GLAXTON COMMENDS SCOUT ORGANIZATION WfiAlSES BOY SCOUT PROGRAM FOR PROPER OEELOPMENT OF YOUTH. One c? the strongest •rnd moat liigh ly valued endorseij-ents of the Boy j Scouts of America has lef'n given by ( he Hon. Philander P. Ofcixton, Com missioner of Educaiton of the United ; Status. In “An Open Letter to the 1 Churches.’’ issued by the Commission i (r from the Bureau of Education in Washington, he feels of the great pro blem of looking after the lo'sure time J of hoys while they are not at school jor under ‘he direct supervision of 'home or church, and points out that especially during the period of early ! ndcdpsoeiice it should be the object of the modern educational ideal to have : .he entire waking life of the hoy filled 1 with supervised directed aettfivity. The avaMability of (‘he Eoy Scout pro gram for such purpose, he says, has been fully tested. Commissioner Claxton’s letter fol lows: Persons of vision declare tbit we the enlering upon a renaissance in 'education. Let us hope that this pre | diction finds its justification in .‘he. ; awakening of the conscinusnes of teichars to the infinite possibilities of development of the educative process. In the particular unit of secondary 1 education, which we are beginning to I call the Junior High School, and I which covers the period cf early ado ; lesccnce, the modem ("ducr4fonial ideal conceives the entire waking life of the hoy as filled with supervised, directed aetivitv. Tim Sc’v ’ '• Home and the Church has each. I s responsibility for the devcopmept of ttbe boy in *l]'i°. his most iiunrp<.c : "a able period. flranting that each discharges its obligation tO' the hoy, there P ill r ft mains a residue of unemployed lei sure, sufficiently large to menaee all the good accomplished by these three great educat ive forces. Tin church and the school, adequate tv to serve the youth committed to their care, must extend their functions and absorb under ' heir direction the leisni; time of tho boy. The availab'lity of the Boy Scout program for such a purpose has been fully tested. It has been Approved hy leading educators': the movement is essentially religious, hut non see itaran. It trains for citizenship, but is non partisan, and non political. It is non military, offering a program of activities which include every fealuro srf military drill except the Manual of Arms, and training to shoot to 1 kill. It can be incorporated into the recrea ticnal program of any denominational body, without readjustment. It offers the hoy the opportunity to do the things he wants to do, in a better way than he can da them by ,. t himself. Scouting is designed to make real men out of real boys by a real program, that works. The Bureau cf Education commends it to the favor of all organizations desiring to extend the post class room programs of the adolescent boys un der their care. ACT QUICKLY A 'Vsco' Tread The More You Use Your Car The More You Need Good Tires Your car’s usefulness is increasing every day. It is becoming more and more of a real necessity to you—both in your business and home life. For that very reason you need good tires, now, more than ever. The out-and-out dependability that created so tremendous a demand for United States Tires in times of war is just as desirable today. It reduces tire troubles to the vanishing point— multiplying the usefulness of your car and putting the cost of operation on a real thrift basis. United States ‘Nobby’, ‘Chain*, ‘Usco’,and ‘Plain* are the most popular fabric tires built. They have all the strength and stamina our years of experience have taught us to put into tires. There is also the United States ‘Royal Cord’, the finest built for passenger car use. Our nearest Sales and Service Depot dealer has exactly the treads you need for your car and the roads you travel. He will gladly help you pick them out. Do the right thing at the right tim<j Act quickly in time of danger. In time of kidney danger, Doan’a Kidney Pills are most effective. Plenty of Florence evidence of their worth, Mrs. J. W. Ulrich, 71G Ellis Ave., Florence, says; “I had been troubled for years with kidney complaint, hav ing pains in the small of my back and being bothered by hea- aches, nerv ousness and dizzy spells. I was so irritable that I was a. burden to my self. My kidneys acted irregularly and were very annoying. I took different medicines, b: t cot no relief until I began using Doan’s Kidney Pills. I saw a change in my condi tion from the start and two boxes greatly relieved me of the trouble. I can always say Doan's Kidney Pills are .a wonderful remedy.” Price 60 cents, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Ulrich had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y.
