After a short business meeting congncted by Scout- mnster Herbert R. Smith, the troop ‘1’ _J|paneséSeouis. _.

The' thirtrthree scouts, led by Scoutmas- ter George Murray and Dr. C.1B. Jonesof Sacramento, will- spend the summer in Jaban, returning to'their homes in Stptember. One' of the features of the trip is the fact that the group, did not touch land until they arrived in Japan. . Leaving Sacramento, they took a steamer l down" the Sacramento y"wer to San Francisco, where they changed to an' ocean liner in. San Francisco Bay. The day" before they, reached their destination, a ship loaded with Japa- nese scouts embarked from Yoko- hama and greeted the tourists at sea. The boys are spending 40 days in Japan, 25 of which will be required for contemplated inland _ trips and' the youths will then disband for 15l days in' order to visit relatives. . It), 1is the first time' in the history of scoutd0m_-that an entire troop has made an official visit to a foreign country. The trip is in the way of a reward, the troop having done sqme of the best scout work in their disi trict. There .are' tout. Eagle scouts in trieiroop,%ore than in anrothy' scout troop in Sacramento. "' . . Scout [heroism .1 In January 192grtntop No., 1 of Stafford Springs Was organized with A. R Grénier as the scoutmaster. The troop had thirty-two members. It was Hard to 'get a spout troop started at Stafford Springs. There were 'not very many men who were interested in triirihtr"jme toieadership in seodt- int-for boys but Scoutniaster G enier kept on. He organized a 'tUPS-ll) mittee and ,Soon the troop was flour- ishing. In May 1927, while working on a large truck, the blocks ahd jack -irliirtiedrahd Seturtmastee Grenier was crushed beneath it. He was so seri- ously injured that all hope for his ilife was given up and it was neces- “sary for surgeons to put his entire body in a piste: east.] For months. while he, hmiered between- life, and . death, only "his nearest relatives could visit him. The troop of scouts, withcut adeqiiate leadership, broke up and many of the scouts drifted away. Months went by and Seoub. master Grenier. got a new hold on -life. He re-registered aryreout'mas- ter of his troop and called together a committée of the men of the town to discuss Boy Stout matters. And then, without being able to, sit up in iLi,) he re-ortranfked his scout troop withl the help of the older boys and others“ "of his friends. -Diat was more than 16 months "o and they have been the busiest months in 1t,!,'lid.t,',',gr, of the troop. Over-night hik , parades, messenger services,,. _ guiding: jobs,, ' everything ’a scout could do, was car- ried onby the tiirop which now mam-' berd thirty-one scouts; seven otwhieh _ are first elassasnd eight second rank. , And all of the activities Were car- tied each week by mews}: of the Bott Scout Press Club. on' while "ht scoutm‘ister was THE" PR3ttrtt confined to a hospital bed. The lor"- alty of the scouts, his scouts, has been one of the" things that has help. ed to give seisutmasrter Grenier a chance for life. And .from the in- spiration that the scoutmaster has given to the boysrwho, served under him; Troop No. 1 of staftoid Springs has become an outstanding "Boy Scout. troop.' _ .
