New York. That the old order
may be the better after all was made
evident the other evening to the
crowd that stood in the rain at forty
second street and Eighth avenue wait
ing for chance to cross. Traffic was
streaming northward, and more than
one halted pedestrian was spashed as
taxlcabs and privately owned auto
mobiles shot past through the water.
In all the line that passed before the
policeman blew his whistle there were
two horse drawn cabs and one han
som. The drivers of all of these see
ing the pool ahead of them refined in
their horses, which had been pulling
the vehicles along smartly to keep
pace with the autos, and walked them
through the pool. Grateful glances
from the delayed crowd were their re-
ward. There always was something
fine about horses and all who had
anything to do with them.

his bullying bag down on the floor in

SCOUTS SOW GOOD HABITS

Scouts everywhere are interested in
gardening and forestry. In Il recent
issue of Boys Life the chief scout
executive reminds the boys of the
movement that there is another kind
of planting going on all the time,
whether they are conscious of the
process or not, Mr.. West says:
boy time is essentially planting
time. The habits you are forming now
are the ones you will reap the harvest
of when you get to manhood. And
that is where scouting comes in as a
sort of expert gardener to show you
what to plant, and how and why to
plant it.
lone of the accusations that is
sometimes made, with some justice,
against the American people, as a
hole, is our lack of thoroughness, our
tendency to be Jacks of many trades
expert at none. This charge should
never be allowed to fit or hit a scout.
Thoroughness and the doing of a given
task. pom honor. to the best of our
ability should be. and ! am glad to
say usually is, characteristic of boys
who are scouts. Even if it is small
thing in itself. like learning to tie
a certain kind of knot keep at it until
you have the trick completely mas
tered, and can tie the knot any time,
any place. just right, as speedily and
deity as possible.
"Take the matter of first aid, when
you are learning TO make bandages
and tourniquets, studying and prac-
ticing what to do in case of a certain
accident or how to prevent that acct
dent from happening, put your whole
mind and skill into it. Learn to do
it, not any old way but just right,
SO that if the time comes when you
are called upon, in the flash of an
instant TO put that knowledge to prac-
teal use, you will not be found want
ing.
BE prepared Sow habits of en-
ergy, patience. perseverance. Train
your mind and body to work together
in splendid alliance. Live clean lives,
think clean thoughts, read great books,
follow true heroes like Abraham Lin
coin and Theodore Roosevelt, Plant
for tomorrow and manhood"

MESSAGE FROM SPANISH CHIEF.

In connection with the new interna-
tional scout magazine representing all
the scouts of the world, the chief scout
of Spain makes this statement:
ITO create an international journal
which shall be the expression of the
common ideals that flourish beneath
the boy scouts flag throughout the
world; and with that journal to CARRY
. to the farthest corners of the earth
the common desire for physical and
moral redemption for which men of
goodwill in all climes are striving, will
be to endow with new strength, with
the winged and powerful strength of
written thought, this gigantic crusade
of universal brotherhood which already
binds with strong links the youth of
all countries, without distinction of
race or frontier.
1.-THE boy scouts of Spain, who are
working for their country and for their
well-being, follow the inspiration of
Baden-PowelTs immortal doctrine,
cannot forget that they are part of
that enterprise, or that in all nations
they have brothers with the same de-
sires and ideals; and for this reason
they rally with enthusiasm to the
work of their common publication,
which will find in us fervent propa-
gandists if it serves, as we hope, to
strengthen and encourage the noble
scout aims

soUTH BANK OF RED RIVER The
STATE LINE, SUPREME
COURT DECIDES.
OLD DECISION REAFFIRNED
Treaty of 1919 With Spain is Taken as
Basis For Fixing 1000 Miles of
Rorder-Exact Location Is
Postponed.

Washington.-Okl has won in
the Supreme Court the first big point
In her suit with Texas for iur sdiction
over valuable Red river oil Aslds.
Imam opinion which was uns aimous,
except that Associate Justice Clarke
took no part, the court held that the
south bank of the Red river, must he
taken as the true boundary between
Texas and Oklahoma from the south
eastern corner of the latter state to
the point where the river crosses the
Tooth meridian of longitude. More
than 1000 miles of boundary are fixed
permanently by the decision
The court based it's findings spe-
officially oh the terms of the treaty
signed in 1919 between the United
States and Spain, which 'consum-
mated the Louisiana purchase" That
document, it held, affirming its own
decision in the case of United States
Texas, set the south bank Of the river
as the true boundary
Determination of the exact location
of the south bank" was postponed
until the entering of the formal decree
which will be promulgated within the
next 80 days. Until this decree is
made public, those interested will be
little better off than before the recent
decision, because the river is extreme
ly wide and shallow along practically
its entire length.
"The contention that the evidence
and arguments in the Green county
case Omitted States VS.. TeXas) raised
no controversy as to whether the
boundary followed the mid-channel or
the south bank is not well founded, %
Associate Justice Pittney, who read
the courts decision, said. 1.-THE treaty
of 1919 and mass of historical data
bearing upon its proper Interpretation
were before the court. From excerpts
between the secretary of state, John
Quincy Adams, and the Spanish min
lister, 1t appeared that the question
whether the boundary should follow
the middle Of the Sabine and Red
rivers or the westerly bank of the
former and the southerly bank of the

The opinion then recited that
among Adams memoirs was found the
statement that the objection of Spain
to making the banks, instead of the
center of the stream. the boundary
was finally abandoned"
