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

which he sells to butcher shops, ho

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.

STATE AND DISTRICT PRESIDENT
VISIT LEGION AUXILIARY UNIT
Mrs. Gladys Turnbull, state presi
dent of the American Legion Auxil
iary, and Mrs. Georgia McCJintock,
president of district No. 6, visited
the Hermiston Unit at its regular
meeting last Thursday night. Both
speakers were introduced by the
president of the local Unit Mrs. L.
C. Todd.
Mrs. Turnbull commented upon
the spirit of Americanism displayed
by the local Americanism chairman
who condemned the organization of
“Future Gold Star Mother’s” clubs
and “Veterans of Future Wars,”
clubs by university students on our
American college campuses.
She continued her talk by saying
that the child welfare and hospital
work of the state department had
doubled this year and that the
“check a month” club was making it
possible for this work to be carried
on after the budget allowance has
been exhausted.
Mrs. Turnbull pointed out that the
Legion and Auxiliary was working
shoulder to shoulder with the Red
Cross in the flood sttricken areas
and that contributions were coming
in from Units and Posts in the state
in a splendid way.
The president urged that all Aux
iliary members express their appre
ciation for courtesies extended the
Legion by radio broadcasting sta
tions for free time allotted the de
partment, by sending in cards to the
radio stations. The state department
has the largest membership in its
history she said, with 5200 members
by convention time this fall. Five
new Units have been organized in
the past few months, she said, and
the work is progressing .
Mrs. Turnbull told of the work of
Mrs. Webber in the state hospital
in Porttland in carrying out her
"family contact plan" and what
good she accomplished.
Mrs. McClintock urged all mem
bers to attend the district conference
to be held in La Grande. April 30.
Vocal numbers were given by a
trio composed of Virginia Todd.
Francis Follett and Martha Cald-
well, and Velma Amsberry pleased
