AMBULANCE FOR SCOUTS.
In recognition o f the good work done
by boy scouts at the time o f the Eddy-
stone disaster, Robert Steele, a retired
financier o f Merlon, Pa., presented an
automobile ambulance and complete
outfit to the boy scouts.
The service which the scouts per­
formed included work at the scene of
the disaster, the directing o f traffic in
the city o f Chester fo r two days, and
the delivering o f scores o f telegrams
to anxious relatives. On the night of
the explosion many o f the boys went
without sleep in order tn perform this
service.

(By G. E. WEAVER, University Farm,

Perhaps it is because the ¿naps from
which children used to learn Bible
geography were on a large scale that
most o f us have failed to realize how
narrow were the limits within which
took place all those great doings that
fill the hooks o f Samuel and Kings.
Just in the same way the classical
scholar who visits Greece is surprised
that so small a territory sufficed .for
so many striking incidents and for
the careers of so many famous men.
