A strict injunc g on grado work also in- Hon enforced by the movement is that ho may work for pay, but he must not receive tips Tor cour tesies or a good turn. Tho move ment is non-military, although it tries to instill into the boys the military virtues, such as honor, loyalty, obedience and patriotism. Tho boys are taught scout crart, which includes instructions in first aid, lire-saving, tracking, signaling, cycling, nature study, seamanship, eampcraft, wood craft and chivalry and patriotism. All of which is accomplished in games and team play. I" Mr. Welker has had considera ble experience in training boys and will give them instructions in all kinds of athletics, wireless telegraphy, etc. It is the inten tion to place a wireless instru ment on the roof of Tho Times Herald building Tor that purpose. Among other features that at tract the boys is a camping trip of several days in the mountains. Julian Ryrd's summer home 1(5 miles from Hums in the moun tains has been tendered the boys for this occasion. It is a pretty place of 1120 acres covered with pine and several fine springs bubbling out (r the rocks. Quak ingasp groves in the deep canyon ror ideal camps besides the log cabins. Dr. Rabbidge is to be a companion or the boys on their tramps and all sports and will hold the position or chaphin. It is also the intention to have a doctor join tho Roy Scouts on their various trips. Tonawama Theatre has been turned over to the boys ror head quarters and they are to have free use of the house under Mr. Welkor's direction. Tho build ing will be used to get the boys started in variousdrills, etc.. etc. which will be later used in their outdooi sports. It is an excellent move for the boys of Rums and vicinity and practically every boy of the age should and likely will join. l'IOM:f:K STOCKMAN llliAl).
