BOY
SCOUTS
&
Conducted by National Council OF the
Boy Scouts of America.)
SCOUTING AND CITIZENSHIP

In general human beings may be
roughly classified into two divisions,
the kind who throw banana peels n
waste paper on the sidewalk and the
kind who not Only refrain from such
acts of selfish irresponsibility them
selves, but pick up banana peels and
waste paper from the sidewalk n
deposit them in the proper receptacle.
1t is the difference between the splr-
it's of good citizenship and bad citi-
zenship.
1t is the glory of the scout move
ment that it is intoxicating all over the
country the spirit Of responsible citi-
zenship III its growing boys. Out in
Ogden City, last winter, a boy scout
quietly posted himself at a dangerous
ly slippery point on the street where
a great many persons had been failing
to the huge amusement of q guffawlng
crowd of by-standers, warned people
of the danger, and helped women
across. Nobody told him to do 1t. he
just did it because it was somebody's
job ard he made it his, as a respon-
sible citizen.
Another significant little story IS
told of a group of scouts who a
for weeks been taking care of a IAN
gerous street crossing near a school
building, guiding smaller children
across in safety, day in and day out.
Nobody knew they were doing it, no.
body asked them to do it. They were
not looking for praise from anyone for
doing it. 1t was a job to be done by
somebody and they were glad to take
1t on because they were scouts and
therefore responsible citizens.-Scout-

ALL FRUIT GROWERS FRIENDS
Birds That Should Be Protected Are
Listed by the American For
estry Association.

The American Forestry association
has published the fact that a cliff
swallow will eat 1000 flies, mosqui-
toes, wheat midgets, or beetles in a
day The crops of four chickadees
showed 1.02S eggs of the cankerwOrm.
Take notice, Mr.. Fruit Grower. A
quail killed in a Texas cotton field
had eaten 127 boil weevils, and a prai-
RE chicken had over 300 of them in
its crop. The bob white has been
known to eat 1875 different kinds of
insects. 1t has been estimated that
this bird will consume an average of
10000 insects and 100000 weed seeds
in a year. House martins. swallows,
and swiftS eat rose beetles. May bee
ties, cucumber beetles and house flies.
The quail eats Texas fever-carrying

TRACING WHlMS OF FASHION
Some Change for Which Reason
May Be Adduced.

In the Fifteenth century the waist
line was discovered and the pointed
idea carried to extreme, says the New
York Herald. The women wore tall
pointed hats, pointed shoes, and points
were introduced in every possible way.
At this time the church was strongly
in the ascendant and the models of
the Madonna served as the inspiration
for their costumes. AS these little
models were carved from ivory tusks,
the women followed the sacred model,
and the curve of the tusk was also
copied in their carriage, giving a sim
liar tilt to the figure, recently called
the debutante SLOUGH.
The Sixteenth century brought in
corsets, the heightened waistline and
the introduction of the full skirt. 1t
was in this period that Catherine de
Medici brought in collars, and lace was
used in women's costumes for the first
time. In the Seventeenth century,
known as the romantic period, the
styles became very frivolous.

far more trade schools for young men

coming almost as usual for the girls
Of the family to earn their living as

are satisfied with staying at home and
going into society. They want to work
at something; they want their indie
pendence. And they deserve training
and proper opportunity.
Many women in the smaller towns
are eager for training that will fit
them to earn a living, and they can
not get 1t. This is all wrong, and 1t
is Sup to us to get our schools. One
girl know wanted a course in photOg-

leaning. She had to travel hundreds

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
By F. A. WALKER


has only two and half times as many
marriages as divorces.
"
In six counties in four states the
record shows 80 per cent more di-
vOrceS than marriages.
The innocent parties to these dis
agreements are the children and in
the past 20 years more than 100000
sons and daughters of disagreeing
parents have been involved in the
court proceedings which followed the
desire for separation.
In many states it has come to be
easier to get divorced than it is to get
married. Scarcely two states have di-
vorce laws alike. and what is illegal
in one state becomes perfectly all
right so far as the statutes go the
minute the imaginary line between it
and another commonwealth is crossed.
Perhaps the custom of wedding
rings for men will have a good effect
on the bad record recited above.
Perhaps, on the other hand, the men
will wear their badges of matrimony
in their vest pockets whenever they
think a more conspicuous display will
interfere with an evening a little gay
er than they would have at home.
But whatever means is necessary for
the correction of present conditions
should be determined and put into
force.
Marriage should be made less of a
farce and divorce less of a joke than
present records show both to be.
The marriage relation is an impOr-
tant part of our civilization. 1t mer-
its more attention and more perfec-
ton than it is at present receiving.

What is more, she is conducting a

that it would pay her town to run a
vocational school for girls that would
teach photography as well as many
other vocatiOns. And she is working
for such a school.
1t is a pity to force so many girls
into the weary road of stenOgraphy
simply because it is so often impos-
