One OF the problems confronting
the national headquarters. Boy
Scouts OF America, and Scouts Ex-
ecutives throughout the country is
the great turnover in scouting.
There are so many boys clamoring
for scouting that the average out
master gives little or no thought to
the number OF scouts dropping out
OF his troop. Now this leaving of
scouts is the turnover in question.
National headquarters desires to
know at what age this happens. and
whether it is the fault OF the pro-
gram or of the scoutmaster.
What makes a boy leave the troop
after short period OF two or even
three weeks or months7 II it is
the scoutmaster, then we might say
It is faulty Leadership. This seems
TO be the general impression gather
ed from the entire field.
The tenderfoot is enthusiastic
over scouting, hence in a more re-
ceptive mood than he would be at
later time. II we place more en-
phasis upon the service period Of
the tenderfoot, giving the ground
work upon which a good scout is
made, we must not be concerned
with how soon he can pass the test
and advance to second class or even
FIRST class.
Must Interest Boy 80 Days
Tie question most naturally
arises the mind OF the scout
master, how am l going to keep this
youngster busy for thirty days +?
one can think OF no words that will
more clearly express to the mind
OF a scout or boy the idea Of citi-
zenship than the words team
work" Good citizenship means a
whole-hearted willingness to play
the game" with your fellows in
such a way that each of you may
attain the greatest possible amount
OF good In life. 1t is team work
that wins a football or basketball
game; IT'S team work that enables
business organization TO forge
ahead; its team work that makes a
country and a people able to achieve
great things; II is team work that
builds us good scout troops.
Primitive man, by brute force
took what he wanted without re-
gard to the rights OF others. The
weak fell victims to the strong.

vantage Of give and take" policy
