By DAVE COHEN i love it. 1 can't say it's all roses, but there is something so gratifying about being a den moth er." said Mrs. Wallace Estenson, 3004 Boardman Street, who is the den mother of den one pack eight. "it all started about a year ago when the Cub Scouts told me that they needed a new den mother in this neighborhood. I didn't think 1 could do it. with having four chil dren, but since my two boys were cubs at the time, I tried it and 1 like it." In her short time as den moth er, Mrs. Estenson is proudest of the den nouse, built by Uie boys in the bstenson backyard. trict No. 1. He is presently filling i- out the unexpired term of the late Howard Dayton, Tulelake, ending January 1,. 1961. Ager's name will be on the May 16 election ballot. The district he now represents includes McCloud, Hornbrook, Copco, Beswlck, Bogus. Butte Valley and Tulelake and is the largest supervisorial district in California. He has been a resident of Tule lake for 30 years and was the town's first businessman. Hit fam ily has been identified for three generations with Siskiyou County progress. The onetime town of Agcr was named for his grand father. Ager has been a president of the Tulelake Chamber of Commerce, was the first president of the Tule lake Rotary Club and for many years was a businessman and far mer. He is not now actively en gaged in any business, and plans if elected to devote his entire time to the work of the district. DEN MOTHER DUTIES are supervisory as demonstrated by Mrs. Wallace Estenson, 3004 Boardman Street, who is den mother for Den I, Pack 8. These projects started by the boys in. the den will be completed at home, usually with the aid of the parents. A mother of three boys and a girl, Mrs. Estenson became interested in Cub Scouting a year ago when two of her boys entered the organization and another den mother was needed in the neighborhood. A United Fund- organization, the Boy Scouts of America end observ ance of Boy Scout Week and the 48th birthday of the organization February 13. ".My husband told the boys that they couldn't build a shack that we could tear down and they didn't. I guess the most gratifying thing Is the way several companies do nated, lumber and materials, l went out to one firm and asked them for some scraps and they took some No. 1 stock off the racks and gave it to me." She went on to explain that the den mother's home is the site of weekly meetings at which the boys are encouraged to make things and learn to get along together. Mrs. Estenson said that as den mother she germinates an idea and then the boys finish the project at home. Another thing that is done at home is grading the boys' work books by the parents. "The parents are all good about this," she said. "I don't believe that there is any 'fudging' going on." She added that cubbing, more lhan any of the other scout or ganizations brings the family to gether. She reiterated, saying that when these projects are taken home for completion, the parents usually help or when the boys have passed their tests, their books must be signed by parents. "As far as work goes." she con tinued, "we're never at a loss, what our project is going to be. Cubbing works on a monthly basis," she explained. She added that project work is always In keeping with that theme. "This month's theme is a blue and gold banquet to com memorate the anniversary of the Boy Scouts. She concluded by adding that she hopes to continue for many more years in Cub Scouting, an activity that has given her many hours of pleasure. fiaCHif can go nojurtitf- Schcnlcu Kiiiui iisnuiii to. 1. 1 c. until enur, it naif, its tun timm smut' GRADUATES WEED Robert E.
