said “southern Negroes them¬

are happy under it."

paper ctt Augusts, declared:
"They were certainly naive,

hearts out to accomplish just
that.”
He asked several questions,
aimed at proving the students'
views wero orte-sidbd. Thej
were:
“Is not Use background of
the four students southern?
"Weren’t they guided or sub¬

"Was it impossible for them

YOUTH OF TODAY
Youth of today are somewhat
different, from those of the
past date,
They are not patient, they can
not wait,
Tiey do their work with little
fate.
Tfieir minds are young, they
know not hate
What hinders our youth from
being companions or a mate?
Our grandmothers and grand¬
fathers have lived their day.
Yet, somehow, they won’t give
(tie youth a chance to live
their way;
Regardless of what evil-mind¬
ed people may say,
Youth can make this world
both better and gay
If not there will be a great
debt to pay.
Who’s responsible for prejudice^
and d r,crimination?
Not only my people, but the
i whole wide nation, •
Youth are trying to fight for a
new foundation
W.iich can be built from a
simple equation:
Fnuallty and Brotherly Love
Can unite all people into one
great orgination.
Youth of today are the people
! of tomorrow,
; They don’t want to mourn In
a world of sorrow. n
Why not use one bow and one
arrow?
Let’s not have hearts that are
narrow
Youth of today don’t believe
In barriers.

SCOUTING ADVANCE
MENT
By T. J. Flanagan, Jr.
Field Scout Executive
The advancement program
prepares the boy for service to
others just as the Advance¬
ment Program builds self-reli¬
ance on the nart or line indi¬
vidual Scout, it also prepares
him for service to other peo¬
ple. The Scout motto is: Be
; Prepared,” and no other phase
of the Scout program Is more
effective in dramatiz.ng to the
Scout the significance of this
motto than is the Advancement
Program. T.ie Scout’s ad¬
vancement is not for selfish
ends. On the contrary, from
the time the boy becomes a
Tenderfoot scout until that
h gh moment when he attains
the Eagle rank, he should nave
a clear conception of his re¬
sponsibility to prepare himself,
through his advancement lor
service to other people.
Thus the Scout becomes rea¬
dy to "do his stuff” Wnen the
time comes. Per chance that
time may be when some great
emergency places human life
at stake, and when because of
h.s expert skill in administer¬
ing first aid he may experience
that highest joy of saving an¬
other numan being from death
Or, on the other hand, the
time may be represented by one
of a thousand comparatively
trivial circumstances — tr.vial
when compared with the sav¬
ing of life, but nevertheless
I important in that others nave
been made happier or more
comfortable or nave been oth¬
erwise helped because a Scout
was prepared.
It requires no stretch of
imag.nation to picture the Ad¬
vancement Program as a lad¬
der. Like any good ladder, it
has two uprights connected by
rungs. One of these uprights
is Scoutcraft—toe skill of the
Scout. The other upright we
could properly call Scouthocd
—-the qualities of the Scout,
what he really is.
Climbing the ladder of Scout
Advancement—from the Ten¬
derfoot rung to the Second
Clads riiig, from ,i'.ie iJicond
Class rung on up to the Eagle
Scout rung—involves progress
not only in terms cf the skills
of Scoutcraft, but also in terms
of the qualities of Scouthood.
This is written into the very
requirements for advancement.
Only by a stretch of imagina¬
tion could one picture a Scout
keeping his right foot on the
ground on the side of Scout-
Good, while attempting to
clijnb to the Second or the
First Class rung with his left;
foot on the s.de of Scoutcraft
The lesson is clear. All of
(hose who bear relationship to
the Scout as he climbs the
ladder have a responsibility to
see to it that he understands
the significance of the experi¬
ence in both of these terms.
