Impossible to organize them7
This leads us to declare that In
other ways the patrol has not been
adequately emphasized. A troop Is
no stronger than the patrols which
compose 1t. The patrols offer excel
lent opportunities for grading within the
troops. They afford the maximum op-
portunfty for developing Older boy
leadership. The patrol leader is a
very important factor in the manage
ment Of troop. We should be more
concerned with his selection and pro-
vide special opportunities for his train
ing. They are, as a rule, older boys.
The cultivation and utilization Of the
patrol leader constitutes one Of our
largest opportunities for holding the
older boy. The real appeal to the
older boy is not along the line Of sell
flshness through the proffer Of priv.
ileges, but through the appeal to serv.

responsibilities. He loves to be q lead.

this some scout leaders consider such
a church as lacking the opportunity
for troop organization, many suggest
ing that several such churches combine
and form troop The latter plan,
however, seldom works out salts
factOrily because the troop lacks the
identity 1t should have in the church
Of which the boy is member or with
which he Is identified.
The error In assuming. that the
church which cannot supply a suf-
fcient number OF boys to make up q
full troop cannot organize for scout
ing Is due In part at least to failure
to emphasize the patrol as the real
unit Of organization. A patrol OF eight
constitutes large enough group to
provide excellent opportunity for good
scouting. In fact, the smaller number
has particular advantages. There is
more likelihood Of success in securing
a leader and more chances OF an efi-
-cient program. There are men will
ing and competent to lead eight boys
who are not willing and who are not
competent to handle q larger number.
With this point Of view can there not

II TIE. :.

Bismarck, NJ D., april 8.-Startl-
ing information concerning the av-
erage tax rates and the per capita
tax rates for the several counties in
North Dakota as contained in the
statement, published herewith, pre-
pared by Lyman A. Baker, statisti-
clan of the North Dakota tax de-
partment.
"It is somewhat difficult to draw
general conclusions and to make
comparisons, consequently we will
point out a few of the items of in
terest contained in these tables, and
also in regard to the distribution OF
The 1921 tax levy" says Mr.. Baker.
"The average per capita wealth OF
he state as represented by the per
capita assessed valuation is $2,129.-
81. In 1921 the United States CEN.
us estimate of the ger capita wealth
Of the state including both taxable
and exempt property was $3,374.
tFhe state tax department estimates
the per capita wealth of the state
at the present time to be So, 70O.
The average per capita wealth OF
the United States as estimated by,
the census department was $1,965
in the year 1912.
1.-THE per capita assessed valua-
tion figures range from $3,339.O5
in Griggs county to $1,O46.65 in
Sioux county.
"Tax rates are low generally in
counties of the greatest per capita
wealth although there are a num-
Der OF exceptions to this rule.
"Tax rates are excessive in west
ern North Dakota. The prosperity
Of that section of the state will De
retarded unless tax rates can be
lowered.
..The tables show that taxing
districts have failed to, limit their
expenditures to conform with their
financial ability to pay.
1.-The proportion of 1921 general
property taxes levied for state
county, township, school and city
purposes are as follows:
State .14.s1 percent OF total
County ..23.75 percent of total
Townships :. 9.53 percent OF total

Sioux. rate 2.75 per cent; Dunn,
rate 2.77 per cent, and Mclean, rate
2.78 per cent. All other counties
within the district have an average
tax rate in excess of 3 per cent on
the assessed valuation of property,
which means that each $lOO OF pro-
perty bears tax burden in excess
