Romance In Scouting Continued from page 1 out in the open, h o w to pitch a tent and how to make a sufficient gathering of wood so a person w ouldn’t have to h u n t at night in the dark. Scouting is a romance because scouts are always present and w illing to help where it is urgent. T hey are ready to give first aid and ready to serve food to those who are hungry. W hen one is a scout, he has the qua lities of being courteous, kind, alert, and courageous. So Scouting is a life th at is full of rom antic and thrilling experiences th at are enjoyable. As Mr. Monroe stated, “ A chievem ent makes Scouting ro m antic.”
