SCOUTING NOTES i All Boy Scouts are urged to see ! that their uniforms nnd equiment are in good condition for the -scout rally next Friday. When demon strating scoutcraft to the public it should always be the aim of all troops to present a neat, attractive appearance. On some occasions scouts have been criticised for ap pearing slouchy. Every effort should bo made on this, our first big Rally Day, to appear in spic and span condition. Scouting means more than Just /belonging" to an organization. The boy who undertakes to become a scout must continually work to achieve higher standards and re sults. The obligation to "do a good turn daily" is not one to be lightly overlooked, and when cheerfully and conscientiously carried out brings rewards in the future by in -1 stilling those principles of service upon which nearly ail modern busl ! ness enterprises are founded. The practical knowledge gained from his scoutcraft enables the boy to react to physical opportunities as they may open before him in his lifo's pathway and makes him, ! thus, a more efficient citizen. It is unfortunate that some boys cannot always realize that their ob ligations amount to something more than words. The case of a troop in which six boys recently disobeyed the instructions of their scoutmas ter ought never to be duplicated in Harrisburg scouting. That the boys were suspended from the organiza tion until the first of the year, and therefore deprived of the privilege of entering the big rally is of minor importance. Discipline, of course, must be maintained, but scouting must be carried to a plane where every member will appreciate his personal relation to the whole move ment and will accept his full obli gations in the spirit as well as the letter of the law and act on them | accordingly. Scoutmasters will be glad to know | that, nrore and more, national head ! quarters is reaching out into the field for practical suggestions from individual scoutmasters. It should mean much to the future of the scout program, for the men in the field are the ones who really are up against concrete scouting problems, and generally speaking they have their answers well worked out. RALLY WILL BE HELD NEXT WEEK Roys Are Scouring Equipment So They Will Present Neat Appearance Next week, boys, Instead of read ing about the coming Scout Rally and Demonstration, you'll be out there pulling her off. That is, un less the weatherman acts up; and it is said by one of the "old inhabit ants" Jhat we can count on pretty good weather during the period our Rally comes off. Each Boy Scout should constitute himself an advertising medium dur ing the coming week and should talk the Rally to every tyie he knows and comes in contact with. Remember it is for the benefit of the general public that this demonstration is be ing given and we want an excellent representation of the public at Is land Park, if it is at all possible to get them there during these strenu ous war times. It is highly impor tant that each boy do his bit to wards the publicity end of the stunt, as each boy ought to be good for at least two spectators, and with 500 in the event there would be a nucleus of 1,000 Interested watchers. This is your last week for prep aration. Get the rough spots off your metht*l of bakfng twist; steam up on those relay races; clip oft a few seconds in the Equipment Race; steady up on the First Aid routine; get together and—Let's go! Cooking and Signalling Practiced Troop 20 took an interesting hike to Rockville on Saturday, with a good attendance. Fire building was practiced together with cooking and signalling. The.scouts returned by trolley. The troop is making every effort to get in trim for Rally Day, which is but one week atoay. Scouts are asked to watch their bulletin board for announcements which may be made at any time. G. PARK WEAVER. Acting Scribe.

HARRISBURG t&mte TELEGRAPH! Days on the Open Road ii By Red Cloud and Lone Star (Continued) "Salute your partner," calls the leader, "Lady to the left! Ready Promenade!" Around we go as the fiddle screeches and the dancers hum in the Hay." "Balance all!" shouts the leader. "Turkey in the Straw," answers the fiddle. Bodies are swinging and circling, feet are Hying, eyes aro sparkling, here and there a pair of eyes are bashfully lowered and a rosy cheek grows rosier still as a small hand is given an extroi. squeezo by the rough er and larger hand in which it is held. "Four ladies balance center!" calls the leader. "Mother, mother, my toes are sore," sings the leader. Around and around again, always with bodies swaying to tho rytlim of thhe music go the dancers until tired nnd panting we welcome a rest while another set takes our place. During the intermission, Lem, one of our party borrows the fiddle—not violin if you please—and drawing his inspiration from the swaying boughs overhead and the glory of the summer night, ho holds the crowd spell bound with "Hearts and Flowers" "Traumerei" "Annie Laurie" and 'My Old Kentucky Home.' It is far into the hours of night. The moon goes down and the dark ness of early morning envelopes the earth. The dance ends and as we listen to the merry "Good Night," shouted from the last homeward bound wagon as It fades away into the darkness, we shall leave the past and step again into the year 1917. , The many varied experiences of the road are too numerous to men tion' in this short article. Every trip is filled with new wonders of nature, new faces, new scenery, new friendships, new history and new in cidents. One trip takes lis to the site of a gerat manufacturing plant while the next leads into a valley rich in history nnd romance. This trip takes us to a great armor plate mill and ammunition factory and the next leads us past an old decaying canal lock. Lying in the ditch that was once a national highway is the EXPECT TO TAKE HONORS AT RALLY Troop 7 Is Bubbling Over With Enthusiasm; Orches tra Rehearses The scouts of Troop 7 are boiling over with enthusiasm and anxiety concerning the Big Scout day next Friday afternoon. They expect to take a few honors, too. The organization and first re hearsal of the troop orchestra start ed off with perfect harmony (?) last Tuesday evening at tho troop music hall. Will L. Bailey, assistant scout master, is leader and cornetlst; Blough Dechant, violin; Lloyd Got walt, clarionet; Herman Goldstein, violin; Jacob Stacks, violin; Joseph Goldstein, clarinet; Carl Gingrich, violin; Paul llennlng, piano; Samuel Krebo, cello. i We are glad to state more mu sicians are expected In this orchestra at. the next rehearsal. • Patrol Leaders Carl Gingrich and Rudolph Miller took a hike of con siderable note above Rockvlllo last Saturday in quest of acorns to re duce the high cost of living, to ob serve the beautiful follago of this season and to exert their skill in ad venturous mountain scaling. Their trip was one of real scout adventure, them. GEORGE REINOEHL, Scout Scribe. V. S. JURY IXDICTS PASTOR Minneapolis, Oct. 5.

Send free trial of your method to: hull of an old canal boat decaying under the ravages of weather and time. The rotting timbers are a relic of the days when the gallant Lafay ette traveled over the waterway on his visit to the nation which ho had so valiantly fought to build. Along another road wo find mile stones with half obliterated figures, They were set up in the days of the stage coach and Conestoga wagon when the road was part of the great high way to the golden land of promise, the Ohio Valley and the West. You have beei\ thrilled by tales of the lumber camps of Canada and northern Michigan. Buzzing saws, rough timber bunk-houses, knee length woolen hose, brightly colored Mackinaw shirts, deeds of daring, strong men and winsome maidens are the properties and settings used by writers and stage directors to ap peal to your love of the picturesque and to your imagination. All these can be found in the hundreds of lum ber camps in Pennsylvania and a hike to the camp will be worth the while of any who care to travel along the narrow gauge road that marks the way. The sight of the great kettles hanging over the open fire, tho odor of the cooking dinner, and the oilcloth-covered table hospitably laden with the best tho back woods affords will more than repay one for the day's tramp. The traveler who goes from one ride of the continent to the other in the comfortable depths of his easy chair misses some of the best that America has to offer. Hiking brings one into contact with the people, the scenery and the life that lies miles back of the railroad. The flavory country dinner, the cool shady lane, the beauty of breaking day, the flight of the scarlet tanager across one's path, the babble of the brook, tho sighing of the pine when the wind is In its branches, the lowing of the herd: all these aro the re ward for him who answers the call of nature nnd the call of tho open road. l For him the robin sings his cheery morning song. For him is the beauty of the bluebird's coat. For him the western sky glows red and gold at sunset. For him the thrush pours out his rich melody at the close of day. (To be continued.) THREE-DAY HIKE BEING PLANNED South Mountain Objective of Troop 15; to Study Woodcraft A three days' hike into the South Mountains is planned by the mem bers of Troop 15, lately organized at the -Sixth Street United Brethren Church, Sixth and Seneca streets. Tho troop will assemble at their headquarters on Friday evening at 7 o'clock sharp, and march to Mar ket Square, where they will board a car for Mechanicsburg. Upon reach ing Mechanicsburg they will, after a short visit to Troop 1, of Me chanicsburg. hit the road for an eight-mile hike to a cabtin in the South Mountains in the vicinity of Dillsburg. After spending the night at the cabin they will go for an all-day hike into the mountains where they will practice the arts of woodcraft necessary for the second class scout ing rank. A few of the points of in terest which they will visit are Bea ver Valley ore mines, Rocky Glen, White, Rock, Indian Peg and Black Rock. Troop 15 is one of the youngest, if not the youngest, troop of Scouts in the city, it being organized the early part of July. Its membership consists of twenty-five boys, all of whom, with the exception of three, have passed the tenderfoot tests. The officers of the troop are: Roy J. Shenk, scoutmaster; Walter Me haffle, assistant scoutmaster. Eagle patrol, Norman Boone, lead er; Lawrence Simons, assistant Jeadcr.

Another new feature is go ing to be added, and it is one that should interest every scout. It's a "Nature Study Depart ment" and it is going to appear on the scout page in direct pro portion to tho demand that is created by you, who read this and every other boy scout In Harrisburg and vicinity. This column rwill be in charge of Scoutmaster Edward Manser of Troop 11, who will edit ali that goes .into it. Questions on anything relating to nature study may be submitted by scouts, and Mr. Manser will answer them in the Nature Study Column. Ar ticles will also appear from time to time. Questions should be addressed to — "Editor" Nature Study Column, 200 Calder Bldg. Coal Dealers Face Jail For Gouging the Public Washington, Oct. 6.

SCOUTSCARRY HEAVY KITS Take Hike With Full Equip ment, and Sleep Under the Stars On Saturday evening, September 23, at 8 o'clock, about twenty of the boys of Troop No. 12, of Memorial Lutheran Church, started on an over night hike. The troop loaded with | heavy coats, sweaters, blankets, cooking utensils and other para phenalia, landed at Rockville about 9 o'clock. It was a bright, clear even ing and not so very cold. We made our way into the mountains and lo cated at a suitablo place for camp ing. The ground was cleared of rocks, wood was gathered and we soon had a roaring blaze which lighted the whole mountainside right in the mid dle of our temporary camp. After sitting around the fire for a while, the "sandman" began to creep into the eyes of some of the Scouts and they began rolling themselves in blankets preparing for a genuine sleep in tho starlight which beam ed through the leaves of the trees. Soon others followed until all were enjoying (?) the pleasures of a peaceful rest. About 2 o'clock some of our beds began to get unusually solid, the atmosphere became solder and the uncomfortable few (?) soon had the whole camp in an uproar. In about an hour, however, the fires were rebuilt, everybody was warm and soon all were well advanced into the heart of slumberland only to be again aroused In the early morn by tho extremely rare atmosphere. Breakfast Clinses Frost No more sleep was to be had around a bunch of Scouts, as usual in a Scout camp, be it temporary or permanent, some operation must be going on all the time and, as every one seemed hungry, it was not long until about a dozen fires were in full blaze and the aroma of ham, eggs, potatoes and other vegetables, made all forget that Jack Frost had been so near at hand a few minutes be fore. After breakfast, at which every one ate heartily, we explored the mountains and prepared to return home. Every one was happy and ap parently enjoyed the occasion—S9 much so perhaps, that a few of the boys refused to come along home, thus earning for themselves several months' suspension from the troop, with a loss of their various offices in the troop. By 9 o'clock the rest of us were home again, and, with tho exception of being a little tired and sleepy, were all the better for having had the long-wished for experience ol' spending a night in the open star light.

We are just about to launch a campaign to increase the number of Scouts in our troop, as we feel that the many boys of Scout age loaf ing around the street corners and moving picture houses, could spend more profitable and instructive even ings in the meetings of the B. S. of A. We believe that after the boys begin to see the difference between the educational advantages of the Boy Scouts and those of the street loafers or even other boys' organiza tions, there will be a general rush for the places when vacancies occur in the troops. We invite the parents of boys to look Into the Boy Scout movement and urge them to co-oper ate In interesting their boys In our work. We have our troubles, of course, but we have a great future for no asset of a city is so gfeat s that of splendid manhood and the boys of to-day are the men of J,o morrow. DR. G. A. ZIMMERMAN.
