Let us from this hour on proclaim the name and fame of the new wonderland that lies west of the Rockies, and let us consider ourselves, individually and collectively, bound to the performance of our duty as citizens to make the Exposition of 1925 one worthy of the name, triumphant to the end.

The youngsters are now engaged in clear ing the grounds, building trails and erecting a 50-foot flagpole. They are making preparations for a swimming tank, 100 by 30 feet, which will re quire 60 barrels of cement in its con struction. Flans, too, are being com pleted for construction of a cabin 20 by 30 feet. The cabin will have a large room with a dormitory balcony. The latter will accommodate 40 bunks. A huge central fireplace will be a fea ture of the cabin. The cabin will be equipped with a full first aid outfit. The club members now make weekly trips to their club quarters. One hour of each day spent at the camp is de voted to school. Director Newhouse teaches themon subjects of woodcraft, first aid, sportsmanship and reverence. Officers of the camp have been elect ed as follows: Leonard Thomson, sen ior officer; Alvin McCarty, second senior officer; Ed ('ram, first sergeant; Robert Hutler, Raul Keir and Frank Barger, color sergeants; Kelsay Slo com, drummer and orderly and Carl Calandra, bugler. The boys may do home study and take examinations for promotion. During the past week Leonard Thomson has been promoted to first class Hoy Scout. Director Newhouse declares that bovs may lay a firm foundation for the problems of life by participation In the activities of a well directed recrea tional ramp. He maintains that the life of the open, with the adventure demanded by boys adds to their growth, physically and morally. The camp is operated under strict disci pline, and this lesson of obedience and cooperation is declared beneficial. Mr. Newhouse tells of a recent incident. The camp sentries were instructed one nitrht to allow no one to pass their posts. Later Mr. Newhouse, diagtliaad as an Indian, crept hy a post, hasten ing into the brush when challenged to halt. With military precision the pre sence of an interloper was communi cated to the sergeant of the guard and in a short time the entire assem blage of boys was engaged in orderly search of the surrounding woods for an Indian. "It was interesting to watch their procedure," says Mr. Newhouse. "F.en though they had previously had but limited training, they began their search into the darkest and remotest parts of the woods, and there was evidenced not the slightest fear. They proceeded in their task with a confi dence that waa inspiring." CUMBS TO INJURIES Jack Anderson Off to West Point John H.
