Ashland residents will turn out
tor the Engle Scout Court of
Honor thia Friday evening. The
winning of even one Eagle Scout
budge by a troop in an event in
the life of uny troop ,but to have
three uil ut one tune, and with a
fourth only u few months ago,
makes the locul troop an out
standing organization.
Scouting is very strong in Ash-
lund, und could be even stronger
were the trained udult leaders
available to take cure of them.
The boys are willing but the
adults generally are not, und us a
result only two troops are main
tained in the Ashland urea.
To those unfamiliar with the
scout work, it might be pointed,
out that to attain an Eagle Scout
rank, a boy must pass through ull
the stuges of tenderfoot, second
and first class ranks, have two
years of service in scouting und
have earned u minimum of 21
merit badges. If uny one thinks
thut it does not take a lot of
work to do that, we ask them to
try it. There are very few adult
scouters who have had the per-
serverunce and patience to win
such a runk, ulthought the same
rating is available to adult scout
leaders.
A lot of credit is due, to those
heading the scout movement in
Ashland ,to Dick Trites, as scout
master and chairman of the dis
trict, to Allen Byrd us scoutmast
er of Tioop 14, and to the troop
committeemen of both troops.
They give up a lot of evenings
and time to help out in the work.
A good turn out would certainly
be an act of appreciation for then-
efforts atyl a vote of confidence
in the boys. Let’s go!
