events In the field meet to be held
May 10. Fellows, this should be the
biggest and best meet that has ever
been pulled off in this state. Every
scout troop should enter. There are
several out-of-town troops coming
in on Il. Now is the time to show
Just what you have been doing all
winter in scouting.
A wonderful letter has been re-
ceived from former Scoutmaster
Frank McIntire. of Troop q. telling
of his work In Newburgh. n. Y. He
Is stin very much interested In
scouting and has accepted a position
on the troop committee here. He
enjoys reading "Scoutcraft", but
would like news OF the old troop.
Boys OF No. 81 bring us a record
OF what you are doing and let's give
him a big surprise.
Dr. Barker. of Rotary Club fame,
addressed the High School pupils,
mothers and fathers OF the Will
mington boys and girls last Thurs
day. One Of the most inspiring
speakers that we have struck in this
city. Did you hear him?
Through the courtesy Of the
johnson & Johnson Co. New Bruins
wick. N. j.. we are able to present
a little pamphlet entitled House
hold Handbook" to every scout in
the city and under the jurisdiction
OF the wilmington council. This
little protector Of the home against
germs tells: How to prevent the
spread Of disease; how to keep we'll;
household and toilet hints. first aid
to the injured; safety first, etc. There
is no requirement in scouting as
important as the one treating on
first aid. To BE Prepared, a
scout must be able to render good
service along this line. Get on the
lob, specialize on first aid work and
let us know what you are doing.
As soon as headquarters receives
the booklets. they will be sent to
the field for distribution.
Several appeals have been made
10 the scouts for bird houses and
no response has been noticed. Can't
you furnish US with at least ~ at
once? These will be paid for. What
is the matter with you, scouts?
Some scoutmasters and scouts ex-
pressed anxiety regarding scout
headquarters being closed. The Of
fee is not closed yet and should
there be any developments which
might make Il necessary TO close It,
the field will be advised.

Many of the so-called "dandy' UNI

being encouraged TO grow the young

causes them to throw out new shoots
