Troop No. 81, a recently organized
troop, will hold their first meeting
Thursday, June 30th at p. NJ All
applicants for membership are urged
to be in attendance. Meeting will
be held at 606 Opelousas Ave.
Mr.. l.. J. Schroeder, formerly as
sistant Scout Master of Troop No. SO

this Troop. Numerous applications
have been received during the last
week from the 100 per cent Ameri-
can boys of our town. Any boy
twelve years of age is eligible for
membership in this great worldwide
organization.
Good citizenship means to the boy
scout not merely the doing of things
which he ought to do when he be-
comes a man such as voting, keeping
the law, and paying his taxes. but
the looking for opportunities to do
good turns by safeguarding the in
terest of the community and by the
giving of himself, and in unselfish
service to the town or city, and even
the nation, of which he is part.
1t means that he will seek public
office when the public office needs
him. 1t means that he will stand
to the equal opportunity and justice
which the Declaration of Indepen-
dence and the Constitution guarantee.
1t means that in every duty of life
he may be on the right side and loyal
to the best interests of the State and
Nation. BY the good turn" that
he does daily as Boy Scout, he is
training himself for the unselfish
service that our cities and land needs
so much.

What the Ex-President Woodrow
! Wilson has said about the training
of our youth: THE future of every
