BOY SHOUTS &1 e1 Conducted by National Council of the Boy
 Scouts of America-)
WHY | AM A SCOUT

The following statement, written boy scout, appeared in ChicageS. newspaper in connection with cam paign for scout funds:
 q am a boy scout because I believe in the doctrine of the Boy Scouts of America-America first I believe in the service to others which the boy scouts have made the premier issue, and I believe that the future of this government, if not of the world, rests in the hands of the boy scouts of to- day
 But what have the boy scouts done and why should they be helped? Dur ing the war they were ready to an- swer the summons of their country at any time. Being too young to shoulder a gun, they set to work at home to raise money for the Red Cross, to sell Liberty bonds and war savings stamps, only in the last few days of the cam paign, to the few who were not touched before. They were ready to respond to their country in giving first aid carrying messages, or doing any thing they were called upon to do. For this they received only a word Of qualification from their government, but thC were not after praise.
 "The boy scout Is trained to rescue a person In danger, and to apply first aid to his wounds until the doctor comes. The doctrine of service is ever prominent, for the good turn daily is put into practice all over. A scout can be trusted and will never break his word or commit theft A scout is loyal and obedient to the right, kind to dumb animals, of service to man, friendly toward others and cheerful in his actions. He has to pass certain tests which give him a greater knowl- edge and a broader view
 You are now being asked to con tribute some money to the boy scouts in order that they may continue their good work. What Is your return? A safe government for your children, based on the principles of love, un- seldshness and common sense. There need be no fear for the future of America If placed in the hands of the boy scouts"
