SCOUT NEWS
TROOP 8 ENJOYS
LAMB'S GAP HIKE
Have Fine Time Climbing
Mountain and Passing
Scout Tests
Troop Eight enjoyed a two-day
hike at Lamb's Gap on Memorial
Lay and the day following. Every
one had a tine time, but some Scouts
could not stay for the whole time
and had to come home on Satur
day morning.
Thursday evening. the Troop
marched to the Square with a ban
ner inscribed. "The stars will be our
cover "to-night." When wo arrived
there, Executive Virgin took some
photographs of us. We then got on
the Enola car and rode to Highland
Park, where we started on "the long,
long trail" to the Gap.
We finally arrived at the moun
tain, where we were greeted with
the good news that the truck which
had taken our eats to camp had
stalled on the mountain and that
we would have to carry the things
up the mountain. It was already
dark when we got to the cottage,
but after falling around for awhile,
someone suggested that we build a
fire. This was quickly done and
soon the place was well lighted.
That night the "Cubs" slept in the
house on cots and the Scouts slept
on the floor of the porch. The
name of the only Scout who slept
well that night is "Nobody." The
next morning we all got up early
and had a good breakfast of scram
bled eggs, bread and appla butter.
We passed out-door Scout tests dur
ing the morning and returned to
camp for dinner, which consisted of
fried potatoes, ham. corn, bread and
apple butter, and Ice cream. After
dinner, the Scribe, with two of his
friends, went out and lost them
selves in the mountains. Supper
consisted of tomato soup, bread and
ice cream. That evening we had a
large camp fire as before, and put in
the evening telling ghost stories, etc.
After eating a breakfast of ham
and eggs on Saturday morning, we
started out for a hike along the crest
of the mountain. While walking
along we killed some locusts. Frank
Wallis, the official recorder of the
locusts killed, states that we killed
about 200 on that hike. We also
observed some wild flowers of vari
ous kinds, some of which we did
not know the names. While we
were going back to camp, we heard
a wild turkey, which finally came
out of its hiding place and let us
have a look at it as it flew overhead.
When we reached camp everyone
wanted eats, and they certainly did
taste fine.
A ball game was started after
dinner, and the entire afternoon was
given over to it. After supper we
prepared for our hike to the car
line. Leaving camp about 6:30 that
evening, we finally reached the car
line and returned home much better
for our two days outdoors.

Scouts Go to York and
Back on Bicycles; Make
Long Trip in Ten Hours
Scouts, how's this for making good
: time? Two Scouts of Troop 13 went
I to York and back, which is a total
of 6 5 miles, in ten hours, on bi
cycles.
When they arrived in York after
j an eventful trip, they scouted around
i as all Scouts will, . and looked the
| city over, stopping at a soda foun
! tain where they filled up on some-
I thing cool. Before they started the j
1 trip home they talked with several
I Scouts of York about what they
were doing in scouting in that town.
Dinner was cooked under a big
; oak tree, where they had all the
! good things to eat that Scouts usual-
I ly prepare on a long hike.
After New Haven was passed the
' hard part of the ride started, be
i cause the hills became more and
1 more frequent, and the roads were
I rough.

Second Anniversary of
Troop 20 Will Be Held
| Troop 20 will celebrate its second'
j anniversary to-night with a banquet
and other activities. The final prize
I for the six month inter-patrol con
j test will be awarded at this time.
I The troop now has eleven second
) class scouts and will soon have some
i first class.
Plans are being completed for an
entertainment to be held this month
to help pay the troop camping ex
penses. Every member of the troop
will have some part in the enter
tainment from the scoutmaster to the
| candidates.
| Several scouts from Troop 20 were
in the parade last Friday and assist
| ed the G. A. R. veterans in many
ways.
The troop has been getting iots of
wood for the Liberty Fire. Scouts re-
I ceive points for this work and the
| scout reporting the largest number
of loads delivered to-night gets an
extra plate of ice-cream.

Plans Are Completed
For Boy Scout Camp
Only about a week more of school
and its tortures and then hurrah for
out-doors, and an extra cheer for
Camp Hacoboscam. It's going to be
a popular place this summer, and
every scout who has not decided
where to spend his vacation, had bet
ter make up his mind to come to
liacoboscam, the place where one
can swim, fish, and enjoy himself
to his heart's content. One look at
a week's menu is enough to make
the mouth of any scout water. Re
servations must be completed as soon
-as possible, so make up your mind
and if your troop hasn't secured its
dates, ask your scoutmaster why not.

of the Wigwam —we ask your help
and co-operation in making a more

Troop Four Hikes Over
Mountain at Overview
Troop 4 had a hike on Memorial
Day. We rode on the car to Over
view and hiked across the mountain
to the old quarry near the Rock
ville railroad bridge and stayed there
i for the day. We had rough hiking
1 over the mountain but arrived at
last. Fire places were built, wood
gathered, and then we had some fun
in the quarry. Our dinner, which we
cooked, was fine. After dinner we
rehearsed our play which will be
given on June 13. The rehearsal was
a success and we are sure the play
will be too.
At our business meeting we de
elded to camp at Aqueduct. We ex
pect to go about the first of July.
Hereafter our meetings will be held
at 7.15 instead of 7, as has been our
usual custom. All the fellows look
forward to camping time when we
can be out in the woods once more.
Well, fellows, you who are in the
play, don't forget to attend re
hearsals.

Troop 14 Completing
Plans For Big Hike
At the regular meeting of Troop
14, Monday evening, the Troop was |
re-registered, many of the Scouts re- j
registered for the third time. After
business was attended to plans were I
made for the overnight hike to the t
lodge at Lamb's Gap. It was decided j
that the Troop would leave at 5 i
o'clock Friday, June 6, and return
some time on Sunday. Each Scout
will carry his share of eats and his
personal equipment.
On the trip an opportunity will be
given to pass tests, and the complete
Scout program for an overnight hike
will be carried out. Although it is
late in the season, a baseball team
will be organized soon, and we are
ready to play other Scout teams. A
tennis team will also be organized,
and we would like to hear from
I other Troops for matches on the

Put Tenderfoot Class
Through Examinations
On Monday evening Troop 26 held
its weekly meeting in the open at
Reservoir Park. We all met at the
Elk monument and from there hik
ed to a good place to hold the meet
ing. Scoutmaster Vanaman had a
sycamore apple which was new to
the Scouts. The apple was fastened
to a twig of a vine and looked like
a tenderfoot dough twist. The inside
was a light green in color. It is edi
ble and many of the Scouts enjoyed
a taste of it.
Assistant Scoutmaster Sparrow
took the second class Scouts on a
short hike to identify trees for their
first class test. Many more than the
required number were identified.
Scoutmaster Vanaman saw the can
didates for tenderfoot Scouts
through their exams.

Wheat Tractor to Stop Here
On Coast to Coast Trip
The first tractor to make a trip of
this nature is now enroute to Har
risburg, on its way to Pittsburgh,
Cleveland, Chicago, St Louis,
Wichita, Denver and Los Angeles.
R. A. Loftus and Fred T. Ferreil,
well-known in this city, also H. M.
Curtis, of Minneapolis, are preceding
the machine awakening interest.
This trip is to demonstrate to the
farmers enroute the practicability of
using their tractors for general farm
work, also for hauling produce to
market, to use the popular slogan,
"Ship by Truck."
The wheat tractor is equipped
with interchangeable road wheels,
equipped with Firestone solid truck
tires. A trailor is attached so that
the tractor is pulling a four-ton
load.

Use McNeil's Pain Extermlnator--Ad
Will a Slaughter of Jews
Be Next European Horror ?
While the sporadic persecutions and massacres of Jews in Russia, Poland, Roumania and the
Ukraine, already reported, are disturbing in themselves, they are but scattered sparks compared
to the conflagration some observers foresee. Thus William G. Shepherd, in a Paris dispatch to
the New York Evening Post, says that not only leading Jews in France, but even notable Rus
sian authorities, including Kerensky, "admit the possibility that the next Russian horror will
consist of attacks on Jews." In the course of a dispatch from Paris a correspondent to the New
York Day, a Jewish paper, says regarding the massacres in the Ukraine that "the purpose is ap
parently to exterminate the entire Jewish population."
Regarding the reported persecution of Jews in Poland, Rev. Dr. H. Pereira Mendes, of New
York, declares that that country "is now at the bar of the world's judgment, for the world has to
choose between Turkish atrocities in Armenia, German atrocities in Belgium, and Polish atroci
ties in Poland."
Poles in New York, and the new Polish Premier Paderewski, deny that pogroms have occurred in Po
land, and characterize these charges as anti-Polish and pro-German propaganda. To substantiate these denials
the Polish Information Bureau cites Dr. Vernon Kellogg, recently returned to New York from Poland, who
in an interview published in the New York Times stated that while "there were constant rumors of difficulties
of one kind and another between the Jews and the Poles," he did not find evidence of any widespread massacres
