fl-DOY® scours (Conduct'd by National Council of tbo Boy ■ Scout* of Amorlca.l BANKERS AID SCOUT THRIFT A line of boy *cout depositors druwn up at u receiving window in charge of n boy scout teller, is h fre quent occurrence tit un Increasing number of bunks where lioy scout thrift departments nre un established feature. The thrift training of the scout program appeals to business men. uiid American bunkers lire more nnd more becoming active allies In scouting'* work for substantial citizenship. The president of a nutlonal bank of Richmond, Ya., Oliver J. Sands, says of scouting'! thrift requirements for advance In rank: “Earning and depositing u dollar in a bank before a I tenderfoot becomes a second class scout, and two dollars before lie becomes a first class scout, means thut many thousand American boys are being taught the great lesson of thrift.” A national bank in Spokane, Wash., is nn enthusiastic supporter of the movement. A neat little folder in which scouts can paste 5-cenf thrift stamps is Istued by a bank of Portland, Ore. San Francisco scouts for deposits of money earned through their own efforts receive double points in a thrift <ontest conducted by a savings bank. This institution in addition allows the hoys to make deposits at troop meetI lags. A scout’s main inspiration In saving is the ninth law which says: “A scout ! is thrifty. He does not wantonly detroy property, lie works faithfully, wastes nothing, and makes the best i m of his opportunities. He saves Ids money so that lie may pay bis own way. lie generous to those in need, and helpful to worthy objects. He may ! work for pay but must not receive tips i lor courtesies or good turns.” A BALTIMORE SCOUT ON DUTY ;; ifed ■w. Baltimore, Md., takes great interest in her scouts' citizenship training nd offers them frequent opportunities for community service. During Roys’ week 50 acted as traffic officers. Cccut William Aire, Troop 117, above, i was stationed at the busiest corner in the city. BOY SCOUTS AS LEADERS When the city of St. I.ouis, some months ago, decided to put on its safety council a corps of Junior safety cadets, it placed the responsibility of electing representatives to the formation meeting of the cadets In ttie bands int the school children. Then boy scout leadership qualities received a i tribute, for the school children elected ; the entire scout organization—approxl- | mutely 50 troops —for the important I mission. The junior safety cadets now constitute a division of the council ns strong as any of Its other divisions. It numbers a total of 3,500 boys, who • pledge themselves to watch for and stop dangerous practices among their | fellows, to report to the proper au- ! thority alt dnngerous conditions that come to their attention and to spread safety propaganda. The city also con- | ducts examinations for safety merit badges among boy scouts as part of Its safety program. LIONS DO SCOUTS GOOD TURN The Sacramento (Cal.) boy scouts are rejoicing in the gift of a weekend camp site near enough to the city so that they can easily go there for week-end camps and for training In outdoor tests. The camp site is the gift of the Sacramento Lions, who plan also to raise money enougli to erect a lodge on the grounds. SCOUTS TO SAVE GIANT DUNE A giant sand dune overlooking Grand Haven, Mich., is to be rescued by the local boy scouts from disintegration by sand blows. Seventy-five scouts passed their spring vacation working to save the dune. More than fit),(XX) poplar clippings were planted along the sides. Yearly plantings will be made until tlie brush growth controls tlie blows. It is estimated that five years’ work will be required before tlie dune is out of danger of annihilation.

The People’s Vuice _ WITH THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. Editor Democrat: It has been said that th» Scripture | is a sealed book, and it is sealed to | those who try to open it with the key! iof materialism. The Sunday school ! lesson of Sept. 30th was a review of the lessons of the previous quarter. During this timo we studied many! characters that were eventually con- j trolled by the One Overpowering Personality that Increases as the ages' roll on. There is a reason for this. For centuries the human race has been afflicted by men who have been asked to lead or by those who have usurped that authority. In follow,rg these leaders, the people have strewn their way with skeltons in every i clime, in every country, and la every: age. The human race is positively unable ,to produce a safe leader. Just a little over a decade ago, our orators were telling us that war was a thine of tlie past. They told us that civilization had taken hold of world affairs and had tied the nations together with financial and business bonds that nc. , nation would dare break. They told us that banking institutions, steam ship lines, railroad lines, telephone and telegraph lines, ocean i allies manufacturing and mining interests i and many other lesser comtnercia affairs would prove a great bulwarl that was strong enough to hold thi Demon War at arms’ length. These silver-tongued orators hai hardly stepped from their ihautauqur

platforms when the roar of the cannon drowned the sound of their voices. Again we said “All men are liars.” . Show u.s a hero worshiper and wo wil’ show a poor thinker. We can not follow men. They are failures. When it comes to building i ivillzatlon. What shall we do? We should not repeat the same old mistake of the “Dark Ages.” Our modern inventions and needs have bound us as closely to China, India, Russia, Italy or any other bloody spot of the world ns ever. Ninevah was to Samaria or Judah. An long as the qtwft- ; tion of leadership is unsettled the human race will trample around in its bloody circle. History will continue to n peat Itself. There will be r.o substantial growth. We must have some other force besides the lust of men. If we do not, we will continue to paralyze our presidents or lay the m in premature grvaes. We can fight wars hut do not know how to presiil ■ over peace. Neither does (’hir.a, Russia, Italy and many other rations. We have taken the same nt--1 Etude towards other trespassing nations that Jonah took toward ninevah. His attitude was a direct violation of ! the Divine law. Lot us quit talking 1 pomp and remember that "Pride : goeth before a fall.” n FANCY RAINCOATo. Fancy raincoats in guy colors, and with little feminine touches that redeem their severity are creating a Unified int rest in storm apparel. VELOUR HATS.
