January 18, 1929 WILMETTE LIFE Every Scout Test New Troop 45 Scouts Will Experience-Scouting Hold Outdoor Hike Teats Every test or Scout activity has connected with it a variety of social responses. A Scout is cooking a piece . of ·steak. Some one or many of . the . following attitudes may be involved. · Is he inclined to try to do it right or any old way? Are his preparations adequate or inadequate? .,Does he go at it vigorously or lazily? Does he expect help or intend to rely on himself? Does he accept suggestions or re·s ent them? Does he interfere with his neighbor's cooking or is he willing to help? What is his attitude when the steak falls into the coals, or the stick breaks, or he gets out of fuel, or some other difficulty arises? When he has completed the cooking, what is his attitude toward another such experience? Has he developed an idea of conduct in the face of certain fuel conditions, certain atmos1lhere conditions? The cooking of the piece of steak is little in itself, but the attitude a boy learns 'while doing the cooking is most important.-Scouting. Troop 45 will have one meeting each month for an outdoor meeting where we can pass our outdoor advancement test. Our next Exam Hike in the woods wilt be in two , weeks. If the weather is fit, we will go to the woods and pass our cooking, fire-building, tracking, and other outdoor exams for First and Second class.

Leaders have shown real interest in this first aid training course, this being the seventh meeting out of the eleven which comprise the complete course.
