boys between the ages of twelve and
eighteen. Every creed, race and color
don its uniform. It is an interna-
tional brotherhood Of boys. 1t has
been adopted by every civilized coun-
try, and is the largest boys organiza-
ton in the world.
Liberal should have at least 100
more Scouts by Christmas. Mr.. John
W. Baughman's offer Of an extended
western trip is open to all boys Of
Liberal and vicinity. Any boy of av-
erage intelligence can enter now and
earn the trip. Come on boys, let's
line up at least hundred strong on
this great trip-a trip Of lifetime.
Boy Scout leaders are planning a
membership campaign. Why not send
your boy to the Scout meeting, pre-
pared to sign an application fer
membership right away? See any
