Not many people know any thing about the Boy Scout or ganization. Some have possibly concluded that it is an excuse for boys to idle away their time, form bad habits and become un ruly and mischevious. ' But quite the contrary. If the boys observe and carry out the rules and principles of the order it is one of the best things they can be in. Here is the oath or obligation each boy takes when he joins: 1. To do my duty to my God and my country, and to obey the scout law. 2. To help other people at all times. 3. To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. Under the rules of the scout law a boy is trained to be truth ful, trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedi ent, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and devout. They are forbidden to smoke, chew, curse, use bad or obscene language, engage in questip.nable pass times, iglleness, 'foolish sports, and such like. It will be a splendid training for any boy to be a member of the scouts and parents are encouraged to allow heir bo i s to join. It is a prob 1m with many parents in Pick ~ns now on the closing of the chool as to what the boys will o until school opelis again. The boy scouts will be helpful o them and also help the par mt" solve this problem. There is an organization~ here haded by Mr. Hagood Bruce s Scout Master, A better se ection of a leader could not ave been made I Pickens. fr.
