12 SNEWS ftNP NOTES OF THE BOY SCOUTS i CHARTS SHOW SCOUTSTANDING Forty Organizations Planned For the City by End of "Year Local headquarters has Just com- J>leted and Installed In the office two very interesting; charts. One is a map of the city, showing the loca- j tion of all the troops as well as the , location of churches that do not as I yet have troops.. Troops are shown j by green stars, while churches with- : out troops have plain white pins, j The effort is to change the white pin I for a star. The way scouting is ; growing at the present, indications are that Harrisburg will have thirty troops by the middle of the summer and forty by the new year. The other chart shows the stand ing of the twenty-two troops already registered on this chart. A common pin indicates a candidate, a green pin for a tenderfoot, red for second class and yellow for first class. As sistant scoutmasters have a red and yellow pin ancL scoutmasters a moss green pin. " In the near future a rating will be given to every troop, based upon membership, standing, progress in \ scoutcraft and examination and re ports. At the present time Harrisburg has ant scoutmasters, 129 candidates, ant scoutmasters, 129 candidatees, 370 tenderfoot, eighty-seven second class and nineteen first class, one of whom is a "life scout"—a total of 658.

Ruling Scope of Service and Use of the Organiza tion's Uniform i ! June 1 local headquarters will be 1 moved to rooms CO6 and 607 in tho J same building in which we are now ; located. The new rooms will not I only provide offices for National i Field Scout Commissioner H. M. I Butler and Executive Virgin, but will j also provide ample space for meet i ings for scoutmasters and patrol leaders In this room the patrol leaders school will be held. In the first week of June the patrol leaders school will be in augurated. This school will be con ducted by a faculty arranged by headquarters and all patrol leaders and assistant patrol leaders will be expected to be regular attendants. The school will also be open to first class scouts. All tho scout subjects w-'il be taken up in regular order along with a course In leadership. This idea has been used to a good advantage in many large cities and it will prove its helpfulness to the scouts of Harrisburg. There is probably no part of the scout program so well known nor any of the scout ideals so widely recognized p.s the slogan "Do a good turn daily." Scouting stands for service with a capital S but there is always the danger of a misinter pretation of the nature of that ser vice. We print herewith a copy of the rulings of national headquarters on v his subject: 'The scout uniform must not be worn when soliciting funds or when engaged in ->ny selling campaign. "When engaged in any distinctive political endeavor. "When appearing on the stage professionally. "When taking part in parades oth er than for the purpose of render ing service as a scout. "When a boy ceases to be a scout j through failure to register or through suspension or expulsion from tlTe'troop." The executive board has adopted] | the policy that "it is contrary to the j best interests of the Boy Scouti I movement for any local council, | troop of scouts or group of boys, as I I scouts to enter into any contract ori j business relationship with a com mercial or business agency or cor | poration which might be construed J as using the Boy Scout movement or I organization for commercrial pur- I poses." This means that scout officials are, also requested to see that no scouts j wear the uniform or other official j insignia when ns individuals they | may be soliciting funds, selling tick j ets, or otherwise acting in a capacity I similar to the commercial salesman, I solicitor, etc. I TT" Travel From Williamstown to Coast to See Movie Star To work their way to Los Angeles to secure places on the company of William S. Hart, noted film star, to reach, Los Angeles after many trials i and to finally land positions .in the I big studio —these were some of the | unique experiences narrated by two Williamstown boys, W. M. Byerly ! and H. A. Lewis, who began work in the Los Angeles studio. May 20. It is related that the two boys saw Hart in "Hell's Hinges," in a local theater las£ October. They decided to go to Los Angeles to work with him. They went to Detroit, work ing in the Oakland Motor Company factory, met Hart in San Francisco, as he was coming from a theater and saw him speed away In his car without an interview. They kept in | touch with him through letters and finally reached Los Angeles, where i they were immediately given posi ; tions. REALTY BOARD THANKED A letter expressing appreciation ! for the free survey work they have done, was received yesterday by the Harrisburg Realty Board. The let ter, sent by the Ordnance Depart ment, referred to free appraisal of land at Middletown. PORKERSTWAX FATAND HAPPY [Continued from First Page.] new plan for garbage disposal. They didn't want to pay an enormous price for a reduction plant or to V-iild a new one. Then some one suggested a Piggery. The Idea was laughed at by some, thought over by others and taken seriously by a few." After weeks of debating, Council meetings, opinions from the City Solicitor, ad vertising for bids for garbage dis posal and other plans were made, three men decided to submit a price for collection of garbage and dispos ing of it by feeding it to pigs. They were, Hiles, Frank and Lewis Hagy. all brothers, then operating a pig ■ farm at Rohrerst'own, Just' outside 1 Lancaster, as 'hey had the collection j contract for that city. rig Do Their Bit The bid by the Hagy Brothers firm I was $2,000 a month for collection work. They got the five-year con i tract, secured the Nissley farm, near I the city, and brought -the pigs here j to complete the Job. -The pigs are j doing it, too. One of the employes in speaking of the success of the system declared that so much waste was being col lected now that it was necessary to bury several loads each day until I more porkers arrived to eat It. About six wagonloads and three trucks of I garbage are gathered daily by fifteen men. Almost all of the waste Is i dumped in ta the pigs as soon as It reaches the farm. It was said that i some of the residents are not co operating by not observing the rules Of the city prohibiting throwing of tin cans, glass, broken dishes, saw dust and other dirt into the garbage. Expanding P'ant Because of the scarcity of building materials, the Hagy brothers at first used the barn on ihe farm for the pigpens. Now wooden structures are beint; erected, which when completed will house more than 400 hogs. If necessary, more will be built later. Few complaints are being receive> about the collection se'tvlcc, city of ficials said, and, despite the labor shortage, the firm Is maintaining schedules much of the time. The three brothers themselves go with the other men on the teams much of the time to see that {the collections are made properly and to help with the work. The large farm on which the pig gery is located is under cultivation also and. with plenty of fertilizer to be obtained by using garbage, large crops are expected later in the sea son, l J Troop 20 Plans Cleanup of Second Class Exams There will be a 'final cleanup for Troop 20 of indoor second class exams this evening. Exams will also be held for several candidates who are eager to oecome tenderfoot scouts. Scouts will be given five points for each drill attended and one point ex tra for wearing their uniform. The scout attending all frills will receive an extra twenty-five points. Plans are being made for the anniversary celebration which will be held soon. At this time all scouts who have passed their exams will be given their badges. The ribbon bar pin will also oe awarded to the three scouts having the most points. First scout will receive the black pin, the second highest the yellow and the third highest the blue pin. Black, yellow and blue are the troop colors. "HZ" FOB SORE, TIDED FEET-MI!
