LOOK OUT AROUND CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS FOR THE BROWNIES"
 WHO WILL HELP SANTA CLAUS!

Boy Scouts believe in looking ahead.
 Which means that Christmas Is coming. and that Boy Scouts are planning to play Santa Claus in many beautiful ways.
 For instance, one troop already Is hustling around to spot good green cedar which will hold a Hundred can dles to radiate joy into the hearts of little children who otherwise might find Sata Claus day sad.
 The brown clad chaps are appeal ing to the people in their neighbor- hood for donations of toys and food and garments. In addition to this

Of course you know what shriexs or delight will herald the Christ mas tree sight. And the Boy Scouts will set the joy of knowing that they have done a good turn for Santa Claus just like they do for other people.
 Lots of Boy Scout troops think Christmas would not be complete without such fun as this.
 The Scout Editor Is very much in- terested in such things. If your troop is mapping out holiday work. write letter to The Age Herald Scout Page about it. It is good work, and deserves community support.

THEY HELP SCOUTS Sss

 The boys discussed the question pro and con. even taking up the fact that there are needy people in Birmingham. but the appeal of scouts to scouts won the fight. ana the fact that those scouts had given their all and might be called upon t'o give more. decided them.

Cabin May Be Erected By Scouts to Honor the
 Memory of Roosevelt

Boy Scouts all love and honor the memory of Theodore Roosevelt.
 The late colonel was intensely in terested in the Scuots and during his lifetime was honored by the title or Chief Scout Citizen.
 Boy Scouts throughout the country each year are celebrating his birth day which is October 29. They cele- brated it last year. and also few days ago with many affairs. some Scouts held mass meetings or zen eral patriotic gatherings. Some planted trees, and a group made a pilgrimage 10 oyster Bay, home or Theodore Roosevelt. This is to- be an annual affair.
 The Scouts this year asked the as- sistance and counsel of the Roosevelt Memorial association.
 In many places the anniversary celebration took the form of dinner with speeches. In some places all the troops In a town met to put across a fitting memorial occasion to him. Scouts visited his grave.
 The Roosevelt Memorial associa- tion is seeking at all times letters. incidents and other interesting data connected with the life of Theodore Roosevelt Scouts who are unable to attend the pilgrimage to Roosavelts 8 grave are asked to interest them selves in helping to locate such ma terial by looking up any persons in their community who might possibly have had associations with pr re-
 n. I1N velt. Thts information should be sent to the headquarters of the Roosevelt Memorial association. No. l Madisoa avenue. New York city.
 A Unique Memorial.
 1t has been suggested that as a unique memorial to Theodore Roose- welt the Boy Scouts might build a cabin, which should be the exact re- production of the Elkhorn ranch house on the banks of the little Mis- souri river in the Bad Lands of North Dakota. in which Roosevelt lived the life Of simple ranchman for three adventurous, health building years. The idea would be to have the replica made of wood supplied by thousands of different Scout troops throughout the country and would be erected y Scouts under the personal supervi- sion of 'Bill" Sewall, Roosevelts' friend, guide and fellow ranchman. A particularly interesting feature of this project If carried out as suggest ed will be the escorting of the origi- nal corner stones of 'Elkhorn," the Roosevelt ranch home, by relays of Scouts from North Dakota to Oyster Ray. for use in the memorial cabin. The ranch house will then be set up in the Roosevelt Memorial park to be established by the Roosevelt Memo rial association at Oyster Bay.

We stood there till he cane back, which was about 50 min utes. Whom he came back to the hotel he entered the door on the Twentieth street side. He went to the tea garden to watch the parade. I stood on the curbstone so I could see every move that he made. When the soldiers passed he saluted them. When the parade was over we had to clear an aisle for him to get out.
 T was standing right beside his car when he came in the last time. l was at the elevator right beside the table that the big stick of candy was on which the scouts and children of Birmingham and Aunt Ann's page of The Age Herald presented to him later He walked on Into the ele- vator. He looked back at the candy He did not say anything. because he was not positive 1t was for him. Then a man standing beside me asked me If Edward Feenken and myself would carry the candy up to the Presidents room and present 1t to him. and of course we said yes. We started up the passenger elevator and 1t broke down. Somo candy! It weighed DO pounds. So we went around to the freight elevator and carried it up that way.
 "We waited till the President came out of his room. Then we presented 1t to him and his wife. They were greatly pleased We shook hands with both of them. and then we ran down the stairs to see him as he left the building.
 But the best of all was that night. as President and Mrs. Hard ing were leaving. Mrs. Harding, while passing through tho hotel lobby, saw me standing near. She said: MT. Harding, here is our scout. We must say goodby to him. They both came to me. and believe me, I met them half way, hat In my hand, while the other hand reached forth for the last close grip of the President and first lady of the land.
