WEEKS BEST GOOD TURNS

A finger, a fish-hook and Scout
first aid formed the triangle that
figured in a recent drama in Holly
Junction, w. Va
In little cottage at the Junction,
near the camp of the Clarksburg
Scouts, lay sick mother, who had
recently travelled from the hospital
while still in a critical condition in
order to be at home with her family.
The second day after the mothers
arrival, while she was resting quietly,
her two sons got out their angling
equipment and started off to do a
little fishing. They had journeyed
but short distance when one of the
boys ran a fishhook into his left in
dex finger They returned home I'M
mediately, and their mother, weak
from her illness, seeing the injured
bow and his blood-stained clothes.
sank into a faint. After securing
aid for their mother the boys found
themselves facing desperate situ-
alton. The injured finger was throb-
bing horribly, every evidence fore
boding trouble The nearest doctor
lived four miles away The last train
to the doctors town had gone. The
boys father as a last resort had
gone to the station agent to request
him to place his gasoline car on the
tracks and to take the suffering boy
to the physician.
At this crisis appeared Scout Hell
mer Nelson, hiking toward camp a
little in advance of his party See
ing the boys plight, Nelson called
to Scout Chief Hemeyer, who with
first-aid in hand came running to the
rescue. Surgical instruments were
quickly produced and sterilized and
the operation proceeded "It was a
marvellous piece of work." stated an
onlooker "After the hook was re-
moved, the Scout man poured iodine
on the wound and bandaged it. Six
days later the finger was completely
healed, and the lad enjoyed many
days of fishing"

Saunders English Marriage

Fred Saunders of this city and
Miss Minnie English of San Angelo,
Texas, were quietly married in Hol-
brook Monday by Judge J. E. Crosby,
the marriage coming as a genuine
surprise to their friends. The couple
slipped out of Winslow Monday
morning completely eluding their un-
suspecting friends, and no one knew
that the ceremony had taken place
until they returned to Winslow that
evening.
The bride has been in this city
about eight months, coming from
her home in Angelo, Texas, where
her relatives reside. Mr.. Saunders,
who is a conductor on the Santa
Fe, has lived here for about fifteen
years, all this time being connected
with the railway. ?
Mr.. and Mrs. Saunders will be at
home to their friends at 307 Kinsley
avenue after February Is. The latter
is now visiting relatives at Needles,
Mr.. Saunders running between Win
slow and that city.

evening, February 5.
Consisting of five people the jubi-

company, Mr.. and Mrs. Mason travel

company puts on an old fashioned
jubilee program, but is not to be
confused with the cheap barn storm

of the best companies on any lyceum

Sponsors Scout Troops


Winslow ROtarians are to have
Troop 2 of the local Boy Scout or,
ganization. President Tom signed
the troop application on Wednesday
giving Winslow their second troop
of Scouts. Charles Daze,. chairman
of the Boys Work committee is to
assume the role of chairman of the
Troop committee with R. M. Buch-
man and Homer Vaughn as other
members. ]. A. Barstow of Babbitt
Bros. grocery department is to be the
scoutmaster. Mr. Barstow is taking
a very active part in helping the
boys of Winslow, and it is certain
that Scouting under his direction will
advance in a very creditable manner.
About 20 boys have expressed their
enthusiasm and Winslow Rotary
club will be proud of it's troop.
Mexican Scout Troop Organized
The Spanish speaking boys of our
town are going to have a creditable
troop of Scouts. Scout executive
Mccormick completed the organiza
tion of the troop yesterday. Rapheal
Estrades, teacher at the Southside
school is leading the boys as scout
master. Frank Gallegos, P. E. Rubi,
and Nestor Baca, merchants of Win
slow are sponsoring the troop. At
present ten boys have completed
their work and have been admitted
to the troop. Within the next two
weeks another class of Is boys will
enjoy the thrill of being eligible to
wear the Scout badge Scouting
appeals to these boys, for it is full
of action and that is what real boys
want. Mr.. Estrada is taking a great
deal of interest in the troop; for
which he deserves much credit. 1t
is certain that our city will be bene-
fitted by his efforts.
Due to the fact that the Wash
ington school auditorium was taken
for basketball practice, the Boy
Scouts met this week in one of the
class rooms at the high school, MAX
ing it necessary to dispense with
the usual games.
The program of the evening con-
sisted of lessons and practical demon
strations in signaling and in the use
of the compass. Fred Gillard, Will
liam Ward and Dick Trimble were
the stars in signaling and each is
very proficient in sending and re-
ceiving in the International telegra
phic code Charles Mccormick, the
new scout executive, was present at
the meeting.
A boy who has learned Scouting
and the Scout laws and is trying
faithfully to live up to them, will
make an excellent citizen. Every
one of the laws are rules that the
grown-ups could follow with profit.
The fifth law is: "a Scout is
courteous. He is polite to all, especi-
ally to women, children, old people,
the weak and the helpless. He must
not take pay for being helpful or
courteous"

musicians among modern races.
Song is to them the very soul of
life; it is an ever present companion;
it is helper in toll, pastime in
idleness, a comforter in times of
sorrow. The Mason Jubilee singers
are masters of the folk songs of
the southern plantation and will give
a program of this highly entertain
ing lore on next Tuesday evening at
the Washington school auditorium.
Winslow people cannot afford to
miss the jubilee number, in fact no
one can afford to miss any of the
numbers of the Deluxe circuit, which
is the best lyceum entertainment that
has been given here in long time.
The Mason Jubilee Singers will give
a program which will be worth much
more to you than the price of admis-
sion. Attend this number and you
will get the lyceum habit.
