BOY SCOUTS
 & Communicated
COURT OF HONOR

Last Thursday evening the Court of Honor met in Judge Thomas of fee. As Mir. A. H. Geier has left town Judge Thomas appointed Commis- sioner Royal in his stead. Another member has been added, Mir Harry Gartley who also takes great inter est In Scouting. The Court consisted of Judge Vim. G. Thomas, Mayor J. G. Grant. Superintendent w. L. Gross, Dr. R. J. Diven, and Mir. L.M. Royal.
 The four assistant scout masters, John Coulter, Elton Engstrom, Neil Grant, and Fred Gunderson, were presented for several merit badges. as we'll as patrol leaders, John Grant James Wheeler, George Case. Harold Ottesen. Raymond Wheeler was presented for first class rank, and Marion Goodrich and Ingvald Nore for second class. All were found to be very proficient.
 Judge Thomas brought up the matter of using firearms or air rifles in or near town, and requested that any Scout report to him any person using these without authority. He also stated that the law against this would be rigidly enforced in order that no more accidents occur.
 Dr. Diven brought up the question of the killing of our birds on their northward journey and the scouts will do their utmost to protect them.

SUN, MOON AND STARS

Mars is the fourth planet from the sun.
 Jupiter Is the largest planet in our solar system.
 The sun, If 1t were hollow sphere, would hold million globes as large as the earth.
 The sun is distant from the earth 94, 100000 miles in June and 91, ,5OO, ,OOO in December.
 The light of the North Star is esti- mated to be 190 times stronger than that of the sun.
 Although 400 times larger than the moon, the sun Is 400 times farther away from the earth, making the two appear about the same size.
 A mountain on the sun, if it bore the same proportion to that luminary as Mount Everest does to the earth, would be GOO miles high.
 Mercury and Venus are the only planets that have no moons. Counting our own moon, the system of planets possesses no less than 2 moons.

Round Table Organized

The Scout officials of Wrangell have organized Scoutmaster' Round Table which meets every Monday evening in the parlor of the Wrangell hotel to talk over and plan work for the betterment of the troop.> George Moran is president, John Coulter vice president, Elton Engstrom secretary. and Neil Grant treasurer. There are eight mem bers of the Round Table and all are commissioned officers in the Boy Scouts of America.
 George E. Moran is now the Scoutmaster of Troop I and he is certainly doing splendid work in training and disciplining the Scouts. Most everyone has noticed the snappy way in which they salute their officers and the way they drill every night at seven o'clock. The credit for all this is due to MT. Moran.
 Some people who see the scouts drill every night have an idea that the scouts make tin soldiers of boys. Although drilling is important in the disciplining of boys mind and body. it is not all that the Scout movement stands for. Scouting brides itself in the fact that it is military and it's aim is to build up the boys character and useful ness as a citizen
 Troop ? is now fully organized with Harry Coulter as scoutmaster and Eugene Wheeler as his assist ant. The troop is now organizing baseball team. The meetings con- sist of a short course in Scouting and conclude with an hours basket ball game.
 Troop I has organized two base ball teams with Lennie Engstrom as captain of the first team and Ray mond Wheeler captain of the second team. They have challenged the Petersburg scouts to a game and ex- pect to show them how to play base ball.
 The dance given by the scouts last Saturday night was a complete success both socially and financially due to the fact that the SS. Admiral Rogers was in port fer several hours that evening and large number of the passengers attended the dance.
 James Wheeler has succeeded John Grant as Senior Patrol Leader of Troop I due to the fact that his patrol won the most points for the past Court of Honor. James says that he has the job for keeps but the three other patrol leaders say that they are going ot take it away from him next month.
  Harold Otteson has been promoted from Scribe to Patrol Leader of Troop I. Joel Wing succeeds him as Scribe.
 
 l. Albert Lee has been elected patrol leader of Troop 2.

MEN NEED FEAR.
HOW LONG CAN you THINK?
DIVORCE AND CANCER.
HOW RICH ARE WE?
Rev. Percy StickneN Grant mourns
as follows:
If 85 per cent of young men enter
college believing in Christianity and
nearly all of them have lost their
faith on leaving college, we are
teaching Christianity in the wrong
way.
Very likely hard facts of science
are taught in way that crowds out
belief in miracles. It must be remem-
bered, however, that boys in their
teens do not exactly believe anything
They only take for granted what has
been told them.
1t takes. long mental medicine to
plant religious belief in a young mind
beyond all possibility of up-rooting. A
man, known all over the country, said
at the recent Lloyd George luncheon
in New York:
"Only the Catholic Church
stands between property and red
radical confiscation. The Protes-
tant church lost it's power when
it stopped teaching that there is
an actual blazing hell. Men need
e.:r~1o4o,,od
The gentleman is a good PrOtes-
tant and goes through all the usual
motions, but he is discouraged. If it's
true that fear of hell fire alone will
keep men honest, that's sad. But is
it so? The American Federation of
Labor which is non-sectarian, comes
out strongly and officially against
Communism, confiscation of proper
tt and other extreme radicalism.
High wages enable men to acquire
property, And when a man owns
something, he at once objects to any
plan for dividing evenly. Capital will
learn, perhaps, that its safety lies in
making the little man a little proper
ty owner. A house paid for and
savings bank account will inspire
more conservatism than any fear of
hell

Harvard will teach Freshmen to
think. Perhaps it can be done. But
it recalls the old saying about leading
horse to water.
/ write, not that you may read, but
that you may think Montesquieu put
that in his Spirit of Laws" long ago.
Socrates showed where true thinking
begins when he said he supposed he
was called the wisest of the Greeks
because he knew that he knew moth
ing.
Thinking cannot be taught, exactly.
But is can be stimulated. When the
apple fell, that started important
thought in Newton. When Columbus
made the egg stand up, that probably
made the spectators think for a few
seconds.
But how can you teach or provoke
PROLONGED concentrated thinking !?
Select your subject, matter unlimit
ed in infinite space" or time without
beginning or end, or the logical pro-
ability of personal immortality. The
average mind will find it hard to
stick to one thought for three min
utes.
For seven marriages in the United
States there is one divorce. For seven
people of middle age one is sure to
die of cancer.
Some call the divorce cancer worse
than any other malignant tumor.
If we understood cancer and d.
vorce we might find them not so far
apart.
Both come from ignorance, both
could be prevented.
The voters of Oklahoma seem to
have decided against Governor Wal
ton, in favor of the Ku Klux by an
overwhelming majority. Governor
Walton secures an injunction to pre-
vent an election that would impeach
and put him out.
If it be true that the Ku Klux COM
pletely control great state, that in
terests all other states 1t may be
that Oklahoma voted not SO much in
favor of the Ku Klux as against Gov
ernor Waltons use of militia to pre-
vent voting.
Statistics put the wealth of the
United States, everything included, at
three hundred thousand million dol
lars.
Taxation assessment on New York
City's real estate is increased, this
year, more than one thousand mil
lions. The total assessed value of
New York is eleven billion and a
quarter. 1t would be impossible to
guess the total wealth of the United
States, with several cities that will
soon be bigger than New York is
now, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle,
Detroit, among others.
When old Germany finishes build
ing the big Zeppelin ordered by this
country, the great Zeppelin plant must
be dismantled and destroyed. Such
are the orders of France. A plant that
the world needs for its progress is
to be made a junk pile because it
might make machines for war It's
natural for France to maintain her
in Europe and protect
herself against numbers, while she
can. But could not France herself run
that factory, or sell the plant to be
to this country? All ma
tions share. the burden of such will
full waste.
