I As a further aid in raising the | standards of the Boy Scouts of Amer-1 j ica and improving the appearance of; ] scouts wearing the uniform, it is ! recommended that a system of fre quent Inspection of every troop bc ; developed and that no boy be per j mitted tp successfully pass an ex amination unless his uniform is I properly put on and thoroughly | clean. Soap and water will not in jure the Boy Scout uniform if used; lin accordance with the directions in our various publications. The) practice of allowing boys to appear, at a troop Meeting or on the public] thoroughfare or even in camp In n! uniform which shows evidence of undeanlini'.ss is not conducive to the; best training of the boy or helpful! to the reputation of the Boy Scouts! of America and is a direct violation of the Scout Law with reference to cleanliness.

While it is impossible at this rime io give any details with reference to the next loan, it seems to be the consensus of opinion that the Boy ' Scouts of America ihould undertake [ to do exactly as ihey did in the iirst Joan. Same as First There will be uome modification ; in the size and form of the printed matter and the method of distribu- I tion, but in all other respectd the i details will be practically the same j as In the first campaign. All Scout officials are urged to mobilize their troops without delay > and with the aid of the material in the Jun.e Ist Issue of Scouting definitely plan the most effective , method of reaching the largest i number of people and securing the ! greatest number of subscriptions to i the 3econd liberty loan. Judging from the claims filed for ! war service emblems, more than ten J thousand boys will receive such emblems.

In pre paring for the second loan, how ever. there will be no excuse for an.* of these handicaps. It is now the privilege of every troop of scouts io command the time and co-operation of the very best banking talent m their community for the purpose jl giving detailed instructions to the boys in practical talks on salesiuan tihip. It is urgently recommended that every troop plan two or more spe cial meetings devoted largely to the consideration of ways and means of making their work count for the greatest possible service to our country in connection with Libertr Loan Number Two. Now is the time to prepare. Let us all live up to our motto: Be pre pared and do our best to double the amoun.t of subscriptions secured in the next loan through the efforts of members of the Boy Scouts of America.

The city sweltering in the white glare of a scorching mid-August sun. In the heart of the business district .the torrid rays poured down between the tall buildings and rose again ir. quivering heat waves front the as phalt in the narrow valley. In a vain effort to shut out the tierce heat, the shades were drawn on the office windows and the room was in a state of semidarkness. Persistent flics with their dismal buzzing added 1 'fo the discomfiture and the force which had so frequently been com-1 plimented for their efficiency and' lively activity was now a sorry sight.' The printing machine which under j the pressure of Nut's foot usually | ran with a steady, rattling Bang'- ] Bang! Bang!, now gave forth onlyi an occasional lazy "Clamp! Bang! Clamp! Bang!. The busy rattle and staccato of the graphotype operated 1 by Doggie's energetic thump degen erated into a poor little click, click, and stopped altogether when the perspiring operator switched off the current and turned wearily to look at: Red. The crimson topped individual \ sat on the edge of a table with his ! feet swinging in schoolboy fashion j to the whistled tune of the Suwanee j River, while an ever growing pile of ' line orders and disconnections lay I forgotten at his side. "Say fellows," began Doggie, "Do you know where I'd like to be?" "Under the Equator or somewhere like that; some place where a fellow can get real watni once I guess," drawled Snubbs as he twisted lazily in his chair. "Wrong," answered Doggie. "I'd like to he in the Boy Scout Camp just across the river from my home at New Buffalo. Say fellows, just think how the tall green trees are swaying in the summer breeze. Crows are cawing up there In the deep, blue sky." "Shut up!" growled Harper. "Rave on!" was Nut's comment. "Blue jays are scolding in the tree SEPTEMBER 7, 1917. ory written by local Boy Scouts ise they are close to home, will be 5 until its completion. It will prob tops and those 'kids' are splashing in the cool waters of the Susquehanna to their heart's content—Oh man!" "Some dream Doggie, now get to ■work," said Johnson as he took his feet from their resting place on his desk. Wrinkles indicating laborious thought were appearing on Red's brow and suddenly the Suwanee ceased to flow. "Say gang, I have an idea!" "Impossible!" came in chorus. Fact," said Red. "Listen." Matter of office efficiency and of fice deportment occupied but little space in Red's thoughts, but now he launched away into a world which he claimed as his own. The force gath ered around the table and listened in rapt attention. "Can we do it?" was the question that came at the end of Red's dis course. "Why certainly you poor simps. This is Thursday. Saturday we go. Each fellow get a pair of khaki trousers, puttees, blanket and cook ing utensils. Now for the eats. Oat meal, weeners, bacon, buns, Camp bell's soup, tlour, coffee, salt, a bill of about twenty cents for each fel low with water, firewood, fresh air appetites and scenery all thrown in free of charge." Snubbs was vigorously rubbing Red's head by this time. "Red old boy, I always said there was some thing under that crimson dome of yours." Doggie with a deep bow paid his compliments to the "King of Dream ers." After two eternally long davs of anxious waiting Saturday finally rolled Along and the afternoon found us laden with blankets, food and cooking utensils hiking along a country road. The sun glared down on us with merciless rays, the dust flower bedecked tables of fashion able grills and elite city cafes.
