 Your white people seem very smart and make our laws but they help only a few. You make intoAi- eating liquors. This girl got into had company but they were not her own people.

EXPLAINS
 SCOUT WORKS AIM |
Organizations Reach Less Than
 Half Boys in City

Boy Scouts and the work the Scout organization is doing in New Britain formed the general theme of an address delivered today by Oscar Erickson. scout executive. at the meeting of the New Britain Eo- tary club. Mir. Erickson pointed out in his address that between the churches. Y. M C. A., Junior Achievement. Boys club and Boy Scouts less than half Of the 7.ooO boys in New Britain arc being reached.
 Mir. Erickson spoke as follows:
 Scouting is a going and growing hoys program throughout the world. Forty countries submitted figures as of year ago showing 1,6so.ooo members. More than S00,o00 Of these are enrolled in tho Boy Scouts of America. Such g growth in IS years is astounding and has quick ened tho active interest of Americas biggest business men which has helped and will mean even greater strides in growth in the coming years. The president of the Boy Scouts of America is Walter w. Head of St. Louis who is called upon by our country to accept posi- tions of trust both in regard to na- tional but also international banking and trade problems. He travels thousands of miles during the year to attend to his duties aS chairman of the executive board and on this board are many men outstanding in national life who are sold to their jobs through being sold 10 the place scouting has in the making of future citizens Of character. The late James J. Storrow well known financial figure also gave freely Of his valuable time and ability in shaping the policy Of growth and expansion of the movement. Like Elijah Of old who left his job 10 Elisha so he left his mantle 10 his young business associate Charles F. Cotting of Eos ton who is carrying on.
 Owe Debt to Rotarians

confidence of the boy and to whom tho boy will come and frankly talk over those matters which his age is making him inquisitive about. And this is to be expected where the average American dad Is so pressed and harassed with his many duties not only those connected with blsi- ness, but social and fraternal obli- gations. He has neither the time nor the patience to be real father. Mothers influence is good up to q certain period when . man is needed.
 The schools upon which millions Of dollars are expended yearly, can not command the whole interest Of the boy. Take in our own case for example. how many times when in class session while we were recit- ing, sxs equals 72 our thoughts were far away. We were thinking only Of how many more minutes before we could get out Of the old school and get down with the gang to play a game of ball or go swimming.
 ''Tt is our restless muscles cray ing action. However, schools have improved vastly now making proyi- sion for physical and vocational lines of action, which is going to make boy think with pleasure in later life of his school years. But it is fact that our school does not command the whole interest of the boy.
 ''Thc church is improving in mak- ing it's contact on the life of the boy. That contact can be improved when the real leaders in every com- munity will be more willing to be- come active elements in the churches Of their faith. The more such men there are, the larger the number of boys who will be attract cd and led into eventual church membership. The church of today has a. real challenge to the boys of today, and that challenge must be interpreted by a. real he man, If it is 10 meet with response on the part of our boys, and men also. And I can say from actual observation, that the spiritual challenge finds a readier response on the part of boys who have been or are scouts and through the scouting program have learned 10 feel the presence Of a di- vine power manifested in nature.
 And now a word as to scoutinE's share in developing the whole life of the hoy. There is not a dad who has not heard his boy of s, 9, 10 and ii say Gee. dad, I wish [ was old enough to be scout And many a mother uses this longing and desire, in her guidance and discipline of the lad. And when he gets into scout ing and he puts on that uniform, and he takes the oath and law. and receives his tenderfoot badge, you hardly recognize him. He seems to have changed so. There is another personality there. A personality which gives promise of that future

FIRES AND STORM DO MUCH DAMAGE
Southern California Reports

man he will become. And his daily good tusn-what . kick hs gets put Of doing that. And pretty soon 1t is . habit and hs is doing his little deeds of kindness without . second thought, and n . matter of course. just doing his scout duty. And 70 far for two. three. four or five years scouting is making its contri- button in developing the whole life of the boy in cooperation with the church. the home and tho school.
 After Elect Of Scouting
 And what was said of the need of real men in the church is true in scouting. Scouting will carry over into life and help make for a whole life only as our scout leaders can carry on the boys interest so that he acquires knowledge and insight in the world in which he lives. This man contact is a vital necessity, and we as a council must have your help in securing that type of leadership so that our scouts in greater num- bers become an active force for good in our business and civic struc- turc.
 Scouting is doing its job we'll. It has an efficient organization, a very small budget demand. because it has no large building to maintain. but functions through a small office and with a small paid staff. It's volun- teer leadership is improving in aual- ity. It has boys program which is attractive to practically every boy. However. there are some men who. despite this sonndness and at tractiveness of scouting, have re- mained doubling Thomases. If there are any such here may I quote Dr. Hart of the national council staff who said: The man who is not up on a thing is likely to be down on it, and then has very nicely said: When in doubt-be generous That attitude we have a. right to expect Of every business and professional man in the country, because scouting has sold itself to our country in the brief space of IS years through it's record of accomplishment"
 President A. IT. Scott of the Ro- tary club appointed the following committee to make arrangements for tho New Britain delegation to the International Rotary conference at Minneapolis next June: F.. W. Bennett, J. w. Marsland and F. C. Russell.

1927 is due to your own president who is also our president.
 While this growth is our duty as a. council we and the other OrEani- cations arc far from occupying the field. In our 26 troops we arc touching the lives of close to coo boys. All boys work organizations in our city arc reaching only about 1000 out of nearly 1000 potential members. We are not supported by city, state or national government and are growth is in the hands Of the people in the community who furnish the funds. When the com munity chest makes it's appeal. meet it as you do the request for raise on the part Of a tried and trusted employee who has delivered the goods.
 Scouting is big business. Do you G0o,oo0 was contributed in cam- paigns for scouting? This reveals a story of public belief in the scout ing program and it's contribution to our boy life. Millions of people have seen scouting produce the goods and the support will grow rather than diminish. The scout program has a valuable contribution to make in de- >elopinG a whole life. if 1 may use that plrasing rather than develop ing the boy

You men who have built up a busi- ness organization which has a fine reputation take natural pride in your handiwork. We have seen men stand and look lovingly at ma chine which is of their creation. It represents a purposeful accomplish ment. a. product of muscle and brain.'
 We arc seriously concerned what our DOyS OI jS are 0OlIlS. we know that we can account for them so many hours each day in school. so many at home. 80 many at play, so many al church or Sunday school during the week. etc. We recognize that all have their share in motivat- ing the life of tho boy. Thi, mo tivation is to turn out a real per sonality with good instincts and de- sires. purposeful. clear thinking. and with all that goes to make life attractive and of service.

fore hundreds of their friends.
Both were dressed in dark clothes
in keeping with their years,
although the costume of each, here
and there, was spark of youthful
color. They stood erect and slIant
before the Rev. Bernard Braskamp
as he read the earlier part of the mar
riage ceremony, but the groom re-
quired the arm of his best man, A. J.
Dewey, as the couple entered the
sanctuary to repeat their VOWS.
Mary Walton attended the bride.
The Rev. A. A. McCallum read
the marriage pledges, the bride
and groom repeating the words in
voices TOO low to be heard outside
the sanctuary.
As the march down the aisle
began, to the strains of the church
organ, most of the witnesses Of the
ceremony gathered outside the
church to Join the scores alraady
waiting there.
After few moments in the
church office. Mr.. Works and his
bride came out TO face the cheers
and applsu use OF friends and the
clicking of several cameras.
The cameras did not please the
bride, whose blonde hair showed
bright from under her hat. Behind
her spectacles. Mrs. Works eyes
snapped.
''Thank you," said the photog.

you're not welcome" said Mrs.
Works.
A recent illness had enfeebIed the
groom, who leaned heavily upon n
cane. There was no rice-throwing,
no iH-timed attempts to throw CON
fetti on the happy couple. They
were led to a waiting automobile
and went hack to the home for the
AGED, where a reception awaited
them.
Mr.. Works was the only male in
mate ~ the home when he first
knew Mrs. Travis. The marriage
was the elimination OF q fiVe.year
