Community Leaders Pay Tribute Officials of the Northshore Area Council in looking ahead to the comâ€" memoration of the beginning of the third year of the Council, next Fall, are attempting to valueate the work that has gone on and the results which have been secured. Scouting has been extended to many hundreds of boys, more than twice as many now being reached as were two years ago. The men of the various towns are taking as much stronger interest and much more acâ€" tive part in the scout work. "Our local troops in Lake Forest have done well, largely due to the oversight of the executives who have visited them frequently. The council has been helpful in supervising the troops and advising the scout leadâ€" ers," says Dr. George Roberts, pastor of the Presbyterian church of Lake Forest. Arthur B. Rowell, superintendent of the Glencoe school says "there has been a great deal of evidence recently, that scout work is going well." ‘ Troop 55â€"Joseph Rau, Reptile Stuâ€" dy; William Carper, Athletiecsâ€"First Aid to Animals; Gerhard Gulder, Fireâ€" manship, Life Saving, First Aid, First Aid to Animals; Elester Stanton, Scoutmaster, _ Signalling, â€" Reptiles, Angling, Leather Working.

The season of 1927 produced 2,000 bushels of cherries in Christian counâ€" ty. This year it is predicted the crop will reach 3,000 bushels in spite of the fact that oneâ€"half of the buds sufâ€" fered from frost. | Weather conditions have so far been favorable to the apple crop in the same section, with a yield of 40,000 bushels â€"predicted as compared to 30,â€" 000 bushels for 1927. Other specimens just added to the gem collections in H. N. Higinbotham hall of the museum through the genâ€" erosity of Mr. Crane include some unusually patterned pieces of agate and green aventurine from Sibera.

'a&mm; * The rose color of the quarts is unâ€" usually deep in this specimen, accordâ€" ing to Dr. 0. C. Farrington, curator of geviogy, and the bow! is a remarkâ€" able example of the workmanship of the lapidists of Idar, especially when it is considered that at the time it was made they worked only with wooden grinding wheeis driven by water power. ml-fl&.fl--;.
