Incorporation having been made In 1910 under the laws of the District of Columbia. Celebration of Anniversary Week has passed the Boy Scouts in review before the whole nation. And the nation gave Its ap* proval. In the fourteen years the member* ship has increased to 450,084 registered scouts and 142,082 men giving service In volunteer capacities, such as scout* masters, and members of troop Committees and local councils. At tills writing there are 20,437 troops lq..the United States composed of an aver* age of 22 boys each. KacHMroop is organized ltt connection with an institution like a church, school or business men's club, or under the supervision of a community committee. Among the institutions In which there are Boy Scoot troops, there are 10,80.1 churches, 1.719 schools, 285 Young Men's Christian associations, and 1G3 Itotary clubs and other business men's organizations. During these fourteen years merit Wdges Itave been awarded to scouts to a total of 345.907', of which 144,268 were awarded in 15)22, practically twice the number awarded In 1920$showing the increasing inteiest manifested by scouts in tha, more serious side of the program. A total of 83 gold honor medals have been awarded to scout# who have saved, or tried to save human lives at their own peril. Other badges to the number of3 15,068 have been awarded for extraordinary acts of heroism. There are 2,700 organised, equipped and stands ardized Boy Scout camps which can take care of 2o0,000 at one time. In addition to many thousands of single-troop camps. Last summer more than 225,000 scouts were In camp from one to three weeks. Winter hiking and camping are now al* most as popular. The phenomenal success of the IJoy Scout move* ment may surprise some people, but to those who know and love boys It Is the most natural thing In the world. It gets at the youngster in the right way and it gives him exactly what he wants at the time he wants it Every nofmai boy, at a certain stage of his development. thinks he wants to run away from home and fight Indians or live in a cave, which is his wof of reacting to the "Call of the Wild" and tlie urge for adventure out-of-doors,- near to nature's henrt. So naturally the Boy Scout Is Just crazy over getting out Into the wild and being told the thlng4 he wants to know and being shown bow to do the things he wants to da " " ^ Every normal boy would rather do right than do wrong. Nevertheless, he likes to go witli the crowd and looks up to the bigger boy. In the Boy Scout troop some leader is always moving in the right direction--and toward something interesting and worth while. Every normal boy likes to be busy and useful-- provided he doesn't have to do the thing and nobody is going to laugh at him for showing how - soft his heart really is. And competition and emulatlon, with the prospect of fame among his fel> lows suit him exactly. -- And, finally nobody says to the Boy Scout, "Don'tgo In swimming; the water's too cold." Instead, somebody he Ukes and looks up to says, "Com«>on In; the water's fine." Say, "Don't," to a boy and you Incite him to do that very thing. "Let's go," , starts him in tfie right direction' by foree of ex»\ amplet Service, as everybody knows, has come to be a big thing in the training of the Boy Scouts. Police department, fire department, American Red Cross; forest service, S. P. C. A., safety first, wild life conservation, American Aeronr itical society. Salvation Army, Near East committee, antituberculosis, Elks, Lions, Rotary, Kiwanis, American- Legion, chambers of commerce, churches, school^ public movements everywhere, have active co-operation from Boy Stouts and are glad to get It. It is this Idea of service that led the Leojrae oil . Nations recently to pass a resolution inviting the governments of all the member nations, to facilitate International exchange of visits among the Boy Scouts of the world. You see, the leagvit finds the world wpefully lacking in Ideals of disinterested service, Rvervwhere men are still being trained In the school which recognizes self, interest as the one motive of life and the one road to success. This cult of self shares with gold the opprobrious distinction of being the "root of alF •vIL" So the league sees In the scout's training Calm CaUunity Sea Captain--Yep, I was shipwrecked in the South Sea islands and found a tribe of wild women who had no tongues. Land Lubber--dee! How could they talk? Sea Captain--They couldn't; that's 1 what made them wild. " "I say, doctor, did you ever doctat another doctor?^ "Oh. yea." "Well, tell me *t|^jf»: Does a doctor doctor a doctor the way the doctored doctor wants to be doctored, or doe* the doctor doing the doctoring doctor the other doctor In his own way?* for service a spirit for which there is worid-wlde need. The activities of Anniversary Week were many and varied, whole communities joining in the cele? bratlon. Scouts visited the tombs of the nation's presidents. They went to church In uniform Scout Sundiiy. They held public demonstrations of scout efficiency. They honored American heroes of the out-of-doors like Kit Carson and Jim Brldger and Buffalo Bill and John Mulr. Chicago scouts elected a mayor and officials and ran the city for one hour. And everywhere the scouts celebrated Abraham Lincoln's birthday in a way that would have pleased the "Savior of His Country"--the' best Old Scout of them all, District of Columbia Scouts culled on President Coolldge at the White Mouse and had a good talk with him. And the half-million Boy Scouts enthusiastically ; Wok anew the scout oath, which Is "to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the scout law; " to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally •tralght." So popular with the boys of the United States is; th« movement that the men of the nation wilt have to bestir themselves to keep up with it and give It a fair chance to get its natural growth. Several big citlea are busy with "drives" for scoutmasters. Chicago, for example, has 10.000 Boy Scouts and 150,000 hoys who are eligible for membership; $150,000 could be used to advantage at once In starting new troops. New York is driving for 1,000 new scoutmasters who are urgently needed. One of the pictures shows three of New York's Boy Scouts before the microphone at Station W.1Z, speaking In this campaign. These boys are (left to right) Michael Sahika, Oeorge Kutzelman and Arnold Stanewick--all heroes, having saved a human life during the last year. The other pictur(,„-- illustrating drill for saving Jlfe at fires, cabln-bulldlng, map making, etc.--are self-explanatory. V There are three classes*»f Scouts, the tenderfoot, flicond class scout and first class scout. All must "thoroughly understand the Scout Oath and Law. the Sign. Salute and significance of the Badge. The First Class Scout must learn to swim 50 yards; must earn and deposit at least «2 In a public bank; know advance signaling and advance first aid; make a 14-mile round trip alone or with another Scout, and write a satisfactory accpunt of things observed; prepure and cook in the open with camp utensils a number of dishes: be able correctly to ttiap the country through which he passes; produce "articles of carpentry, cabinet making or metal Work, Judge distance, size, number, height and „ weight within 25 per cent; and meet certain exaiitilBg nature study requirements. ' First Class Scouts are eligible to try for Merit Badges'in 71 vocational subjects and arrive at the rank of Eagle Scout by qualifying in a total of 21 of these subjects. All the Merit.Badge subjects "Wive much informational, educational, Stiff ttonal value. The general public has no real oppo/tunlty to 'ftallze how useful are the Boy Scouts as a whole While the actual material service they render Is hardly to be computed In dollars and cents, they save the country thousand® of dollars every year. Here are a few of their many activities: Troop 1 of Ravenna, O., takes care of a state gfcme sanctuary containing ring-necked pheasants and quail. In Suffleld, Conn., a troop has been feeding birds and game all winter; the boys established no fewer than seventeen feeding stations. A troop in Roxbury, N. Yn has planted trout in ill the streams. Boy Scouts of Albany, N. Y„ devoted Columbus Day to planting 4.000 trees. Last spring another troop set out 5,000 white pine in the community forest at XIalone, N. Y. Yonkers scouts set our SjDOO trees in a single afternoon on the city watershed. Bronx hoys planted 25.000 two-year-old seedlings In two week ends. Seventy-live scouts spent their spring vacation gist year rescuing a sand dune overlooking the dtjr smoldering fires. In 1922, one hundred medals for meritorious service were awarded to scouts by the Pennsylvania state forestry service. Reports like this come from all the large timber areas. The Boy Scout Fireman In the cities has been especially trained by the chief of the Fire Department in Flremanship and Safety First. His primary duty is to stop the fire before it happens. He is the official aide of the fire department and Saves loss of money and perhaps loss of life by his efficient service In fire prevention. No kerosene poured on the kitchen fire; no hot ashes In wooden barrels; all gas and ^lectric fixtures Inspected. Are the fire escapes free from obstacles, the hallways from rubbish? Are Inflammable materials sequestered? Since 1017 over 30,000 Boy Scouts in every state in the Union have learned how to prevent fire from starting, how to keep It from spreading, and what to do In an emergency. The boy and the policeman are not always on terms of friendly co-operation. But the police find the Boy Scouts of the utmost assistance. Indeed, the New York iK)llce department is preparing a manual especially for the use of Boy Scouts, so repeated and consplclous have been the services these lads have rendered. Every scout has het-n trained tn first aid and many of them carry first aid kits. The scout motto i* "Be Prepared," and the Instances where a scout's prompt application of his knowledge has saved a human life are Innumerable., .Here's a dramatic instance. Into, the great York Field house at the University of Xlichigan streamed a tremendous crowd. The dedication exercises had commenced when the Jam at the north end became terrific. A man with his arm across his chest found his arm Jammed against the throat of a young w<""nn who WB8 f«olnK h,m- Th* woman, slowly suffocating, uttered penetrating screams. Scoutmaster Frank Farry of Flint, Mich., gathered three of the Flint Scouts and proceeded through the crowd, who loudly predicted "It couldn't be done." The scouts worked through to the entrance, then penetrated in a few feet and asked the people to step outside. A number promptly responded. The request was repeated until" the crowd was thinned sufficiently for the girl's father to carry out his daughter, who by this time was unconscious. The scouts could not get out of the crowd. But other scouts of the Flint troop immediately administered first aid, and withtn a half-hour the young jwoman, with assistance, was able to take her seat at the Marine- Mich i gun game. The National Aeronautical association has worked out a plan of co-operation with the Boy Scouts. The scouts are to receive special instruction from air officers and landing fields operated by the United States government. They are to be Wtaiepme guests at the weather bureaus. The which they take will enable a boy to tell type of plane in the air. understand Its maheuvers and operations, read Its signals and render Intelligent aid if it Is in distress. For more than a year special study has made of radio as an activity In the program of the Boy Scouts. The subject* which have been under consideration by expert* Include these: A recommendation as to absolute Ur standard parts which the organization can ap> nrove- development of a broadcasting plant, ylth regular broadcasting stations, throughout the United States; a system of receiving stations In local council offices with a wide range; a receiving set In the home of every scout; a system of broadcasttng and receiving between troops by a portable sending and receiving set. These are some of the reasons why leading educators declare scouting to be one of the roost "tajr nortant factors building the America of tomorrow. "Scouting is not recreation merely" the scout leaders declare, "Scouting is service, It trains for cltlxenship. It builds character." - These are some of the reasons why one: understanding citizen is apt to say to another: ^ .
