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.
"The boy scouts of Spain, who are
working for their country and for their
well-being, follow the inspiration OF
Baden -Powell's immortal doctrine.
cannot forget that they are part of
that enterprise. or that in ALI 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 IL 1t serves, as we hope, to
strengthen and encourage the noble
scout aims"

ple and government of what is an i'm
mensely powerful factor. That is, tho
scientific development which makes
for the progress of civilization and
upon which, to vast extent, the
safety Of the country Is dependent.
without such general understanding,
IL will be difficult or impossible to
awaken our fellow countrymen to the
menace of our unpreparedness In such
matters. so as TO secure that WIDE
spread education and individual pro-
ficiency in science which Is our safe
guard. With 1t, there will be no diff
ficulty, whatsoever, In getting con-
gress to enact such legislation as will
foster and stimulate not only our syn
thetic dye and nitrogen industries, but
also our chemical warfare and air
services. Such action will have an
immediate and far-reaching beneficial
effect upon the entire course Of our
development In science, at time when
the world is looking to us for
lead In such matters"

SCOUTS sow GOOD HABITS

Scouts everywhere are interested In
gardening and forestry. In 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 a.e 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 70 manhood. And
that is where scouting comes III as a
sort Of expert Gardener TO show you
what to plant, and how and why to
plant 1t.
Zone Of the accusations that Is
sometimes made. with some justice,
against the American people. as a
whole, is our lack Of thoroughnesss our
tendency to be jacks Of many trades
expert at none This charge should
never be allowed to fit or hit scout.
Thoroughness and the doing of given
task, 'pon honor, to the best OF our
ability should be, and l am glad TO
say usually is, characteristic OF boys
who are scouts. Even If 1t Is small
thing in itself. like learning to tie
a certain kind of knot. keep at 1t until
you have the trick completely mas
tered, and can tie the knot any time.

dent from happening, put your whole

1t, not amy old way but just right.
so that If the time comes when you
are called upon. in the flash Of an

'TNSURRECTIONARY"
ELEMENT BLAMED.

Mr.. MartindaIe said he was one Of
those who first suggested a primary law.
but that he is now opposed to 1t. He
declared that primary proposals come
from the insurrectionary elements Of po-
litical parties. He pointed out that by
the repeal of the primary women will
not be deprived of any more than the
men.
Mr.. Martindale declared that the pri-
mary was responsible for an ex-convict
ocratic ticket in Marion County, and
that It is responsible for, our Rolin
Bunches and our Lew Shanks."
Il would rather elect an ex-convict
than a man who is about to become a
convict" Mr.. Toner declared in reply.
He asserted that the Beardsley bill pro
poses to repeal the primary law, de
spite all the camoufiage that may be put
around it" He pointed out that under
the proposed optional system one party
In a county might conduct a primary,
while party voters had right to go
into the primary and ruin the ticket of
the party holding the primary. He also
pointed out that a primary called for the
purpose of electing delegates would cost
the same as a primary for the purpose Of
nominating candidates. He said 1t would
be out OF the question to eliminate all
JUICES and sherifs, as such action would
leave primaries wide open to manipula-
ton.
He repeated his statements that the
proposal to repeal the primary is in direct
opposition to the intent of the last Re
publican State platform.
