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."

Here for Early Selection
.
Though you may still think it a little early for selecting your
Spring wardrobe, dresses ure always Interesting, no matter how early
they come. Kspecially is this true now for our assortments .were
never so complete and varied at such an early date.
"Peggy Paige" has sent uh a great many attractive little dresses

of tbe'swfijciitaijd it may serve as a turning to those
eithusiaMs rty rwfivfl too eager to follow the hue and
cry of a new fad in the f ine arts. , . j : i' :
The attractive thing abiiut a fashion is that its fea
tures are plainly apparent to the one who would follow it,
and he has to do little or no thinking on the subject him
self. 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

still in the balance and whe her it
KiK-s up or down is to be deter

set up in the schools and the moral
enthusiasm we have as teachers and
pass on to our pupils."
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. But if one or
the other is to b( neglected, by all
means, as Mr. Kngleman suggests,
let it be the intellectual, which can

Coincidence
A most uinuue distinction is claimed bv Dr. F. 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. That job ap
pears to be more than filled already.
If the two (iivok princes now in this country get tired
of living on their wives' money, thev can probablv find
openings for restaurants. ' '
The average man can not understand how persons'
from whom he buys learn so quickly that he has had a'
raise in pay. ' !
It is said the ponrlnnises are filled with fellows afraid!
to take a chaikx. And nun otiu-rs who took to manv;
doing ull that is required of them
when, as a matter of fact, this ele
ment of their work is probably tho
less impm-tant of nhe two. The leal
teacher, the teacher worth while, is
he or she who gees in the profession
an opportunity to build character, to
so fashion the lives of their charges
that when they leave school '.here
will he little danger of unseemly
conduct. Sometimes the seeds of
viciousness and immorality tire sown
in the school room. Hence the im
portance of 'the utmost cart in se
lecting tcacheia with high ideals and
with tile general welfare of the pu
pils at heart.
