Club and kindred commercial and
semi-public bodies.
But what about the officers of

Are they in favor of the com

If not, why not? If so, why is it
that in furnishing our newly rem

NEWS OF THE
BOY SCOUTS

The Boy Scouts of America
have adopted the International
handshake of Boy Scouts, as far
as using their left hand is con-
cerned. Ever since scouting has
been in America, the Scouts have
had their own peculiar hand
shake, using the right hand, giving
prominence to peculiar position
of the three fingers which stand
for the three points Of scout oath.
Now they have added the feature
of using the same grasp peculiar
ito the Boy Scouts of America,
only doing it with the left hand.
At the International Conference
of Scout Officials which was held
in Paris last summer It was noted
that scouts of all foreign nations
shake with their left hands.
Another international feature
which the Boy Scouts Of America
have officially adopted is the star
to be worn on the uniform desig-
mating length of service. Each
year that a boy or official serves
he will be entitled to wear a star
over the left breast pocket of his
scout shirt. Five of these stars
may be replaced with a tive-year-
star. This new regulation does
not take the place of the service
stripe, nor of the veteran five
year and ten-year pins. 1t simp-
ly supplements them,
1t has been recommended by
the Executive Board of the Ma
tional Council of the Boy Scouts
of America that the medal known
as the distinguished Service
Medal of the Boy Scouts OF Am
erica" be added to the various
awards Of merit which Scout or
Scout Official may strive to at
tain. 1t is recommended that not
more than five of these medals
shall be awarded for the year
1928 and that they shall be for
very special distinguished serv-
ice rendered to scouting itself. /
This is to be experimental.
The Annual Meeting of the Ma
tional Council of the Boy Scouts
of America, which usually take'
place in March, will this year be
held in July in New York City.
This was definitely decided byI
the National Executive Board. In
asmuch as the next National
Council Meeting is to be one
which will stress the subject of
camping and outdoor life it was
thought well to hold the meeting
at a time when the men them
selves could get taste of rea'
camping. At least one of the
DAYS of the session will be spent
up at the Kanahwahke Lakes
Scout Camps in the Interstate
Palisades Park of New York,
which is the largest Boy Scout
camp in the world. The National
Scout Council is composed of over
900 men of all walks in life.
