 Lost aeat s2 boys and men sat down to a father and SOD dinner at the Baranof Hotel The crowd large even for that capacous dining room con- sisted of Boy Scouts and their fathers It was gathefine of good fellows, the best there are, and very evidently everyone there was happy to be just where be vas
 Alaska hos 28 Boy Scout troops, some of them separated almost 1000 miles from the next The APO Scouts in Alaska are more than the Territory ever had before u lact e number is increasing steadily, but t is not by any means enough.
 One or the best testimonials 10 the character of Boy Scouting IS the fact that the organization has been banned in Germany. Italy and Russia In almost every other country n the world however, Scouting .hrives The Boy scouts of America have brothers under-the-skin m China Africa and India. As an international tic between the youth of all nationali tics races cIeeds and political beliefs except Fascsm -and conmunsn} Scouting is of nestimable value
 But Scouting does much more than bind the boys of all nations together in bonds of common interest Its emphasis is on developing character and self reliance in the individual boy Scout learns a Thousand valuable little skis which combine to let him take csre of himself like a woodsman in the woods and like gentleman in his everyday city life.
 Scouts oath to be physically strong mentally awake and morally straight has done untold good for two whole generations of boys already. The l2 laws which it is every Scouts aim to live up to always are that he should be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly courteous, kind obedien cheerful thrifty, brave clean and reverent Multiply these principles by million and the value of Boy Scouting to the world is obvious
 Alaska is a grand country for Boy Scouts. Outing, the saving is is three-fourths of Scouting. Nowhere else in the world are there such excellent facilities close al hand fer getting into the real wilderness. Juueaus Boy Scouts late this month will begin their annual encapment the Scout cabin at Eagle River, g setting ideal for spending two weeks outdoors.
 Juneau should have Scouts The boys are willing but the difficulty is in finding trained and willing men leaders for them. Scoutmasters and other officials in the movement serve without pay. Their abundant reward is in contributing to the lives of many boys opportunity to take part in great and hOnored movement
 Scouting deserves the support of every community in America Juneau along with the others Juneau and America will be the gathers in the long run for the boys of today will be the citizens of tomorrow and they will be better citizens for having been Boy Scouts.

 Accidents may be unusually mum erous in coming months. Hazards of transportation will be extensive in many parts of the country.
 New York City comes under a sway most promising for exposi- tions, conventions and meetings The summer is to be profitable in business. Many public celebrations will divert the people.
 This is a favorable date for social affairs, for theaters and for bands or orchestras. Whatever contributes to the gayety of the nation is sub feet to good influences.
 For the young this planetary gov- ernment promises real romances Love affairs should blossom under this rule of the stars which in- spires deep and lasting sentiment.
 Mexico may benefit under the culmination of Jupiter. There is a sign read as presaging wise con- sessions in dealing with alien prop erty-owners.
