THE Boy Scouts of America have rendered notable service to the _ Boy S¤~¤¤¢s¤¢Amer- Nation during the world war. They have done effective work in the ‘°‘}+mmb1¤_ Liberty Loan and lVar Savings campaigns, in discovering and reporting upon the black walnut supply, in_cooperat1ng with the Red ross and other war work agencies, in acting as despatch bearers for the Committee on Public Information, and in other important fields. The Bo Scouts have not only demonstrated their worth tp the Nation, lmt have also materially contributed to a deeper appreciation by the American people of the higher conceptions o patriotism and good citizenship. The Boy Scout movement should not only be preserved, but strengthened. It deserves the support of all public-spirited citizens. The available means for the Boy Scout movement have thus far sufficecl for the organization and training of only a small proportion of the boys of the country. There are approximately 10,000,000 boys in the United States, between the ages of twelve and twenty-one. gin these only 375,000 are enrolled as members of the Boy Scouts of erica.
