' New "ARMSTRONG" Footwear Just in The Boy Scout movement is thirteen years old today and scouts throughout the country are beginning a week of celebration. " Although the movement is not yet old enough to see any of its members reach the congres sional desk, the supreme court bench, or the presidential chair, its oldest members are now in college or starting in business, and many are making worthy records pre saging good results in future citizenship. The seeds of thoughtfulness for others, courtesy, cheerfulness and loyalty planted by the scout training have already borne fruit the country over. Millions of "good turns" performed by the scouts are bright lights in the great painting of life. They have won the nation's confidence and .'interest, and the nation looks forward to the full blossoming of the scout training in the maturity of scout manhood. The nation hopes for prepared and noble citizenship from these boys who have pledged them selves to f ollow the great scout oath and law. The nation has a right to expect much, and has good basis on which to rest this expectation in the record so far achieved: hun dreds of rescues, first-aid in emergencies, fire-fighting, wild life conservation, community good . turns, finding lost ueoplc and many others. -The following verse is typical of the aim of the move ment: "There will be less of selfishness And more of kindness when, The troops are mustered into life And all scouts are men."

It is clear, therefore; that those who shrink from mental activity and creative thought will be found among the ones who 'most closely cling to the accepted "school" or fashion. The individuals who have reached achievement in their chosen field have done so because of patient unrelenting toil, together with the conviction that their message is peculiarly their own and hence worthy of beautiful ex pression.'

Mr. Engleman has the right idea although there would tyein, in the teaching of moral.", i'.o be necessity for a retardation of the intellectual. Indeed, intellectually and morality should be interdependent, one being naturally and ally of the other Where the moral standard is low ered there is a conscuueniC lowering of the intellectual.

V. batlieyot- Llatieirh, Ta., who has wi-itten to King Alphon so of Sjiain to inform that monarch that they were both married on the same day, Mav '!, 1SHK5, that each became the father of a son on "May 10, 1!)07, and that each has four children inuring off into' equal ages. Be it said to the credit of Alphonso that he was just as vhuch thrilled by the letter of Dr. Sadley's informing him of the remarkable series of coincidences as Dr. Sad ley was. His majesty sat down and wrote to Doc, ex pressing a hope that the two families mighfc at some time meet. In that mooting, should it ever come off ,the regular routine of royalty dictates that Doc Sadley and Mrs. Sad ley and all the Sadley kids must bow their knees and kiss the kingly hand that is tendered them But Alphonso is! known as a democratic lponarch. Maybe he'll offer justi to shake. Let it be hoped he has that much good sense, j . From a German source it is sucirested that the United! States assume a mandate over the Ruhr.
