BOY SCOUTS

Dictator countries have stressed
their youth movements as a part
of their combined force for
strength. Here in this country we
hav a group of youths that are
called Boy Scouts, that represent
an order whose aims and purpose
is to build character, prepare Tor
citizenship, instruct in ways of
scouting and dedicate lives Of
American boys to accept response
bilities of tolerance and brother
hood. This is our youth movement
and one of which we in Kennewick
are very proud. We have watched
it grow and are happy to salute
its name and its laws. They are
worthy of your reading time, these
Scout laws. They stress the prin-
ciples of manhood that make a
nation living thing and not a
piece of property. The boys who
have graduated from the ranks
of scouts into the mature field of
soldiers are serving this country
better for having had experience
in the Boy Scout organization.
They are fighting on all fronts,
while those who are still back
home in the Boy Scout troops are
serving well in their active con-
tribution to the war effort as they
collect aluminium, paper, fats, dis
tribute bond posters, sell war
stamps and many more such serv-
ices. AS the Boy Scouts celebrate
