West, chief scout executive. "Every White Star liner, whether making port In New York, Boston or | Halifax, carries two or three British sen scouts who are shipped as cadets,' are regular members of the crew and are getting an unforgettable nnd fascinating experience of real seafaring. "Some of these boys learn to love their good ship and the life of the sea so well that they continue In the service, sail the seven seas, make strange ports, and eventually become mates, officers or skippers." | In New York, Dr. J.

On the day that King George gave his great garden party to those who had distinguished themselves in patriotic work during the war, there were included only two organizations of young people. These were the boy scouts and the girl guides. The king particularly asked that the boys and girls themselves should be present to the number of 150, as representatives of the rest. Picked, as they were, one from every county In the British isles, they naturally presented a very smart lot. The king talked for quite a while In praise of the work of scoutmasters. Results were what he judged by, not the steps. Results are the only test, and the results reflected with greatest possible credit on the workers. He said that he had personal experience of this, because, on account of their capability, scouts had come now to be used for all large functions at the palace. And he went on to say this of scouting: "The beauty of a scout is that you never have to tell him what to do, and you can rely on his doing it. A scout never makes a mistake. I have never known a scout to make a mistake." 8COUT8 LIKE WOOL CAMP DUDS Bodily moisture can evaporate through woolens much more easily than through cotton or linen cloth, which keeps the moisture in Its texture until It Is thoroughly saturated. And ii in me uiiiupness next 10 tne skin that causes colds and chills?so stick to woolens. But, see that you wash 'em right! You kill their betterness right off If you let little bits of soap get In between the fibers and thus clog up the channels through which the moisture Is supposed to go. A good wny Is to soak the garments In lukewarm suds, then squeeze out the water by pulling the woolens through the hands. And don't twist or wring. If you don't want to invite stretching or shrinking. Just get out as much of the water as you possibly can and hang the "duds" up to dry. WHAT THE SCOUTS DO. At a victory celebration for the soldiers at Geneseo, N. Y? the boy scouts were asked to tnke care of two airplanes and guard them through the long night. Some hnppy scouts are those of I,os Angeles Troops 1 and 2. A short time ago they went over to Hollywood and were the guests of Mary Pickford. the movie star, who not only gave them a royal reception, hut also presented them with $25 for troop equtprtient. True to their far-famed slogan, i "The war Is ever hut our work is not," thousands of boy scouts nre co-operating with the war department by distributing tons of posters hearing the legend. "Put Fighting Blood lu Your Business." Another request has come from Uncle Sam. and the Boy Scouts of America, 400,000 strong, under the direction of 104,000 leaders, have rolled up their sleeves to "see the Job through." This time they are nsked to distribute posters urging soldiers, sailors and marines to keep op their Insurance.

In Great Britain fear is being felt that the trident of the ocean Is passing into new hands. This at least Is the note sounded by Archibald Html, the naval expert, writing in the London Dully Telegraph. "It is an arresting fact," lie says, "that. Judged by the strength of Its buttle squudrons in active commission, this country's supremacy lias at least temporarily passed away. . "The United States has now in commission 31 battleships, und Washingington plans to have 20 next year, the reduction in number being balanced by the increased power of some of the ships now approaching completion. "We have in n similar state of readiness 22 battleships and five cruisers, and. In accordance with the order published with reference to reduction to a reserve basis, our instantly ready battle force will fall at nn early date to 10 ships. 10 of them forming the Atlantic fleet and the other six cruising in the Mediterranean. It may he somewhat of an nfTront to our national pride that we should linve reached this secondary position at sea."
