Scoutin1 Who'· Who ------"Lefty" Steffens led the prize - ·Look Ahead a .Few Years and imagine the value of a homesite on Lake Michigan-within easy distance of the city and accessible to all the many advantages of ·the ·North Shore. Deere Park is the "last stand" of lake locations of equal desirability. Its beauties are beyond words, its .values beyond estimate. Private· beach--private park-abundant foliage-winding streets-all improvements in and paid for-many of the best people already occupying homes here, or building. A few · of the choice lots-some as low as $ 1 20 per front .foot-are still left.

His first connection with the Scouts was when he became a member of Troop 4 of Aurora, 111., in 1912 and since then he has maintained an active interest in the movement. . Last vear he undertook the btg job of organizing two troops ; the Charle'3 Dawes, Troop 21, of Evanston meeting next door to the home ~f the Vice President, and Troop 3 of Wilmette, meeting at the Methodist church. Both of the troops are very successful and reflect much credit upon the man who supervised their organization. I thing about the splendid work that L. F. Ball is doing a'3 instruc- T isn·t necessary to say any- Moat Casualties Among the Audience in Bout Mr. Leach gave the boys of Troop 4 of Wilmette a new stunt at the last meeting. Each of two Scouts was given a boxing glove and was blindfolded. After being turned around and around each one tried to find and sock the other one, scoring 1 point for each hit. In the Craig Stoddard-Karl Meaker bout, Karl won 4 to 1. Karl tried to box a po.st and Craig vented . his ambition on the audience, downing one boy with a chance snap to the solar plexus. -Craig Soddard, A.P.L., Beaver Patrol Seven Scouts of Troop & Pau Second CLiu Teats There are at least nine Scouts up for test passing at each meeting of Troop 6 of Wilmette~ At the Jast meeting seven boys passed their second class tests; three were admitted as fullfledged Tenderfeet and three passed first class tests.
