When the town of Coshocton, Ohio,

WHAT BOY SCOUTS HAVE DONE

The Boy Scouts Of America cele-
brated the week Of the thirteenth an
niversary-February S-15. In its brief
history 100000 American boys have
been Influenced by Its program Of
character building and citizenship
training, and have promised to follow
the scout oath which is as follows:
ION my honor I will do my best:
Il. To do my duty to God and my
country, and to obey the scout law ;
~. To help other people at all times;
IS. 70 keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight. !"
The present membership Of boys and
leaders is over one-hah million.
The boy scout program in providing
wholesome work and play for the boy
In his leisure time, has proved re-
markable aid in the prevention Of tu-
venile delinquency. -..--. ~-.--
A large number of universities, col
leges, normal schools and theological
Summaries have placed the study Of
scout leadership In their curricuh.
Grade schools are becoming interested
in placing the study Of the program
in their work In connection with citi-
zenship training.
The boy scout movement stresses
out-of-door life because it believes
that to be the most helpful type Of
citizen, a boy must become q strong
and healthy man. Summer camping
has been put on an organized basis,
through the efforts Of the movement.
Last summer 100000 boy scouts went
into camp for two weeks or more.
As an aid to the boy In keeping men
tally alert, the program offers merit
badges for accomplishment In 81 va.
rious subjects. Scouts through the
merit badge system have wonderful
opportunity to choose wisely and
thoughtfully their future vocation.
The wholesome activity, splendid
courage and skill shown by boy scouts
have furnished literature for boys with
high and noble themes. The move
ment also produces magazine for
boys that has set an excellent stand
ard in boy reading.
Many cities and towns have been
recipients Of services from the boy
scouts in such work as campaigns for
safety first, cleanup, better health,
forest fire prevention, wild-life con-
servation, bird protection, and similar
important public interests. This serv-
Ice is a direct outcome Of the training
which emphasizes citizenship through
service"
Competent first aid has been given
by the scouts in countless individual
cases, and in connection with many
public disasters, such as. the 1918 in.
fiuenza epidemic, the Pueblo flood, the
Knickerbocker theater tragedy. Six
hundred and three gold medals have
been awarded to boy scouts who have
risked their lives to save others.
The scout slogan-''Do Good Turn
Daily"-has become famous through
out the country. With a half million
scouts and leaders seeking daily for
the opportunity to perform an act OF
kindness, one readily realizes the ire
mendous force for community welfare
that lies in the boy scout training.
