The automobilist who has keen sense and good brakes heeds the warn ing. lie gets around the turn with out anything happening to him. The speed maniac, or the man whose brakes are out o f order, keeps right on. And we usually read of one or both in the accident columns of the newspapers, sooner or• later. The road we all must take is pretty well marked with warnings, although it takes experience to read some of them. I f we have the brake called will power, and keep It in trim, we have nothing to fear from the dangerous places. I f our judgment is bad and oar will power likely to give way we never get where we are going, except in u very badly damaged condition. There is no occasion for such great hurry that the warning signs must be over-run. On the road to wealth, and especial ly the road to pleasure, the warnings are very abundant. Yet thousands and thousands of people run past them every day, with the usual disastrous results. There is little enough time in the average life. We must all work rap idly if we are to get a good lifetime's work accomplished in the working years that are allotted us. But we can always slow down at the risky corner, provided we keep our will power in condition, and use the Judgment that ought to he a part of our make-up. Tlie "too much play” turn in the road is more dangerous than the “ too much work" corner, but it is well to slow up at both of them. Then tlie “ overindulgence” nnd “ late hour" spots call for almost a halt. Read all the signs and observe them. It is delightful to siieed ulong the road nnd feel that we shall get where we are going in jig time. But many speeders who do not see or heed the warnings, never get where they are going at all. And when they are plied up in Uie hospital or the sanitarium or told by a grave-fuced doctor to hid their fami lies a last good-by, th«N' begin to see the sense in stringing these signs along the road, and to wish they had kept their brakes in order.

C. ) So A GLORIOUS OUTING Tramp, tramp, tramp— dignified and quiet—tramp, tramp, tramp—sturdy and bronzed, into Xutlonnl Headquar ters on July 22 walked 00 hardy lads, packs on their backs and the spell of tlie out-of-doors about them, fresh from a Hike of 225 miles through the state of New York. To Scout Executive W. F. Abriel, hoy lover and outdoor enthusiast, the credit Is due for the 850-mile trip en joyed by these 00 honor scouts of Trenton, N. J. For months before the great trip, a merit system was In prac tice among the scouts at Trenton. Semi-weekly hikes were made of 12 and 15 miles. Personal health and correct diet were stressed. The 60 boys ranking highest In physical fit ness nnd efficiency in scouting were selected for the trip. Trenton hade them Godspeed when on July 10 they left in autos for New York City. There they took the boat for Albany where the hiking began. Up to Fort Ticonderoga they pushed, sleeping out of doors each night, cook ing their meals in the open, stopping for rest periods nnd practice of swim ming and scoutcraft—but always with an objective point to reach each day. Scout Executive Abriel had hiked the entire distance twice In advance of the trip, arranging every detail. Albany, W a t e r t o w n , Stillwater, Scliuylerville, Fort Edward, Saratoga, Schenectady, Sabbath Day Point, Fort Ticonderoga—these were among the stopping points. At each plnce con tingent's of local scouts met the party and entertainments were carWed out, the Trenton lads’ own fife and drum corps doing its share. : The historic points of the famous ground they covered were explained hy the scout leaders and educational side tours, such as visits to tlie Gen eral Electric plant at Schenectady, the Capitol and the Educational build ing at Albany, were features of the trip. Not one boy was sick, although the sun and rain vigorously challenged the scouts. Enthusiasm for perfect scout- craft reigned; tents were pitched with flawless precision; tests were passed wherever opportunity presented Itself to advance in scouting rank. Twenty- one merit badges were won. Besides Scout Executive Abriel and the scouts, four adult leaders were In the party. In commenting on the trip, Mr. Abriel said, “To me th!« is real scout ing—a combination of work and play that brings to the boys the love of the out-of-doors. It# wholesomeness and Joy, with the opportunity to learn to work together generously and help fully, each for all, all for each.” This Itinerant camp was called "Camp Ktwanis" in honor of Trenton Ktwantana who art backing the scout movement In thqlr city.
