A Scout is trustworthy in which one of the boys, namely Emile Simon, promised the leader to bring a Scout Handbook, he had borrowed, back to this Iheeting. Telling the master that he had left it home. The Scoutmaster Isold him he didn't have to get the book if he didn't wish to. But Emile promptly turned heels for home and after a while he returned with the book. Nice going, Emile. you proved you were trustworthy arid that's one thing that will set you on the" right track. I'll not say anything in referonce to that. law, .but you eight to gain something by his example^ "Clean." was another part of the Law talked about. Remember there are three ways of being clean: mentally, morally, and physically. Patrol leaders, you said ydu'd take over this duty of making "A Scout Is Clean" week. That doesn't mean, however, that you should let down after this week. No siree, come back all the stronger the 1 following week.
