A FINE LOT OF BOYS
So Say the People at Murrels Inlet
of Our Scouts.
(By Rev. Jno. w. Davis)

The Boy Scouts with their Scout
Master returned to Kingstree over a
week ago, but they are still talking
of their fine trip to Murrells Inlet
The camping site was ideal. The
name given to their camp was Sea
Oak.
There was an abundance of fish
such as founders, whiting, trout,
mullet, shrimp, crab, oysters, etc.
never has there been happier and
better-behaved troop of boys as was
told them by the residents Of Muir
rells Inlet. There was girls camp
about two miles below Sea Oak,
The gentleman and lady in charge
of this camp were so deeply impress
ed with the manly behavior of our
boys, that they brought their girls
to our camp and said 1--WE want our
girls to meet your bays-and we
want your boys to visit our camp"
Sccutmaster Davis could not resist
nor would he have been so unkind
as to resist the pleading eyes and
suggestive grunts and clearing-up OF
throats of his fine boys. He was
pleased at such compliments and
quickly granted these requests. We
fee, certain that the stay of certain
boys was made much happier by the
presence of these young ladies, and
we feel certain also that these young
ladies' stay was made much pleasant
er. These were not the only young
ladies who favored US or were favor
ed by US. The lack Of space forbids
the Scoutmaster going further into
detail. But he would like to say that
the people were very courteous, and
truly kind and hospitable. The resi-
dents told him more than once to
make their stay longer and some al
most begged him to bring-not his
self but his boys-to Murrells Inlet
again. The Scoutmaster desires to
express his and his troops thanks
to those who made it possible for
him and his Scouts to enjoy that
wonderful experience and privilege
that come to those and only those
who have been to the beach. He and
his troop are deeply indebted to Mr.
D. ]. Epps. and Mr.. Duncan Gamble
for their assistance. The Scoutmas-
ter is greatly pleased to tell the par
ents and friends Of his boys, that the
people at the Inlet told him that he
had the best behaved and most con-
siderate troop or company OF boys
that had ever been there. That is
enough to make the parents and
friends glad, and to assure them that
they truly should be proud and thank
full for such boys. He unhesitating-
ly says that although his boys are
real boys-the kind he loves-full OF
fun and frolc, he challenges any per-
son to find finer troop or company
of boys anywhere.
The troop owes money. The boys
were assessed only three dollars each
for the entire trip. The cost was
about five dollars per scout. In view
of this and that the troop may make
its finances, not beg them, they are
to play the Scouts of Summerton here
next Tuesday or Wednesday. The
small Scouts will play in the morn
ing and the large Scouts in the after
noon. The scoutmaster asks that
ther pproval and sanction Of this
sa1ehdid organization by attending
these games.
