AT THE time, he says, he was star

Just then fire engine raced by.
Everybody rushed out of stores,
streamed along in its wake - except
Harold, the crystal-gazer and an
actor named John Lane O'Connor.
Amazed at seeing boy ignore fire
engine, O'Connor, stopped to watch
Harold. They talked. O'Connor
asked him if he'd like to be an actor.
II sure would" said Harold. In a
matter of hours he was emoting as

Since then he's made 500 movies,

patrol leaders.
Under finance, it was revealed,
that, also for the first time in
local Scouting history, not only
was budget prepared but funds
for same were actually collected.
This budget was one of the major
factors that contributed to the ex-
cellent overall record made by
the local scouting movement this
year.
Because of the 100 percent in
crease IN the ranks Of local scout
ing this year, the budget for 1916
was doubled in an effort TO equal
the record OF 1915.
All reports made during the
evening revealed the fact that
although the 1915 record was ex-
cept;Onally good under the war
time conditions, now with the
war over local scouting will go
ahead to break all of its former
records, including those before
the war.
