" THE SOOUTIn VISIOX One of the first principles In culcated by Scouting: is that of earning money- But it goes farther than that It not only teaches but requires that a boy shall both earn money and. save It. ; And to teach a'l,oy .how to sure money Is to teach hln . how to spend H.. . . ' 'i,' - ..i ' ! Scouting does not monoptIzj a boy's time or teller parents from their responsihil I ties..:.: In direct opposition t to anys' such notion, Scouting seeks mef ily to' Influence bys to do, more cheerfully,; more willingly; pore eiffecleiitly and cf fectlTely, erery one of their ordin ary duties and more; '' . Scouting Induces boys to extend and enlarge their usefulness rto their, parents.', to the community and to themselves. - , . : f There Is much to be said of the failure of the .home and parents who neglect their plain responsi bilities to their children Three is much egotistical fool ishness In many so-called "uplift" efforts But no amount of criticism of failures and mistakes - will -disprove the value of uuited consci entious effort tor better ends Nor will such criticism take the place of constructive - ef fertj to profit by mistakes and.' to ' avoid them" " : " No present u cpportunlty for grand results to future civiliia tlon can compare with . the- one one now recognized In the yearn ing, hungry heart of boyhood. Nor does this mean that V the bqys are to be Idolized, Indulged, feted and.;spoilod. ;", 'v 4 xt - - Such , an outcome vould . prove the foolish unfitness of any sort of effort : :l ' :.''' -VV; But such an opportunity as Is offered' in the program of. Scout ing for big, up-looking men to ex -change a little time from the ar duous grind of money making as they know It today to get a gleam of light ' that will ' teach them ' lessons In fortifying their own and future -security from a the. hill you .

A scout is icyal. In spite of an opposition slate at our last election, the-dafeated opponent of the reenlar slate have time and again demonstrated their loy alty. 3. A scout is helpful. The motto of Klwanls, "We .uild," means Just that! ' V;;;;- '4.i A scout is friendly. How long can a grouch be one of us? i 6. - A scout Is courteous. No man who is noi a gentleman is eligible to Klwani3. "6:-A.coat Is obedient. All men who have risen to; executive plac es, one point of eligibility to Kl wanls, understand the necessity of complying with . authority. No man can be a good citizen, unless he accedes this point. 7. A scout is cheerful. To spread good cheer Is part of Kl wanls. Kiwaniana are wonderful at making peopte happy. ' Just think Hobbs, Slesdman, Buer We, Maher, Alexander, Slgard; to mention our ; cheer giving mem bers Is to read our rotter. ' - 8. A scout Is brave. A Kiwan. ian fights for what he thinks is Tight I 9.' A scout Li clean. A Kiwan- Ian must keep his thoughts clean He cannot otherwise be one of us. 10. A scout Is reverent. On this point I resign to Dean Tre- dor. ,:, Fellow members: Klwanians are la trtoth, not Boy Scouts, but grown-up Boy Scouts. Unless we feel as do the boys, wo cannot be good Americans good Kiwan- ans."
