>IXW SCOUTS: (Conducttd by National Council of th* Bov Scouts of America.) | ■ : : SCOUTS BOOST GOOD READING i — “Tbe days of the cheap and barmful novel are numbered.” So aayx a metropolitan daily in commenting an the. recent gift of SIOO,OOO to the Boy Scouts of America to Imprave the recreHtlolial reading of American boy*. Thin big effort, the first of Its kind, I* to be carried out by the mobilization, In the interests of boyhood, of the talents and services of many of i the best writer* in the country. The idea underly ing the whole plan Is to give the hoy as nearly aS possible the kind of stories he likes to read under such conditions as to make his reading wholesome as well's* interesting. and thus crowd out trashy and undesirsble literature. Already writers of national prominence have been engaged to aid In the new project. Zane Grey, who knows tlie American out-of-doors, and Arthur , Reeves, whose detective stories brought approval from the late Theodore Roosevelt, are among these authors. Douglas Fairbanks is another ‘ contributor. Tbo marvels of modern science und invention also are to he the basis of further tales snd thrills. “We have no intention of depriving the boy of literature with romance and adventure," says James E. West, chief scout execbtlve. “To, do so would deprive him of the opportunity to have i what he wants. Scouting very definitely concerns Itself In sensing what l>oys want, and then undertaking to supply It under condition* which would lie helpful for character building and citizenship training." The scout movement which exist* ns an Influence for well-directed let sure time of boy* ha*, since It* organ- : fvntion. been vitally Interested In the ! promotion of ghod Jnventle MtSrature. Inasmuch sa reading enter* so largely In the pastime of the boy.
