TO recount the figures recently

leading money winner with a total
of $4,000. Greentree Stable was
the runner-up, with 13 wins, 8 Sec

Among the horses, one of last

VAUDEVlLLE's GREATEST

What act was vaudeyille's greatest attraction?
None other than Harry Houdni, The Handcuff
King. Some Of the escapes Houdni staged for
publicity purposes were better than his act. For
example, his escape from packing box tossed
into river. Also his escape after being thrown
into river heavily shackled Also his getting out
Of strait jacket and his many escapes after being
locked in supposedly escape proof cells. Nobody
has ever been able to successfully initiate Hou.

Houdini's thumbs behind his back and then bet
thousand dollars the Handcuf King couldn't
get out Of the knot Houdini wouldn't try it.

SCOUTlEG-A WAY OF
 LIVINGi

If we are going to guide the boy, we must know to what goals we want to guide him. !H =.
 Someone has asked; How much can the boy be changed?" Who would want 10 change hirn-tfe tousled-headed, noisy, fun-loving, vigorous follower of our foot steps? Would we, if we could, have him quiet, subdued, ser riolls? Never How much can he grow? That is different. .
 Scouting's aim for boys growth and boys development has been repeatedly stated as character building and citizenship training.
 Let us get these aims clearly in mind for there are still plenty of us who, while we seem to accept them, conduct Scouting as fl the actual objectives were the teach ing of subject matter, the award ing of badges, the making of Eagle Scouts, the development of well-drilled troop organizations.

ALL MUST COOPERATE!

Perhaps you are one of many who have more money today.
 And perhaps you have strong desires to spend it on things you've always wanted, and couldn't because of pinched circumstances heretofore.
 Well, yesterday, all the money you had you could spend as you wished. But, today, there is much less to buy, much more money in the hands of the public.
 In order to curb price-jlmping, all must cooperate to the fullest, because we can't spend today as we would like.
 If everybody would make a mad scramble for the present supplies which ar eextremely low, high prices, black markets, etc, would be the order of the day
 So we may as we'll say the money we have today is really not all ours to do with as we choose. But we must, in order to assist in the main problems today, buy War Bonds; give to the Red Cross; buy insurance; put in saving bank; but don't spend it!
 That is the only way we can pay for this war.

NEW PATTERNS FOR AMERICA?

A soldier writes: What do they mean, fusSing around about what kind of an America we servicemen want when we get home? Do they value America as something that can be changed with the seasons, the same as wonen's hats and clothes?
 We can't escape the notion here that some people back home are trying to fashion new patterns for America-run- ming around with tape-measures, shears, chalk and things, and quarreling among themselves as to what style of a tailor made country will please us after the war.
 ''You tell these self-appointed design CTS to let Uncle Sam alone When we get back, we want to see his swallow-tail coat still there, and his boot-straps tall hat and everything else that's familiar. His way of dressing has been all right for a ong time. It's what we're fighting r keep all right for long time to come. Leave him be. Just have him there to say Hello when we return-dressed the way we know him.

 Our job is 10 get the boy to build HABITS; to practice those traits so nobly set forth in the Scout Laws that they will become traits of his conduct as boy and SC form his character as a man.
 We must get him to have the right attitudes inside himself to- ward helpfulness, courtesy and others attitudes favorable to- wards those things which society has found right and attitudes un- favorable towards those things fsociety hastfound wrong. 
 The only way we can help him to develop this conduct, these at- ftitades, is by ACTUAL PRAC4 T4CE IN LIFE'S SITUATIONS By giving him opportunity for ! vigorous social living under wise guidance. Let us not think ot Scouting as program of activities buf as a way of living.

SERIES OF COURSES

II is significant that the de-
mand for the educational course
came from the labor-manage-
mcnt group, not from the man
agement itself. The pr yram
was worked out and directed by
the board of managers made up
of employees. The series of
courses have now become a
regular part of the permanent
activities of the enterprise.
Factory and office are repre-
scented among employe-StudentS
on a pro rata basis. Junior eX-
ecutiVes are leaders Of the dis
cusSion groups which follow the
formal weekly lectures.
The objective IS better en-
ployer-e m p loye relationships.
This is accomplished by broaden
ing the outlook OF employees
toward the economic problems
of the employer.

yond the first experimental
