The following letter was sent by the
legal committee of the Hartford
Comm council to all the lawyers in
tho city:
1.-THE Hartford Council, Boy Scouts
of America, Inc, has to date been
the recipient of two requests. We
arc a Connecticut corporation without
capital stock and empowered to re-
ceive requests, hold property, etc. 1t
is probable that you, as an attorney,
will be requested at times to suggest
to clients who are making their wills
the name Of a worthy charitable or
philanthopic movement which is in
need of an endowment, and in this
connection we feel that the Boy Scouts
Of America deserves your Endorsement"
The national council of the Boy
Scouts of America from time to time
receives notification of requests in
wills, and it is gratifying that the
movement is receiving this kind of en-
dCwment.

CHAPTER NINE.
Which Tells of a Merry Christmas
Day In the Little Cottage of
the Widow Moran,

Night and Silence are stern test
Of wisdom, For years, the fun loving,
chattersome Blenkinsop had been
their enemy and was not yet at peace
with them But Night and Silence
had other enemies in the village
ancient and inconsolable enemies, 1t
must be said. They were the cocks
of Bingville. Every morning they fell
to and drove Night and Silence out of
the place and who shall say that
they did not save it from being hope
lessIy overwhelmed? Day was their
victory and they knew how to achieve
it. Noise was the thing most needed
So they reused the people and called
up the lights and set the griddles rat
thing. The great, white cock that
roasted near the window in the Widow
Moran's hen-house watched for the
first sign of weakness in the enemy.
When it came, he sent forth a bolt of
sound that tumbled Silence from his
throne and shook the foundations of
the great dome of Night 1t rang over
the housetops and through every
street and alley in the village. That
started the battle. Silence tried in
vain to recover his seat. In moment,
every cock in Bingville was hurting
bombs at him. Immediately, Dark
ness began to grow pale with fright.
Seeing the fate of his ally, he broke
camp and fed westward. Soon the
field was clear and every proud cock
surveyed the victory with a solemn
sense of large accomplishment.
The loud victorious trumpets sound
ing in the garden near the window of
the Shepherd awoke him that Christ

asked drowsily, as he rubbed his eyes
"Sure it's morning" the little clock
answered. "That lazy old sun is late
again. He ought to be up and at
work. He's like a dishonest hired
man"
Hes apt to be slow on Christmas
morning" said the Shepherd.
"Then people blame me and say I'm
foo fast" the little clock went or.
"They don't know what an old shirk
the sun can be. I've been watching
him for years and have never gone
to sleep at my post

clock went on: Hello! The old

A SCOUT is A FRIEND.

Frederick Hall of Troop 10, Bridge
port, Conn., proved himself a true
scout last winter by coming to the
aid of a young girl who was battling
against great odds in trying to feed,
clothe and keep a roof over the heads
of herself and her four young broth
ers and sisters. Scout Hall, who sells
newspapers, read, as did many other
citizens of Bridgeport, the story in
the morning paper Of Jane Grams,
difficulties but he didn't stop
with reading and saying Dear
me, what PITY" He got busy
in a practical way. He cut the
story from the newspaper, pasted
it on a cardboard box, cut slot in the
box and started ont, on a house-to-
house campaign, showing the story
wherever he went.
All day he kept at his self-appoint-
ed task and at night brought S11.7O
in pennies, nickels and dimes, and
few larger denominations into the
newspaper office, announcing that it
was for Jane Cram and he hoped she
and her family wouldn't suffer any
more. Others took up the work where
the valiant scout led the way, and the
little family was relieved of it's worst
plight.

UNCONSCIOUS ADVERTISING

In New Brunswick, N. j., boy
car, and obviously stranger, who
seemed in doubt as to his proper d.
rection. Accordingly without hesita-
ton he jumped on the running board
and rode along for short distance, di-
recting the driver to his destination.
The service being duly rendered the
boy hoped off the board and refused
the strangers proffered tip, explain
ing that he was a boy scout, and
couldn't take pay for simple good
turn. Nothing new in this for a
scout. Nearly every scout in the
country has been in similar position,
behaved just as this boy did, and kept
still about it afterward, just as this
boy did. But it is fine scouting, all
the same, and just the kind OF III
cdent that makes scouting count all
along the line. This is what the
man who benefited by this one scouts
little act of courtesy, had to say about
1t afterward when he told the story:
San organization that influences a
boy to stick to his principles and re-
fuse the lure of gold is certainly
strong one which deserves all public
support"
SO much for the effect Of one small
good turn upon public opinion, and the
best of it was the scout who did it
wasn't thinking about influencing pub
lie opinion. He was just doing his
everyday duty as a good scout and
making no fuss about it at all, in good
scout fashion.

I've got no preaching ito do. I'm just

A troop of scouts in YoungwOOd,
Pa, surrendered its headquarters for
four months last winter to a family
with seven children who could not
find a place to live.
Troop No. SIC, Chicago, says that its
special effort has been to keep streets
free from glass and nails, and to pre-
vent destruction of city property, such
as lamp globes and street signs.

Just then it struck seven.
"There, guess that's about the end

"Of what?'' the Shepherd asked
"Of the nineteen hundred and eigh-

nearly worn out. Some young clock
will have to take my job before long"
These reflections of the little clock
we're suddenly interrupted. The Shep-
herds mother entered with a merry
greeting and turned on the lights.
There were many bundles lying about.
She came an0 kissed her son and began
TO build fire in the little stove.
