auto mechanic, radio operator, clerk,
typist, etc. These schools are not
compulsory, but men are encouraged
to attend them.
Nowhere In the world can a man
get better physical training than in
the army. This training la calculated
to build up the moderately weak
man and strengthen the stronger
man. Medical authorities lay great
atress on army physical training.

that on account of the training, one

five yeara to the life or the average
young man.

"Westward, Hoi" was the cry of
Crater Lake Council scouts today as
they started on the last lap of their
Journey.
After breakfast Saturday all march,
ed to the Bureau of Printing end
Engraving building In Washington.
The boys were given a chance to see
millions of dollars In currency. They
were shown how every denomination
of currency from the one dollar to
the 9100,000 bill, also they were shown
how postage stamps are printed and
mede ready for the public.
Following the visit to this building
the scout were given free time in
which to buy some souvenirs or to
see some other buildings In Wash
ington, D. C. '
Before train time all the scouts
went to see the United States Justice
building, one of the most beautiful
sights in Washington, D. C. It is
constructed of pure white mtrble.
which Is so bright when the sun
shines on tt that a person can hardly
look straight at It.
The train, bearing the scout pull
ed out at 4:30 p. m. headed for Chi
cago as the first stop. States paased
through on this stretch. Included :
Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indi
ana and Illinois.
At Chicago, the scouts checked
their baggage at the Knickerbocker
hotel and after breakfast marched !
to the Shedd Aquarium and the Field i
Museum of Natural History. Several
hours were spent In these two build- I
Inge. Main attraction was the aquar- I
turn.
At 3 p. m'. a bus picked up the i
scouts from the museum for a two
and a half-hour tour through the ,
city. Many historical sites and parks
were seen. Anybody that has not seen i
these parks has missed part of Chi
cago. There are about 300 altogether.
The aquarium and museum are lo
cated on the former World's fair site.
All that remains of what was the
World's fair la one of the large sky
ride towers. This Is now being used

the boys, as they leave the train, on
a sight-seeing tour throughout the
city. Also the company will give the
boys a free swim. Lunch on this dsy
will be eaten at a beach hotel.
In the afternoon the scout execu
tives of San Francisco are planning
a hike for the boys. From the list of
things to be" done In San Francisco,
you can see why they are anxious to
get there.
Mr. Hull got a telegram at Cobre,
Nevada, from the Standard oil com
pany, in San Francisco, telling Just
what we are going to do.
The boys passed their time In many
different ways when traveling on the
two-day stretch of flat country in the
mld-weat. In one scat you might see
Chris Baker asleep. Here is Reed Cox
polishing shoes, or there Is Walter
Kresse arguing with Dale Throck
morton about a certain game In which
Kresse says he Is absolutely right.
Many checkerboards have sprung
up along the way and there are
about a half dozen checkerboards on
the train now. Also there re two
chess boards present. One of the fa
vorite battle cries 1 given by some
scout parading -up and down the
aisle of the train with the checker
board under his arm 'and crying,
"who'll challenge the champion to a
game of checkers?"
Many of the boys also pass their
time In reading magazines.

taken the boys through the following
