to constructive ends.
The Part the Boys Play
The program stresses hiking,
overnight camps, winter and sum-
mel camping, an understanding Of
nature and life in the open. 200s-
900 scouts attended organized
camps last summer under trained
leadership. This activity alone
builds up a sturdy boyhood. AL Of
the boys thoughts and actions are
based upon the code Of conduct
known as the Scout Oath and Law,
which q boy must promise to OBJ
serve before he becomes a scout.
The daily "Good Turn" by a Boy
Scout creates in his heart a spirit
OF kindness and service to others.
Community Good Turns have been

even the nation itself.
RESPONSIVENESS and Leadership

Our Own Community
Every citizen in this community,
man, woman, and youth, may well
give earnest heed to what is being
done and what can be done

They can well afford to devote

every possible way to encourage
the Boy Scout workers to do still
greater work, to reach out for
more boys and to produce for each
community more men Of character,

citizenship.
