 A-CAND|DATE, X SAYS BOOSTER
Head Of South Dakota Club Declares Automobile Manu- facturer Will Go SereneIy About His Own Business SAYS NATION WILL HAVE TO DRAFT HIM TO GET HIM Pierre Conventions To Pick South Dakota Choice Of National Candidates And Fix Party Platforms

HURON, $. D., Dec. 1.-Again the question is asked Is Henry Ford candidate for President, or is he not?
 South Dakota friends of the auto mobile manufacturer, after working industriously to put Ford in the presidency, were inclined to feel their efforts may have been mis- directed when they saw an article that appeared today in "The Henry Independent" published at Henry, South Dakota.
 Henry Ford is not a candidate for the democratic nomination for the presidency of the United States" the article said. The South Dakota boom for Ford is being directed from Henry. q short distance from here. The statement carried the name of F. II. Hildebrandt, president President club.
 '.Will Have To Draft Him."
 ''Atr. Ford" the article continued Ifs not going to announce his candidacy. He is not going to throw his hat into the ring. He is not going to spend his money to buy a nomination. MT. Ford is going to go serenely about his business and if the people of South Dakota and the rest of the United States desire him to lend his aid in directing the affairs of this coun- try. they will have to draft him into the service of the country"
 Democratic delegates to the con- vcntion in Pierre Monday to select a slate of candidates. wondered wheth CT or not Ford would refuse to come out into the open, even If he is se- lected to head the city ticket. The South Dakota law holds if any candi- date proposed on the ticket shall not have filed in writing by January l, 1924, his acceptance of that nomina- tion the secretary of state shall not allow his name to go on the primary ballot.
 l Leaders of the republican, demo- cratic and farmer-labor parties con fsrred separately here today on flHai plans for the proposed conventions at Pierre Monday. The Pierre con ventions will pick South Dakotas choice of national candidates and draft the party platforms.
 Leaders of the republican, demo- cratic and farmer-labor parties of South Dakota reconciled their opin- ions on candidates and platforms to- night preparatory to the proposal convention meeting in Pierre Tues day. The conferences were separate.
 The republicans discussed Presl- dent Coolidge and Hiram Johnson while the democrats talked Of Henry Ford and William G. McAdoo.
 The farmer-labor leaders did not state their preferences.
 At separate conventions in Pierre Tuesday the three parties will de- eide on their states and platforms.
 There is much interest in what action the democrats and farmer-la- bor partise take on the question of Ford. It is believed the democrats will turn to McAdoo in view of Ford's refusal to announce himself as a candidate for the presidency.

Scouting and the Nations Needs" 3"
His address answered a number OF
problems which were of great inter-

effects of the war.
DR.. Fisher gave five reasons for
the present unrest. An age OF Gym
ical people, an age of restlessness,
deficiencies of American men, a
drifting age and queried il this was
a nation of waning ideals. He follow

to how the Boy Scout movement

scouts in November. The pastor
served as chaplain of the troop, and
found occasion on each meeting
night to talk to his boys on the
Christian life in very practical
way, using the interests OF the boys
as a point of contac-. lie soon found
that scouting provided him with a
leverage, and as the troop grew, its
enthusiasm and esprit de corps was
centered in the church.
The Rev. Kenneth McComb had
occasion to visit his uncle the follow
ing spring.
"I hear great reports of you with
the boys" were the elders first
words. ST was little suspicious of
your attempts at first. 1 have al
ways supposed that scouting scat
tered the good effects of the work or.
that when scoutmasters took their
boys out on Sunday that it annoyed
ne much, but L Think from your
work, scouting does not scatter at.
all. Indeed, don't mind saying that
have started a troop of Scouts my
self. We don't hike on Sunday at
|all, but limit our activities to week
days. 1 cannot get a scoutmaster, so
temporarily 1 am doing the work
myself. 1 always thought I knew
boys, but am finding out that there
is much I don't know. I am renew
ing my youth as / go out with the
boys on their hikes, and a dinner
cooked in the open on these raw
November days makes you feel like
a new man. More ministers ought
10 take up scouting as an avocation;
not only will it take them out of
doors but it will show them where
the boys point of view is. If you
address your sermons to the boys,
the grown-ups will be sure to listen
and since L began to aim my talks
at the lads, 1 have never had at
tentive listenings."
And there the story ends for the
time being. These two ministers
discovered many valuable points OF
contact when they discovered the
possibilities in scouting for the busy
Christian pastor. There are many
other pastors who have heard of
scouting, but who have never inves-
tigated at first hand to see the enor-
nous opportunities it offers them.
There are parents who desire their
sons to be scouts, and there are
boys who desire to be scouts, and If
these two classes of people inter-
viewed their pastor and asked him
to write to National Council. they
would make a good beginning in get
ting scoutcraft established firmly in
their church. Through the good ef-
fects of scouting many boys may be
worn to Christ, and countless others
saved for definite and active church
life by their contact with their pas
tor and the dailv application of the
principles of the Christian life
through out the weekend.
