The ‘‘Boy Scouts’’ 
Manchester. 
Very few seem to realize the na- 
ture of this new organization of the 
‘““Boy Seouts of America’’ in our 
national life. 
This is not a mere play organiza- 
tion. There is a lot of play in it. 
There is the luring charm of every- 
thing that a boy loves to do out of 
doors, lots of it; but it is far more 
ambitious than this in its funda- 
mentals and study and work. It is 
meant to make manly boys out of 
mollycoddle boys, of whom there are 
many in this coming generation of 
men. It is meant to harden them 
physically, brighten them mentally, 
and purify them morally. 
The ‘‘Boy Scouts’’ are the young 
soldiers of peace, a part of a great 
international movement to inculcate 
reverence for law and order and 
foster the ideals of peace, while at 
the same time it is qualifying the 
Telephone Conan. 
MANCHESTER 
Movement ingggboys for war should this become im- 
"¥perative at any time. 
There are twelve fundamental 
principles in this organization: A 
‘‘Boy Scout’’ is trustworthy, loyal, 
helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, 
obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, 
clean, reverent. These things make 
for modern chivalry and for the 
practical Christianity the chureh 
teaches. It is only another form of 
true religion applied to that period 
of a boy’s life when he needs a sane 
and healthy view of religion. The 
local organization now to be con- 
summated in Manchester needs your 
help and your boy, but your boy 
needs the organization even more. 
Both the boy who has already re- 
ceived a training at home and the 
boy who has been pampered and 
spoiled, or neglected, are invited to 
join this movement if they are 
twelve years of age and over. 
A word about our camp on Dana’s 
Island. Instead of encouragement 
on the part of a number, I received 
criticism and even positive opposi- 
tion and many were the dire things 
predicted about our venture, all of 
which, I am happy to say, failed to 
materialize. I still hold, now dem- 
onstrated by a severe test, that 
Dana’s Island is an ideal camp site. 
Through the great kindness of 
R. H. Dana, we had the use of the 
island which he had prepared for us 
and also the use of the bungalow, 
added to which Mr. Dana granted us 
all the facilities attendant upon the 
use of the entrance through his es- 
tate, the privilege of the fine beach 
for bathing and sports, of getting 
our water supply at his house, and 
making it our headquarters for pro- 
visions, ete. And no one could have 
been more kind and solicitous about 
the boys, and the parents owe a 
deep sense of gratitude to Mr. 
Dana for all this, a kindness some- 
what rare in general. 
We also acknowledge with grati- 
tude the interest and help of Mr. 
Chester Crafts in repairing the 
bungalow and helping to make the 
camp-site comfortable and healthful. 
Thanks are also due to Messrs. 
Albert Cunningham, Harry W. Pur- 
rington, Willard Rust and Charles 
Dodge who helped to entertain the 
boys with refreshments and stories 
around the evening camp fire. 
To the parents who _ entrusted 
their boys to my judgment and eare, 
and to the boys themselves, who 
were obedient and willing to a 
marked degree, I am sincerely grate- 
ful; for which I am willing to do my 
best in the further training of the 
boys in the development of the 
manly and moral life. 
There were fifteen boys, besides 
their scout master, that entered 
camp under a steady downpour of 
rain which lasted several days, one 
of which, a _ northeast storm, 
marooned us on the island. But in 
spite of all the unfavorable criticism 
and the stormy weather we had 
good health and a grand good time, 
with the exception of one case of in- 
digestion and one ease of ivy pois- 
oning, of any consequence whatever. 
Today I count these fifteen boys the 
veterans of our ‘‘Boy Seouts,”’ 
whose experience of this week of the 
camp is very valuable as a demon- 
stration of what we can do and en- 
dure, an experience to inspire cour- 
age and hope in the overcoming of 
life’s difficulties.
