What is Scouting? Scouting is a program of interestuseful things for boys to do in ing, their leisure time. These boys learn the mysteries of Woodcraft, of First Aid, Swimming and Life Saving, of Outdoor Cooking and Camping, of Signaling, Map Making, Hiking and Citizenship. Like the Red Cross, the Boy Scouts of America is chartered directly by Congress and the President of the United States is its Honorary President. The Scoutmasters are picked local men, who give their time without because of their interest in the pay boys of America. Scouting gives boys a chance to serve their community.

Its activities not only give pleasure and knowledge, but they prepare to meet community emergencies. When tornado struck Omaha or Southern Illinois- when flood swept on Pueblo -when earthquake and fire hit California--when powder magazines expoded in New JerseyScouts proved at once their readiness to serve. Scouting is neither military nor anti-military. It carefully avoids political or commercial entangle ments. Scouting knows no race or creed or class.

Troops are found alike in Catholic Parish, Jewish Synagogue and Protestant Church. It is available to farm or city alike. It is found in schools--it serves the rich as it serves the poor. Its aim is to help each of these boys to become the best citizen that he can make of himself. His Daily Good Turn to some one is the Scout's effort to help the other fellow also to make the best of himself.

Each year new thousands upon thousands of boys join the Boy Scouts of America. They find not only fun, but also a real chance to be something more. Every boy really wants to make good--to amount to something--to be of value in life. The ideals of our great Americans like Washington and Lincoln and Roosevelt and Wilson (and others) stir us all to ambition and the desire to be real men. Every man faces three big problems: 1.

Master of his own powers, getting them keen and ready for use. 2. Getting along with other people. 3. Finding a worthy use for these powers.

The tremendous sweep of Scouting has come because it helps a boy with these problems--helps him find himself and his powers -helps him Be Prepared. Leisure time, the nothing tithe, can make or break any fellow. Some boys have checked up on their own time and were surprised to find that they had six or eight hours of leisure time daily. Scouting provides attractive things to do, in this spare timethings, too, that "get one Scouting helps the Scout to value the great heritage which the past. has brought to him in the life and; ideals of America, and Scouting points the way of good.

citizenship through service. Not getting but giving- not only receiving but givting back something that shall, as Lincoln phrased the world better because of out life in On Friday evening, February 2, the Hopewell School was robbed of the following property: A water fountain, mirror, water bucket, a large new International Dictionary, a practically new set of Compton's Pictured Encyclopedia and some Library Books. What a pity that there are people who are so inconsiderate! Some may say, "Well, what is that when banks are being robbed of such large sums. But let us just stop to consider the value, of the property that was stolen from our school and I think you will agree that this was a greater crime than some thefts involving greater actual money value. Taking the first three collectively -they can all be replaced with an expenditure of less than five dollars.

However, it is no easy matter for a school board to have even five dollars ready for such unexpected Our school finances, as are many others at this time, are guarded very conservatively so as to serve our community in the best way with the lowest possible levy. Therefore if we can manage to replace these things at all, it will take at least several days. During this time we will have no facilities for hand washing and children will be forced to go out doors in any kind of weather and possibly drink ice cold water. It goes without saying that both of these inconveniences are very dangerous to the children's health and could lead to dangerous illness. The other articles have a much greater money value and are ly as necessary to us.

All of our pupils have acquired the habit of using the dictionary every day, but were it not for another reason, which we will mention later, we would not lament this loss so greatly; because we have smaller tionaries which will serve the pose in most cases. Our most expensive loss was the loss of our greatest aid in reference work. Our School Board bought a set of the new Compton's Pictured Encyclopedia for us last year. Since they were new to the pupils it took a while for them to discover what a wealth of knowledge was stored in the books. We were, however, just giving them their utmost use this year.

Every day there was something in one or more of the assignments for which we needed to refer to the Encyclopedia. In addition many of the pupils were beginning to use them for recreational reading in special subjects in which they were particularily interested. In this way the Encyclopedia may serve in shaping the lives of our pupils. When someone steals the set he not only steals some sixty dollars from our school board, but in times like this when the school board cannot replace them, the thief has robbed each of 22 pupils of a part of their priceless possessioneducation. Another grievance which we hereby experience that after working practically two years to meet the requirements for an approved school, our expectations aret F.

Mittler, Teacher. Mrs. George Malicoat Dead Hopewell School Robbed Friday Emma Katherine Becker, eldest daughter of Herman and Anna Becker, was born near Truxton, September 1, 1886. Here she grew to womanhood, and on March 20, 1907, she was married to George Malicoat of near Bellflower, where they resided until 1914, when they moved to a farm near New Florence. In 1931 they came to Hancock's Prairie, where they lived at the time of her death.

She died January 24, 1934, at the age of 47 years, months and 24 days. Death came almost without warning, following an attack of asthma, which had troubled her for a number of years. She was the mother of eight children, two girls dying in infancy. Those living are Mrs. Clifton Clark of Bernheimer, Guy, Franklin, Helen, Marjorie and Martha.

She also leaves her husband, two grandchildren and one brother, Wm. Pillmeyer, to mourn her death, and a number of relatives and friends. She was a loving mother and kind neighbor, often mentioning the Golden Rule, and will be greatly missed. Funeral services were held Friday afternoon at the Presbyterian Church in Bellflower, conducted Rev. Jas.

Dutton, after which her remains were tenderly laid to rest the family lot beside her two Standard.

(tf) Try our Want Ad Column. CORN-HOG SIGN-UP MEETING TOMORROW (Continued from page 1) half of all hogs farrowed ever reach the market. If the program is to be effective in reducing productions, it is obvious that the basis for reduction must be the number of hogs actually marketed. Many farmers ask to include in their base figures hogs stolen or lost in other ways; if exceptions of this kind were made, the program soon would be demoralized. "Some farmers might have produced more hogs during the last two years if they had been able to grow or buy food for them, and the cases of these farmers may be just as deserving as the case of a farmer who would have produced and marketed more hogs if he had not been plagued by hog cholera.

All of the circumstances that make a grower unable to raise hogs to the point at which they are marketed, are part of the hazards of farming, and Government funds can not be used to reimburse farmers for es from such hazards. Using the two-year base instead of a one-year base for hog producers will tend to equalize the rulings among growers generally. "We have tried to provide for as many of the exceptional cases as possible in drawing the regulations, whenever it seemed that doing so would not seriously hamper the program. We believe, however, that putting into the hog production base figure the number of hogs stolen or lost through disease would seriously affect the results of the program, and the success of the program is vital to the entire corn and hog industry and to agriculture New Exemption on. Processing Tax New regulations exempt farmers from processing tax up to three hundred pounds home butchered hog products sold or exchanged from own raising if total sale or exchange does not exceed one thousand pounds annually.

Exemption lost if total exceeds one thousand pounds. Plans for added support to hog market through relief purchases also announced. Interpretation of Clause 3 Interpretation of 3 (a) in the contract: If a man had a total of 100 acres of crops planted for harvest in his highest year (1932 or 1933), and is contracting 10 acres to the Government, then his total crop acreage for 1934 can only be 90.
