The Woman Who
Entertains Well
There's something indescribably fine about the woman
who entertains well. From the cheery apearance of her
home to the service she so deftly affords everything is
so natural yet so charmingly different.
Such splendid hostesses, once very rare and belong
ing only to the idle classes, are now to be found every
where. They grace homes in every walk of life mak
ing them happier through the many friends they attract.
Advertisements keep these women ahead of the
commonplace. Advertisements tell of the newest and
most delightful things. Advertisements announce new
customs and practices. They tell what the world ap
proves as correct.
The woman who entertains well must read the ad
vertisements. Not only to keep pace with progress but
to learn how to do so on a limited purse. For advertise
ments are more than harbingers of style they are an
nouncements of economies that may be practiced safely.
TF you want to know about
tires, ask the man who 6ells
them. He knows knows tire
construction, tire performance,
tire maintenance And when
you talk to him you get first

with whose standing you are
acquainted.

TROOP ONE NEWS,
Troop one held Its weekly meet
ing at the Scout Camp Monday
evening. There were seventeen
preawiU. We have however, some
scouts who do not read the paper
as much as they should and there
fore did not know that we were
coin to hold the meeting at the
cauiD around. Each scout took
his lunch and cooked it at the I
camp. Among other business
matters discussed during I he
meeting was the question of how
to Improve the camp. It was
suggested that each troop be gi
ven some specltio piece of work
to do and later asstgu the minor
Jobs, to patrols. This would tend
to tuake each scout want to keep
the camp up better than If each
troop wa given a certain part to
take care of. Alter the regular
meeting games were played.
Everyone had a fine time aud
wished that be could go oftener.
The next trooo meetiug will be
held at the camp ground provid
ing the weather permits. Uet in
touch with Mr. Liulott regarding
this.
Troop one has gone on record
as offering service to the Commit
tee in charge ot the Strawberry
Carnival to be held In May.

head of the class. 1 have handed
in lour big pages of news, so
much that it caunot all be printed
th.s week. Of course i do not
wish to brag, but I sure am
good.
We are enjoying mighty good
discipline in our troop. We have
a "keep order" committee and it
Is functioning.
The Becond troop blrdhouse
contest closed at our troop meet
ing Monday evening. Mr. V. T.
Jackson, President ot the Scout
Council and Scout Executive were
present as judges. First prise,
two dollars worth of acout mer
chandise, was awarded to Scout
George Mlnturn, and second, fifty
cents In scout merchandise, was
awarded to Peter Summerhalter.
There were a number of other
good bouses entered. Each Scout
took turns in telling about how
he built his birdhouse .and with
out doubt there was a lot of good
hard work put in to .help the
birds.
A delegation of fine fellows will
Journey over to Melrose Friday
evening to assist in giving a short
scout demonstration to the people
of that vicinity. Sten Lobek and
Earl Long will do some signaling,
Harold Tnomas aud Llndon llofl

we vote otherwise In which case
, the executive will take us farther

hike. If we spend all of our
time, hiking, we will not have
time enough for tests and games.

TROOP THREE NEWS.
We only had eiiiht scouts out
at the meeting Monday night.
Probably the reason for this is the
fact that we have been holding
the meetings on Tuesday evenings
but since Rev. Mow is holding re
vival meetings on that evening
we have decided on Monday even
ing until the revival is over.
You haven't lost your pep have
you fellows? You'd better not
because we want to live up to
what our scoutmaster thinks of
us. -We had a very succensful
meeting and after that learned
a new game.
In the near future we are to
be given another talk on First
Aid by Dr. Moon. We all need
this badly. Have any questions
ready which you want answered
these to concern first aid.

AN EASY THRIFT.
(By Everett McCutchan of Frank
lin High School, Portland.) ..
What is a word ot six letters
beginning with "T" which spells
happiness and independence in old
age? This is indeed a real cross
word puzzle, one which has been
bothering the world for centuries
and only lately seems to be near
solution.
The first letter ot this word Is
"T", which stands for thought
fulness. No person can have a
complete and well ordered life
unless he employs thought In bis
spending, saving and investing.
Thouglufulness for one's children,
and the years of later life Is also
wise, who wants to be dependent
after passing the years of produc
tion? "11" Is the second letter ot this
cross-word puzzle, and Is a good
start for the word happluess.
Careful saving and Investment
give one independence. It re
lieves one ot the burden of finan
cial worries and cares, and sin
gles one out above the common
mass as a leader in business.
Following the letter "11" Is
"R", which suggests the word
reasonable. In order to be suc
cess! ul, one should be reasonable
In what he spends, and for what
he sjienda It. Too many movies
and too much candy make high
doctor bills and act as a lead ball
on the man climbing to success.
As Jeff would say, "For the love
of Mike, be reasonable."
i The letter "I" might stand for
anything. It might stand alqne
as a sentinel, reminding us to
practice what we preach. It could
on the other hand stand for in.
terest, independence on Income
Perhaps the last Is best, aud fits
our puzzle the right way,
Anv-
one can save, but anyone cannot
save the right amount ot bis In
come. If the newsboy saves $1
a week, it is fine, but if his fa
ther saves ony SI a week. It is not
so fine. Why not combine in
come with Investment and get In
terest or insurance.
The next word Is not so diffi
cult. "F" stands for family.
Every man should save for his
family and If he has no fumlly,
he should save la hopes that he
will have one.
"T" was a good beginning and
makes a good ending only now It
has changed its meaning and be
gins the word toil. We must all
toil In order to be financially In
dependent, but with careful toil
we can soon make our money
work for us. "T" might also stand
for time, reminding us that now
Is the time to begin saving and
not wait until It Is too late.
Now we have a good start on
out cross-word puzzle, and we
find our key word is thrift. This
is only one corner of our puzzle
in lite, and is a tine start on our
road to success.
Some unknown poet has written
words lo a song, which portrays j
the real meaning of the word ;
thrift (you may make your own i
tune.)
Pray for sunshine but always
be prepared for rain. 1
Save up your pennies and put !
them on the shelf. .
And the almighty dollar will '
take care of itself. j
Pray for sunshine but always ;
be prepared for rain. j
Spend a little, lend a little.
Help this great big world a i
little. j
Pray for sunshine but always
be prepared for rain. j

work under thayllrcllon of local

Service, who will be mighty glad

TUB PATHOL AT W ORK.
.The dividing ot the boys Into
perinaueut groups, or patrols, ot
from six to eight and treating
them as separate units, each un
der Its responsible leader, la the
key to success with a troop.
The patrol is the unit ot scout
ing whether for work or tor play,
for discipline or for duty.
An Invaluable step in character
training is to put responsibility
on to the Individual. This la im
mediately gained In appointing a
patrol leader to responsible com
mand ot bis patrol. Badeu

If you will observe closely In
looking through some of the pop
ular magazines, you will see the
advertisements of a great num
ber of summer camps. Do you
have any Idea what these camps
cost those attending? Well the
moat of them run from 1100 per
month up. Ot course they are
good camps and In some cases
hava things very elaborate
swimming tanks, tennis courts,
tennis courts, baseball diamonds,
horse back riding and private tu
tors. I wonder would we. way
out here on the west coast, where I
we claim to have the prettiest
scenery in the orld, be willing to
admit that they can have camp
sites as good as ours. Do you
think that the boys In those camps
ean wander outBlde of the most
ot the camp grounds and find real
honost to goodness country such
as ours? Out here where we have
the wonderful wild and alive
country that we have, do we need
to have swimming tanks, tennis
I courts, etc. in our camp? Now
compare the prices ot your camp
and theirs. Let us not knock
their camps back east boost
them and BOOST ours too. You
and me.
