CAMPING AND HIKING
Now is the time when an innumerable multitude of boys
are getting out for camping and hiking trips. So much has
been done in such activities by the Boy Scouts, that a special
word for this organization can well be said.
In former years, you would see about the same type of
- boys trying to create excitement by prowling around the
neighborhood on lawless errands of mischief and distur
bance. Now their fun spirit is being diverted into a whole
some channel, as they start out on their hikes, wearing Uic
..uniform they prize so much.
'T The tests for advancement in scoutcraft lead the boys
Jto keep their eyes open, to become students of nature, to
,'ghow common sense in meeting the exigencies of out door
trips. A boy really has to do considerable studying and ac
quire much useful information, before he can pass the high
er tests in this organization. Thus instead of competing
' to see which can excite the most admiration by the most law
Jess conduct, the scout is led to excel by self cultivation.
These out door experiences make boys strong and hardy.
'A fellow who can take a good long hike ought not to be
afraid of physical effort, and his improved condition ought
to make him better fitted to take up his book work when
school opens in the fall.
Fine ideals of service and conduct form a .part of thp
Scout code, and the fellow who gets those ideals in his head
gets a wonderful start toward a career of clean thinking and
acting. The boys in Roseburg should be encouraged to take
up scoutcraft. In all places where there are no troops or
an insufficient number of them, men interested in boy de
velopment should be urged to take hold and provide this
opportunity for the youngsters. Usually the boys are only
too glad to join if leaders can be found for tihem.

WEATHER OUTLQOK MADE
SAN FHANOISCO, Juno 20 The
weather outlook for the week be
ginning June 21. was announced
here today by the United States
.Weather Bureau aa follows:
I'acific states the outlook Is for
' generally fair weather, except for
fogs along tho north California

(Jeorne llentford, a negro, who
was serving a term from Monterey
county for burglary, was stubbed
I to death Id the state prison here
; today while the convicts were' fil
ling out of the dining hall to their
work. In a dying statement he
accused William Keating, also a
negro, a convict from Sacramento
of the stabbing.
Keating was punished recently
I for removing a brick from the
wall of his cell, supposedly In an
'attempt to escape. The two men,
' who were cell' mates, quarreled
'last night and resumed tire quar

One day enlistments are being
procured today for National De
ense Day. Under the plan this year
the enlistments are being taken
for one day only, July 4, no mili
tary formations or other observ
ance of the day being made except
where provided by Mayors or pat
riotic organizations of cities.
National Defense Day has aa Its
purpose the organizing of the man
power of the country Into a great
; skeleton army. All of the reserve
of flcera have been assigned to vari
ous units, and by one day enlist-
menta they bring these to a war
I time quota by one day enlistmena.
: Plans are worked out for housing
land feeding, so that the officers
I are completely trained. Under "this
plan, it la proven possible for the
Country to raise a great army for
defense in one day, and have lta
officers already to provide for
handling the great army without
confusion.
This plan was suggested by the
American Legion, and was success
fully worked out for the first time
I last year. The great showing made
at that time proved that It la pos
' sible for this country to maintain
at all tiroes a skeleton army, which
upon short notice can be recruited
to full strength, provisioned and
armed, and placed Into the field In
the case of foreign invasion.
Thla year, the problem la large
ly one for the officers alone. Each
of the local reaerve officers are to-day
securing enlistments in their
unite, each officer endeavoring to
secure twenty five recrulta, which
will reaae Roseburg's quota of 600.
No formal demonstration la to be
made.' The officers merely planning
to make up their organizations, and
report to headquarters the theoreti
cal arrangementa for housing, feed
ing and equipping the men.
The oath of enlistment being
taken la aa follows: 'We do here
by volutarily enlist In the Army of
the United States for one day,
July Fourth, 1925. We do ths as a
token of our loyalty and willing
ness to serve our country and aa
an expression of our belief that it
la the duty of every American citi
zen to serve in the defense of the
United Statea of America, its ideals
and institutions, should they ever
stand in danger. We bind ourselves,
by this oath, to no further obliga
tion." The program adopted makes no
interference with holiday plans,
for all volunteera are excused from
further duty other than that" of
taking the oath. At all public gath
erings and celebrations on July 4,
speakers are asked to call upon all
volunteers who have enlisted pre
vious to that date and who are
present at the meeting to stand for
a moment, and rtiey will then be
excused from taking the oath a
second time. The speaker will then
ask all others present, who are
willing to aid in the defense of the
country, to take the oath at that
time.
' In spite of the difficulties Inci
dent with putting on a defense
test on July 4, the officials in
charge of the effort In Oregon are
confident that it can be done, and
the people of the state are urged
to got behind the movement, and
aid in keeping up this state's
great patriotic record.
