X Washington, Map 20.—The House almost broke Into a riot here today, and for some time there was every ap pearance of serious trouble, when Representative Madden, Republican, of Chicago, got the floor and denoun • ed Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and others who wore the Confeder ate uniform as traitors who tried to . destroy tijq union. i The trouble came about when Rep resentative Steadman of North Caro lina, replying to Madden’s interrup tion of a speech endeavored last Sat- ! urday by Upshaw of Georgia, at which ! time Madden made his first statement I relative to Confederate soldiers. ! Mr. Steadman denied that any such ! infamous name phould be given the ! Confederate soldier, especially men of the type of Lee and Jackson. He made a splendid speech in reply to Madden’s attack. „Wheu Steadman had concluded Mad den tn'-'U the floor and in some of the most bitter words ever heard in the house denounced !./*». Jackson, and the Confederate soldiers in general. Immediately there was a rush of Democratic members from their seats and Representative Rumjue of Mis souri, ran for Madden. The speaker declared that members must remai their seats. Instantly when Madden had again repeated his word “triator” and said that he apologized to no one for its use, there was a mad rush from the Democratic side and at least a dozen members shouted ‘‘lie, lie, d—n lie.” Pandemonium broke loose and it was not until Republican lead ers got.Madden hack to his seat and demanded that there be an end to his talk that a good sized riot was averted. There is severe condemnation of the Chicago member here, not only by Democrats, but by practically all Republicans also, first, because of his preventing Upshaw from making his speech in (lie House Saturday to pen sion Confederate veterans and for his attack on Lee, Jackson and other Con federate leaders and soldiers. Mad den’s remarks were the worst ever uttered in Congress against the Southern cause. « ♦ASSORTED NUTS BEC»32msBie }y ,t ** l| ^ l *^ mBBB!gB PggBg5BEiEBgB3taEEEM^BaEgHBEgSagggB THE PARLOR SHOE SHOP 66 E.

"WE DO IT QUICK" DARGAN—HARLLEE REALTY & DEVELOPMENT CO. VeCALL BUILDING .... FLORENCE, S. C. { PHONE 796 •BOY- SCOUT s (Conducted by National Council of tht Boy Scouta of America.) h, ♦ NEW WESTERN SCOUT LEADER Fresh from his duties ovetaeos, where, ns director of athletics for the American expeditionary forces, he did conspicuous work In guiding the recre ational activities of millions of dough boys, E. S. DeQroot, noted physical educator, joint author of the Cali fornia public school physical educa tion law, one of the organizers of the Playgrounds Association of Amer ica. organizer and director for eight years of Chicago’s public recreation centers and considered an authority on physical development the worl^J over, has definitely allied himself with the boy scout movement by accepting the position of scout executive of the Los Angeles council. Rolinqilshing a position paying a much higher salary, DeGroot, in con senting to devote himself exclusive*, ly to the development of scouting in Los Angeles, offers another example of the high grade of men that are new being attracted to the move ment. DeGroot’s advent Into the execu tive phase of scouting will be hailed with enthusiasm by the hundreds of thousands of men and boys now con nected with the Boy Scouts of Amer ica, for the recflrd that he has built Iir the field of physical education is one that few men can excel or indeed equal In this country. SCOUTS NOT KNOWN IN COURT. “Of all the boys passing through the Juvenile court In the past year, not one was an active scout.” That was the statement of U. E. Harmon, city attorney of Tucoma, Wash., and is one of the most slgnl' Scant bits of information iii connection with the entire scout movement. Of the 700 boys now affiliated with the Tacoma council the fact that not one in active standing and only two who had ever had any connection with scout work should come undef the consideration of the court officers speaks for itself of the ideals of con duct that the scout movement gives the boys associated with it, It is said. “Scouting has always appealed to me for three reasons,” said Mr. Har mon, continuing his explanation of his great interest in tlm scout movement, “First, it teaches the boys the prac tical lessons they need to learn. Sec ond, It gives them the recreation and physical activities in the great out-of- doors. Third, it holds up to the boys the highest ideals of service and good citizenship. "Such teaching, training and activi ties for the growing boys have an in estimable value to a community,” con cluded Mr. Harmon. CHALLENGE TO THE CHURCHES. “I became well acquainted in the White mountains this summer with a layman from a large Eastern parish." writes Dr. Geoiige Parkin Atwater. In the Witness. “As we climbed Mt. Wil lard together, he asked, ‘What tin we need most? Could this church capture the child life?’ "It might,” I replied, “if it would be gin to train laymen for work among children, if it understood the meaning of the boy scout movement, if it poured its money Into training men and women rather than into bricks and mortar; in o^ier words, if it ac cepted the challenge of the children as Doc tor Gardner so finely puts it, and brought the training of children out of the basement into the chief place In the life of the church. “Moreover, never forget this: The surest way to the heart and life of the parent is through an interest in the child.” SCOUT REGISTRATIONS HELD. There Is so much of uncertainty Ic Industrial circles, so much of discon tent and of the spirit of waiting In th< national atmosphere, thftt It Is quit* understandable that scoutmasters wht have devoted tremendous energy tc their work through the war period should become a iittle more (tellberntf about their scout work this year. This tendency Is expressed nation ally In the delay of innumerable re registration blanks. Energy Is the secret of a prompt re registration which sustains the exten. slon work of national headquarters maintains the records of the boys wht will some day want the Veteran Seoul badge nqd contributes so largely to th< appreciation which the boys feel or de not feei regarding the opportunity t« be a part of a certain troop. FOREST SERVICE FOR SCOUTING, The forest service through Forester H. S. Graves, addressing Its officers on the extension campaign, said In part: “As you doubtless know, the boy scouts co-operated with the forest service Inst year In locating black wnl- nm for the war department. We have sought to encourage the use of the national forests by boy seouts in various ways. The forest service has a peculiar Interest In their activities and Ideals, a* they shonld have la ours.
