course.
On Wednesday, December 9, Sea
Scout training course is to be start
ed in Salisbury. This is open to all
Scouters in the lower Districts.
National Jamboree: The high point
of Scouting in 1897 will be the Ma
tional Jamboree which is to be held
in Washington, ID. c., from June 81 to
July 8. You no doubt remember that
this was to be held in 1885 and was
cancelled by the President on the eve
Of its opening because of the infantile
paralysis epidemic. From the infor-
nation we have at hand we have ev-
cry reason to expect that this coming
Jamboree will be even greater than
the one in 1885 was to have been. All
Scouts are eligible to attend provided
thye entered Scouting before January
1. 1887. What a great thing for our
boys to look forward to.
In closing let us look to the future.
In this district we are reaching only
one out of every 10 boys through
Scouting. This is far removed from
our goal of one out of every four. To
obtain this we must continue to deve-
lop greater district Consciousness in
which Scouts and Scouters alike feel
they are a member of a Troop in a
district of Council, and not just a
member of Troop in a community.
Troops must participate in district
and Council functions. More Scouts
must get to camp and, if possible, 90
to camp as Troop rather than a few
boys going nearly alone at various
times during the camp season.
The district committee must meet
regularly if we are to keep abreast
Of our district problems and eacl
Troop must be represented at these
committee meetings.
Our weakness during this past veal
has been in both recruiting new 2-yea1
old boys and in allowing our oldel
boys to drop out of Scouting. W.
must concentrate on this during 1887
Also we must continue with our train
ing program with attendance from on,
District and Troop committeeman a.
well as Scoutmasters.
Our advancement program must b.
revised and brought up to date so tina
more boys Will move from the Tender
foot ranks and attain a higher stand
ing in Scout advancement. Gu
Troop Committees must meet NOR,
regularly with their Scoutmasters ant
help them with their programs. Tn,
zone man" Troop is still to prominent
in this vicinity. In short, there mus
be a greater division of the task.
Having done these things we cal
expect to reach far more than ont
out of every 10 boys with fuller
much richer and a more interesting
Scout program,

OLD MERRILL PROPERTY
BEING DEMOLISHED

The old Merrill property is fast
being demolished to make room for
the new post office to be erected on

disappears in the march of modern

tain corporations have enjoyed a large increase in profits. And that this would be a basis for the pres ent market upswing. However, the rise in prices has extended to cor porations which still enjoy no pro- fits. Railroad shares, for instance, have risen, but the railroads show a deficit.
 Of course, stock prices are based, not on real values, but on eXpecta- tions-and immediate expectations at that. What can we hope to see the shares sell at in day, a week, a month or two or six? That is the question. If there is some force in the market pushing it up so that shares can be bought at one price with the expectation of selling them at higher price a little later, then the real value of the shares does not count.
 The important thing, therefore, is what is the force which is sending

violent and craziest bull market in history and which ended in the worst crash in Cur history. Present Rise Three
 Times as Fast as Last
 Now let us see what progress it made the first year. In twelve months the market went from 83 to 96. These were the average prices of 50 leading stocks. Here was rise of Is per cent. But the present market started at 84 and is now around 125. While the | Coolidge market rose only 13 points in its first year, this one rose Al points. While the Coolidge bull mar 1 ket in its first year went up IS per cent, this one went up 48 per cent. And the rise in industrial stocks, taken by themselves, was even larg- CT.
 Is this healthy? That is the ques- ton which is being asked on every side. And even in Wall street some brokers are wondering just how long it will last and how far it will go anu WAldV AOASC WILL NNS ~ AOA ward.
 First let us compare it with busi- ness. In April, 1895, the business in- deX-a figure marking the rate of business activity-stood at 82. One year later it was 97. It is around that figure now. There is an in- crease of 15.3 points or rise of 18.6 ,, per cent.
 While the rate of business activity was rising 18.6 per cent, the stock market was soaring 48 per cent. Why?
 Let us compare the market with employment. While factory employ ment was rising per cent, the mar ket was rising 48 per cent. Why?
 While all manufacturing produc- tion was going up about ' per cent, the market was rising 48 per cent. Why?
 It is, of course, difficult to make comparison with earnings. Earn ings have risen. But yields are not yet at the point which justifies the prices to which the market has | risen.

 Market In Long Run

The other fly, of course, is this. No matter how much you make in the market, you do not have profit until you wrap up your winnings and get out of the market. But, alas, if you once win you WILL NEVER STAY OUT.
 Now let us see what has happened to the market. For one thing, It started up a year ago-April, 1885 and has been rising more or less persisently ever since. That is ex- traordinary. Few persistent rises have been so long drawn out.
 In the next place the rise has been heavy. It is interesting to'com- pare this with the beginnings of the last great bull market ir the early days of MT. Coolidge's administra- ton. There had been an unhealthy upward sweep in business in 1922. But all through 1923 business moved down. But toward the end of the year the stock market moved up. There is story that the late George F. Baker sitting in J. P. Morgan's office at that time, said to Morgan:
