LEAVES FOR WORK IN FRANCE

Lorne w. Barclay, director Of the
national council, department of Edu-
cation, Boy Scouts of America, has
again been loaned for the summer to
fine American committee for devastated
France of which Miss Anne Morgan
Is chairman. Mr.. Barclay sailed for
France in May and will there direct
FIVE scout camps. This work is prov
ing a notable contribution to the up
building of warstricken France. AS
Mr.. Barclay said in his recent report:
sThese boys lived in ruined homes;
thev have been out of school for five
wears; there is no place for them to
find companlOnship in their villages
unless they go to the wine shops.
They have suffered so much that they
are undeveloped physically and mental
", vet they crave good Wholesome edu-
cation and recreation. They only ask
the chance to grow into manhood with
all the best scout ideals of courage,
self-denial, honesty and endurance"
Many boy scout troops in the Uni
ted States have contributed $25 each,
which means that each troop will have
as its guest at one Of the camps, a
French boy, who will not only gain
immeasurably himself by the expert
ence, but who will also go home car
rying the message Of scouting with
him to reach other boys and the COM
munity.

The plan is to have every scout troop

Condensation By
Miss Carolyn Wells

Twice I'm his later years did William
Bsakepeace Thaekeray seek temporarily
another career than that of authorship.
Shortly before writing "The Virgin
ians" he tried unsuecessfuily to cap
ture a seat in parliament. Politics had
always attracted him, although his
temperament was wholly u~nsuited to
popular demands.
He was a radical, s~ympathIzing with
Richard Golden In his anti-cOrn law
light. 81 would K 10 see all men
equal" he wrote In 1910, "and this
bioated aristocracy blasted 20 the wings
of all winds" He yyas nevertheless
absolutely opposed to nny attempt on
the part of the PEOPLE to win their
rights by force. His attitude IL in
ieresting Ia the light OF today's radl-
cnlism, as is also his firm advocacy of
Ireland's right TO have home rule.
After finishing 9TH yirgInians,-
Thackeray became the first editor of
the Cornhil Magazine. His own wide
popularity practically insured the
initial success of the venture. OF the
arst number 10000 copies were sold.
The most distinguished writers of the
day were attracted ms contributors
through the editors prestige, and the
CorDhin furnished magazine readers
with better fiction and articles than
can be found today In any successful
English periodical.
Although T~hackeray wa "a good
editor In many ways he was handi-
capped by too tender a heart. He could
mot refuse poems and articles, however
uninspired and even maudlin, IL the
writers needed money. So "a few months
later he gladly resigned his position
and returned to novel writing.
