HOLDSBANQUET
Scout Commissioner German
and Scout Executive Virgin
Make Addresses
There's no use asking what any
Wolf Cub or Scout thought of our
banquet on Friday night, for you all
will say it was great. We all met
at the church and when all had
arrived, some with their fathers, we
assembled in the dining room, where
the Rev. Markward asked the bless
ing. I am sure that everyone had
more than he could eat. After the
meal was served our guests spoke
to us.
Scout Commissioner W. H. Ger
man gave a short, but interesting
talk. Then came Scout Executive
Virgin, whose talk was full of fun
and pep, and who wanted to know
what sort of an animal a cub is.
Field Executive Huntsberger in a
brief talk gave us some good advice
and urged us to come down and take
our tests. Mr. Wirt, chief forest Are
warden of the State, was present and
told us of the necessity for the pres
ervation of our trees and forests.
The Rev. Markward also addressed
us on the need of joining a church,
be 1t Jewish, Catholic or Protestant.
Three generations of the Long
family were present at our anniver
sary. Captain Long and Lieutenant
Long met for the first time that
night since they had left each other
in the Argonne forest in France.
Assistant Scoutmaster Wieland
received his commission and the
first merit badge in our Troop was
awarded to Frank Foose. John
Steiner was presented with a first
class pin, and Paul Kunkel received
his second-class pin. Four Scouts,
Joseph McClintock, Russel Brown,
Marlin Rodenheber, John Steiner,
received service stripes.
Merit winners for the month are:
Frank Foose, 396 points; Cleon
Criswell, 387, and Joseph McClin
tock, 367.
Don't forget to come to the meet
ing to-night.

NO NEED TO BE THIN,
SCRAWNY OR SALLOW
If you are thin and want to be
plump: if you have wrinkles in your
face that you are not proud of; if
the skin is saUow or subject to
pimples or blackheads, take Mi-o-na
stomach tablets for two weeks and
notice the change.
The majority of the thin people
are thin because the stomach does
not perform its duties properly. It
Is not secreting sufficient of the
natural digestive juices and in con
sequence does not extract from the
food enough nutritive matter to
nourish every part of the body.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are in
tended to build up the stomach so
that it will act properly and extract
from the food, the elements necessary
to form flesh.
If you are thin try two weeks treat
ment of Mi-o-na stomach tablets
they are small, easily swallowed and
are sold on the guarantee of money
back if they do not overcome chronic
indigestion, acute or chronic, stop
stomach disturbance, belching, heart
burn, sour stomach, and any after
dinner distress.
For sale by H. C. Kennedy and ail

The Office Scout
Hello, Scouts!
There I've done it! Done what?
Why started oft without saying
"Well, fellows." I've been wanting
to join you on the scout page for
ever and ever so long but every time
I'd think about it, I'd start out with
"Well, fellows," and, well, fellows,
(gee I did it after all) I like variety
and I just had to find another way
to commence my rosy tale. You
must notice—do it now if you haven't
—how happy everyone at Headquar
ters seems to bo lately. Do you
know why? It's because we put the
Victory Loan across, I should say
helped to put it across, in such won
derful fashion. Of course we worked
hard, yes, I did too a little, but
shucks, what's a little bit of work
when you get a big result like that.
I'd do it all over again and you
would too. To tell the truth I won't
feel that I've worked hard enough
if there isn't another one. Oh hoy,
it was great to open the office door
(we wonder) on Monday morning
and find those bond applications
stacked up two or three feet high.
Grand and glorious feelings weren't
in it with the one I had then.
I've been waiting for several days
for Champion Huston to come In so
| THE WIGWAM ~~]
Fellows we have a new visitor"ln
the Wigwam this week in the per
son of G. Park Weaver, the active,
energetic ,and thoroughly efficient
Assistant Scoutmaster of Troop 20.
His contribution should be read and
digested by every Scout in the city.
I have not appeared conspicuously
in the Wigwam for some time, but
you may rest assured that I am busy
in scouting. The overnight hiking
season is in full swing—or will be
very shortly—and when the dusty
road, the camp fire, and the night
woods call. Red Cloud will be lucky
to find time for sitting in an office
writing newspaper dope. There is |
not a troop in the city with whom I
would not enjoy a hike. That's not
a hint for an invitation, fellows —
just a statement. lam not going to
mention any names but I know of
one troop that expects to hold a
camp fire council and "wienpr" roast
In Spooky Hollow soon—and say,
fellows, I hope the scoutmaster reads
my little suggestion above. We'll see.
RED CLOUD.
How to Make Your Troop the
Worst Troop in Harrisburg, by G.
Park Weaver, with apologies to the
Oakland "Scout Scribe."
The following advice is for all
scouts (?) who want their troop
to be the poorest in Harrisburg:
I 1. Come to troop meetings when
ever you feel like it. Not regularly,
of course.
Troop Four Now Boasts
Nine First-Class Scouts
Troop 4 has nine first class scouts
now out of a membership of twenty
two. It's the record for the city so
our scoutmaster tells us. In honor
of the three newest first class scouts,
George Biles, Theodore Selig, and
Malcolm Graeff, we had a celeba
tion with "eats" provided by Scout
master Hallman. We all enjoyed
the evening immensely and a rising j
vote of thanks was given our host. |
Our troop district has been some- i
what changed and we were told of j
that change last Monday. It's quite
a bit bigger than the old territory
but when any literature or jiosters
are to be distributed we certainly
will cover it. Won't we fellows?
say fellows, save food for the
big peace bonfire. We're going to
wake Harrisbrug up but we need
that box and barrel you have in your
cellar to do it so "Be Prepared"
and gather a lot. We'll furnish light
and heat to Harrisburg for one night
gratis.
And now about that scout play
we're going to have. To make it a
success we need every scout in Troop
4 to boost it with all his might.
Talk it up wherever you go and we'll
have a good crowd. The committee
has been hard at work and can
guarantee some good effects in the
way of lighting and scenery.
Mr. Hallman will be away for two
weeks, but brief meetings will be
held during that time. Don't for
get the big bonfire.
ALEX WIELAND.
that I may shake his hand and con
gratulate him but he must be as
busy as ever. Didn't he sell them,
though? But that's what comes of
having Memorial Day for one's birth
day and living on Liberty street.
Some day I know there's going to be
an office on Wall street with just
this on the door
R. D. HUSTON
Bonds
And that race bewteen Troop 13
and Troop 11. I was so excited over
it that I did a lot of things all wrong
and had to do them over, and I up
set the typewriter finally.
It's almost time fot camping and
i it isn't too soon to begin to get ready
now. One thing I do know, and
that is that I'm coming to visit tne
scout camp this summer, invitation
or no invitation. So "Be Prepared.
It's just about time for my br ®& K J
fast. Oh, say now you don't think
I begin work that early do you.
What I mean is that it's lunch time
but it will be my breakfast. What
I'd like to have would be sonrie of
the scout executive's twist on a
stick." How about Christy Brandts
pancake? No, thanks.
THE OFFICE SCOUT.
2. If a little late, do not come in
at all. .
3. When you do come to the meet
ing create all the disturbance you
can, and don't fail to annoy the
scoutmaster.
4. Do not think of paying your
dues. ,
5. Let George do everything and
then kick at the way George does it.
6. Say nothing when the scout
master asks you for your opinion,
but always stand ready to find fault
with what the other members say
or do.
7. Always bear in mind that the
scoutmaster is in scouting for his
own health and that you are con
ferring a favor upon him by re
maining in the troop.
8. Never pass a test unless you are
threatened in some way by your
scoutmaster, such as wearing night
gowns, etc.
9. If a troop scribe, do not let any
of the other scouts of Harrisburg
know that your troop exists, or in
other words, never send in any news
tor the scout page.
10. Never respond to calls for ser
vice.
11. When it rains, please bear in
mind that you must not get your
nice new shoes wet, so you had bet
ter stay in the house instead of go
ing to your troop meeting.
Follow all the above rules and we
guarantee that your troop will be the
worst in the city.
Second Anniversary of
Troop 16 Properly Marked
In spite of the terrific rain last
Friday, Troop Sixteen's second anni
versary was celebrated in proper
style. We were certainly glad to
be in on it. The eats were fine,
but we knew what to expect for
our mothers were on the job. There
were just exactly seventy-five men
and boys at the tables and fifteen
ladies* preparing land serving the
luncheon a total attendance of
ninety. Pretty good sized crowd,
! wasn't it? I'll say. But just wait
I until Pack Two celebrates its first
I anniversary in November. We'll beat
i that by twenty. . Can't do it? Well,
Just wait and see.
What do you think of old timer
Huston? "Eleven years old. Knock's
'em cold." Led the crowd again, and
let me tell you he deserves all the
credit. No one handed any bonds
to him. No other fellow sold his
ten and gave the rest to Ralph. He
pulled the thing through hitnself,
and so we congratulate him most
heartily. He's a patriotic chap, but
there's a reason. He was born on
Memorial Day and lives on Liberty
street. So the first meeting in June
he will be transferred to Troop
Sixteen.
The meeting to-night will be de
voted to business and tests princi
pally. We have two new members
to vote on —Shatto and Haldeman.
Our next hike will be May 24. Full
particulars later.
Yours, till Niagara Falls,
DON M. WIELAND. Scribe.
Troop Eight Honors Its
First-Class Scouts
lAst Monday evening Troop 8 held
a celebration in honor of its three
first class scouts. There was music,
speaking and awarding of badges,
and last but not least —eats.
Scout Commissioner W. H. German
was present and after awarding the
three first class pins to the three
first class scouts of the troop was
presented with a scout commission
er's pin by Scoutmaster Jenkins in
behalf of Troop 8.
C. W. Clark, a returned Y. M. C.
A. secreary gave a very interesting
talk.
We had a very enjoyable time up
at Troop 13's meeting room last
Friday evening and wish to extend
our thanks to the troop.
Our member? are preparing for a
three-day camp at Lamb's Gap over
Memorial Day which we hope will
be a great success.
Our new merit system seems to
be working fine, so far, so don't
forget to shine your shoes and comb
your hair before you come to scout
meeting on Monday evening, fellows.

Honorary Committee of
Troop 7 Helps Scoutmaster
The Honorary Committee of Troop
i are proving a great help to the
scoutmaster and his assistants in
trying to stimulate interest in the
troop. They met in regular session
on Wednesday evening, and took ac
tion on some very important mat
ters.
A festival has been arranged for
June 6 to raise money for the an
nual camping trip.
Every scout is in readiness for
the peace parade, which promises to
be the most patriotic parade held
for some time.
On account of quite a number of
the scouts of Troop 7 being members
of Technical High School, our meet
ing on Frdiay night will be post
poned so that everyone can attend
open house at Tech.

For Troop Twenty; Like

At the meeting last Friday of!
Troop Twenty, a free for ull scrap
took place when Scouts were given
rope-ends to "whip." It was a sur
prise to many of them, but after
punishing and butchering the rope
ends, they finally produced the de
sired results.
It was the monthly business meet-1

Two new applicants, Sweigert and I
Brunner, were admitted to thef
Troop. Everyone had an interesting!

THIS BIRD A SEAMSTRESS
The "tailor bird" of India Is an ex
cellent seamstress. When this bird
decides to build a nest it chooses a
leaf that suits its purpose and per
forates the edges with In beak. Then
it takes a long piece of grass fiber
and sews the edges together, making
a pocket.
If the leaf is not larg; enough, it
