On Sunday morning they are busy passing tests and making their last ef fort toward the merit badges they hope to obtain. Many fall just a lit tle short and are more determined to put just a little more time and thought toward its completion. At 10:00 o’clock they gather for church servi ces which are held on the side hill with the great beautiful outdoors for their cathedral. A wooden cross, made of limbs from the neighboring tree, graces the altar. The boys of Catho lic faith are taken to the nearest town for their worship. To see these boys, worshipping God and receiving His inspiration under the blue sky, sur rounded by the beauties and wonders of His making, is a touching sight. Following the church service, the court of honor was held. At this time, they reap the rewards of their past efforts. Many boys received as many as five awards, which indicated that they had not been too idle or unmind ful of their responsibilities. This is the time when the full meaning and value of their achievements is felt. Enough praise cannot be given to this valuable organization. The part it plays in the life of these boys at the time when it is so mportant that they be learning the principles embodied in their Scout Oath—“On my honor, I will do my best—To do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight”—can never be over-estimat ed. When a boy attends Scout meet ing and repeats these things over and over, it cannot help but have consider able influence on his habits and char acter. When he memorizes the Scout Law—A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obe dient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, reverent—he cannot help but grasp a finer and truer meaning in living, and feel a personal pride in being a part of an organization that'embraces such worthy ideals. To violate this law, is an act unworthy of a Scout. and he may be called upon to forfeit his Scout badge. To attend these summer camps is considered a pleasure and privilege. To the good citizens of Hermiston who so generously contributed to the support of this most worthwhile orga nization, the Scouts feel deeply in debted. They may not personally thank you, but deep inside they know they have benefitted by their attend ance and know someone was responsi ble. Visit a camp whenever possible and receive the same inspiration and enjoyment. Those attending from Troop 56 of Hermiston were Paul Pierson, Leo Keller. Tommy Schoonover, Vern and Wilbur Hunt. Charlie Laury and Dick and Jack Belt.

Prices paid to growers, grade re- quirements and method of purchase are practically unchanged from last year’s program, through which nearly 100 million pounds of Oregon seed was handled. Hungarian vetch, which was purchased last year, is not in eluded on the schedule released I to county AAA offices this week and will not be eligible under the 1943 program.
