The ranks of privates are filled to

.oviously and Indignantly upon those
energetic souls who, with seemingly
mail effort, earn as much In week

These privates are becalmed in the

,ock stamina and resolution. In nine
cases out of ten they have no one to
hlame for their lowly estate but them
selves
They waste their leisure hours and
HOLIDAYS in frivolous amusements In
stead Of giving sober thought to the
future.
Everything that tends to their eleva-
zion and betterment Is studiously
summed. Their aspirations, If they
have any, are smothered at birth.
In moments Of depression, when q
steady, trustworthy, clear visioned
worker at their elbow Is promoted
their lamp of hope flares out and leaves
them In utter darkness.
The years roll on, but the light never
brightens, and they march in darkness
down the hills to the valley Of despair

to offer them advice.

FOR LACK OF A BOY SCOUT

The papers recently gave consider
able publicity to the fact that GER
tain physician lost himself in the
woods while on a hunting expedition
and was found two weeks later, nearly
starved with a raw partridge in his
hand, because he had no matches to
start Il fire. 1t is interesting to notice
how frequently in commenting upon
this incident the newspapers have
pointed out that 1.-The doctor should
have had boy scout along, to show
him how to make a fire by friction and
find his direction by sun and stars"
"By reason of the scout movement,
the next generation will be better pre-
pared for such emergencies" observes
the Salt Lake City News. "To say the
man suffered for lack of match Is to
misstate his case. He suffered almost
to death for lack of fire, and he lacked
fire because we have come to depend
SO much on matches. What he needed,
in the absence of matches, was q
knowledge of some earlier way of max
ing fire." Some knowledge Of the arts
Of primitive man are desirable for all
who would seek the primitive wilds.
This is one of the great ideas of the
boy scout organization. The finished
scout, left in the woods, could make a
| fire by rubbing sticks, could make a
wigwam or hut, and could estimate
the general direction by his watch with
the aid of the sun. The boy scout or
| ganizers did not discover these things,
but they discovered that they could
still be used in an age Of great arti-
fetal progress"
