Tha present Board of Directonl

training ten thousand scouts will
save one life, the training is Justifi
ed.” Our cool head will often pre
vent a pain*. If a scout wUI learn
properly how to cross a street,
bow to get oft a car, how to icon*,
duct himself during a fire drill
and so on. It wUI surely decrease
very materially, the aeddenttl
deaths which occur every day.
FIRST AID
TRAINING
The training In flyat' aid to the
Injured Is one of the most practical
features of the 8cout program.. If
a boy has carefully studied his

his first aid merit hedge. It should
enable him to
immediately give assistance la
case of accidents. “It drives Lome
the Scout Ideal of service.” Eveyr
Scoot should know how to per
form artificial respiration. ' Ho
ahonld not only know what to do
to help an injured penoa hot how
to apply hi* knowledge quickly
until a doctor can be called. It
may mean the raying ot a life. .
