Worlds Scout Jamboree
Son of Mr. and Mrs r: c. S. Davis Reports Wonderful
Time in Holland With M any Thousand Scouts From
Various Countries; vi sits Points of Interest

+, dicitis but no other serious illness oc-
| Cured.
! There were no scouts from Russia
, Germany or Italy, Ehese countries
each have a youth movement of their
own which-is not international.
AS in Washington, many noted per-
sons attended the Jamboree. Queen
Wilhelmina opened the Jamboree and
spoke in English to the scouts. Beside
the Queen, Lord Baden-Fowell found
err of the scouts, 80 years old. Amer
lean Chief Scout James e. West had
place of honor also.
The foreign scouts were interested
in the American scouts, especially
the Indians with their cOlorful tur-
bans. The Americans were interested
in the Polish with their flowing caps,
the French with their sticks adorned
with red, white and blue flowers, and
the wonderful Hungarian Boy Scout
band. The Japanese and Chinese Boy
Scouts were reported as very friendly.
The American boys from the west
gave very popular camp fire per-
Torrance of Indian war dances in
costume, and the Texas scouts gave
an exhibition with the lariat.
The World Jamboree newspaper
was printed in three languages, Eng
lish, French and Dutch.
Johnny reports a wonderful time
but he thinks nothing could equal the
National Jamboree held in Washing
ton for comfort and pleasure.
Before and after the Jamboree
Johnny visited places of interest in
England, France, Germany and Swift
zerland.
The returning scout is the popular
son of Mr.. and Mrs. r. G. S. Davis,
