During the past twenty-six years. approximately 7,000,000 boys and men have been connected with Of those 1,300,000 are Scouting, now active. The graduates, or vet- erans are thus becoming an increas ingly large group—there are almost six million of them. Within the past year various programs have been devised to re-establish or fur ther their contracts with Scouting and its ideals. Older boys and young men have been summoned to special camps and talks, sea units have been planned for them, and from Eng land has come Rover Scouting. The latest progress in this effort has been noted by Dr. James E. West, recently honored on his Twenty- Fifth Anniversary as Chief Execu- tive. In the plans now being pushed for an alumni group, the goal ac cording to Dr. West, is civic better ment. If the Scouting Program can continue its influence on young men between the ages of 15 and 26, if on the simple basis of the Scout Oath and Law and sturdy leadership it can build up character, create a higher civic sense, and help youth find its vocational place, will not a more solid foundation for future ci tizenship be laid? “When I look back now after i twenty-five years,” answers Dr. i West. "I believe I can see the day when Scouting will clear the way for better politics. When a few more Scout-trained generations i are turned out as citizens, the politi cians will be made to realize their civic responsibilities, and the young man of tomorrow will be acutely aware of his debt to his communi- ty.” "We have as a guide a very am- bitious and very challenging pro- gram of growth—our Ten Year Pro- gram.” “This program will assure a citi- zenry a large proportion of whom are motivated by principle and forti fied by strength of character and able to see what their duty is, be cause It basically involves consider ation for the rights of others, and basically Involves co-operation in order that we may really and truly make the world a better place in which to live." A boy of 12 in one of the counties of western Oregon is making his spending money growing parsley which he sells to butcher shops, ho tels, and restaurants. There is a steady demand for this green gar nish and the crop is one that is pro duced over a long season. EASTERN OREGON NORMAL NAMED ACCREDITED COLLEGE. Eastern Oregon Normal School, LaGrande, Ore., April 5 (Special)— With the completion of the new and modern elementary school building and gymnasium on the campus of the Eastern Oregon Normal School, that institution has been fully ac- credited by the American Associa- tion of Teachers Colleges. This in- formation reached President H. E. Inlow this week from Charles W. Hunt, secretary-treasurer of the as- sociation. Two years ago the Amer ican Association of Teachers Col- leges, through President Harry W. Rockwell of the State Teachers of Buffalo, New York, conducted a sur vey of Oregon normal schools. At that time the Eastern Oregon Nor mal school was withheld from accre ditation because of lack of plant fa cilities on the campus. Other fea tures such as faculty preparation. teacher training program, and stu- dent guidance were given high rat- Ing. Upon the completion of the new buildings, which were dedicated in January, the Teachers College Association immediately considered the status of this school, and exten ded full accreditation. In this con nection President Rockwell says: "Certainly all the unfavorable criti cisms which were formerly made re garding the inadequacies of your plant equipment are now out of date.” As a result of this progres sive step the Eastern Oregon Nor mal school takes its place as one of five institutions of higher learning fn the Northwest accredited by the association.
