Last time we played baseball before the meeting, so the gang thought that would be the same game this meeting. Well, frankly, it was, but also the almost lost in mind, "Capture the Flag," played a great part in determining the Scouts' moods. After the tussle for the flag back and forth, catching and being caught, each Scout came out with plenty of lustre in his eyes and his cheeks red, a symbol of the true blood of Scouts. There are so many of you fellows who ought to join the Scouts and get in on the fun that I can't enumerate them all. Just come dowrT to the meeting, we'll be glad to greet you. One of the largest crowds of the year was present at the meeting. Yes, sir, thirty-one husky boys. But there were a whole "slew'* missing. Oh, you say, how to get them back. Tell theim that this Friday a hike, overnight, will be staged commencing, at 4:30. But some say they cannot stay overnight, I hear someone pipe up. Well, I have a remedy for him, also. A Boat Hike has our oppointn^ nt for the following Monday. Personally, I think the gang will do justice to both of the hikes. They prefer the boat hike most because we have few of them, but then, in contrast, the overnighters provide more songs, games, thrill, and what not. Get the old boat baled out and the knapsack cleaned and show us your faces. Consult your Patrol Leader for mess menus and sleeping materials. Mr. Schoenholtz, the Scoutmaster, did a little bragging--bragging won't hurt anyone; in fact, I think it does a little good, concerning a new Senior Patrol Leader and two future Eagles. Gordon Granger is the former, while Jack Hess, and is my face red,--get it--the latter. The Patrols, discussed the hike and the old "whistle tooter,. the Scoutmaster, did a little questioning and reminding. I only hope that all of you are obedient to your Patrols. Remember, it's you that mkkes the Patrol; so what you do, good or bad, will go for or against the Patrol. Bear it in mind and prove it if you think that I'm full of baloney, as some say. Harry Conway and Bob Kilday have the games for the next meeting, while the Senior officers are doping out a plan for you. Get all of the absentees at the next meeting to give a "present, sir," to prove they're there. SCOUT HAROLD TAXMAN.

Those ten runs'in the eighth are something to get up in ;the night and write home about especially when it means nosing out the opposition by one run. But what puzzles most of us is how Bush and Jurges got the punishment without Lavagettd and Joiner getting it in the neck at the same time. Boththe Sox and the Cubs now boast winning streaks of no mean size with the Sox having been halted only GOLF and consequently left this column without much to gab about. That galf match would have been mighty interesting with the high schofil. hav-I ; ing last year's team intact and Wood- : stock boasting a couple of boys that are no slouches by any means.

The game of golf is one of the finest sports for boys and girls. It keeps them in the open air and sunshine, among the flowers and trees, makiftg them familiar with the many beauties cf nature. There is no better place for boys and girls to meet and mingle than on the golf course, where the spirit of trtie sportmanship and sociability prevails in the highest degree. The game furnishes splendid training for the mind, it teaches concentration and the co-ordination of mind and body. It also teaches self^pontrol of mind and body, and4^fSt of all, it teaches them to be godd losers as well as '£ood winners, which will be valuable to them P throughout their lives when they must take their losses and hard knocks like true sportsmen. Other, more strentious sports such as football, basketball and baseball/; require strength and only those boy* and girls who are sturdily built and muscular may successfully compete in thesfe sports. Golf does not place such a i premium on physical strength or power and those not having the power and strength to excel in other more strenuous Sports may, by developing accuracy, play ^ winning game of golf. "• There is one highly intportant feature about the gaine of golf which does not apply to any other sport. Boys and girls may continue to play golf after- they leave school arid throughput their entire lives. The game sets no age ilmit. It may, be ehjoy'ed until one is too old to swing a club or walk around a golf course. , Therefore, the training a youngster receives in golf while in school may be utilized and valuable to him thruout his entire life. ability than other#, be more apt pupils and develop a better game, but no one can develop1 the proper swing which leads to a good game without training and coaching. The golf professional has made t)» game of golf his life work. He has made a thorough study of its fundtf* mental principles and has trained to impart his knowledge to others in * manner that will be easily understood and readily adopted. s PROMOTIONAL The rural schools ercises for schools McHenry Community trict will be held at. on Thursday, May 17, second one of the county.1 EXERCISES ( promotional ei|| underlying tnl high school disthe high school , and will be the season . in the ON" PETIT JURY .• fienry Weber has been selected serve jib-the petit jury for the MSy term, which 'Opens May-27. : There is no such thing as a "natural golfer".
