THE FIGHTING SPIRIT.

A statement by an Eagle scout:
Many person has proved himself
an utter failure in life because he
lacked the pep and the push that COM
pei success.
Why? Simply because he hadn't
been brought up TO put his shoulder
to the wheel. He lacked that great
virtue so vitality important, so neces-
sary for successful career-llghting
spirit!
One of the objects Of the boy scout
organization is to teach self-reliance
and persistency; TO stick to propo-
sition till ii is accomplished to use
Encouragement as an impetus toward
that accomplishment. What finer les
son could there be? The boy scout Is
taught to carry his own load without
a murmur without pulling long
face" or falling by the wayside and TO
carry 1t with smile. Each and ev-
cry scout is taught to meet the turn
ing of fate without finch.
Though the boy scouts motto Is BE
prepared" We might supplement 1t
with still another: Don't give up
TIL the whistle blows"
Take the average scout; what Is
failure to him? He is taught to smile
at defeat. He hits in all the harder,
more determined than before to attain
his goal. He takes pride In this spirit
and climbs the hill under his own
power. not under the powers and do
lngs Of others. He puts full faith In
himself and builds his castle on the
foundation of perslstency. He stands
for the square deal, for all that Is
Just in life, and in standing for these
principles he stands for what his en-
tire organization represents.

BOY SCOUT FRIEND TO TREES.

Every boy scout Is pledged con-
servatlonist. He will not only run
the risk of being responsible for for
est lire himself, but he will preach the
hows and why's Of forest fire proven
ton wherever he goes. He will not
willfully hack or injure trees In any
way. and he win interest himself In
fighting tree enemies Of all sorts like
the pine blister and the tent caterpii-
lar. The trees are his friends and he
is ready to do them a good turn when
ever opportunity offers.

COOL CLOTHING

The lighter the fabric
the more likely is it to
crease, cling, pucker, or
twist out of shape.
That is another way Of
saying that the lighter the
fabric the greater the
need for good tailoring.
All of this is so obvious
that it should be unneces-
sary to print it; but just
notice the kind of tropical
suits some men wear and
the reason for printing it
will be equally obvious.
The good tailoring in
every Wanamaker suit
has a two-fold advantage
in tropical suits.
Good tailoring is one
vital feature in which
Wanamaker tropical suits
excel. The other is in the
fabrics. There are no
better tropical fabrics
made than the kind used
in Wanamaker mems
tropical suits.
1t all comes to this
the goods are right, the
tailoring is right, the
fashion is right and the
suit cannot help being
right.
