THE SANTA PARTY
How Lots of Christmas Fun May
Be Had by Boys Club.
Zach Lad Provides One Present, Made
by Himself, for Old Kris
kringle's BAG.

THE biggest boy in the club should
l. be the Santa Claus. To dress
him up, borrow bath robe, and trim
it round the collar and cuffs with some
old fur. A big fur cap is the thing
for Santa Claus head, and great
big bag should be provided for him
to hang over his shoulder to carry
the presents in. A paper mask for
Santa can be bought at some small
store for about twenty cents, and a
big beard can be made Of excelsior,
tied up so as to stay In place. If
the excelsior can be dyed gray all the
better.
Each boy In the club should pro-
vide one present for Santa's bag. 1t
would be better if each boy should
make the present himself Good things
for such presents are bean bags, base
balls, bats, shinny sticks, tops, mar
bles, short wooden swords, Slings,
putty blowers, jew's-harps, sOap-bubble
pipes, jack-stones, match-safes, candy,
chewing gum, and SO on.
ALI the presents for the Santa Claus
party should be handed to commit
tee Of three knights, whose duty II
is to pack them all neatly in Santa
Claus bag. At the time of the party,
the members of the club should gather
together In the meeting room, and the
committee may meet in q room near
hxyx x,{% ha hnu xuh m 90 tn hn 40 n IN
Claus. They must dress him up and
escort him to the club. When Santa
comes In all will rise, and the presi-
dent will say:
Greeting, Santa Claus; the boys
await you."
Santa may reply, Greeting, my chill
dren."
Then Santa passes out the presents.
1t is best for the boys to form a line,
and for Santa to reach in the bag
without looking and pull out the first
thing that comes to his hand.
The last present in the bag is Santa
Claus. A good deal Of amusement can
be had at the party il q committee Of
FIVE boys Is chosen to look after the
entertainment. A good plan is to get
up shadow pictures. A sheet is hung
up near one end of the room, about
five feet from the wall. Behind the
sheet, close to the wall and low down,
Is placed a strong light. The knights
and others who are to be the audience
all sit In front, and when everything
is ready all lights except the one be
hind the sheet are put out. The boys
who are to make the shadow pictures
then 20 between the light and the sheet

night. Nineteen were present and an
entire new set of officers were elected.
Edward Paulin was elected as senior
patrol leader; Harold Hardwick was
elected leader of the beaver patrol:

wolf patrol, and Dan Jones, leader of
the flying eagles. Stewart Gamble

styles. as color bearer; Sam Jones. as
yell leader, and Kennith Nelson, as
leader and originator of sports and
new games
ner and 1t sure is beauty. The beaver
patrol gets to carry it for the month
of January. However. they may lose
I. at the end of the month because
the patrol with the least number OF
demerits has the honor of carrying
tho banner for the next month. De
merits are given at inspection for dirty
hands, unshiied shoes, and for general
untidyness. Dement'S are also given
for any acts of disobediance or dis
orderly conduct during the meeting.
Our troops color is Orange, so
when you see scout wearing an
orange neckercheif you will know that
he belongs to Troop Is

with us last meeting night and they
promised to come back again. These

The Pilgrims Of 1920

With westward PROV the Mayflower
sailed
A crowded ship. q hope forlorn
And ere New England's shore was
hailed
A pilgrim died and babe was born.
Bigot and tyrant left behind.
And homes too, that September
morn,
She sailed upon an autumn wind
For tland where Freedom might be
born.
She labored then through heavy seas.
With straining spars aid canvas
torn,
But ever on the wintry breeze
With brighter inspiration porne.
Ger gulfs profound and trackless ways
By faith upborne, that sturdy band,
After dreary hundred days.
Debarked upon a frozen strand.
What mattered! Here, no longer
slaves,
All hated bondage now forsworn,
Though digging half a hundred graves
While waiting for the springs re-
turn.
They delved, they span, they had their
cares,
The leveled graves We're green with
corn,
And fervent their Thanksgiving pray
ers.
For there was the Republic born.

ties to be participated in by the scouts

thing that has been planned for some
time and for which all troops in the
city is working hard, is the indoor
contests to be held in the c. F. & l., Y.

ply offered by the Pueblo council for
winning the highest number of points

must win this trophy three consecutive
times in order to retain it permanently
and troop is working hard to win II
