the school and scouting.
Schools which foster scouting among
the pupils in their midst are Greenwich
academy, Peddie, Blair, Bordentown
Military institute, Perkiomen, etc. The
president of one of the largest mill
tary academies In the East recently
made the following interesting state
ment:
1--WE always have sixty and some
times more students of the school
who have come to use from boy scout
organizations throughout the country.
We find them to be our best boys,
and we have always tried to encour-
age them to keep their affiliations
with their home organizations. There
always has been a strong pressure on
the part of these boys TO have an or
ganization here. Therefore, with the
opening of the September term, wish
to organize thorough-going unit.
Amongst our teachers there are al
ways several who have been scout
masters, and we wish to avail our
selves Of their training, making them
leaders of the movement here. This
organization would be an entity sep
arate from our regular military or
ganization, and in relations to the
school would be somewhat Nike our
fraternities, Y. NJ. G. AS, etc. We
would give them quarters and stimu-
late them by rewards, etc."

SCOUT WORK AT PUEBLO.

II ever scouts had an opportunity to
test out their power to live up to their
motto "Be prepared" Is was during
the terrible period of the Pueblo flood
last summer, when practically every
scout and scOutleader within the dis
tifct was on duty night and day I'm

As soon as IL was clear that the flood
was threatening to be serious mat
ter Scout Executive Alverson got as
many older scouts and scoutmasters
as he could muster together, and plans
for immediate action were made. In
addition to many phenomenal feats
Of llfe-saving the boys served as mes
sengers, established wireless booths /
canteens and supply stations, even IN
the morgue itself; built emergency
bridges and worked on the temporary
lorries; opened their own headquar-
tiers for many refugees, found homes
for others, did guard duty, distributed
safe drinking water, shoveled mud, de-
livered posters and proclamatiOns for
the board of health. Indeed, there was

In the face of the disaster. q.
On the east side the scouts took
complete charge of the Western Union
stations, dangerous service, as u
foot-bridge was the only means of get
ting across the river for several days.
The kilograms were carried across the
bridge by scouts and the number Of
messages carried was an enormous one,
as can well be imagined. 4
Most Of the rescue work on the part
Of scouts was done In the lowest por-
lions Of the city, where the risk was
greatest and many a spectacular tale
of life-saving is recorded. Scoutmas-
ter Cary met his death In attempting
to save the lives Of two women In a
floating house, his boat being violently
dashed against steel lamp-post. The
boys themselves were In constant dan
ger, but no one Of them ever turned
back from the task In hand, from any

DEMONSTRATION ON TAXES

The march of the farmers of Salt Lake
County to the state Capitol last Thurs
day is a rather significant event. In the
first place it emphasizes the fact that
taxes are too high, and the payers there
of have determined that thew must be re.
duced.
In the second place it brings up again
the inequalities Of the present taxing sys-
tenn, and the urgent necessity for their
reform.
The very best way to reduce taxes is
to reduce them. This constant living be-
yond the income has been practiced by
the state and nation so long that it has
become quite regular thing; but the
time has now arrived when the people
are going to insist that the absurd and
exorbitant expenditures Of public moneys
be stopped. True, in most cases these ex-
penditures have been authorized by the
people themselves by voting amendments
to the constitution, etc, but that is poor
excuse for the extravapance.
Who originates these schemes? Usual
ly the ones whom the people have elected
to public office, and in whom the people
repose confidence. Through adroit .politi-
cal practices it is possible to put over
some very unreasonable propositions.
This is no reflection upon the intelli-
gence of the average voter; but is an in
evitable consequence of our methods of
conducting elections.
Now as to the present method of levy
ing taxes. During the session of the last
legislature, an effort was made, backed
by the farmers of the state, to put into
effect in this state an income tax 1t was
recognized by the authorities on taxa
ton in the state that this was the most
desirable form of taxation, and that it
would very likely eliminate great many
of the ills that obsess us under the pres
ent system.
However, there were those in the leg
islature who felt that this was not true /:
enough of them in fact to kill the bill.
Others felt that the principle was all
right but the time inexpedient.
Others thought that the bill was ill-ad-
vised and had not been given sufficient
attention. This despite the fact thai it
had the approval of the best authorities
on taxation in the state, and that it was
patterned after the model bill planned
and recommended by the national tax as
ISOLATION.
The philosophy of taxing man because
ne improves his property; of burdening
the man who is often the least able to
pay and of placing premium on not
building improvements, is a RIGHT down
poor philosophy, and is not justified by
common sense.
The man who lets his farm 90 to weeds
that really become menace to the coun-
try, does not have to nav as much for
taxes as the good farmer over the fence.
who tolls early and late to make his land
produce, and to grow crops clean from
weeds and other pests. The man who liv-
es in tent may escape the payment of
taxes, while the man who endeavors to
provide comfortable home for his fam
lily is penalized.
Oh, yes any man who is able to build
such home should be willing to paw
more taxes. Nine chances out of ten, he
pays without murmer; but the principle
