BOY SCOUTS TAKE
HIKE OVER THE HILLS
DOUGLAS. March 24?Prof. R. R.
Boll took ton boy scouts out Saturday I
morning. On leaving the Douglas
postoffico they made it to the bridge
beyond the cemetery In twelve min
utes. Here the scoutmaster selected
two companions to go with him, mak
ing a trail as they went by dropping
scraps of paper at Intervals. These
three were given ten minutes start
and then followed a thirty minutes
J run over logs, through thick under
I brush, over ravines and up the moun
tain steep. It was an intricate trail.
worthy of an old-timer.
The .scouts hold at bay chafed un
der the ten minute wait as though
it were half a day. When at last per
mission wus given to go, they went
up the trail bellowing llko hounds on
the hot trail of a deer. There were
mnny ups and downs, somo slipping
off of logs, and an occasional grasp
ing of a devil's club, to keep from
fulling, only to be followed by the
wish that he had taken the fall. Now
and again the trail was lost, but Quick
ly would come the call, "here It Is,"
and again they were off.
Then the end of the trail nnd the
search for the leaders who were per
mitted to hide at any place within fif
ty yards. Fifteen minutes were al
lowed for the search, and time was
called before anyono had been locat
ed. One of the leaders had thrown
himself between two logs that tho
searchers had walked over nnd over.
Two others were hiding In a nearby
clump of underbrush.
Tho boys were tired and ready to
go home after a feed on apples.
All the scouts are looking forward
to the next "hike" with great expec
tancy, nnd others have asked tho pri
vilege of joining them.
