Scouts Plan Supper to Be Held in Fall A weU attended meeting of Troop S was held on Monday evening, the 29th. During the meeting the motion to the effect that the meetings be continued during the summer months met with unanimous approval and so the meetings will be held regu larly. Plans were discussed for a supper to be held in the fall for the Scouts. The baseball team Is still in ac tion and wants games. All challenges will be received by tile Scribe at" 1413 Market street. Last year, owing to the late start, we did not piay many games of basketball. What games we did play we won the majority. An abundance of material remains from last sea son, and with a good Scoutmaster to act as coach, our chances are better than ever. From last season remain McLinn and Smith, forwards; Bow man and Burchfield, guards. and Shader, center. With the addition ot Haehnlen. Koehler. and Winks, a good first team is assured. There are also good chances for a second, and. pos sibly a third team. A schedule is be ing made up, so get your challenges in early. The Scribe will take care of all basketball business until a manager can be selected. We are also making plans for a football team. This will be discussed in a later Scout write-up. R.

Physician Explains Who Should Take Nuxated Iron . • Practical Advice on How to Help Build Up Great Strength, Energy and Endurance Commenting on the use of Nuxated Iron as a tonic, strength and blood builder by over three million people annually. Dr. Jam-s. Francis Sul livan, formerly physi cian of Bellevue Hos pital (outdoor Dept.), New York, and The Westchester County KaJjPplp Wf" , Hospital. said. "Lack of iron in the blood not only makes a man a physical and mental weak ling, nervous, ir- fl ritable. easily fa- m tigued but it ut- ■ terly robs him of 1 that virile force! that stamina andl strength of will" which are so neces sary to success and | power in every walk of life.

Thousands of persons go on after year suffering from physical weakness and a highly nerv ous conditlcn due to lack of sufficient Iron in their red blood corpuscles without ver realizing the real and true cause of their trouble. Without Iron in your blood your food merely passes through the todv somth>n like corn through an old mill with rollers so wide apart that the mill can't grind.

FRKDRIK URGIX, SCOVT EXECrm'K The following may not be direct Scout craft, but it Is certainly good scouting. Of all the boys in a com munity the Scout is the .one to show sther people how to behave and act In the streets. He should always bear in mind the motto "Safety first." Come on. Scouts, let us dq our best to reduce the number of accidents in the city. 1. What should you do before cross ing a street? Answer: I should stop and look both ways, first to the left, las dan ger will likely be nearer from that side* and then to the right. If the street is clear for at least half a block, then I can go ahead and cross the street quickly. 2. Where is the proper place for you or anyone to cross the street? Answer: At a crossing; and I .should never cross a street at any other point, for the reason that there is less danger at crossings than at any other point. 3. What would you do if you were standing in thd middle of the street and should see automobiles or other vehicles coming both ways? Answer: I should stand perfects still and let the vehicles pass around roe. because they are not likely to run over me if I do not move. 4. What danger is there in stealing Troop 26 Can Mobilize in 30 Minutes After Call Is Made; Has Use of Auto Troop 26. under Scoutmaster L E. Vanaman is the first to report that it has completed plans for quick mobilization. He reports that Troop 26 can be notified and assembled within 30 minutes of receiving the call, and that the troop committee has offered the use of as many autos as may be needed. There is further evidence that Troop 26 is going to give the older troops in. the city a "run" for the highest rating. Following a sug gestion in the last issue of scouting they have started a weekly bulletin covering the activities of the troop. Every Scout is expected to contribute to the bulletin. (The first Issye covers two typewritten pages, and for the edification of other troops, a copy, is posted at headquarters). Come in and see it. Here are some of the "pointed paragraphs." Don't get the impfession that the sale of War Savings Stamps ended Saturday. Keep on selling as long as the war lasts. If you have a kick coming don't stay away from the meetings on ac count of it. Tell it to the scout master. That's what we have a scoutmaster for. He will fix it up somehow. Now let us see who wins that medal for enlisting the most Scouts. Scout Steele has appointed Senior Patrol leader. Gosh, watch the speed of the troop now. Scout Stouffer has been appointed patrol leader of the new patrol. Good luck. Andy. Show the scout master what you can do. then he will make it permanent. SrOl TMASTERS ANSWER CALL OF NATION Two more of our scoutmasters have been called to the most honorable of all service—Uncle Sam's Army. Scoutmaster Roy J. Shenk. of Troop 15 is now in a training camp, and Scoutmaster Clarence W. Nutt, of Troop 23 leaves next Monday. We feel their loss keenly in scout ing. and our best wishes go with their- We know the high principles they showed here will make them of greater value at the front. Both of these troops have new scoutmasters In view to carry on the work. * TROOP TWO ENJOYS LIFE IN THE OPEN AIR CAMP Twenty-six members of Troop I. connected with the Young Men's He brew Association are in camp on the Scout reserv .'"n under Acting Scout master L m Lowengard. Scout Executive \ r ".a made an Inspection of the camp yesterday, and found everything in a sanitary and satis factory condition. All of the boys are healthy and show the good effects of their life In the open. They return from camp on Saturday.

But in my opin ion you can t make strong-. vigorous, successful. sturdy iron men. and, healthy, rosy cheeked women by feeding them on metallic iron. The old forms of metal lic iron must go through a digestive process to trans form them into organic iron—Nut ated Iron—before they are ready to be taken up and assimilated by the human system. Notwithstanding all that has been said and written #n this subject by well-known physi cians, thousands of people still Insist on dosing themselves with metallic iron, simply. I suppose, because it costs a few cents less. I strongly advise readers In all cases to get a physi cian's prescription for organic iron— Nuxated Iron—or If you don't want tr. go to this trouble then purchase Nuxated Iron in its original packages and see that this particular name (Nuxated Iron) appears on the pack age. If you have taken preparations such as Nux and Iron and other simU lar iron products and failed to get re sults. remember that such products are an entirely different thing from Nuxated Iron.

This is a very dangerous practice and I should avoid it. 5. In case a child or anyone Is in jured by an automobile, what is the first thing I should do? Answer: I should render first aid notify the child's parents and stand ready to assist in getting the in jured one to the nearest hospital as quickly as possible. • • 6.

Troop 15 Home From Camp After Ten Days of Fun Along the Conodoguinet Troop 15 assembled at their heirtj quarters at the Sixth Street United Brethren ?hurch on Tuesday, July 16th for a ten-day camping trip at the official Scout site along he Conodo guinet creek about five miles from Me chanicsburg. Troop 15 was the first troop to use the new camp site, with a camp of 16 boys under the leader ship of Assistant Scoutmaster Nor man C. Boone, who was in charge of the camp. The following boys were at camp: Arthur Daugherty, Law rence Evans. George Dettling, Russel Barnhart, Harold Horst, Charles Chubb. Paul Chubb, Charles Flasher. Charles Freeburn. William feraffis. Barton Stewart. Harold Smedley. Roy Shenk. Scoutmaster Howard Miller, and Norman C. Boone, assistant scout master. Tuesday morning. July 16th. at 6 c'c'.ock the troop left with their trek cart loaded with provisions and personal equipment. The camp was reached at 10.15 with a 30-minute rest in Hogestown. The distance the boys hiked pulling their cart was IS miles. After reaching camp we took a rest and then ate our dinner. After we were through we piled In and put up the mess tent and other equip ment. such cooking pots, and pans, etc., ready for use. Patrol Leader Charles Freeburn, Harold Smedley, and Assistant Scoutmaster Boone went' to worx and prepared supper xhich was served and at 6 o'clock supptr was all over and dishes washed. At 6.30 we all went to work and put up the sleeping tents ready for the hour to go to bed. We were through putting up the tents at 7.45 o'clock supper w aa all over and dishes went in swimming under the watch ful eye of swimming instructor. Nor man Boone. At 9 o'clock taps were souaded by Patrol Leader Lawrence Evans, which meant that every boy was to hiuhis good old cot and every body did for they were waiting for the time to go to bed to come. Wednesday morning reveille was sounded at 6 o'clock, and at 7 mess was sounded which every boy re sponded to with a hearty cheer. From S to 3 drill took place. Our mail man Charles Freeburn went for mail at 9.15 when he returned to camp he was attracted by the entire troop who expected to hear from home, and were all disappointed but two Scouts. At 11 o'elock the boys were allojved to go in swimming for three quarters of an hour when.they were closely watched. Swimming races were a feature of the camp. Mess again was sounded at 12 o'clock and at 1 a ball game took place, and other athletic events. The boys were again allowed a swim from 4 to 5. At 6 o'clock mess was again sounded. Two boys were appointed to wash the dishes each day by Norman Boone. I At sunrise and sunset the bugle was blown, and the . troop was brought to attention saluted as the flag was raised and lowered. The boys' time was their own from re treat until taps were sounded at 9.30. The routine for the day the boys were in camp was the same as above. First aid had to be applied to a number of boys at camp who were hurt or sick. The first aid was in charge of Norman Boone, who has charge of first aid in the troop. No severe accidents occurred at camp. On Saturday the troop was compel led to go to Hogestown for supplies. On our way to camp we met with a misfortune by breaking the tongue of the trek cart, the only one In Har rlsburg and vicinity. The cart has come in handy to the troop. On the 4th of July it was used to supply the different wjter stations along the route of the parade with ice. etc. A new tongue had to. be replaced In order to reach camp with the sup plies. The new camp site Is an Ideal place, good spring -water, fine fish ing and good swimming, with a fif teen acre meadow with a baseball dttmond on. etc. The boys have caught a number of large fish. George Dettllng was our main fisherman. He fishd whenever he had nothing else to do. The camp was a success even though it was our first year. A meeting will be held at the Scout headquarters of Troop IK at 7.15 Fri day night. All members are requested to b e present as important business is to be discussed. Camp was broken up on Thursday when the boys were anxious to start for home. We left camp at S o'clock and were in Harrlsburg at 12. The boys were pretty tired and all good and hungry after a hike like that. Roy Shenk. our scoutmaster was called to colors to fight for his coun try.- That making two out of our troop to go. the other being Mr. Lebo, assistant coutaster. ARTHUR DAtTGHERTY, Scout Scribe.

Ne** H42UUSBURG CTSifr TELEGRAPH SCOUTS DO WELL IN STAMP SALE Postmaster Sites Pleased at Efforts of Youthful En thusiasts Postmaster Sites is more than pleased with the results of the little "stunt" the Scouts pulled oft last week. He states that he is sure the sales of War Savings Stamps were boosted many thousand dollars by the fact tlmt we marked up the city. July 31st was the biggest day in sales that the local post office has known, and while it was the last day of the month, when sales are always the largest, still he says that part of the success was due to the $4.18 stunt. He has expressed his appreciation and asks for further ideas on "stunts." first, last, and always, Scouts, sell War Savings Stamps. That is the way to supply the money to buy the guns and feed and clothe the men who will beat the Hun. Carry a sup ply of Red Cards with you all the time. Ask every person you know or do not know to buy. Sell stamps— they are bargains 25c to M.lS—the best investment in the world. Lads Rise Bright and Early For a Long Hike On Saturday afternoon. July I7th. Troop. I'} took a hike to Clark's Valr ley. The Scouts assembled at the Memorial Lutheran Church at three o'clock with their luggage and "grub" enough to last them over night. * Led by Assistant Scoutmaster Haehnlen, the troop rode to Dauphin und hiked over the country roads to Clark's Valley, arriving at about six o'clock. Through the rest of the afternoon Assistant Scoutmaster Haehnlen took a few pictures and some of the Scouts passed the preliminaries to their second class tests. Supper was cook ed and by eight everything was cleaned up. The boys then spent an hour in swimming and by the time they were out and dressed It was quite dark. A few were awakened at midnight by a "ghost" shooting firecrackers, as every body seemed to be asleep. Every boy but the ones who did it were pretty sure it was Scout Bell but they afterwards found that he was asleep at the time and hadn't a thing to do with It. About one o'clock in the morning the moon came up and showed up the landscape very beautifully. Some Scouts insisted that Scout "Kewpie" Medaths clean shaven round head was a second moon. It made a line target for any article handy. The excitement was soon over, and in a very short time all were fast asleep once more. The sun arose bright and early in the morning, and with it many Scouts arose also. A few had to be awaken ed with cold water. At six o'clock a. m., breakfast was cooked, and by eight everything was cleaned up. Then we hiked home by the way of the mountains. Assistant Scout master Haehnlen acted as trail maker. Dauphin was reached in time to catch a train to Harrisburg. Ar riving at Harrisburg the Scouts drop ped oft in smalt groups to their homes. Tired? yes, but all had to admit that they had a fine time. \VM. HAWTHORNE. Scout Scribe.

KIWANIS PICNIC ENDS WITH FEW CASUALTIES Tired Businessmen Vow "Never Again," at Least Not Until Next Year, but, by Gosh, It Was Exciting With the York Field Music of the Boy Scouts playing and the Munici pal Band Orchestra blaring away, 150 members of the Kiwanis Club of Harrisburg with their invited guests motored to the cottage of Henry (J. Claster, Summerdale yes terday afternoon tor the tirst stag picnic. . The party left the .Locust street side ol the Central Y. M. C. A. building promptly on the stroke of 1 and utter a delightful ride, reached the cottage. Signs along the way pointed out the thoroughfare to mo torists, SUCH as William C. Alexander, who were not accustomed to danc ing at the Summerdale pavilion. "1 neva% knew there was a placa like this," said Alexander when he saw the pavilion. It was hard to resist the charms of the dancing park, but everybody was glad he had resisted when he saw the big cottage. "Much nicer Uian dancing," said "Dutch" Kice, renowned exponent of the terpischorean art. When the picnic grounds were ; reached, the Scout Field Musit play ed a number of airs so delightfully that "Bill" Alexander lost his head. Bill is used to handling a bevy of beautiful girls out at the Moorhead Knitting Company plant and never loses his head there, but this lime he was rattled and almost hit anj amateur tree. "Good gosh!" shout ed A. J. Simms. "Be reasonable! | Back forward, Bill." From which may be judged the fact that friend Simms was also excited. Some Provider "We're here because we're here!' the gang sang as they mounted the steps and stormed the cottage. With in a few minutes Frank F. Daven port and his corps of helpers were on the job atjd it was a sight for the gods that confronted the picnickers. Davenport, aside from managing the! Davenport Lunch in Market street, uses his excellent culinary forces in; rrfany other ways, and right here at; Summerdale he demonstrated to the; entire satisfaction of everyone pres ent, that he is some provider! Groat banks of edibles were quickly sur rounded by the hungry merrymak ers. Here T. E. Cleckner, other wise known as "Nut," reigned su preme. "My word! See him eat:" said "Doc" R. D. Pratt. But Alder man "Ed" Hilton rivaled Cleckner's record oy eating an entjre dish of crab salad. "Did you taste that crab salad and them frankfurts," said "Aldy" busily cramming eats down his throat. Long , lanky "Josh" Rutherford rah-rahed when he saw the table and he and Dave Rineard became boon companions, eatins everything in sight. About this time Charley Schmidt's florist delivery wagon, wrongly styled an ammuni tion wagon, hove into view, and when ice cream, lemonade and wa termelons were taken from it there was another rush in that direction. "Now that I am satisfied, here's where I play penny ante for the rest of the afternoon." said Charley Web er, custodian and manager of the Elks Clubhouse. "Cheap skate! I'll play something bigger with you." said "Bill" Windsor. Followed by such mad gamblers as "Bob" Fair lamb and his ilk, the party wended its way into the woodlands where the sign, "Monte Carlo" greeted them. Further details of the after noon's games were not made pub lic but it is understood that Sam Taylor captured the prize. Whether this is true is not definitely known but such is Taylor's own statement to be takon for its true worth. The "Smoke House" Members of the party who did not feel inclined to join in games, were lured by Charles E. Ree&cr and L. V. Fritz to a wee cabin with the placard, "Smoke Hquse" above it. "Come in, you hame," shouted Reeser. Upon investigation it was found that smokes were to be found without number and without cost. Clouds of smoke issuing from the building wore almost sufficient to bring the Enola fire department# to the scene. A telephone message of reassurance from Charles D. Wolfe, assistant chief fire marshal of the state and former mayor of Williams port, set the minds of the Enola fire laddies at their ease again. Mayor Daniel L. Keister decided he'd try a cigaret, too "Hey, Neefe, I'm a regular guy now," he said to 'Baron* L. F. Neefe as he puffed busily away at a Camel. In the cottage there was much hi larity when the Municipal Band Orchestra played "The Darktown Strutter's Ball," and E. T. Cricch field, poet laureate and official club humorist, stepped forth as the offi cial dancer of the afternoon. He clogged, jigged, reeled and waltzed while spectators watched him with mouths wide open. After a moment's lull In the fes tivities, during which the clinking of pennies at Monte Carlo could plain ly be heard, Ed Chenoweth, man ager of tho Kresge Five and Ten Cent Store, and official policeman, appeared on the scene leading Paul Fuhrma;n and William P. Miller. He accused them of matching pennies and shooting crap. Charles L. Schmidt quickly took his place as the judge and the following jury was called: A. J. Simms, T. C. Black. E. K. Porte, Ed. Deane, William Strouse, J. H. J>utz, Jr.. W. T. Rodgers, Clinton M. Hershey. Reide Romig, Charles E. Reeser, M. D. Heastings and Frank F. Davenport.

He was adjudged as deaf anjl dumb and hav ing "bats in the belfry." William P. Miller testified that he didn't know how to shoot crap or match pennies and the jury decided he was not guilty. At this moment the judge inter vened and sentenced Miller to give the court two months of free rent. "You Furman, since yau sell tires, must give me an automobi'e tire." Mayor Daniel IJ. Keister was next haled before the high tribunal upon charges of exceeding the speed limit. The Mayor said he could not drive a car and that if he could his speed would be only fifteen miles a week, so he was acquitted in a few moments and the court adjourned. A representative of the Telegraph appeared with copies of the latest edition and for a half hour a recess was declared while the frivolous businessmen became serious and read the war news. Mess call was sounded and the horde of hungrv hosts swamped the culinary facilities of the cottage. There was clam chowder fresh from the Chesapeake Bay, cold Mrginla ham. potatoes, and an a last course, rich, velvetv Ice-cream. During the meal. A. L Huber, a watchmaker in the Claster je \elry store played a number of selections on the organ chimes while the lunchers sang to his accompani ment.
