Page Six THE BEAVEKTON TIMES 7ft A ffrp(T MORSE EML JUAN ML BEAVERTON EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT COME AND HAVE A GOOD TIME ! BOY SCOUT DOINGS. . Saturday afternoon March 22nd, further Second Class Scout Tests were conducted. Albert Rossi, Pa trol Leader of the Bob White Patrol ' and Earnest Masters of the Crow 'Patrol successfully negotiated the mile at Scouts Pace. Class then proceeded to residence of Scout Mas ter where test of fire building and cooking without utensile was held. In this test Raymond Rossi and Fred Stump of the Bob White Patrol also participated. Each Scout's careful preparation to start a fire was rewarded with success, only one match used by each of the Scouts in getting a fire going with which to cook his meat and potatoes. Mother never cooked meat and potatoes so luscious. . Mrs. Cook served milk to add to the banquet. Other Scouts present were Archibald Masters Pa trol Leader and his Crows, Leston Falrweather, Wesley Cook and Percy Pry. Other Bob Whites attending the ceremonies were Gordon Lindsay and Lawrence Hughson. , Scout Lawrence Fitzpatrick, unassigned was also on hand. Around a troop ' fire these Scouts cooked their meat and potatoes. George Wilson, a pros pective candidate, was a welcome spectator and we tried to prevail up- on him to taste our cooking, know ing, if he did, we would have him landed for our troop; but he said he wasnt hungry. Later we find he grew hungry and intends to eat Scout cooking and the Scout work in general and is coming to our council this coming Saturday night all pre pared to qualify as a Tenderfoot Scout Wesley Cook as part of his First Class Test has selected this candidate, whom he must aid in the Scout work. In the evening preceding the meet ing Edward Boring and Fred Stump made the mile at Scout's pace; Ed ward also passing the window test. Of the mile test special mention is due Scouts Earnest Masters and Fred Stump each making it in the exact time ic, 12 minutes. At regular meeting Lawrence Fitzpat rick was given the Tenderfoot Test and the manner in which he respond ed indicates that he had applied him self to his manual. The Crow Patrol elected Leston Fairweather as Assistant Patrol Leader. Candidates Cecil Emmons, Lawrence Hughson, Jacob Schmidt and Lawrence Fitzpatrick having passed their Tenderfoot Test, pledg ed their allegiance to the National Flag and subscribed to the Scout Oath. Decorations with badge of Tenderfoot were ,then conferred by Scoutmaster. The earnest study and application on the part of Wesley voxiicu miu uixvugu every re quirement necessary to become a Second Class Scout and he was fit tingly rewarded by being decorated with emblem of that rank. Other Scouts are close behind Wesley, but the honor of having the first Second Class Scout to qualify for a long period belongs to the Crow Patrol through the personal efforts of Wes ley. A few Bob Whites are right close by as well as some more Crows. If you hear the Crows crowing you now know the reason. The absence of our Scribe George Thompson and Philip Thompson of the Bob White Patrol is noted. George was also Asst. Patrol Leader j of the Bob Whites. ' It is to be hoped they will continue in the Scout movement at Hillsboro where they will make their future home. They were both of Second Class rank and capable of qualifying for First Class with a little serious application. Hope to hear of their passing the test in the near future. Our troop will nave to elect a scribe next meeting, and the . Bob White Patrol select a new Asst. Pa trol Leader to Succeed George.

"I was thoroughly inoculated by the "hatch early doctrine of the poultry specialist,'' says a Corval- lis back-lotter, "but here" it is the middle of March and I can't get a cluck from a single hen of 18 Barred rocks, too. Big poultrymen can afford incubators, but I guess III have to follow the Chinese method of hatching and get the women to carry the eggs' around in their clothes." BANK OF BEAVERTON Bearer-ton.
