tho ARKANSAS CITY DAILY TRAVELER, THURSDA FEBRUARY 8, 1923 PAGE FIVE An American business man, hav. ing temporarily lost his bearings in a London fog, paused on a street corner. A newsy, seeing the gentleman's dilemma, asked if he could be of any assistance. The gentleman accepted the boy's guidance to his hotel and naturally offered the guide a substantial tip. The boy drew himself up with dignity and explained that he was a Boy Scout that Boy Scouts did not take pay for' doling their good turns.

The gentleman's interest was aroused extent that he sought out Baden Powell, the founder of scouting and chief of the British Scouts' Association, and learned what this scouting business really was. When the business man returned to America, he interested others in the scout movement. The result was that the Boy Scouts of America was incorporated 8, 1910. On June 15, 1916, congress granted the organization a special federal charter, among other things, ing the Boy Scouts of America exclusive right to the name and adaptions thereof, insignia and uniform. This good-turn idea has been installed into the lives of over three million boys and now being ticed.

by nearly 400,000 between the ages of 12 to 18 and thousands of leaders over 18. The teaching of this spirit of helpfulness to the boys of Arkansas City should be carried on for a larger number of boys. The Arkansas City council invites you to attend as many of the meetings of the organization during anniversary week as possible sO you can see the conduct of your boys under the influence of scouting and find out what you can do to help in the work of the movement.
