Conducted by National Council of the Boy
Scouts Of Amerlca)
SCOUTING IN FRANCE.

Scouting is being used as a means
of restoring the physical and mental
balance OF the boys and young men
Of the devastated area In the depart
ment Of the Aisne.
Lorne w. Barclay, educational direc-
tor of the National Council Of Boy
Scouts of America, is in France on
special leave Of absence from duty
In America in order that as the Uni
ted States representative of scouting
he may devote his whole time to the
direction Of scouting in France in con
junction and cooperation with the
American Committee for Devastated
France.
Last year Mrs. A. Murray Dixie and
Miss Anne Morgan made an investiga-
tion as to the status and conditions
of boy life and found that not only
were the boys undernourished and uu-
dersized, but that, as a result of the
war strain, they were in highly nerv-
GUS state. Coordination was lacking
to such degree as to make efficient
development of young man power al
most impossible.
Various efforts were made to coun-
teract this by regular physical exer-
cises, calistheniCS, gymnastics and
games, with little result.
The mind of the boy was not dis
tracted from his surroundings, which
were all reminiscent of war, for long
enough period to obtain any lasting
benefit.
In desperation, Miss Morgan ap-
pealed TO the Boy Scouts of America.
As result, Mr.. Barclay went over
last summer to conduct an expert
mental camp. This was so successful
that plans were Immediately made to
open several camps in the summer of
1921, if finances could be secured.
Boy scouts throughout the country
were asked to contribute S25, the cost
Of two weeks camp trip for one
French boy. This purchases his equip
ment and uniform, transports him to
camp and home again. Far more i'm
pOrtant, it fits him to organize scout
ing in his own community, and gives
him an even finer conception of pa
triotism and courage.
Boys are assigned as special guests
of the troop or individual who finance
them, pictures are exchanged and let
terS Written-all this paving the way
to stronger international friendship
and understanding.
The secretary Of the American Com
mite for Devastated France reports
S3,O37, received up to date. 1t is hoped
mat by October the first sufficient
monies will be in hand to defray all
the expenses of the two camps, one at
La CroiX ST. Ouen, near Compeigne,
and one at Corey.
The mayor Of Compeigne made
special call recently upon the officers
of the boy scouts and the American
Committee for Devastated France to
express in person the thanks of his
people; at is the best the most desir-
able, in fact, its Is an effort unique.

CALL ATTENTION TO SCOUT
HERO.

The story has more than once been
told of that gallant Oakland (Cal)
boy scout Allen Datfett, who gave his
life to save his younger brothers. last
spring and died saying: Il could do
nothing else. l am a boy scout" An
interesting sequel to this splendid lit
tie story of heroism is the fact that
the Oakland lodge of Elks, who are
tremendously interested in scouting,
wrote to their brother" Warren G..
Harding, calling his attention to the
lads noble sacrifice and true scout
spirit. The President at once replied
thanking the writer's for calling his
attention to the incident and asking
them to convey both his sympathy
and congratulations to the bereaved
parents.
Just scout! But his loyal readi-
ness to live up to his scout law and
oath to save life even at the cost of
mis- own has won him a place among
the heroes of the world

LITTLE ALLiGAToRS.

There is nothing much nicer than
food, said the first little Alligator.
Nothing that l can think Of" said
the second little Alligator.
Nothing that | can think of, either"
said the third little Alligator.
81 love food" said the fourth little
Alligator.
80 do l." said the fifth little ALI
gator.
1T gives us strength" said the sixth
little Alligator.
More than that" said the seventh
little Alligator, lit gives us pleasure.
That is more important than anything
else"
"Ah, yes said the eighth little ALI
gator, but we must be strong so we
will be able to eat lots of food. If we
were delicate and feeble we would not
be able to eat 50 much SO we must be
strong, too"
The eight little Alligators were TAX
ing a sun bath. They weren't really
very little, but they were young ALI
gators and they were going to grow to
be much bigger.
1--WE have always been greedy" said
the first little Alligator
Something like the pigs" said the
second little Alligator.
Food interests US more than any
thing" said the third little Alligator.
"And why shouldn't it?" asked the
fourth little Alligator. ut is most in
teresting, most interesting"
you're right" said the fifth little
Alligator. You are absolutely right"
1--WE have such strong jaws" said
the sixth little Alligator, land they are
SO nice for crunching our food whole"
1--WE don't eat daintily," said the
seventh little Alligator, land it is bet
ter that way. For when we don't eat
daintily we don't have to eat slowly.
And why should we do anything
else but gobble our food? We aren't
people who're supposed to eat nicely.
No, we're Alligators and we aren't
supposed to have beautiful manners.
''In fact, we hardly pay attention to
anything anyone says, but we will al
ways pay attention to food"
You've said a lot" said the eighth
little Alligator, but everything you
have said has been quite, quite true.
| agree with every word of it,"
"Ah,' said the first little Alligator,
I'VE have good teeth. We don't have
to go TO dentists, for our teeth are
naturally good"
Good teeth are a great help in eat
ing" said the second little Alligator.
I'VE eat more fish than anything
else, now" said the third little Alliga-
tor, but we will eat larger creatures
before long"
1--WE enjoy frogs and insects, too"
said the fourth little Alligator But
people needn't be afraid of us. We
don't want to eat them"
I'm sure they're grateful to US for
not wanting to eat them" said the fifth

Boy scouts are not trained partlcu-
larry TO be of use TO the military or
CARNATIONS of our country; they are
trained primarily and effectively to be
good citizens, and that is what we
need, above every other thing. 1t we
can inspire in them such ideals as
those for which the boy scout move
