PARENTS AID BOY SCOUTS

One Of the greatest tributes to the
boy scout program Of character build
ing and citizenship training is the In
fathers In the work Of their scout sons.
Scouting Is creating q bond OF COM
radeship between thousands Of sons
and fathers who In increasing num-
bers are spending week-ends together
at scout camps, relaxing In the out Of
doors, skating, skiing, hiking and sled
ding together. Father and son hikes,
banquets and get-tOgethers are held
in practically every community. Con-
tests between lads and dads" create
splendid rivalry and make dad want
to get out with son in the open more
and more. [s = -.
One bighearted father who, as an
incentive to his own boy, joined the
ranks Of the tenderfoot scouts recent
ay with his son reached the very top
of the ladder together-Eagl rank.
! And mother! You may be sure she
Is very proud Of sons manllness, his
scout bearing, his practice Of the
scouts daily good turn, Of being ready
at all times to help others, his cour-
tesy to the old, the weak, the sick, his
Difference to those older than himself,
his growing strength from his outdoors
life. These things with their ultimate
bearing on character building, mothers
are keen to appreciate. To further
the work, scouts mothers clubs, COM
mittees, and associations are being
constantly formed. Mother and son
hikes and even mothers week at camp
are evidence that the scout son knows
"the best pal Of all" Is right behind
him in his advance in scoutcraft.
Scouting does not supplant the home
training. It supplements it and for
titles It. Scouting's best supporters
are the mothers and fathers who from
daily observation see with gratifica-
ton sons who are living every inch an
scouts.

Veterans Receive Physiother.
apy Treatments

The U. S. Veterans Bureau, C. D.
Hibbard, District Manager, Mime
apolis, has a special physiotherapy
department for giving treatments to
the disabled soldiers who need and
are entitled to them.
The majority of the patients are
those with indefinite pains which ap-
parently have existed for a long
time and upon which many thera-
peutic measures have been tried
The great majority of the cases are
what is ordinarily termed rheuma-
tism, neuritis, and myositis.
Usually they are treated with heat
and massage and by careful observa-
ton the doctor is frequently able to
locate the focal infections and to ad-
wise it's removal before giving fur
Their treatment. ( 3,
There are many patients whose
sole trouble seems to, be- extremes
nervousness. These patients I are
benefited by heat and massage and
sometimes by some electrical applica-
tion. So r -. i
The physiotherapy department is
in charge of physician who sees all
patients and prescribes all treat
ments, and three trained, skillful
nurses who attend to the treatment
The average is about 40 patients a
day. A great majority of the men
have expressed themselves as deriv-
ing a great deal of benefit from the
treatments. In many of the old,
chronic cases only temporary bene-
fits can be expected.

Life Saving Work
Of Red Cross Corps
Wars on Drowni11gs

The insignia Of the American Red
Cross Life Saving Corps on the bath
ing apparel of men, women and
youths is seen everywhere at favorite
bathing places along the coasts, riv-
ers, lakes and ponds. In its unrelent-
ing campaign to reduce loss of life by
drowning the Red Cross is making
constant Roadway. The demands for
instruction from organizations in all
parts of the country were so numer-
GUS the past year that 1t was neces-
sary to more than double the staff Of
Red Cross instructors. This work of
training for water life-saving showed
an enrolment OF over 10000 volun-
teers enlisted for duty on patrol, for
rescue and resuscitation, all compe-
tent to instruct others In the standard
water-safety methods. The Red Cross
by request of the War Department
gives water first aid training at the
United States Military and Naval
academies and in the military training
\ camps for reserve officers and civil.
ians. The four cash prizes awarded
by the Red Cross last year for heroic
rescues were conferred upon two girls,
boy and a man, indicating that the
youths of the country stand well at
the top in conserving life along our
water courses.

ITO DISASTERS IN YEAR
ENLIST RED CROSS AID
Nearly $500, 900 Spent in United
States - Greek Refugee
Work Completed.

Fer its preparedness to render re-
lief through effective and generous aid
to the sufferers from disaster the
American Red Cross is universally re-
garded as the one organization from
which response to appeal for help Is
immediate. In the last year, accord
ing to the annual report of the Red
Cross, it's disaster relief operations
were carried out in ITO localities in
the United States. This work, with
activities carried over from the previ-
GUS year, required the expenditure in
the United States of $397,46S.04 by
the American Red Cross, its Chapters
and Branches. In the emergency fol-
lowing the defeat of the Greek forces
in Turkey and the burning Of the city
of Smyrna, which entailed the relief
of nearly 100000 men, women and
children, Red Cross National Head
quarters expended $2,605,696.09. The
food distributed in Greece aggregated
$4,000 tons; garments, 100000; blan-
kets, 4S,550; new shoes, 5000 pairs;
medical, hospital and sanitary sup
plies, 304 tons. In the feeding Of the
refugees there was listed upwards Of
$4,000 children under three years Of
age.
The disasters in the United States
during the past year reported $40 per-
sons killed, 991 injured, 1881 rem
dered homeless. The total property
loss was estimated at $20,710, 900.
Relief of suffering caused by disas-
tiers Of such magnitude as to over
whelm the resources Of the commune
ties in which they occur is fundamen<
tai to the charter of the American
Red Cross. In addition to making ap-
preparations from its treasury and as
signing trained personnel to relief
work, the Red Cross in disaster CEN
tralizes and makes more effective re-
lief funds and supplies contributed by
the country at large.
Since 1881 the Red Cross has ad-
ministered more than $20,000,000 for
the single purpose Of disaster relief.
That it may continue to accept the re-
sponsibilities which grave emergen-
cies place upon the American Red
Cross appeal is made for a nation
wide renewal of membership during
the annual roll call, which opens on
Armistice Day, November II, and
closes on Thanksgiving Day, Novem-
Der 20.

The company started production
of gasoline-propelled automobiles
in 1904, and during the next seven
years built and sold 2461 passenger
cars and trucks, the chassis of
which were built by another comp
any.
The management perceived the
necessity of embarking into the
business on a large scale comnen-
surate with its position in the
vehicle industry, and sufficient to.
employ the facilities of it's large
plants and sales organization
throughout the world.
Moderately-priced automobiles to
be built and sold in large quantities
were decided upon and Studebaker,
in 1910, acquired complete owner
ship of the business, plants, assets,
and trade names of the Everett.
Metzger-F Flanders Company of De-
troit, which had been manufacture
ing machines of this character.
Makes Unusual Records
During its dramatic rise in the
automobile industry Studebaker
has established many records. Per-
haps the most remarkable of these
was in 1921, a year of business
depression, when Studebaker en-
joyed the biggest business in its
history, up to 1922. The sales of
Studebaker cars were 20 per cent
greater than in 1920, notwithstand-
ing that the total number of cars
sold of all other makes except Ford
was 45 per cent less then in 1920,
Sales during 1922 surpassed 1921
by 65 per cent and the record for
1929 was exceeded in the first eight
months of 1923.
In its II years studebaker, of
course, has undergone many
changes, yet in one respect it has
remained unchanged. y The old
ideals of quality, value and de-
pendability Of product, and into
gritty have endured down to this
day and remain the inspiration of
those who esatrol the destinies of
Studebaker.

Curious Musical instrument.

The ordinary handsaw has APPEARED
as a musical instrument. One seeker
after novelties uses a saw as q violin.
After long experiment and untiring
practice he has actually succeeded in
getting an agreeable music from the
tool
He holds the saw handle between
his legs, holds the tip of the saw in
the other hand and works the usual
violin bow with the other. The wi
brating steel blade emits soft, appeal
ing notes, the pitch of which is varied
by changing the curvature of the
blade. All sorts of queer effects can
be got by adept manipulation of the
blade. Sometimes the music resembles
the human voice; again it has the
weird wall of the Hawaiian ukulele.

Builds '.Horseless Vehicle"

It was inevitable, therefore with
the advent of the automobile in the
late COS that the company would
become interested in this new
method of transportation and its
possible bearing upon Studebaker's
business future,
AS early as the spring of 1897
Studebaker built and experimental
with "horseless vehicle, as it
was described in the directors
minutes, and bodies were built in
1899 for electric runabouts made
by another company. Studebaker
actually began building electric
runabouts and trucks in 1902 of
which twenty were sold in that
year, and a total of 1841 were con-
structed up to 1912, when it
abandoned electric machines.
