By DR. M. COOK The cool fighter always wins and so there is no need to become panic stricken. Avoid fear and crowds. Exercise in the fresh air and practice the three C's: A Clean Mouth, a Clean Skin and Clean Bowels. To carry off the poisons that accumulate within the body and to ward off an attack of the influenza bacillus, tuke a good liver regulator to move the bowels. Such a one is made up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap, and is to be had at any drug store, and called "Pleasant Purga tive Pellets." If a bad cold develops, go to bed, wrap up well, drink freely of hot lemonade and take a hot mustard foot-bath. Havo the bedroom warm but well ventilated. Obtain at the nearest drug store "Anuric Tablets" to flush the kidneys and control the pains and aches. Take an "Anuric" tablet every two hours, together with copious drinks of lemonaie If a true case of Influenza, the food should be simple, such as broths, milk, buttermilk .and ice cream; but it is important that food be given regularly in order to keep up pa tient's strength and vitality. After the acute attack has passed, which is generally from three to seven days, the system should be built up by the use of a good iron tonic, such as "Irontic" tablets, to be obtained at some drug stores, or that well-known blood-maker and herbal tonic made from roots and barks of forest trees —sold everywhere as Dr. Plerco> Gojf'rp Medical Discovery.

Entertainingly of Scout WQrk of the Season ' Starting with December 26 th, Troop 13 will havo a series of scout competitions by Patrols with the various troops of the city. The troop has the in the use I of the gymnasium floor of the Boyd i Memorial. On account of this, they intend to invite most of the troops of the city to visit them and complete in Scout activities. l lt may seem selfish but what's the use of paying for a floor to hold contests when you have one of your own. Among the features for this year's scout meetings will be a special lec , ture on the adolescent boy which j will be given in one of the early December meetings. I The Troop has been fortunate in ■ obtaining the use of the services of Mr. Tack, a former Captain in. the National Guards and Shorty Miller, the famous State athlete as drill masters. * In the near future, the Honorary Committee will meet with the Troop Committee of which Ramsey Black is chairman to discuss the welfare and betterment of the Troop. The Scouts of Troop 13 have been requested to attend tho Thanksgiv ing Day Services at ten o'clock on Thanksgiving morning, and it is specially requested that every scout be present in uniform, as a picture of the Troop will be taken at this time. On account of the anniversary services of the Boyd Bible Class the Troop will have to And another meeting place for that night and a hike to Camp Boyd has been ar ranged for. The Troop intends to have blankets and cooking inlensils and their other hiking "stuff" sent up to their destination which will be Camp Boyd and thus hike empty handed from here to Camp Boyd. There the Troop intends to slay over night and you may be sure thai the Troop will have a good time. Although the scouts can't go in swimming, they can ramble around over the mountains that are still standing there if they haven't dis appeared since tho Scouts were up there last. After spending the night, up there In God's country, the Scouts will hike back to Har rlsburg. The hike around trip will be about forty-four or Ave miles but this will be a fine chance for developemcnt for the younger fel lows as well as the older boys and the Troop intends to have a fine time. FENSTEMACHER, Scribe. Rah For New Scoutmaster! Troop Fourteen Likes Him The Scouts of Troop 14 held an Interesting meeting on Monday. A night hike Is being planned for the near future. The Scouts also intend to have a parent's night soon. Regrets were expressed by the Scouts at the loss of their brother Scout, Charles Elwood Bailor. He was a faithful member In the troop and his loss will be felt by all. Prior to his death he secured. In the Fourth Liberty Loan, enough subscriptions to entitle him to a medal. He is the first member the troop has lost by death and we all sincerely hope it will be the last. The troop sent flowers and four of the Scouts as sisted as pallbearers at the funeral. A portion of the troop has been very busy doing good turns during the period of five weeks of which all schools were closed. A part of them assisted at the United War Work Campaign Headquarters in Market street, helping prepare supplies for the approaching campaign, while others did the more strenuous work as loading peach stones into cars for shipment. Several of the Scouts have succeeded In passing the outdoor work for their second class tests and hope to pass the rest of it very soon. Some easy pocket money was made by passing the new telephone bo >ks in which several members partici pated. The troop has succeeded in getting a new Scoutmaster and we all think he will bo a success.

You've been won dering what happened to me jiaven't you? I've been burled so deeply under piles of peach stones, Liberty Bond application blanks, war posters, and Victory boy buttons, that I just this minute dug myself out. * Do you notice that I didn't say I was buried under plies of, manu scripts for the Scout page? Confi dentially, fellows, if you don't get busy and send in a few stories—one every week at least, from your troop —this page isn't going to be worth a two-cent stamp. Get busy, please; it's your page. Didn't we—we'll, Just didn't we do it on the peace parade on the elev enth; in the Liberty Loan Campaign; and in the United War Work Fund. Does it make you feel good? It does me. The way you Scouts helped around headquarters when you hadn't school was great. Dbn't think you're not welcome now. Come around once in a while, Fenstemacher, Hagar, Brandt, Brooke, Spotts (did I spell it right) and all the rest of you. Good night, I'll get in wrong by men tioning you fellows' names. I guess I'd better invite you all. Come on you eight hfindred, there's lots of room. Are you a Victory Boy? Gee, I wish I were. Now that the war's over,' don't think you can sit down and take a rest. I can't, and there's an awful lot to do. When we get that Fife and Drum Corps started—then life's going to be exciting. SCOUTING NOTES BY J. FREDUIK VIRGIN, SCOUT EXECUTIVE A GOOD TL'KN DAILY Scout officials are often asked, "What is the big thing in scouting?" Sometimes the question comes in this form, "What is the secret of the power of scouting, and why has it developed so extensively?" The answer is not, "because of its membership," for scouting had power at its very beginning, eight years ugo. Neither is, it, "because of the bond of brotherhood," powerful though that may be; neither, is it the appeal of boyhood, for boys un der leadership have had to force their way into recognition, and that within the last few years. All of these are factors in the life of scouting, but the secret of the power of scouting is that all the members are sworn on thqlr honor to do their best to obey the scout oath and scout law, and particularly the third law 7 , "A scout is helpful." The interpretation of the third law is "to do a good turn daily." Just there is the secret of scout ing's power. That is the reason why hundreds of influential and busy men 26 Blv~, ' ie Gold Star hi Troop Eight's Flag ir-.'-p Four held a lively business cting Monday evening beginning r.t seven sharp. -Our service flag which now has twenty-six blue stars, one gold one. and a Red Tri angle was an object of admiration throughout the evening. Can any of you other troops equal this record? Our Scoutmaster told us the require ments of a troop. Among other things, we found we needed a bulle tin board, so Edward Kelley, our handy man, was selected to make one for us at Tech. We also need a dummy first aid outflet, and the Scoutmaster promised to attend to this part of our requirements. Our treasury was substantially add ed to recently by an old and active Scout of our troop, Abraham Burlc holder, now In the S. A. T. C. at State College. A motion was made to send him a letter of thanks. We decided to hold business meet ings regularly once a month. Other meetings will be taken up with Scoutcraft and games. ALEX WIELAND, Scribe. Scoutmaster Martin Gives Examinations to His Scouts The regular meeting was held Fri day night by Troop 28 and tender foot examinations were given. Wes ton Smith, patrol leader of the Fly ing Eagle, and his assistant. Stile Summy successfully passed. Assistant Scoutmaster Amos Nye was given a leave of absence and William Heagy, of Troop 6, will act in his place until Nye returns. Scoutmaster Irvin Martin Will con tinue examinations at future meet ings, and a full attendance is re quested. Wanted —A Scoutmaster to Take Place of Lowengard Since Leon Lowengard, former Scoutmaster of Troop 2. connected with the Y. M. H. A., left the city to enter army service, there has been no one to take up the work in this troop. Both the Scout executive and the boya of the troop are looking for a man who will carry on the work as efficiently as the former Scout master did. Troop 2 has been very active in responding to appeals for service throughout the city, and It is hoped that In the very near future some one will be found who will lead them on to still greater activity. ACE MEDALS HERE Local headquarters IB Just in re ceipt of a package from the Treas ury Department containing three Ace medals for the following Scouts: Wil liam Tyson, Troop 20; James Hoges, Troop 7, and Fred Mentzer, Troop 12. How's this for a good start? Con gratulations, Scouts Tyson, Hoges, and Mentzer. Don't stop now. What that piece of red. white and blue rib bon on your medal needs now Is a palm, another palm, and more palms. I I heard a rumor the other day that I one of our Scouts worked so hard | helling bonds that he broke his wrist j watch. That's nothing—Wolf Cub < Huston hustled so hard that he broke j the record, and Kari Moesleln wrote his name on the application stubs so often in his dreams before the thing ever started, that his wrist went back on him. Has your Troop had a "registra tion" meeting? .Regular question naires to fill out and everything. Ask your Scoutmaster. How would you like to be a Boy Scout in Paris? They act as mes sengers, and spend their weekends camping, to muke them fit for the strenuous work they have to do dur ing the week. Say, how would you like to correspond with some of them? Can you parlez-vous?" The office watch has been going regularly since school began again. I wonder why. Did you ever visit a cemetery where all the inscriptions aro written in German? You don't have to go "over there" to see it. The ofiice Scout will tell you where to find it. But they're all dead ones. Headquarters would like to havo a list of names of fellows from your troop who ai*e or were in army or navy service. Bring it in as socrn as possible. We want to publish the complete list from all troops. Get busy, you scribes. Has anyone seen the office dog? Hagar had him last. Tho ofilct Scout aimost had him the ohter day, but he turned out to be a common or dinary dog He's a first cluss dog. too. give linancial support to the move ment-—und also what money cannot buy—their time and their construc tive influence. Harrlsburg does not need to be told that the scouts are doing their best to Jive up to this law. Within the past year and a half scouting has become an important factor In: the community. The instances are in numerable where scouts nave re sponded to appeals for service. The boys in the community, few as they are, in comparison to "what# they should be, have found themselves iu service for their fellow men. They have not regarded this service as arduous work, but rather Just the expression, of their duty and their love of the community. The cumulative effects of 800-odd good turns that are done each day by the scouts of this city will help to make Harrisburg a better, cleaner and happier place in which to live. Therefore, more power to scouting. Let there be more men come forward who will devote themselves to the development of the movement and the direction of its boys. GOOD SCOUTS II,L Scouts and Scout officials in the city will regret to learn of the ill ness of three of the Scout executive's small children. Mr. Virgin's small son, Charles, or "Bambi" as he is affectionately called by his best chum, is the friend of all the Scouts who meet him, and is the liveliest kiddie who ever wanted to see things go. We are all sincerely sorry, 'and hope to learn soon that they are on the way to recovery.—The Office Scout.

Name Address Troop 26 Is on the Job; Hold Lively Meeting Troop 26 held Its monthly business meeting Monday. The question of | changing the meetings from Monday night to Friday night, was brought to vote and defeated, and it was then ordered by the Scoutmaster that the meetings remain at Monday nights. The Scoutmaster accused the troop of wanting Friday night because most of the entertainments of the Lyceum Course fall on Monday. The 16 principal points of the com pass were taken up and all the ten derfoot Scouts present say they will be ready to take that test next Mon | day. The Scoutmaster then gave a short talk on courtesy and living up to the Scout oath and law and the meet ing was then adjourned to allow any of the Scouts who wished to attend the entertainment. ANDREW A. STOUFFER, Scribe. Troop Eight Finds It Has Regular Semaphore Men Last Monday evening we held a meeting which was conducted suc cessfully by our Assistant Scout master, Milton Koehler. About twenty Scouts demonstrated that they know either fourteen let ters of the Semaphore Code, or ten letters of the General Service Code. After the meeting we had a good so cial time and some Scouts prepared for their second class or first class examinations.
