Heppner Herald. V. ,C.Gorst of Marshfield has invented a land and water boat Richlandjs.wprkingto get a hospital. The time has arrived when big business is going to investigate the government and see why two bit politicians are allowed to ex. pend public money in a reckless ton and Idaho legislatures says: "Economy must be the watch word. The legislators will do well to remember always that they represent, not themselves, but their constituents. The peo ple are likely this winter to keep close tab on their legislatures. It is their duty and their advantage to do so." Boy Scout Notes The organization of the boy scouts is being conducted person ally by the Scout Master. There is a great deal of red tape about joining the troop, but this is re quired so that the scout master may be satisfied as to the qualifi cations of the applicant The organization of the boy scouts here is to be known as the Monmouth Troop of Boy Scouts No. 1. The troop is to be com posed of two patrols, each patro having 8 members. If more than 16 boys apply for membership a new patrol will be organized One patrol has been organized and called the Eagle patrol, with Fisher as. patrol leader. Ear Williams successfully passed the tenderfoot examination Monday and became the first legal tender foot To be a real scout means the doing of a good turn every day with the proper motive, and if this be done, the boy has a right to(be classed with the great scouts that have been of such service to their country. To ac complish this a scout should ob serve the scout law. There is an idea prevalent among some people that the boy scout organization is a military organization and that it trains the boy to become a soldier. We deny this. In fact the boy scouts stand for peace and for citizenship, and you parents that believe such, what more are vou doing than we are doing to keen your boy from going to war If war was to be declared in the U. S. a national law compels everv able-bodied man between the age of 18 and 45 to go to war if called upon, and a boy scout, because of his previous training in scout craft would not be more likely to be called upon to cotnu ar than he who is not a boy scout im whether war be declared or not the boy scout will make a much better citizen than the boy wno has not had this training. The boy gangs on the street corner seem innocent enough, but what of the future? The boy gangster of today is the gunman of tomorrow. Our. young boys of today are going to be our citi zens of tomorrow. Is VOtir hnv Koing to be the good citizen or the gunman! No. boy who is a tfood boy scout can be anvthino- other than a noble and useful citizen. , , Last Saturday the bov enjoyed a trip to Inderal f w VI v. iivv PURPOSE: FACULTY: DEPARTMENTS: The training of teachers for professional work.

A. C. boys of Corvallis. The speakers subject was "A Boy Scout is Clean," be ing the eleventh law of the boy scouts. He showed us how to be clean bodily and spiritually, to be clean in thought, speech, sport, habits and morals. He showed the disastrous results of moral degradation. On all the boy scout hikes, the scout master and the patrol leaders are wholly responsible for the boys welfare and conduct "Be prepared" is the motto of the boy scouts. Be prepared to prevent panics, fires to rescue the drowning, to know the first aids. . ; , Juror List For Justice District No. 5, 1915, Polk Co.', Ore.
