ROSEBURO, OREGON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13. 1925.
''ONCE A SCOUT ALWAYS A SCOUT!"
"Good things generally come in two's," is an old adage.
" In this case, the good things are the lioy Stouts of
America, and the 2,000,000 boys who have been enrolled in
its ranks.
This week the I5oy Scouts are celebrating the fifteenth
anniversary of the founding of their Movement in this coun
try. The slogan of the week is, "Once a Scout, Always, a
Scout;" the predominating motive, to renew the comrade
ship between these 2,000,000 young men and the Movement
Not the least impressive of the nation-wide ceremonies
of tSie week occured on February 8th, when the entire huge
membership, standing at attention, renewed allegiance to
the principles of the Scout Oath and Law.
From the business and professional worlds, from the
fields of church, school and state the 2,000,000 formerly ac
tive comrades have been coming to join the ranks. Scout
manhood is greeting Scout boyhood a union hard to excel.
As a result these Scout men are going to carry back
anew into 2,000,000 organizations and institutions, stores
and offices, the fresh, joyous spirit of Scouting and its love
for fellowmen.
But a vaster result can be expected. These young men
with renewed consciousness of the advantages they have re
ceived from Scouting are going to feel a deepened sense of
obligation in passing on to other boys thegood things that
older men have given them. An increase in volunteer
leaders will come about.
T,1his will mean help and more help in solving Scout
ing's greatest problem the question of sufficient leader
ship. Today in the United States there are 8,000,000 boys of
scout age not yet in the ranks of Scouting. Nine-tenths of
these boys ardently desire to be scouts but are denied this
-opportunity because of the lack of leadership. More scout
masters mean more boys influenced at the most critical per
iod of their lives, toward the ideals of manhood that America
needs.
If 2,000,000 formerly active Boy Scouts take upon
.(themselves the duties and responsibilities of Scout leader
ship, inestimable will be the results to our nation in good
citizenship, democracy and true Americanism.

MR. CLEAVER THE "GOAT."
After reading tho prohibition probe committee on the
-tonduct of George Cleaver and the enforcement of the dry
law in this state, one is led to the conclusion that it was not
CO much the fault of Mr. Cleaver that the machinery of this
office was badly "gummed up." While it must be admitted
that Cleaver is not big enough for the job undertaken, the
fine Italian iliand of Governor Pierce is displayed in all im
portant undertakings launched by Cleaver. In fact, tho en
forcement officer could not carry out any program on his
own initiative and was therefore at the mercy of his sux.r
iors. And his superiors ditl not seem to hate any better
cenception of getting action than did Cleaver. The result
has been chaotic, and the investigation committee that delv
ed into the affairs of the office from every angle and listen
ed to much testimony, was not of one mind in their final
reixirt. The fact that Governor Tierce appeared before the
investigating committee and assumed all responsibility for
the conduct of the office under the supervision of Mr.
Cleaver, and the utter failure of the prohibition commission
er to got any concrete results under the personal direction of
Governor Tierce, is evidence that even the governor of this
state is not sufficiently informed, neither has he the ability
to properly carry out the mandates of the office of prohibi
tion commissioner. Mr. Cleaver has been made the "goat"
for a lot of publicity and resonsibil.ity that actually belong
ed to Governor Tierce.
