RURAL BOY SCOUTS

Good progress is being made in a num-
Der of states in the extension of scouting &C
Invites to the rural districts, through the
training of Lone Scouts who are unable to
meet frequently with their fellows for group
exercises.
At present there are sc merit badges
awarded for subjects suitable for the farm
boys pursuit, such as fire fighting on the
farm or adjacent forests, tree culture, bird
protection, cleanup programs and many
others.
One more practical and useful piece of
work recommended is the preparation of cab
inets containing first aid kits for use in case
of injury to persons or animals. At each
home where Boy Scout has such cabinet
a sign is placed, so that passers-by may
know that in case of accident first aid may
be obtained there.
The Boy Scout organization is directing
these Lone Scouts through special depart
ment of rural scouting, which provides a
program diversified enough to meet the needs
of any boy, no matter how remote the local
ity in which he lives.
This movement is most worthy and
beneficial one, deserving of all encourage
ment and cooperation by parents and teach
ers.
