FORMER SCOUTS IN COLLEGE

An interesting development in scout
ing relationship with the universities
has been seen In the work of the Ithaca
IN. " council, Boy Scouts of Amer
lea, in connection with Cornell uni
versity. A meeting of the students at
tending Cornell university who have
been scouts was held. The local coun-
ci. brought before these students
their desire to be Of assistance to
them and serve them in every way
possible while they are at college, and
to bring before them their oppsertu-
nifty to help scouting nationally. Sew
eral of the young men who have been
scouts are helping with the local work.
One Of them who came to the meeting
was Chou-son-K King, who has been, an
assistant scoutmasters In Shanghai.
China.
At Syracuse university similar
movement is on foot in the way of get
ting together students who have been
scouts.
Recently at Oxford university in
England, National Educational Direct
or Lorne w. Barclay investigated the
University Scout club there and found
1t a very helpful activity. This sug-
gestion may be of real service in col
lege towns. not only to the students
but to the boys of that community.

Boy Scouts Of America)
BOY SCOUTS ONE BIG NIGHT

The evening of February Is the
date that every boy scout In tne 'anu
remembers. 1t is the red-letter date
In his calendar. For 1t was ON FED
ruary 8 that the Boy Scouts OF Amer
leu was Incorporated, and 1t is an es-
tablished custom for all scouts to ceie'
brate the event annually.
The custom has assumed the form
Of huge birthday party for the wnoie
organization, starting with or AT ieast
including February 8, and continuing
through Lincoln's birthday, February
u. This Is the eleventh birthday year
OF the scouts. The idea back OF the
celebration is to bring more dennitely
to the attention of each community the
value Of scouting as program Tor
work with boys for the development
of character and training for citizen
ship.
At the hour Of S:15 on February 8
every registered boy scout. no matter
where he may be, is supposed to stand
at salute and commit himseif anew
to the scout oath and law. In most
cases the scouts gather for this cere-
mony In their troop meeting places.
The emphasis of this celebration is
such as will impress the solidarity Of
the movement upon the entire MEM
bership, as well as foster the feeling
of the Individual responsibility of each
scout to the organization as whole.
Heretofore the scouts have stood
at salute when their watches an
nounced 10. which, on account of the
difference in time between East and
West did not make the act simultane-
GUS. This year the effort was made
to have the salute at exactly the same
moment everywhere. corresponding to
S:15 eastern time. the time Of the
clock In the national headquarters.

HOUSE ADOPTS REAPPoRTioN
MENT MEASURE AFTER TuR-
BULENT SESSION.
BARBOUR PLAN KILLED
MANY AMENDMENTS OFFERED
AND KILLED IN QUICK
SUCCESSION.
twetern Newspaper Union New. ser,ies. ,

Washington, Jan. 20.-At the end OF
the most turbulent session Of the pres
ent Congress-, the House adopted the
reapportionment bill with amendment
limiting its membership for ten years
to the present total OF 435.
The fight to prevent increase to 483
was won several hours earlier, how
ever, when the House in committee Of
the whole refused to postpone consid-
erateion of redistricting and then
voted, 1913 to II, to keep the present
maximum. 1t was after long parlia-
mentary wrangling that the bill was
brought before the House itself for a
final showdown. The 435 amendment
finally was agreed to, 267 to 76, and
the measure made ready for the Sem
ate.
After deciding to go ahead with the
measure, Representative Barbour, Re
publican, California, member of the
census committee, made himself heard
above the din and proposed the ABS
maximum amendment, around which
the battle was waged. Other amend
| ments were offered, one to cut the
membership to 3O7 and another to
raise it to 400. Both were voted
down.
| After the real fight had been set
tied, Representative Tinkham, Repub
lican, Massachusetts,, came up with {
proposal to reduce House seats IL
states where negroes are denied thu
right Of franchise, and the battl'
started afresh
Another wrangle developed over al
amendment by Representative Bar
bOur to perfect the bill by providin
that the machinery for redistricting i
the eleven states which will lose seat
after March 4, 1928. The Barbou
plan and many substitutes finall
were defeated.
As the bill stands the states whic
will lose representation are: Mi
souri,, two seats, and Indiana, low
Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Main
Mississippi, Nebraska. Rhode Islan
and Vermont, one each. These twei,
seats will be shifted to eight states
