dismissed and march in silence again
to their bunks.
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.
GOVERNMENT TO
PURCHASE AAA
AGAIN THIS YEAR
We wish to express our appreciation
for the fine work of the Hermiston Fire
Department and the spirit of cooperation
shown by all in helping us during and after
the disastrous fire loss we had early Mon
day morning.
It is our intention to open for operation
again as soon as humanly possible. It will
take a few weeks to disperse damaged
goods and replace our shelves with new
merchandise. It is our wish that we may
serve you again very soon.
