Always Courteous, Willing and Eff
cient Are the Little Fellows When
Called Upon to Render Assistance.
THE TWO BIG THINGS

In addressing gathering of scout
leaders at Lansing, Mich. recently,
Chief Scout Executive James Z. West
pointed out that the success Of the
scout movement must fundamentally
depend upon two things-first, the de-
sire Of the boys themselves to be
scouts; second, the willingness of the
right kind of men to give leadership.
He maintained that only as the scout
movement rang true to Its ideals
could II get either the right kind Of
men or the boys themselves and asked
every executive present to test out
his plans for scouting, to see IL they
contributed to one or the other or
both these fundamental necessities.

ceased bankers or the name of build
ing in which they establish luxurious
ly furnished suites. Then they sit back
and listen to the dollars clinking into
their Golfers from the pockets of the
unsuspectlng, who believe they are
dealing with the sons of the financial
wizards of generation ago.
Any secret process to manufacture
anything is one of the favorite founda-
tions on which to construct swindle.
1t seems to cloak charlatanism and fur
nish tempting appeal to human
credulity. Not long ago a company
was formed in one of the large east
ern cities to make cosmic bearings for
automobiles and airplanes. The proc
ess was to be kept secret, it being
decided not to even patent the process
because of the danger of it's being
stolen.
When the secret was revealed at a
amount of stock had been disposed Of,
it read as follows: "To 100 pounds
Of metal add four ounces of horse
hoof parings, three ounces of borax,
two ounces of powdered glass, and
one ounce of sea salt After copper,
lead, and tin are fluid, put in horse
hoof parings and stir well, then add
glass, borax, and sea salt combined,
then STIR"
A Good Formula.
Not the least amusing thing In rela-
tion to the formula was that 1t Is all
right. The company expected to make
the concoctiOn at cost of 1S cents q
pound. and sell 1t at S5 cents, but a
subscriber to the stock who could not
quite fathom where the horse-hoof par.
ings came in began an investigation
despite the fact that he had been sworn
to secrecy. He learned that foundry
men throughout the country had been
using this formula for half century
and that the product could be sold by
them for IL cents a pound, or cents
cheaper than 1t cost the company to
manufacture 1t. The officials of the
stock company were arrested, but, II
Is said, they had taken in more than
$575,000 through the scheme.

cement sacks
D year?
Practically 90 per centio
the o5,oOO,OOO barrels of
portland cement shipped
last year was delivered in
returnable cotton sacks.
To supply users of cement
promptly, the industry must
have about 2OO,OO0,OO0
sacks either on hand or in
use.
The sack method of ship
ping is most convenient
There are four sacks to a
barrel. Each sack contains
"a pounds of cement-a
cubic foot. And cubic
foot is handy volume in
proportioning concrete
mixtures.
When cement is shipped, thesacks
are billed TO the purchaser. When
they are returned, they are bought
back at the same price if they are
In disable or repairable condition
This involves much work In
checking, cleaning, sorting and
repairing.
But in spite of the fact that every
good cement sack is redeemable,
100000 of the sacks shipped
everyyearfailto come back-aloss
of nearly S5,0oo,0O0 year at
present prices of new sacks.
To replace these lost, strsycd or
stolen" sacks requires annually
over 10000 bales OF cotton II re-
quires that the textile industry
weave strip of cloth 30 inches
wide and 1900 miles long. 1t
means that I 800 looms are kept
working fun time for year.
Thousands of sacks returned to
the cement mills for redemption
are damaged, yet accepted for
credit, if they can be repaired.
This repair is done by the cement
manufacturer at his own expense.
A medium sized plant shipping,
say 100000 barrels Of cementa
year, has to repai- j average of
5000 sacks per from among
those returned or credit. This
keeps people constantlyworling
at rapidly operated electric sew
ing machines In million barrel

stantly employed sorting counting,

returned sacks so that they may
again be used.
AT the present time $3o,Oo0,ooo

Of the investment which the ce-
ment industry has in cotton sacks
Sacks are one of the lesser, but
nevertheless important items In
