muffled explosions tore great holes in i

One launch delivered 99 men to

Twelve men from the crew of one of

Boy Scouts Start Saturday
Boy Scouts begin their Liberty
Loan sales on Saturday.
George S. Reinoehl,. president of
j Harrisburg Council of Boy Scouts,
has issued the following statement
relative to the canvass directed to the
Scouts themselves:
"You will recall that the instruc
tions of Chief Scout Executiye "West
dated April 10th and 13th, covering
the details of the Boy Scout Liberty
Loan Campaign provide that under
no circumstances should any solici
tations be made before April 27th.
It was distinctly stated that the id*a
was that the Boy Scouts should be
'the gleaners after the reapers.' It
1 is also distinctly stated that no io
i licitations which are made prior to
Saturday, April 27, shall be counted
| toward the war medals which are to
| be awarded the Boy Scouts.
"Information has come to me and
: I am very glad to say in compara
| lively few cases, that this rule has
! been violated by some of the Boy
Scouts and that they have been so
liciting prospects and that they have
either persuaded their relatives or
have a tacit understanding with them
that their subscriptions shall be held.
In one case I understand that a Boy
Scout already has subscriptions to
the amount of $2,700. Remember,
Boy Scouts, that you aTe on your
honor as a Scout to live up to the
rules of this game and, therefore,
I call upon all those Boy Scouts who
have already taken subscriptions to
turn those subscriptions over to
Scout Headquarters in the Calder
Building at once in order that they
may be given to the members of
the Third Liberty Loan committee
of Harrisburg who hold cards for
the prospects who have been signed."

Manager J. A. Marshall, of the
Baltimore Life Insurance Company
has received word from headquar
