SALEM PEOPLE SPEAK FOR BOY SCOUTS
They Tell of the Value of the Boy Scout Movement to the Commun
ity in Many Ways A Remarkable and Interesting Symposium
" Hyj ELMO S. WHITE
A tremendous proportion of tho
public moneys of the state are
spent in care of the state's unfor
tunates, j Witness the state hospi
tals for the insane, the feeble
minded, reformatories for girls
and fort boys, state penitentiary,
and various other institutions.
Right living on the part of
adults ia this or past generations
would haveiprevented a very great
part of all this misery and expense.
The present generation must face
and meet the disastrous results of
lack off training or knowledge' or
care among many of those who
have gone before.
The hiet ambition of the Boy
Scout movement is to help and
it does I help in a marvelous de
greetie fundamental and prim
ary institutions such as the home,
church and school. Once these

lessened population of such insti

all accept the truism: "As the

With that as a basis, let us con
sider: ! ;
About one-third of a boy's time
is unorganized pleasure.
What boya do fixes their habits.
Habits become chains that bind.
1 Salem Is therefore Titally con
cerned in giving boys a chance to
do right things.
Boys Naturally have the "gang
epirit," loyalty to their "bunch."
and love to iook up 10 some one
as a "hero." That spirit properly
dealt with makes the boy's heart

of right-hearted men is all import
ant to the boys and to the com
munity. In Scouting . boys are
taught to do by doing, and they
are taught citizenship through
nervine. All of this under the
guidance of right-hearted men.
Readiness to serve is the work
inir attitude demanded of those
who would live in and help main
tain a real democracy. Such an
attitude is builded by actual ser
vice. ( The outcome of the prac
tice of the daily "good turn" is the
daily strengthening of character,
be it in the individual, the troop,
or the whole body of Scouts or
in the; community as a whole.
Boys are maturing in the com
munity. The needs of -these boys
differ from the needs of adults.
The kind of citizens that these
boys shall be will be determined
by their habits. Their habits are
in formation.

Boy wastage spells community
danger.
The value of boy service to the
community has boen very general-
ly underestimated. Boy scouting
provides the hoy good chances to
participate in community, life and
thus trains boys to later become
leaders or community activities,
i Community service is always
possible to the Boy Scouts here in
Salem; there is always work to be
done and the Boy Scouts so far
organized here have always stood

sistance at auto park, (25) ridding
streets jand alleys of nails, glass
and other injurious - substances,
(26) uniform tree planting. (27)
conducting strangers to hotels in
convention times, etc., etc. The
ways in which the community can
be served through proper organi
zation of the Eoy Scouts, as I have
said, are altogether too numerous
to itemize.
If you have read thus far in this
article you will have noted that
although the immediately forego
ing paragraph suggests the bene
fit to the community which will
arise from the enlarged and inten
sified Boy Scout activities soon to
occur in this community the
thought runsthrough this entire
article that the boys are learning
by doing, and that the boys are
learning to be good citizens
through any of the activities men
tioned. Character building, citi
zenship training, and physical fit
ness for the boys is the concern
of Scouting. The purpose of
Scouting is to cooperate clearly
with existing agencies in every
possible way. Service to others is
the fundamental principle i n
Scouting practice.
Scouting in this community off
ers a proved program tor Doys
needs. The program is national,
vet it ia for local use. It is orsan
ized and conducted by local men
for the benefit of local boys. The
Boy Scout program is fundamen
tally religious though nonsectar-
Han, treating Catholic, Protestant
and Jew with "equal respect" for
each other's views. j
Scouting neither seeks nor de
hires monopoly in boys' service.
The churches have endorsed and
are using the . program of Boy
Scouting to make the church the
hub of the recreational and com
munity life of its boys.
Scouting provides the commun
ity with a wealth of social service
from its boys and awakens boys
to do something for the commun
ity. The "good turn" means "going
about seeking to do good." and
while Salem and the community
hereabouts is undoubtedly one of
the cleanest in the United States
today from the point of morals.
and one of the highest in point of
intelligence, nevertheless 1 am of
the'opinion that there are but few
who will say that our community
association and inter-rclatlonship
cannot be improved.
This lominunity needs the help
of the boys with their fresh view
point or life, fully as much as the
boys need the help of the com
munity. .
With all the boya' agencies in
the community in action, there
are still myriad boys unreached-
there tre over 1000 boys in Salem
alone being unreached by any def
inite boys' program
It is to fill this need of tb.fi boy
in the Salera community that the
Boy Scout activities are now being
carried on.,

Boy Scout movement, the move
ment is indeed well worth while,
if in addition to this a community

vices of these splendid lads organ

Is it not better for the commun

Scouts of America.)
The Ktlut atioiiiil Value of Scouting
The Boy Scout movement is one
of the most effective means of
training boys for citizetiship. The
Scout oath and the Scout law o
honor and loyalty, the Scout motto
and slogan help perpetuate the
ideal3 of good citizenship among
the boys of America. The Boy
Scouts bring the community into
closer contact with the schools.
It bridges the gap between home
and school and takes care of the
leisure moments of a boy's time.
It works for the best moral princi
ples, the highest ideals, the finest
traditions and 'customs in a com
munity. Salem ought to support the Boy
Scout organization to the fullest
extent. The educational forces
of Salem realize that scouting con
stitutes one of the most coopera
tive agencies and helpful organi
zations that can be associated
with the schools. The Boy Scouts
reinforce and carry out the teach
ing of fidelity, trust, honesty,
truthfulness and industry that we
strive to embody in the courses of
instruction in the school room
The schools extend to the Boy
Scouts their best -wishes for the
continued success of the work in
Salem. We trust that the mem
bership among the boys will grow,
that, their influence be broadened
until we shall have a young citi
zenship alive to its responsibilities
and responsive to the needs of mo
dern life.

The Boy Scout movement is
worthy of the support of eveyr
man who has the welfare of his
state and nation at heart. This is
so because it is training a large
number of boys In those things
which are essential to their future
usefulness as citizens of our coun
try. In my Judgment it gives them
instruction upon matters which pre
not available to the boy in the ord
inary home or in the schools. It
teaches them things .which will
not only make them useful as men

The more this movement is sup
ported the greater will be the num
ber who will receive the benefits

No one who has ever had the
opportunity of observing the Boy
Scouts in action can help but re

these boys have had could not be

latitude to Volunteer Leaders
Aq a practical proposition, it
would bo out of the question for
us to expect men to actively par
ticipate in an effective way In a
program such as Scouting, as vol
unteers, If we were continually un-
lertaking to issue orders to them,
or say what they must do or must
not do. For this reason we have
been very careful, in developing
the whole scheme and the method
of routine operation, to set up
minimum standards and leave to
these volunteer workers the great
est degree of latitude practicable,
so as to avoid this sort of ques
tion, which would make difficult,
if not impossible, the hope of do
!ng anything worth while.
In view of what has been set
forth above, and our whole exper
ience covering the last 13 years, i.
is my opinion that it is not only
unwise aiid ill-advised for a local
council to undertake to in any way
interfere in an institution's man
agement of its own troop, but that
it has no authority to do so, ex
cepting, of course, where a viola
tion of our standards and regula
tions may be involved.
Indeed, it would do violence to
the terms upon which the invita
tion has been extended to the
churches, and other institutions of
America to make use of the Scout
ing Program. Certainly the Boy
Scouts of America would not have
iucceeded as it has if in our own
negotiations with the leaders of
the various denominations we had
not assured them that if they
made use of the Scouting pro
cram, there would be no effort on
the part of the overhead-organiza-J
tion in Scouting to in any way in
te'rfere with the local management
of their institution. Because of
the soundness of this position, and
the fairness of this position, and
the fairness with which our scout
officials have carried out our pro
mises, 'we have, as you know, the
record of having organized in
America more scouts and scout of
ficials than there are in all the
rest of the world put together, and
the-greatest source of activity in
the promotion of interest and ac
tual organization has been the
leaders of our vaffbus churches.
Great Responsibility of . Churches
On the merits of the case in
volved, as presented, it seems to us
to be quite reasonable , for the
church to take the position it has,
and there have been a number of
such cases called to my attention.
Hut on the other hand, I am hap
py to state that many churches
have been able to see their way
clear to make membership in the
troop available to any .boy who
lives in the neighborhood, provid
ing his parents approve, and his
mem be "ship will not involve any
unfairness to the leadership of hit
own church. Indeed, in some cases
where the boy is a member of an
other church which has a troop,
he is required to bring evidence
of approval not only from hi.-; par
ents, but from the leaders of his
chuieh. In some instances there
is more than one troop of scouts
in the church, made up of boys
whose pirents are connected wit!
tbo church, as well as of boys
whose parents have no church af
filiation whatsoever.
Unfoi tunatelv. we have not yet
i been able to make sufficient pro
gress in America to bring atioui-t-onditions
so that more than a lit
tle over a half of our people are In
any way related to churches, and
therefore, if we are to make the
Stout Program available to all
boys, it U absolutely ' necessary
that we try to develop such an
attitude on the -part of ehurchej"
as viil had them to open thir
iloon and make available their
physical facilities for housing of
troops regardless of, the fjiiestion,
as to whether the boys are. con
nected with the institutions in any
way whatsoever. s! Happily, this is
the attitude of most churches, but

riate of the local institution

You don't often hear of Boy
Scouts going wrong. The Boy Scout
organization has stood the test of
years and some of the best young
course of action, it is not within
the power of the Local Council to
in any way Impose handicap or
embarrassment upon an institution
which, having accepted the invita
tion to make use of the Scout Pro
gram, sees fit to confine the mem
bership of the troop to boys who
are in some way connected with
the institution.
(In principle the' foregoing ap
plies to every kind of institution
with which Boy Scoot troops are
officially connected.)

Another great improvement in
the state prison activitie3 was an
nounced yesterday by. Warden A.
M. Dalrymple. after .h had SetFa
gang of convicts ;.t . uvk on the
preliminaries to i.',.;- construction
of a brick gar. ;,e hich will br'
40 by 120 feet ia dimension?.
Heretofore all prison trucks
have been kept out in the wsathsr.
and with the. completion of the
new building this will be elimin
ated. Prisoners began to stake
out the site and to dump old de
bris that had accumulated in the
prison yards during recent years,
as the site of, t he garage is about
four feet lower than the road.
The new gArage will rise at the
northwest corner of the prison
walls. Trucks will drive down
the road leading around the walls
of the institution directly into the
garage, leaving the road where it
makes a turn toward the ea3t.
The floor of the garage will be
solid concrete while the remainder
will consist of brick, made by the
institution. The location of the
garage, will serve a double pur
rose, according to Warden Dal
rymplc. First it wilMake the con
gestion off the state road leading
to the state hospital, over which
many visitors drive, and second it
will be under direct observation
from the guard occupying . the
nearest tower. People driving be
tween the Vxo Institutions have
often mistaken the old garage
for a public business.
For years Warden Dalrymple
has cast a disdainful eye toward
the old garage. This will be re
modeled, according to his present
plans, and serve as sleeping quar
ters for guards or be rebuilt for
apartment purposes, in which
event the rooms will be rented to
guards who' have their families
with them. 'j.
The old triangular space, now
occupied by trucks, will be en
closed with a low retaining wall,
filled with good dirt and planted
to shrubbery.
