girl Scout or member of Campfire organization.
 Troop Is very live bunch. In the last eight weeks the outfit has passed over 400 tests, 21s being listed to its credit last month. The troop leaders are hoping they will surpass this number next week.
 Hear This Record
 Pay attention to this:
 Every boy in the bunch is second class Scout! And while the troop now has only two first class Scouts. this month 1t has set it's stakes that that number shall reach IT.
 At recent meeting, officers who will serve until January l. 1928, were elected. This is the new line-up
 Senior patrol leader, William Monks; president, Lamar Branscomb; vice president, Willie Smith; Troop scribe, Jim Mason; patrol leaders, Joe Atkins, Lemuel Bridgers, Billy Major, John Cobbs and Lewis Davis; troop bugler, Mark Williams, drum mer, Addison (Oscar) Turner.
 Remember the investiture ceremo- nies begin at 7.3o sharp and be on time!
 The organization is expanding its troop shoulders over the fact that Is or 20 of the Scouts are going to enjoy camp this season. So far the group has registered more chaps to go than any other troop in the Bir- mingham district.

Troop Has q
 Fine Birthday
ny ENooH WILLIAMS

Assembling at the home of Mrs. E. c. Burchfield last Friday the Boy Scouts of Troop II enthusiastically celebrated tn ehirthday of their troop.
 The scout master of this troop is Mir. Burchfield who has been their leader for a long time. The whole troop thinks he Is one of the finest men and scout masters in Birming- ham. MT. Shine declares that he Is a most able scout mater and means much greater things to the boys than the big hearted companion that he is.
 Troop 14 has won number of sil- yer loving cups.
 Big Waiting List
 There are on the waiting list 32 scouts who want to join this troop. They have been waiting about year. Four boys have become eagle scouts, which Is as high a rank as they can attain.
 G. J. Mcdonald, who organized the troop, presented service stripes.
 MT. Shine made an address,
 The business last to come before the meeting had to be looked after in the dining room. All gathered there around big birthday cake, and the celebration. capped with this, made everybody wish birthday could arrive eyerysd day so.

touched. The surface Is only just scratched so long as there are 60 per cent of the boys who are not in scout work.
 Next to the actual religious train- ing of a boy. nothing can give him such training in character and good citizenship as scouting. It fits him for every trial and phase of life.
 Can Help Much
 No matter what profession hoy maps out as his future, scouting will make him more efficient to do this work Men should appreciate being leaders and moulders of boy ideals since whatever good qualities they themselves have established in their dispositions can be handed out to aid someone else.
 "The right kind of Scout master in- spires ideals in hls boys, They can come to him for very important ad- vice, and many times Scout master is able to point them, and encourage them, to future profession which they never thought about. For in- stance. boy may have decided to follow plumbing. or printing, or store keeping when really he is more fitted to be lawyer, doctor or electrician. A broad minded Scout master can thus keep many of his boys from be- ing misfits through life"
 Mir. Bum says scout leader gets great inspiration from his boys.

J. M. BUNN

This man Is J. M Bum. Take a good look at him. for he has just been appointed assistant to Roland L.. Shine. Scout executive.
 Ring Up For Action
 If you want a troop organized in your neighborhaad. go down to scout headquarters. or ring up and ask Mir. Shine to let MT. Bum come to you. You'll find MT. Bum will try to get a scout council organized and things fixed up right away so you can be- gin to learn all about first aid, hik- ing, camping, nature study, and how to be a manly chap, though not yet filling a mans shoes.
 MT. Bum, with this clear pair Of eyes and very straight shoulders, came here from Montgomery. Maybe that's one of the reasons he Is such a "capital' fellow He has already been at work in scouting for one year in Birmingham. He was asso- ciated with Troop A of Norwood.
 He Is searching like everything to find efficient men who are willing to devote a portion of their time to mak- ing splendid citizens out of boy tim : Der.

Manhattan Troops

Troop 2so having for some time been successfully issuing a semi monthly troop paper is now taking on a new feature, that of organizing a troop orchestra. Twenty scouts are already enrolled for this activity. Troop 437 has undertaken as a good turn to take care of the sidewalk in front of three houses on Forty ninth street and the early March storms have kept them engaged. Troop 655 has been doing work in cooperation with the Jewish war relief commit tee. Troop 555 counts among it's re- cent outstanding activities a snake rescue, a rescue from drowning, and Q case of fire prevention.

 G. L Mcdonald, district commits sioner, will be in charge of the cere- { 'mony. which will be marked by the lighting of 12 beautiful white candles and the repetition of the 12 Scout oaths which boys who take up Scout ing tuck into their hearts for keeps.
 Executive Present
 Roland l.. Shine. Scout executive, is scheduled to make an address, and if he puts his sentiments across as magnificently as he did not long ago at Fairfield, he'll bring some tears into the eyes of the boys and of par ents and visitors who will attend the assemblage. Also he'll produce great guffaws, medium sized laughter, thousands of grins, giggles and smiles as he relates stories of Scouting and heartfelt. tender memories from his own diary of experience.
 The audience will also be enter tained with first aid demonstrations. The president of Troop 3, Lamar Bran scomb, will say q few words. The investiture ceremony will close the program.
 H. Rosser Angell, the leader for the troop, will be present to make everybody feel delighted at going. And there's no doubt that those who Ep will be inspired to put their boys through every phase of Scouting and Fe sorry that they themselves are not !young enough to be either a boy or

New Assistant
 For Troop ,


 It has been thought that Troop f the south Highlands Methodist church could not have more pep than it hoasts.
 But members of the outfit say that hereafter they'll be increasing their pace and efficiency with the appoint- ment. just made, of Henry Jones as assistant scout master.
 Jones was formerly n Hve-wire scout under the jurisdiction of H.. Rosser Angell when th~ latter was scout master of Troop 10. Anybody would know that means fine train ang.
 It is declared that Henry Jones' xeckrd is one that can't be beaten and that mighty few can equal. He 1sfextremely versatile and is at home w4th the boys under all circum- s1hnces-and in fact with my crowd.
 3With him on the staff of Troop 3, n2stice is being served that other t1o0ps<wi1l find themselves far be- ktud Nef they don't watch out"

iy carved by master artists and the lighting hidden. or shaded. or placed in such a fashion that lines and curve and beauty would be present.
 In this connection Bob could think of nothing more beautiful than of a wondrous statue of 8 little red head ed girl. her hair flying upon her shoulders, her two hands clasping the strings of a broad summer garden hat. How beautiful she would be with one foot. slightly advanced, her lips parted. just as if she would speak. This should typity Miss Bir- mingham in the springtime of her life, But she must be barefoot and with slender ankles, and the breeze Blowing her dress.
 A Carriage
 Also he planned an ancient south ern carriage drawn up to an inviting oldtime pergola, covered with roses. Just descending from the carriage must be lady of the old south. as- sisted In her alighting by southern and debonair gentleman. The roses should be pink and white, Bob de- cided. How lovely they would be!
 Somewhere Bob wished to work out a winding stream, with white sail boats upon It's surface. And there ulhSL DO lfsHeT DOy WduinB Tn Il pool. Other heroic figures there should be as finely chiselled as any ever carved in ancient Grecian days, and as imperishable.

 But where would he get the money and who was to do the work? ]. It would take millions. but if he only could do 1t, Birmingham's fame would spread to tho ends of the world. Tourists would come to the city from every alien land to look upon this electrical art gallery. to gape at it's real artistic value, its uniqueness and beauty.
 An Auditorium
 But thcre must be an auditorium on the base of Red mountain, too vast amphitheater. Hero tho pop ulation from the crowded valley could assemble to hear the master artists of the future.

 q He is c. W. Mcdonald, and the new position to which he has just been promoted Is that of deputy commls- sioner of District 6. He received this by appointment of the Birmingham council through their executive, Roland l.. Shine.
 History
 Mir. Mcdonald, up to the time he was given new worlds to conquer. was scout master of Troop 49, which held the efficiency cup for so long it seemed like its scouts were going to wear lot of silver off it by looking at it so constantly. They finally got so expert at being efficient that even when they were not trying for the cup, the boys were loping along in that direction so fast it appeared as if the honor would be thrust upon them in spite of their announcement that they were not out to bring 1t home again.
 Mir Mcdonald has succeeded not only because he loves the boys. but because he keeps everlastingly at work and makes scouting so ab- sorbinsly interesting that the little tads turn out every Friday night be- cause they are afraid they'll miss something.
 In Work Five Years
 MT. Mcdonald entered scout work during the war-in 1917 Ills troop was organized in November, 1917. It has always been active. and has never missed single meeting night since organized. There have been since 1917 only three or four meet Ing nights when Mir. Mcdonald was not with his troop. Do you realize that this is record of five years compilation?.
 The troop members are proud of their scout masters promotion, and are boyishly expressing their satis- faction that he is not lost to them but will still be general-in-chief over their neck O the woods.
 The troop took active part in the Liberty bond sale. and almost every lscout identified with the group at that time qualified as an ace scoIt

 The boys who won these medals point to them with great pride and will all their lives cherish them as princely treasures.
 This outfit. ,nder MT. Mac" has three charter members now actively identified with tho organization as assistant scout masters. They are Leon and Carl Franklin and Elmer Erickson. The troop has three other patrol leaders nearing the age to be- come assistant scout masters and who came to the troop as tenderfoot scouts. As soon as they reach their eighteenth year and .yo become first-class couts. they will be com missioned as assistant scout masters. These are: Wilbur McDuffie, Fred Martin and Howard Allen.
 Taking Course
 The new district commissioner IS now completing his second training course in scouting since he took up the unselfish work.
 He said this week:
 Before entering scouting. I had no idea what the work really was. My desire now is to make District stand on a level, if not on a higher plane, with any district in the Bir- mingham council"
 Mir. Mcdonald will have charge of troops IS, 32. 22 and 49 One or two more will shortly be organized He is now busy with such organization work and with seeing that the old troops keep going. MT. Mcdonald has had one years program of six weeks training at scout camp, and one season of supervising a troop He tn criu f~ 1lA troop his assistance during camp this season, which will begin July and last for 10 days.
 MT Mac" takes the place of John W. Gibson. who was appointed scout executive to Alexandria, La, a shcrt time ago. However, the district has been divided into two parts so that more intensive work can be done in the territory.
