The important thing about a Scout is that he must be something. Kot ability alon~ nor knowledge alone, hut ability and knowledge coupled up with the right spirit is the aim of Scouting. Scouting came to America 18 vears ago because America needed to ~ob ilizc her hovhood toward a richer manhood. In those f~.:w short Years the Scout program has come he used 1>\· more and more churches and s~hool as their program for the den:lopmcnt of their boys. · Scouting has grmn1 by leaps and bounds and has enrolled in its membership seyeral millions of men and boys.

Scouting is not a not her institution or organization with buildings and equipment. It is rather a program available for the use of every institution already existing in the community. Protestant, Catholic and ] ewish churches, public and private schools in city and country and among all colors and races, find Scouting a program which they can use under their own leadership in enriching the lives of their own bovs. It is NOT sori1ething that we may employ a man to do, because Scout· ing is a team-work program in which many men have a part. These men· give to boyhood the sc-rt of leadership that cannot be employed. Big men give themselves as ?cout volun.teers in the service of the1r commumty and their nation. CHARLES E. JARVIS, C.
