Seal Hunting.

Newfoundland seal hunters for gen
erations have wasted most Of their
time In the actual location of seal
herds. 1t was like spending an hour
looking for berry bush that could be
picked clean" In ten minutes.
This appealed 30 the Imagination of
Alan S. Butler, young English flyer,
out cunning for opportunity instead Of
waiting for her.
He contracted to locate the seal
herds at ten cents head, by air
planes. Now his Aerial Surveying
company is doing land-office bust
ness and Butler is on the road to
riches at twenty-three.
It's humbug, that opportunity
knocks once at every mans door. OPP
portunity does pause at every mans
front gate, but she usually has to be
dragged to the door by a constant
watcher.

COURT OF HONOR RECORD

The record of the boy scouts in life
saving is an impressive tribute to the
native heroism of the boy and to the
training which enables him to make
this spirit count. Up to 1922 only II
gold medals, 129 silver and 400 bronze
have been awarded to scouts by their
national court of honor. A new medal
has been designed and henceforth Will
be the only medal awarded by the
scout organization. Hitherto there
have been several medals, the bestow-
al Of which involved difficulties Of
grading which we're found too intricate
A new form of application for life
saving award has also been adopted.
The application blanks place RESPONSE
bility for the gathering Of data upon
the local court of honor and require
that the service rendered "be not only
courageous and efficient, but shall in
yolve actual risk to the rescuer."
When a rescue has been accomplished
without risk letters of commentator
will be awarded. During the last year
the old system of graded awards was
In effect. Under this system only three
gold medals were bestowed.

the most valuable assets you possess,
isn't he? He looks al you with the
clear eyes Of youth; bat he will soon
have developed into sturdy manhood.
His hungry young nind reaches out

cheap sensationalism or on glorious
Ideals? Your boy can feel himself one
with the pioneer heroes Of his coun-
try's history; with Kit Carson blazing
trail through the forest. with Daniel
Boone trapping foxes In the wilder
ness, with Abraham Lincoln, splitting
rails. Your boy can become pioneer
scout.
A pioneer scout wears the uniform
Of the Boy Scouts OF America. He
studies all the fascinating details of
scoutcraft as described in the Boy
Scouts Handbook. He learns the
scout salute, the scout sign. the scout
oath. He acquires the necessary
knowledge, takes the various tests,
and wins the promotions, awards and
merit badges. How these things ap-
