Biggs. Editor and Manager. Motor to Seattle. Entered *a Second Claes Matter D ecem ber, 1906, at the poatolflce at Her miston, Um atilla County, Oregon. Subscription Rate* Thia is the season of the year when the small boy gets the most out of life. Adolescent juveniles of today may go in for golf and tennis, for motoring or more or iess decorous bathing par ties in more or less modest costumes, but the small boy who hasn’t yet any “teen” in his age gets his summer fun in just about the way we did, and our fathers and grand fathers before us. At least, if he doesn’t, he is missing something of real value in his life and education. It is one thing for a boy to go to a carefully supervised summer camp or to study scientific woodcraft under the tutelage of a scoutmaster. It is quite another thing for him to roam around the woods and pastures barefooted, accumulating sunburn and stonebruises and an immense amount of lore about the habits of mud-turtles and garter snakes. Game laws mean nothing in his young life. He can get more of a thrill fishing for bullheads and sunfish in the old millpond than your fancy sportsman with his split bamboo rod and hand-tied flies ever experienced. And when it comes to bathing, all the beaches in the world can’t compare with the old swimmin’ hole, where you never had to bother with a swimming suit, where girls were strictly banned, and where you didn’t need a spring board to dive from. No man has ever truly lived who hat not experienced the sensation of a “belly-flop” that pretty nearly knocked the wind out of him! We do not learn about the world we live in through eyes and ears alone. We learn through our hands and our feet the feel of sun and wind and rain on our bare bod ies, the squash of mud between our toes, the heft of a hickory limb compared with a willow branch. Only such intimate contacts with nature can establish a background against which life can be viewed in later years in its true perspective. Do boys still whittle whistles out of young willow shoots? You hammer the bark gently with the handle of your Barlow knife—only it’s your Boy Scout knife in these days and the bark peels off in a perfect cylinder which needs only to have the wood whittled to the proper shape and reinserted, to make a whistle to which any dog will respond. We had almost forgottne the dog. He is needed to make the picture complete. A boy, a dog, a jacknife, in the country in the summer— that is the combination which provides the only perfee' happiness most of us ever had or will have.
