Sconting Has Tnrect Value
DEAR PARENTS:
For ssveral weeks Scout* leaders
of this district have tried to organ
ize a Cub Pack among our boys;
they, however, have not received
the porper resoonae. It ia frit that
if you knew the value of such as
organization among our boys a
keener interest wfll be developed.
With this aim in view a short re
minder on the great value of this
society in a boy’s life is here given.
“When a boy roaches his ninth
birthday, he may join the Cub
Scouts and start anew game
which his whole family plays with
him. He joins a Cob Pack and a
Cub DeiEHU Cub Den meets week
ly in his home or the home of an
other Cub Scout. He has a leader,
the Den Chief, who is an older
boy and he has a Den Mother.
Maybe his father is a Den Dad.
Once a month there is a Pack
meeting of all tip Dens in his Cub
iSTs
Scout motto is “Do your Bet."
