Prompt ami timely attention to this roquosl will save all parties a grcnt deal of annoyance. With the advent of good roads in Wise county, the auto? mobile will come to stay. It is good to practice what von preach, bill he careful what you preach ami make your sermons short. With the approach of Spring the fanners, at any rote, are preparing to "go hack to the soil." ? It looks as if Harry K Thaw were managing to ?.noiii'w very ofToclively by abstaining from further legul advice, The St. Petersburg doctor wlio made d specialty of "re? moving" undesirable relatives did a very profitable hustllt b8 "ChampClark complains that we have too many rainbow chasers " One ol whom Champ is which, a good many persons think The Washington dispulclu h say that "the new Canadian reciprocity agreement will bei treated by Congress like an ordinary bill." Help! One of the most touching! Illings in modern history is thi! way the Steel Trust is worrying about how reciprocity is going to injure the American fanner A Chicago minister has left j (tie pulpit for the vaudeville singe, hut then we lind foolsI and rogues in every walk of life Fifty thousand Americans arc going over to England next summer to see King George crowned. The rest of us can see it for a nickel at some mpi ing picture show without being crowded "Speaker Cannon, after! March 4, when Congress is ofT his hands, proposes to g,. to Europe and visit crow tied heads." When he strikes Ulis sia he may expect especial royal | sympathy, as an lincrownot1 and dethroned czar. The man who advertises is the man who honestly tries to increase his business and is not ashamed to let his community know that he tries Such men deserve our encouragement There is one w ay t hat ('on grcss can make a "hit" with the country. That is by tush ing its business through before March I, and ko home ami sta\ there, and let the industries of the country ''gol busy ." We do not want an extra session, we want rest from agitation. We tire a sweet nation We consume morO sugar in a year than any other nation under the sun. Therefore it is gratifying that our nation is producing more beet sugar every year For the year ending June 80, the production of beet sugar in the United States was 1 ,026,000, tun? pounds. The manufacturing of beet sugar is a comparatively new industry, but we will soon be able to raise OUrOwn supply. The Scout Law !. A Scout's honor is to *bo trusted. If n scout says "On my honor it is so.*' that means that it is so, just us if he had taken a most solemn oath. Similiarly, if a scout officerj snys to a scout. "I trust you on your honor to do this," the scout is bound to carry out the order to the very host of his ability, and to let nothing in terfere with his doing go. If ;( scout were to break his honor by telling a lie, or by not carrying out mi order exactly when trusted on his honor to do so, he may be directed to hand ovet his scout badge, ami never to wear it again, lie may also be directed to cease to bo a scout. ?J. A scout is loyal to the President, and to bis officers, and to his parents, his country, I and his employers, He must stick to them through thick ami ami thin against anyone who is their em my or who even talksj badly of them. 3. " A scout's duty is to he useful and to help othei - \ nd he is to do bis duty before tiny tiling el si . even t hough lie givt ? up his own pleasure, or coin) oil, or safety to tic it. W hen in I difficulty to know which of two things to do. he must ask him , self, "Which is my duty?'' that is. "Which is liest for other people!" ? and do that one. Hi' must he prepared at nil) time to save life, or to help inj tired persons. And he must try his best to do a good turn to some bod) ex et y day. I A scout is a friend to all, and a brother to every other scout, no matter to what social class I he ol her heloligs. Thus if a scout moots another scout, even though a stranger lo him. he inusl speak to him, and help him in any way thai he can, either to carry out the duty In-is then doing, or by giving him food, or, Iis l ill possible, anything that be may I iie in want of. A scout III list | never be a snob. A snob is one | who looks down upon another I lo cau>e he is poorer, or who is poor mid resents another be cause he is rich. A scout accepts the other man as lie| llmls him. and makes the bosl <>f him. "Kim," t he hoy scout, wan call, d by the Hindoos "Little friend 91 all the world," and I that is the mime that every scout should cam for himself. 6. A scout is courteous: That is, he is polite to all?hut especially to women ami child ti ll, and old pcoplonitd invalids, ciipples, etc And lie must not take any reward for being helpful or courteous. 0. A scout ts a friend to animals. lie should save I hem as far as possible from pain, ami should not kill any animal unnecessarily, even if it is only a tl x for it is one of (lad's creatures. Killing an animal for food is allowable. 7. A scout obeys orders of Ins parents, patrol leader, 01 schoolmaster w ithout question. Even if he nets an order he does not like he must do an soldiers and Sailors do, he must carry it out all the same because it is Ins dtltj : and after he has done it In- can come and state any reason against it, but he must carry out the order at once. That is discipline. s. A scout smiles ami looks pleasant under all circuit! | stances. When he gets an order lie should obey it cheerily -nut readily, not in a slow, hang "log sott of way. Scouts never grumble at hardships, nor whine at each other, nor swear when put out When you jtisi miss a train, or some one treads on yout favorite corn?not that a scout ought to have such things as coin- or under any unaoying! circumstances. \ 011 should force yourself to smile at once, and then whistle a tune, and you will be all right. A scout goes about with a smile on It cheers him and Cheers other people, especially in time of danger, for he keeps it up then alt the same. Tin- punishment for swearing or using bail language is for each oflCIICe a mug of cold w uior to be poured down the offend et's sleeve by the other scouts. It was iho punishment invented by the old ltritish scout, ("apt. .lohn Smith, three bundled > ears ago. ?'. A scout is thrifty, that is. be miies every penny he can. mid puts it into the bank, so that be may have money to keep himself w hen out of work, and thus not make himself a burden to others; or thai he may have money to give iiwny to Others when they need it.
