LEWIS HART AIDS
 BOY SCOUT DRIVE
Patent Button Official En= dorses Campaign for
 New Camp Site

Lewis J. Hart of the Patent But ton Company heartily endorsed the present Boy Scout campaign for $27, 400 for budget expenses and the purchase and development of a new camp site in letter sent to Council President Walter Fl. Deacon this morning.
 His letter follows: Dear MT. Deacon:
 I want to thank you for asking me to serve on the sponsoring com- mittee for the annual Boy Scout Campaign to raise the annual budg- ct and the drive for an additional sum for the new camp site. I shall be glad indeed to have you use my name.
 I firmly believe that Scouting is about the most important activity for the young, and feel that it de- serves generous support from the public to raise the amount of the budget. The council also merits generous support in the campaign for funds to purchase and develop a new camp site which is greatly needed to help the Scout Movement in Waterbury.
 With best of luck in the cam- paign.
 Sincerely,
 LEWIS J. HART.

these various capacities he served some eleven years.
 Appointed Secretary
 In 1927 he was appointed divi- Sional secretary for the northern New Jersey division, but after a year or two was brought back to New York and was secretary for de- velopment of band and songster brigades throughout the entire east ern territory, consisting of eleven states. In this capacity, he was re- sponsible for the musical develop ment of the Army's program and was well known throughout the eastern territory for the exceptional success he had in this respect.
 In October of 1883, he was ap- pointed divisional secretary for the northern Ohio division and since that time has served in that section of the Army's activities, leaving a splendid record of achievement. He come to southern New England, be- ing promoted to the appointment of divisional officer for the Southern New England division, with headuar- ters at Hartford. He is a compara- lively young man for this distinct recognition and judging from past experiences, we know that the Army's work is going forward under his leadership.
 Famous Family
 Mrs. Major Arkett is well known in Army circles, for her enthusiasm and ability to propagate the Army's cause. She is member of the fa-
