The Bow Scouts

It is good for such movements as the Boy Scouts to
rise up out OF the rut Of routine at times and engage in
activities on q large scale. It tends to put new vigor not
only into the practices Of the organization or cause. but
into the ideals which inspire them.
The celebration Of the scouts twentieth anniversary
this week is an instance Of firing the enthusiasm Of q
good cause. It also is bound to have q favorable reac-
ton on the public, which does not get In touch suffi-
GENTLY with the scout movement to appreciate its val
liable influence on the youth OF the nation.
No other movement among boys is as fruitful OF good
for the future citizenship and in boy character building
as the scouts. 1t is modern knighthood applied to youth.
The discipline OF its outdoor and camping stunts is prac-
tical training, which begcts self reliance and manual
skill, while its scout oath Of honor has been found to
possess the highest ethical value in moral discipline.
All the organizations, composed Of churches and ser.
city should make use of this week to impress on them
the interest they feel in the progress Of each little band.
They are part Of that boy army of ly6O0.000 the world
over, among So nations, with $4,000 in the Northwest, al
animated by those principles which make so splendidly
what has been enumerated as character, energy. worthy
ambition and physical sturdiness.
Il is a duty Of encouragement the sponsors owe as
well to Judges Nuesslc and Christianson and Scout Di-
rector w. G. Fulton, who give so patiently OF their time
to lead the movement. They and all like them, giving
service to the movement, arc likewise deserving Of the
reward Of appreciation.

The Truly Civilized Man
(St. Louis Post ispatch)

(St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
William Lyon Phelps has defined 1.-THE truly civilized
man. in Scribner's and has called the roll-Benjamin
Franklin. Plato, Aristotle, Julius Caesar, .Mcntaigne,
John Selden, Goethe, Turgenev. We are asked to Job
serve that all these individuals were citizens Of the
world; their urbanity and tolerance were accompanied
by an unquenchable intellectual curiosity. They had
spacious minds. unconscious Of national boundaries, free
from narrow prejudices; you cannot imagine any one OF
them wearing a campaign button"
Our delightful "lookeron in Vienna" explains his
choice Of Franklin as the noblest Roman of them all.
Were Poor Richard to return to his beloved Philadel-
phia he would look upon a world Of taxis. troneys, sub
ways, limousines and ~arplanes which his mortal eyes
had never seen and within a week would be thoroughly
at home, within q year would win the Box prize as the
city's first citizen and in two years would have per-
suaded the United States to join the League Of Nations.
And it might also be ventured that, after focusing his
differing monocle on the 1929 model Philadelphia
Quakeress, the gallant Benjamin would Immediately
negotiate an indefinite leave of absence from his
present Elysium.
None of us will quarrel with this selection Of, say,
the first gentlemen of history. And all Of US will hope
that, after reading the "copy," the editor Of Scribner's
wired congratulations. But some of US will wonder
why Prof. Phelps omitted Leonardo do Vinci from civil
~ization's creme de Ia creme.
