Scouting In Basin
Area At Ail-Time
High on Anniversary
The 34th anniversary of the
Boy Scout movement finds
scouting in the Klamath area
at an all time high with every
indication that it will remain
that way. Enrolled in Klamath
basin troops today are 431
scouts from 12 years of age up
to 17 years. Over 200 boys are
enrolled as cubs, these boys
ranging from 8 through 11 years
of age. Two Cub packs are
now in the process of organiza
tion and two troops are also
forming as of this date.
As a practical example of
what has been done to meet
community needs, the Altamont
St. Francis park area of Klam
ath Falls is an example. A sur
vey in this area over a year
ago showed that about 80 boys
were interested in being scouts
in an area where there was no
Boy Scout program. Today three
troops in the neighborhood are
reaching more than 100 boys
with a new Cub Pack recently
enrolling 50 boys in the young
er boy program. These programs
are under the sponsorship of the
First Church of God, the Alta
mont Community Presbyterian
church, and the Church of
Christ of Latter Day Saints, in
the order of their sponsorship.
The new Cub pack is sponsor
ed by the Altamont Community
Presbyterian church to work
with its scout troop. The lead
ers are: William Van Cleave,
Troop 2, Harold Ashley, Troop
8, and C. E. Peterson, Troop 10.
The cubmaster of Pack 8 is Al
Satterlee.
Definite plans have been
made for 1945 by James Patter
son, chairman of organization
and extension for the basin area,
to reach 119 more boys by the
end of 1945 for a total of 550
scouts and an enrollment of 332
cubs. This will mean a grand
total of 882 boys participating
In the scouting program in this
area.
While scouting does not pre
tend to correct juvenile delin
quency, it has been proven one
of the finest preventative meas
ures. More troops of scouts
will mean fewer boys in trouble
In coming - years. Any respon
sible institution or group of
citizens may sponsor a scout
troop. More than 200 men are
serving In some capacity to
make this program possible to
day. A thousand boys could
easily be enrolled in local
scouting if a few more institu
tions and adults were prepared.

TO RETURN TO U. S.
God Not A Police
Judge
The Gospel does not picture
God as a police iudep. waiting
to send sinners to hell. The Gos
pel says laoa is long-suffering,
of tender mercy and loving
kindness. And that he proved
his love in that while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Such is the Gospel and this is
the Gospel age.
When the roll-call of the re
deemed is completed, Christ is
to return and raise His people
from the grave into the bodies
of glory and also His own who
are alive on earth at the time.
Then He is to set up a warless
world and at the end of a thou
sand years, raise -the lost dead
for judgement.
KNOW THIS WORD
God breathes his own eternal
. self Into your heart when you
stand on the word JUSTIFIED.
JUSTIFIED says that all the
sins of your life are blotted out
by the blood of Christ you
stand as sinless in God's holy
eyes as the angels in heaven.
. God said it Your heart be
lieves it That settles it.
Stand on it that you are JUS
TIFIED your sins blotted out
and God clothes you in his
own God-righteousness. Romans
3:21. Your sins on Christ and
God's .righteousness on you.
From then on God works cease
lessly to make you Christlike in
thought, word and deed.
"He that believeth on the Son
hath eternal life. He that be
lieveth not the Son, shall not
see life, but the wrath of God
' sbideth on him." John 3:36.
