WHY BE A scoUT1

Stew Judkins," frSt-class scout of Topeka. Kan, knows why be Is scout, and makes no bones of telling the world. either. The following state ment appeared In local paper under his signature:
 "I an boy scout because l like 10 be one. The longer l am scout the hetter l like it. A scout learns things and has n pile of fun learning them. You know how a regular guy likes a good swim, a good hike, tusSing around the woods, honest-to-goodness boy games, snagging few fish and then eats them until he buSts. That's what you get nt boy scout camp, and you aIn't going to blame me for liking to be q boy scout To be a regular guy in this game, you got to play and live according to the rules. You sure find out what kind of guy kid Is, and If he Isn't what he should be, he either gets mighty lonesome in gang of scouts or comes across. I'll tell the world I'm glad 10 be scout, and know a few hundred other guys in Topeka who will shoot you the same dope"

BADGES FOR SCOUTING

The Albany (N. Y.) council reports that public health and hrem0nship are two of the most popular Merit badges among scouts Nearly fifty boys have qualified In public health since October 1, 1920, and forty have qualified In fremRnship. The author itles report that the intelligent Inter
 est taken by the boys In these lm' portant branches of public service has had marked effect upon the life of the city. Boys living in the more cOngested regions have helped mate rially in making their homes and neighborhOOd cleaner and more Sanl- tary and have brought the matter of sanitation to the attention of their parents. In the course of their public health work the scouts have inspected the city sewage disposal and filtration plants and visited the state lahOra- tory. examining the methods of water testing and other sanitation processes.

SCOUTS WIN PRAISE

At the Kansas City convention of the American Legion thousand or more boy scouts from the two Kansas cities and from Independence, Mo, acted as police for the big parade, which attracted the biggest crowds in the history of the city, and so Splendit- ly did they do the job that the papers wrote them up almost as enthuSias- tiCally as they did the Legion Itself, and the Legion voted them a resOlu- tion of thanks as well as passing a general resolution IndOrsing the move ment and urging LegiOnnaires to be come scout leaders.
 Fifty picked scouts from different troops served as an escort to distin- guiShed visitors. a stan of aides to the chief of police and as ushers to the reviewing stand. Nine of the fifty were Eagles. Every day of the con- vention 70 scouts acted as aides, ushers, and runners; 70 boys every day acted as traffic aides and had charge under their leaders, or parklhS thousands of automobiles; 50 boys were on duty every day in the various information booths scattered through out the city, and carried on a regular communication service between the booths.
 Another interesting good turn was the drawing by Eagle Scout James N. Pickering of the map of the city, a hundred thousand of which were printed and distributed among the vis- itOrs and delegates.
 "Au in all," says Scout Executive Wright, In speaking of the event, the boy scouts rendered 8 good piece of service" According to others the service was more than good. It was great.

4 new MEASURES
PUT UP TO VOTERS
PROPOSED STATE BOARD OF
EQUALIZATION HOLDS CHIEF
INTEREST IN ELECTION

Two proposed state constitutional
amendemnts, one referendum meas
ure, and one proposed petition for
initiative, will be submitted the voters
in Montana at the general election
on November 7th. One constitutional
amendment is that creating a state
board of equalization of three mem
bers to be appointed by the COVER
nor, and the other would authorize
the legislative assembly to provide
a plan whereby town, city and coun-
ty governments may consolidate.
The referendum measure is that
authorizing a state bonded indebted
ness of S4,5OOO,0 900 to be used for
the payment of an equaled compen7s
sation to each soldier of the state who
served in the military or naval forces
of the United States during the late
World War, and the proposed petit
ton for the parimutual, relating to
wagers, for the purpose of assisting
agricultural and livestock exhibit
tons.
Would Change Present System
Should the proposed constitutional
amendment, creating a state board
of equalization of three members,
carry at the general election it means
that Montana will have a board of
equalization similar to tax commits
sions, already in operation in several
other states. 1t will mean that the
duties of solving state taxation pro-
blem will be transferred from the
present board of five members COM
posed of state officials whose de-
partmntal duties do not permit them
to become qualified as tax experts,
to a board of three, MEMBERS of
which will be required to devote
their whole time to tax matters. This
proposed amendment will provide
that the commissioners of each county
shall constitute a county board of
equalization who shall continue to adj
just and equalize the valuation of
taxable property within their re-
spective counties, and that all such
adjustments and equalizations may be
supervised, reviewed, changed, in
creased or decreased by the state
board.

everything was spick-and-span, but

HARVARD GRID SYSTEM
IS TO UNDERGO CHANGE

Harvard is going to remodel its
system, according to an announce
ment by Head Coach Bob Fisher
The much-touted Haughton system
that has served the Crimson 50 we'll
for tho last eight or ten years is
about to be revamped. Defeats by
Princeton. which are occurring too
often to suit Harvard men, and by
Brown have caused the change
According to Fisher. the Crimson is
going to build up a more powerful
offense. The defense has served we'll
in fact. the head coach says that it
has kept right with the times. but
that offcnse-weil it's going to be
changed.
The Crimson. finding that it's de-
ccrtive stuff hasn't worked out so
well in rast years. is going in for the
shifts. In this the Cambridge stu
dents probab bly, will take a few point
erS from Knute Rocknc of Notre
Dame
Fisher SAYS Harvard will also go
in for variety. Fisher says that the
coaches are now mulling over plans
for next year: that when the Crimson
warriors step out next fall they'll
have lot Of brand d-new stuff.
Harvard's schedule for next fall has
been shaped SO that without weaken
ing It greatly it provides for more
gradual preparation for the big
games, Fisher said That will max e
il possible for the team to be brought
along next fall with new plays I"
better advantage than might have
been done in the last year or two.
