12 $ NEWS NO NOTES OF THE BOY SCOUTS^ SCOUTS AD IN CONSERVING FOOD Boys Are Doing Much to Aid Nation in Winning the War Boy Scouts all over the country have raised in thousands of gardens plenty of food for homo consump tion and such staples as beans to •hip to the soldiers abroad. The Scout organization has been pretty busy with the Liberty Loan hond campaign, but has turned in for another hard bit of work to help Food Administrator Hoover. Homes can be reached by the Boy Scouts more thoroughly than in any other manner. St-outs in Harrlsburg persuaded other boys at Hallowe'en not to throw corn against the windows. They brought out the fact that corn meal is at present much higher in price and that the thousands of grains thrown away might keep someone from starving. Bernard King, a Boy Scout of Marion, Indiana, himself canned the produce of his summer's war garden.

"Uncle Sam needs leaders of boys," to-day more than ever v i>efpre. Fathers, brothers, have marched away to war. If you cannot go to the front you may yet serve here. A fine group of manly American boys need the leadership of a real American man. Are you the one who will volunteer to take up this service? Local Council officers will be glad to see you. and Bessemer, Alabama, has been visited by Boy Scouts in the Food Conservation drive. A fine potato crop was harvested by Scouts in Brodhead, Wisconsin. The Scouts announce they will sell these winter potatoes at a reasonable price. Scouts Visit Every House Boy Scouts near Philadelphia can vassed every house, leaving circulars and explaining to the women the purpose of the war registration. Mayor Scarborough of Anniston, Ala., secured the services of the Boy Scouts to distribute the pledge cards to everv home in the city. Scouts at Gouverneur, N. Y., raised 350 bushels of potatoes and will market them at low prices. The corn crop on the 300-acre farm conducted by the Boy Scouts in East Potomac Park, near Wash ington, D. C.. has been harvested and will be sold. ... ~ Interest is running high all o\er the country in the food conservation campaign results. It is the ambition of the Bov Scouts to be as useful as possible to their community and to their country without haying their efforts stimulated by any thought or compensation other than that which they derive from the consciousness of having done some things useful for the public welfare.

Fifty Years Old —She Looks 29 Her Beauty Secret— Buttermilk and Cream Before I knew how to keep myself looking young and attractive at an age when most women appear wrinkled and old, I endured all the sharp pangs of neglect from the very ones whose admiration I was most anxious to retain. How a woman is handicapped the moment youthful freshness and beauty have gone! Un less she can ward off the tell-tale marks of age so destructive to fas cination ana charm, her future is bound to be one of disappointments and keen regrets. Vet, judging from my own experience, I see no reason why any woman should not regain the clear, velvety smoothness of her skin and look live to fifteen years young er by means of the same simple recipe which I used with such great success myself. Not only has it dispelled every sign of wrinkles, sailowness and complexion blemishes, but my skin has become so firm and beauti ful that I no longer worry about the effect of the passing years. At night, I simply wash my face with ordinary buttermilk and rub in a teaspoonful of pure roseated cream. When my face was badly wrinkled, I used Jap anese Ice Pencils in connection with the roseated cream, and obtained quick results on oven the deepest wrinkles of long standing where everything else had failed. To cor rect all appearance of a shiny nose, enlarged pores or oily skin I found the application of a little Poudre .Potalias most effective. By following this easy and inexpensive French recipe I know that many a wrinkled hollow-cheeked, faded-looking woman has banished every sl*n of wrinkles and complexion blemishes and mar velously increased her beauty. Note: —Pure roseated cream—Creme Tokalon Roseated—which is mention ed in the above article—is guaran teed by its manufacturers to banish complexion blemishes and make any woman look years younger and far more beautiful in ten days time or the price paid will be refunded. The following local merchants stated that despite the war. they could supply these French created products. Qorga, Kennedy. Croll Keller, r>lve. Pomeroy & Stewart, Bowman & Company. HAPRISBTTRCr TELEGRA PH Death of Boy Scout Is Felt by His Friends As it has been our fate to lose a most useful beloved Scout, Myrel Stcese, who resided at 1319 Penn street, the troop holding a meeting passed the following resolutions adopted by Troop 10, Boy Scouts of America: "Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God in his infinite wisdom to remove from life temporal to life eternal, our fellow scout, Myrel Steese, it is but fitting that we, his fellow scouts, should take suitable action on his death, "Therefore, Be it resolved that while we humbly bow to tho decree of Our Heavenly Father, who doeth all things for the best, we cannot but mourn his loss, and we look with pride upon his companionship- and record as a scout of Troop 10, of the Second Reformed Church, of Har risburg. Pa., "Therefore, Be it further resolved that the sympathy of Troop 10 is extended the family and relatives of our deceased fellow scout, and we commend them to look for consola tion and guidance to Him who gath ers His lambs to His arms, knowing that some time in the dim future we too shall lie down to pleasant dreams and then awake in the Home of the Blessed. "Resolved, That a copjf of these resolutions be sent to the family of our late scout and' they form a part record of Troop 10 of Harrisburg, Pa. (Attest) "JOSEPH FOX, "Scout Scribe." Troop 10. SCOUTING NOTES In announcing the recent forma tion of four brand new Scout troops, Harrisburg is pleased to take this opportunity of welcoming the new Scouts into the ' Harrisburg jurisdiction and the Scout brother hood. The new troops are; located at the following institutions: Troop 2. at the Y. M. H. A.; Troop 3. at Trinity Lutheran Church; Troop 5, at Messiah Lutheran, and Troop 9, at the Capital Street Presbyterian Church. We expect to hfear great things from these newcomers and the doors are open for their sug gestions, schemes and achievements. It Is interesting to note that Trinity Lutheran Church formerly had a troop of Scouts and that they have come back and reclaimed their old number —Troop 3—while Messiah Lutheran in the days gone by main tained Troop 1. Harrisburg now has within ita city limits twenty troops of Boy Scouts, and with those outside of the city, but under jurisdiction of the local council, there are twenty three. This is a splendid record of growth for a period of five months, as anyone who knows the difficul ties attending the organization of Scout troops will testify. Seven hundred Harrlsbur™ boys are now living tip to the standards of the Scout oath and the Scout law, and every day new enrollments are re ceived at headquarters. Numbers are not what we are working for so much as to instil the Scout tenet of service to others and good citizen ship thoroughly into the minds of all Scouts, new and old, but it is grati fying to realize that tho increase in number of troops since the organi zation of the local council has been 150 per cent., and in membership 180 per cent. Further than this, a comparative study of figures shows that we have more tlyin twice the number of Scouts, in proportion to population, thari New York City. A number of boys were in head quarters the other evening, "The question of tying knots came up and a rope was produced. Some qf the boys with second class badges could not tie the elementary knots. This is not good scouting, boys. Each and every Scout should master every detail of the tests, so that none would ever be forgotten. Let's check up! All Scouts will be pleased to learn of the big rallies planned for the near future. The local council has provided the place, and the time will be once a month, probably on Monday evenings. Big times are looming up, and. w r ith five or six hundred boys all out together there ought to be some time. Races, games, entertainments and, last but not least, scouting demonstrations will go to make up an unusually interesting program at the first af fair. Scout Scrlbefl: Some of you are forgetting about the weekly news items for this page. You must re member that every line counts up and it's up to you to represent your troop. Nothing Is too small, noth ing too big, in the way of Scout news. There's always something to write of when a bunch of Scouts get together. Use that little old imagination and write every week. No. wo haven't forgotten about that basketball league, but we can't wish for basketball floors and make 'em. Thought we were on the trail of two good ones this week, but got a disappointment. However, as the doctor says: "While there's life there's hope," and we've still got another shot to fire. This league simply can't shape up much before the first, of the year, however, no matter how fast we move. Looks like the Scouts ought to. have u crackerjack league for all seasonal sports in the near future. CAMiKD PEAT). RETURNS TO LIFE Boston.—A man who had been pronounced dead suddenly returned to life in Quincy last night. He is now hovering between life and death at the Quincy City Hospital. The man, whose name is supposed to be Wholberg, with a residence at 3 Holbrook avenue, Neponset, was taken violently ill while on a street car on Washington street, Quincy. Ho was removed to the office of Dr. W. J. Middleton? who found that he was suffering from a severe heart at tack. Within two or three minutes his heart ceased to beat and no pulse could be found. Believing the man to be dead Dr. Middleton notified Assistant Medical Examiner Higprins, who soon was on tho scene. Both doctors made an other examination of the man. In. dications of life were found at this time and the man was hurried to the hospital for treatment. AVOID BROKEN NOSES IN THE CUISINE Spouts of tea pots and noses of pitchers seem to be especially vul nerable to the accidents which will occur in even the best managed households. It is most annoying to have anotherwise whole pitcher dis carded because a broken nose makes It useless for pouring. To obviate this difficulty have only enameled ware. It Is hardly more expensive than the coarse stone waro which is both heavy and clumsy. It is light and easily cleaned. And Inst, but not least. It is ornamental as It comes in many pretty colors. Causes of Cracks in Concrete Pavements Cracks in concrete pavements will likely be a less baffiing problem to builders as the result of a seven-year study of their causes recently con cluded by specialists in the office of public roads of the United States De partment of Agriculture. Observing particularly the expansion and con traction due to alternate wetting and drying of concrete, records were the values of these moisture and temperature movements under various conditions. A waterproof cov ering, such as coal tar, it was learn ed, prevents a rapid change in mois ture content and greatly retards the expansion and contraction. Other important results, which should be of value to concrete work ers, especially highway engineers, are contained in a recent report of the investigations. Bulletin 532 of the Department of Agriculture. TROOP 11 ENJOY HIKE INTO THE COUNTRY Bast Saturday Troop 11 left the city on the Bockville car leaving Market Square at 11.40 for Bailey's farm above Bockville; arriving at Kockvllle tho troop was greeted by Alger Bailey and hiked to his farm. The boys immediately prepared din ner. After dinner Mr. Manser was Informed that hot cocoa was await ing us at tho farmhouse. Several boys were detailed to bring on the treat. Everybody enjoyed the treat very much as something real hot tasted good. The boys then had a game of football in ttte fields; the first team playing against the other scouts. The score was 4 8 to 12. The troop started for home about 4.40, arriving in Harrisburg about 5 o'clock. WILL DO THEIR "BIT" The scouts will spend part of their time this evening in packing boxes of good things to eat for a few of their favorite soldiers now at Camp Meade. The troop has a record for new scouts who passed the tender foot degree, twelve passing the tests required of them this last week. This makes , the troop enrollment fifty-six. At the meeting this week final arrangements will be made for the overnight hike to Stoverdale, which will take place the Friday after Thanksgiving. During the last few weeks the troop has visited Bethany Church and Division Street Chapel in honor of the boys belong ing to the troop from these churches. FENSTEMACHER. ( Scout Scribe.

Welfare Conference Did Much Work in Session Here There were no two opinions among the men who attended the fifth annual welfare and efficiency conference this week but that this year's session was historic in a way and most helpful for employer and employe. Although the convention closed last night many of the na tional and state officials, represen tatives of great industries and labor organizations, safety engineers, wo men experts on industry and Army officers, who partook in the discus sions remained over until to-day. It was remarked that woman came In for a great deal of eulogy and praise for her splendid work in behalf of the workman and work woman in this conference. The last speaker, Sidney W. Ashe, of the General Electric Company, Pittsfleld, Mass* even went so far as to say that this war would be won, in the last analysis, by women, who must be the ones primarily to conserve, and after the war to lead in the move to improve conditions of indus try. Tho present commissioner, John Price Jackson, was highly commend ed by nearly every speaker for his enterprise and efficiency in dealing with the big questions of labor and capital in this state.
