FATHERS AND SONS TO HAVE BIG TIME AT LOGALYJ.G.A.
Plans for Father and Son week at the "Y" are progressing rapidly. Through letters to all the pastors of the county, Mr. Wilson Is hoping to obtain a like observance of this week throughout the county. He has sent out programs suggesting that things be done simultaneously. Father and Son banquets will be held at all the churches Friday night, Nov. 19. On Sunday each Father Is urged to take his son to church. Last week during the vacation jubilee at the "Y" the swimming pool was a popular feature. It rivalled the old swimming hole in its attractiveness. Over 400 boys took advantage of its possibilities and had a good swim. Annual Hi-Y Halloween Party Next Monday the annual Hi-Y Halloween party will be given at the Y. M. C. A. Last year 280 boys
and girls attended this party and
had a big time. Pumpkin pie, cider and apples will e served. One of the star attractions will be the "Chamber of Horrors." If half
the reported plans are worked out, it will be a gruesome spectacle. . Don't miss it. The decorating be
gan on Saturday and the "Y" is a maze of orange and black. The
entire first and second floors will
be used for the party. The com
iiuuees are worKing naru, ana a very pleasant time is - promised.
Remember, the admission is by ticket only. The tickets are thirty-
nve raus, including a Doy and a
girl.
Fifty-two, charter members were given the Ili-Y ritual at the first
meeting. It was a splendid meet
ing, run of real Hi-Y spirit. The new members henceforth will be
required to take the full initiation. Mr. Harold Little gave a fine talk to the boys. It was decided at the meeting that every member would be compelled to wear his Hi-Y pin whenever in public. He will be questioned at odd times, so must be on his guard and be prepared to show his pin. This organization stands for Christian character and lays particular stress on clean lives, clean speech, clean morals; and clean athletics. The next meeting will be a regular meeting, to be held Nov. 6th. The discussion as to the length of the meeting ended by fixing the time at 7 o'clock p. m., and to last one hour.

indoor, with appropriate speeches
and ceremonials, the planting of memorial trees, the dedication of
scout cabins, and so forth. As
usual the emphasis will be placed
by the leaders not only on fittingly
memorializing the man who con
formed so closely to the scout ideal of manhood, "physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight," dedicated to God and country, but also on the responsi
bilities of citizenship, which belong
to boys as well as to men. As James E. West, Chief Scout Executive, wrote recently to scout leaders all over the United States in urging this national observance of the anniversary "The two thoughts animating the demonstrations are, firnt, to do honor and to keep alive the memory of a great American and a Rood Scout, who kept the Scout Oath and Law himself; and, secondly, to Inspire Scouts and the public generally with a desire to be better citizens, remembering that 'such as
these have lived and died.'" The celebration has the endorsement of the Roosevelt family and of the Rosevelt Memorial association, local branches of which organization will cooperate in many cases with scout council i in observing the day. Great Enthusiasm Is Exhibited Reports coming in from the field in answer to a questionnaire sent .out from the national council headquarters indicate an even greater enthusiasm and more extensive
observance than in previous years. I
