They Got the Chance to
 Make 270 for Efficiency

Here is good letter just turned in by Eugene Zellers, president of Boy Scout Troop 52 of Woodlawn.
 "Our truck broke down with half the boys that turned out for the hike on last Saturday. But little matter like that did not worry the other half who were waiting for the next trip. Boarding an inbound car, the bunch set out for camp. We ar rived at the end of the Edgewood carline at about 1 o'clock on our way to Camp Andrews, and proceeded by the way of ankle freight to camp.
 Because we were not familiar with the road. we lost our way which delayed us a little. Upon arriving in camp we looked over the finished cabins and from them obtained an idea of what we will have to cope with in building our cabin.
 We then ate our lunches, and after carefully cleaning away all re- fuse from our lunches. set forth in quest of site for our future cabin. We did not, however, officially pick out site, although we discovered a few likely spots on the lower ridge. After we had discussed few de- tails as to the proposed form. site and costs. of our cabin we again boarded ankle fr4ight and arrived in town about o'clock. We earned 270 points in the efficiency contest for hiking. We all had a fine time and unanimously voted to make the best of every chance to go to camp.

Bangp went the gun, and all eyes were turned toward the Term inal station and who should appear but President Harding, chief execu- tive of the United States, coming down Fifth avenue In a wbite Premo- car, which Birmingham had prepared for him. As he came down the ave- nue. of all the fuss you ever heard, that takes the premiuml
 When he went in to the Tutwiler wa all waited outside. getting ready for him to come out. The Presidents car. which was outside at the door of the hotel. was surrounded by the maroon division of the Boy Scouts, who were all anxious to shake hands with their chief executive.
 But when he was there they were all afraid to shake, except one-Les- lie Stollenwerck. Seeing him do this, I gathered up courage, and went up and shook hands, and had a small conversation with him. c
 Later on in the day, the President gave a talk at the Masonic temple, where he dedicated the corner stone. Wednesday night the pageant at Avondale park was the center of at traction and. believe me. it was prot ty. Thursday morning the President left for Columbus, Ga. after having fine time in Birmingham.

Origin of the Boy
 Scouts of America
By wARRIcK SAUNDERS

Early in 1910 the idea of introduc- ing into this country the Boy Scout movement along similar lines of those of the English Boy Scouts. which had been organized in 1907 under the per sonal supervision of Lieut.. Gen. Rob ert s. S. Baden Powellwas first pro- posed by MT. W. D. Boyce of Chicago.
 MT. Boyce's interest was aroused when, upon visit to London, Boy Scout happened to be of actual serv- ice to him. To show the Scout that he appreciated his Kindness. Mfr. Boyce offered the Scout tip. He was A. bit surprised when the Scout. looked him straight in the eye and replied: Sir I am a Scout. and 1t is against the Scout laws to accept tips" MT. Boyce was indeed im- pressed, and upon his return to Amer ica went at once to Washington. D. C., and, with the cooperation of friends, he made preparations to get the Boy Scouts established in America.
 Prior to this time great many men had tpoops of Scouts, because they had become interested in Scout ing through reading Lieutenant Gen erai Baden-Powelrs handbook called Scouting for Boys"
 These men met with great success by following out the programme they had gotten from this handbook. The boys seemed eager to learn all about it.
 Mir Boyce and his friends obtained permission In Washington. D. C.. to organize or to have an organization of the Boy Scouts. called the Boy Scouts of America. In 1910 small office was opened on Fifth avenue Tn New York. Later on Congress passed an act putting the Boy Scouts of America under protection of the con stitution of the United States,
 In 1912 the present headquarters of the Boy Scouts was established. and today the Boy Scouts of America has become one of the best and strongest organizations anywhere for boys. It is growing more and bore popdiar aarh day

pied up. Hill and Lon Durham start ed back to town after a new wheel. In the meantime the bunch en- trusted with the car were soaked by the continuous rain. They were mis- erable, no doubt.
 Finally a new wheel came back with the two boys and 1t was put on. But 1t was or o'clock before they got back. So at about 4 o'clock the bunch piled in Henry's product, and started for the Magic City. Henry did not receive any compliments, l am sure. The tire on the bum wheel had five punctures and when the Ford had gone about half mile to- wards town 1t choked down, and flat ly refused to run. Yes, the bunch walked home. Some got there at 6 D. m., some at 9, according to wheth- CT or not they had car fare. Every one still has all his body together, luckily. but this really deserves the name of hard luck story. Our cabin is delayed again.

ing the winter season there is q greater need and greater opportunity for healthful outdoor exercises which camps afford
 Many of these outings take the form of pilgrimages to points of his torical interest, such as the Roose- welt grave at Oyster Bay. Washing ton camp ground at Valley Forge, the Lincoln homestead, and other points of historical interest to boys. During the Christmas holidays. regularly or ganized camps. using woodsmen cab ins and hunting lodges, will be turned into educational camps, which offer challenge to thousands of vigorous scouts. whose summer camp training has prepared them to enjoy life .n the open, and to meet with confidence emergencies of provision. fuel and shelter.
 A startling announcement has been made that there are moro full days of school vacations between the first of September and the last of June than are offered by the entire two months of summer vacation time Tn which to cultivate the habit of llv- ing with safety. enjoyment, and prof 1t in camps There are many advo- oates of this modern style of vigor- ous campaign for boys, among whom are: Daniel Carter Beard. author of many handicraft books: Dillon Wal lace, author and Labrador explorer; Frederick K. vreeland. engineer. au- thor and Alaskan camper: Marshall McI,ane. president of the Camp Fire Club of America: John Burnham. president of the wild life conserva- tion commission. who has recently re- turned from an extended tour in s. beria. and Maj. W. J. Welch. general manager of the Palisades Interstate Park commission.
 The fact that Sir Ernest Shackel[ ton has selected as members of his Antarctic exploring party two boy scouts from London suggests the op- portunity which winter camp train ing opened to high adventure to boys who have thus qualified.
 It is announced that in all centers where camping Is organized among Boy Scouts the enrolment is equal to or perhaps Is greater than the num- Der which it has been possible to enroll in the regular summer train ing camps.

Boy Scouts Tell Experiences
 With President and His Wife

Capitol park, was one of the chosen boys to go on duty in the Tutwiler hotel was only one. because there xere 30 of us. We all had canes aix feet long to form a line for the Pres ident.
 %The first time I saw the President forgot to hold the line and a few people got by. But the second and the fourth time l made sure I saw him-and held the people back.
 He wore a tall silk hat and so did his bodyguards. He had about ten guards. Two of them were naval guards and two were soldiers. The rest were plalnelothes guards.
 "'Ali of us boys about o'clock got pretty hungry, and we got after our leader. He went after MT. Wester, but failed to find him, so he said we would have to so on our own hook So few of us boys went to the head office. When we got there. we had d hard time to get one of the boys to go In and tell Mr. Andrews we wers hungry But finally we got one. Mir Andrews gave us note to a cafe. After eating, we went back to the hotel and went on duty again about 6:l0 o'clock. We had a 50-pound stick of candy to present to the President as he went into his room; but did not have time. Albert Reeves and I car ried tho candy up the back elevator because the front was broken. When we got up there. the President was in his room. and when he came out we presented 1t to him and his wife, and got to shake hands with them.

Some Snatches of
 a Jubilee Song

 These are few of the ballads that the Boy Scouts sing in their jubilee songs. They were contributed by Eu- gene Zellers.
 They're lots of fun. There was an old deacon Tn our home town Wanted to be baptized. sos to be
 sanctified. But the creek was So deep And the preacher was So weak His soul went to heaven from the
 bottom of the creek Marie had little dog
 It was noble pup: It 'ud stand upon it's hind feet If you'd hold its front feet up. There was an old sailor, He had wooden leg; He didn't have a flivver And. he didn't want to beg. So he got him a spool And an old tin can And he made him flivyer, And the darn thing ran.

Great hilarity for Troop 4s!
 These S2 boys, who have each Fri day night one of the peppiest meet ings of scouts throughout Birming- ham, have won the efficiency cup of fered for the past quarter.
 Such feat as this cannot be per- mitted to go by unsung. and without somebody besides the troop to share the enthusiasm of the victory. And so for tonight Troop .49 boys. with their leader, c. w. Mcdonald, di- recting, have issued invitations for the scouts parents to come out to a big party.
 The occasion is to be historic, in

 Dear Dad and Mother Scout: Will you attend our party Friday night at 7:3o o'clock? (That means to- night.)

"shi Ghostsl'.

Sht GnOStS.
 Every Boy Scout head craned; ev- cry eye peered backward; senses were keyed up to the highest pitch last Friday when hobgoblins and ghouis showed up at the meeting of Troop 52 at Woodlawn.
 No scout lSiew who they were; but two of them were, girl ghosts and one of them a man goblin.
 Gee, how their eyes peered through pillow cases and their ears and noses suggested persons from Hal loween landl And then they made queer mysterious signs that marked the erie band they were from.
 Scouts guessed, but couldn't be sure who the visitors were.
 It was afterwards ascertained that the lady ghosts were two scouts--a little scout and a big scout.
 They were Warrick Saunders and K. D. Saunders. Their sister, Bessie Saunders, was the ghostiest ghost ot the group.
 The woods were full of Halloween maskers, who took the streets Of Woodlawn for their playground, or
