This Is Scout Week and local troops

Scouts, by attending services at their
churches in uniform. Monday was

Homemaking plays a great part in
the life of the Girl Scout. Scouts

Home" in Washington which serves as
the National Little House. Much at
tention is given to the Identification of
the home as well as skill as a home
maker.
Thrift is one of the Girl Scout laws.
It gives the Scout chance to show her
practical knowledge of money. Wise
budgeting, marketing, saving, spending
and sharing with others is always
stressed.
Citizenship is always practiced, not
only on this day of each year. Being
interested in ones city, service to ones
community, good booster for all that
is fine and good in their town" is the
thought that each Scout holds through
out the year.
Girl Scouts stress the idea of health
through happiness-play in the open.
There are seven proficiency badges that
stress the great importance of good
health.

WAR WILL PROBABLY
END SOON ACCORDING
TO ARTHUR BRISBANE.

Rumors from the Italian front and
from the diplomatic circles of
Europe bring the growing confiden-
tial spirit that the ItalO- Ethiopian
dispute will be short lived and that
Europe will not be thrown into
another major conflict, Arthur Bris-
bane, noted editor-analyst states in
his "This Week" column appearing
in the Miner today.
The wise British have known all
along that war was not imminent,
Brisbane believes, but have made a
show of their military power to de-
monstrate that they are prepared to
quell any serious outbreaks.
This item is just one of the in
teresting inside sidelights you get
from reading Brisbane each and
every week. Other subjects covered
by the well-know, commentators
column today are: the increase in
automobile sales as a barometer of
prosperity, the oil-buying policies of
Walter Teagle, the influx of gold
into America, and Damon Runyon's
views on the gambling vice.
