1t is rumored that in the kinder

Some could not solve it at all. They

TROOP 80, BOY SCOUTS OF
AMERICA
Once Again a Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year
(By l.. J. Schroder)

1t is an old wish, but one which
bears repeating once a twelfthmonth.
II doesn't mean merely may you be
merry and happy just the one first
day of the year. 1t rather means
may you find happiness all along the
way for three hundred and sixty-fve
days ahead. What makes happiness
anyway? Think back over the past
year. What are the hours that stand
out from the others in memory as
being particularly happy, the kind of
hours that left a warm, rosy glow
like the warmth and glow Of camp
fire. Everyone of you will, no doubt,
have a different response to that
question, but | venture to believe
that nearly all of you would agree
that some of the happiest hours you
can remember are the ones you spent
in camp, living close to natures
heart, lin the fine, vigorous, con-
genial comradeship of scouting. This
is as it should be. IL scout isn't
happy when he is camping out IL
doesn't seem likely that he would be
happy anywhere, now does it? Any
way one of my best New Year wishes
for you all is that 1923 may bring
more and richer and happier hours
in the open than any year you hav'
yet known. There Is nothing like |
for investment in health and fun
and progress in scoutcraft and man
; hood, and the most heart warming
fellowship, so get all you can out o
1t this happy New Year, and wha
is even more important, put all 20,
can into 1t.

News Service.
The bill upon which / have been
working is not general radio law.
II is the opinion of those inter.
ested in the subject that the thing
Immediately to be accomplished IS
the elimination of interference, and
the primary purpose Of the proposed
bill is to so enlarge and clarity
the power OF the Secretary of Com
merce that the present interference
may be reduced to 4 minimum.
We seek to do this by lodging in
the Secretary of Commerce power to
classify radio stations and the serv'
ice to be rendered by each, to assign
bands of wave lengths to each class,
to make regulations concerning the
power of apparatus, the purity and
sharpness OF waves, the location OF
stations. the times and methods Of
operating, and generally giving The
Secretary the authority 20 make
such rules and regulations not in
consistent with laws and treaties as
will tend to prevent interference.
The radio art is undergoing rapid
changes.
It would be extremely unwise to
write into iron-bound statute the
rules and regulations which un-
doubtedly are unnecessary to bring
order out of the present chaos OF
the air. 1t is essential that there
shall be fexibility in these rules
and regulations so that they may
change from time TO time as the
art itself progresses.
II also seems advisable to make
clear that the issuing of licenses is
not mandatory but is discretionary
with the Secretary and that the
licenses issued are revocable.
