Sou s
Conducted by National Council of the
Boy Scouts of American
SCOUT FIRE FIGHTERS

Twenty six Cashmere (Wash) boy
scouts, with their leaders, started in a
big truck for an overnight camp, an
all day "trip which landed them in the
beautiful SQuakane creek valley at
nightfall. They erected their shell
ter tents, had big feed" and
jolly campfire pow-wow. Short
ly after taps scout reported
fire visible down the canyon.
In less than 30 seconds the troop was
in formation ready for action. The
Red Cross patrol under Senior Patrol
Leader Gail Phillips was sent down
the canyon with Instructions to leave
away, another two at another point,
etc, SO that as soon as the fire was
located q message could be relayed
back to camp. Meanwhile two other
patrols were equipped for fire fighting,
and special orders given.
A few minutes later two boys of the
first patrol brought back word that
1t was the mill which was on fire, and
that they had left the other six scouts
in the thick of 1t. One of the assist
ant scoutmasters and few scouts
were left to guard the camp, as it was
surrounded by valuable timber which
might catch fire.
Scuutmaster Chichester and Assist
ant Braggons arrived at the scene Of
the disaster in short time with an
eager squad Of workers. The few
men in charge at the mill had about
given up hope Of saving anything from
the flames, but the boys formed a
bucket brigade from nearby creek
to the lumber piles, and by means of
wet sacks put out new fires. which
kept starting, while another crew
wrecked the high tramway which was
acting as a fuse and leading the fire
from pile to pile of lumber. BY
a. m. the fire was under control. The
mill and large amount of lumber
had been destroyed, but thanks to the
efforts of the scouts, two buildings,
some furniture, two or three heavy
wagons, and over 100000 feet of lum
Der, some $4,000 worth In all, We're
saved. A weary but triumphant lot
of boys hiked back to camp, leaving
two of their number to patrol the fires
until daylight. They did not climb the
mountain the next day, as had been
planned, but nobody was disappointed
as the troop had had enough thrills
and hard work for one outing.
Tie work of the scouts received
much well deserved praise, and the
president of the lumber company
whose property they had saved pre-
sented the troop with $50 check IN
appreciation of the remarkable good
turn, gift that was accepted with
the understanding that the money
would be used to purchase needed
equipment.

CHARITY

HOR some five or six years we have
II had a riot of charity appeals.
There have been drives for this and
other kinds of days.
Rightly the people have responded
with promptness and generosity to all
the appeals, touching the bottoms of
their pockets occasionally when the
drives came very close together and
always giving something, however lit
tie they were interested In the cause.
The war was responsible for the
most of the appeals. But the war is,
technically, at least, over and 1t would
seem as if there ought to be let-up
and good breathing spell SO that
pocketbooks may recover and charities
get down to a normal basis.
/ Charity ought to mean something to
the giver as well as to the receiver.
Real charity means giving real help.
Money Is frequently long way from
being the best thing that you can give
to poor and suffering individual.
If you saw a man in pit and all
his efforts to get out were unsuccess-
full, you would scarcely be doing him
any very great service by flinging
dollar down into the pit with him.
Nor would it be the best thing to
get down in the pit yourself.
The best thing to do Is provide the
man way out of his predcament-a
way to better himself-a way to get
up on a level with his fellow man.
1t was not the amount of money that
the Good Samaritan spent that made
his name synonym for generous char
ity. 1t was the fact that when he saw
the man who had been down to Jericho
lying by the roadside ''he went to him
and bound up his wounds and set him
on his own beast and brought him to
an inn and took care of him."
There are too many of us who are
generous with our dollars and misers
with our smiles. We spend a dollar
where hearty good cheer, a message
of encouragement, little thoughtful
ness would do good deal more to

TN what travail is our Springtime
born -
Mid leaden skies and garmenture
of gloom.
Wild waves of cloud the drifting
stars consume. r.
And shipless seas of heaven greet the
The forest trees stand sad and tenn
pest-torn,
Memorials of Summers ended

For unto March, the sister most for

No roses come her pathway to
Hume.
Yet it's the month the Winter north
ward flies
With one last trumpeting of savage
might.
Now stirs the earth of green that I'M
derlies
This other earth enwrapped In garb
of white.
And while poor March, grown weary,
droops and dies
The little Springtime opens wide Its
eyes.

CHILDREN OF THE SPRING.

MyHAT means the Spring to your
w The tree, the bloom, the grass
Wide fields to wander through;
A primrose path to pass;
Bright sun, and skies Of blue;
The songs of singing streams;
The ripping riverside
Awakening from dreams;
Fair-browed and azure-eyed-
Oh. thus the Springtime seems.
Yet not for such as you
She comes with song and voice.
IT'S not for such as you
She makes the heart rejoice,
She comes with skies Of blue.
Springs children are the ILL
IT'S these she comes to cheer;
Upon the window-sill,
Within the chamber drear,
She sits her song to trill.
On narrow cots they lie
Within the quiet room,
Their sky square of sky
Cut from the inner gloom,
From dreary walls and high,
Spring means so much to these,
The prisoners abed!--
The perfume Of the breeze.
The birdsong overhead.
The echoed melodies.
The window open wide
Behold, the Spring Is herei
No more the countryside
Is dim and dark and drear;
Now stronger runs the tide.
The pale and patient wife.
Her babe upon her breast,
Forgets the night, the knife,
And sleeps the sleep of rest.
Awakening to life.
The old, the very old,
Behold In budding Spring
Another year unfold
And life. tinsel thing,
Is turned again to gold.
And cen the empty cot.
Whose Spring has come too late,
The one who now Is not,
The one who could not wait,
The Spring has not forgot.
For, seel the Sprlngtime stands
Our dropping eyes to raise
To fair and shining strands;
The Sprlngtime comes and laws

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
THE JOB AND THE MAN
By r. A. WALKER,

, help those TO whom we intend TO ex-
tend aid
Charity which lessons the self
respect of the one helped is badly
bestowed.
A loaf OF bread given in such way
mat the receiver thinks less of him
seli than he did before he received II
Is an injury rather than a help.
Better. he had hungered little
longer until his bread could have been
obtained without cost to his manhood.
There Is a good deal of misdirected
charity in this world. We give to suf-
'erers far away and close our eyes
10 those near at hand
We give for showroom the pocket
rSther than from the heart.
We not infrequently make conditions
worse instead of better by giving with
out understanding.
DO not think this is an argument
against charity. 1t Is not 1t is an
argument for wise charity.
Give as much as you can. Give as
often as you can.
The mite was a noble gift for the
widow, but unless you are widow do
not take that as the basis for your
contribution.
But give wisely. See that Il whole
some, useful and helpful application
is made of your donations and the
world will be better and you will be
better for having helped your fellow
man.
But above all be generous of your
hihd words, OF your smiles, and of
your encouragement. 1t is impossible
10 misapply them. You can be sure
they are certain to help and you can
De equally certain that they will in no
instance and under no circumstances
work a harm.

ROAD AND FARM VALUES

In determining the profits Of any
industry, distance from market IL Q
vital factor, and this factor IL reck-
oned, not by miles merely, but by
hours and effort expended on the
road.
A road from farm to city that en-
abies q farmer both to increase hfs
load and cut down his running time,
adds value not only to every pound
Of his produce, but to every ere of
his land. More than this, 1t increases
the value Of every bit of real estate
in the city, for 1t enriches and widens
its tributary territory.
A study of road conditions In .
certain section of Mississippi showed
that on the old dirt roads the aver
age team Of horses could haul from
1900 to 1000 pounds Of freight eight
miles and return with the empty
wagon in one day. The cost Of haul
per ton mile was 81 cents.
On the new roads, which we're
about equally divided between watef-
bound macadam and sand-and-clay-
topped earth, the load ranged from
$500 to $500 weight and the cost per
mile was reduced to 20 cents. Paved
roads as good as u Base Line road
would cut that figure In two, or near
ly 80.
On ordinary Oregon dirt roads q
team hauling a ton FIVE miles con
sumes the better part Of a day On the
round trip. Two such trips would
overwork the horses, and in wet
weather the road might be wholly
impossible.
On hard surface roads a light mo-
tor truck would haul three and pos
sibly four such loads daily. With
out question a farm ten miles from
market on a paved road is actually
nearer than one on a dirt road FIVE
miles away.
Good roads o every acre of
| farm land nearer to market, are
to school, nearer to church, earer
to the theatres. nearer to neighbors.
In the Mississippi district mentioned,
with dirt roads, the school attend
ence was 70 peEncsnt. On the Inn
proved roads It moved TIP
ly to 81 per cent. and the quality of
schools was improved at the same
time and obviously for the same req
son.-Portland Telegram.
