Scout Calendars To Be Given to Local Youngsters All cubs, scouts and explorer scouts of Jackson and Josephine counties will receive official Boy scout calendars next year, H. D. Chistcnsen, president of Crater Lake Area council, announced today. The calendars are from the original painting by the noted painter, Norman Rock well. They portray a cub, boy scout, explorer, air and sea scout facing together a "bright future for our country in spite of the storm clouds that hang over the world today." Through scouting, these young men will be able to help to build a greater country and a better understanding of the world in the future, Christensen said. Every registered boy will re ceive one of the pictures to hang in his home as a daily reminder of his part of the responsibility of living in our country and the world. 'We are grateful to tha Mc- lain Drug company of Medford and Grants fuss tor making these calendars available to all our young men and In helping us do a better job of scouting in the Crater Lake Area council , Christensen stated. "This will be the first year that so large a number of these calenders will be made available to the scouts in these two counties. McLain's will also make these calendars available to other homes outside of those in the boy scout pro gram. All public and private schools, city and county otiic ers will receive special Boy scout calendars." he said. The calendar has had the largest distribution of any in the United States over a period of several years. The calendar of the Dionne quintuplets has been the closest of any other calendar in numbers placed in homes.
