The \ more than three thousand dollars, and That camping with the boy scouts has ushered in a new era is evidenced by the vast interest shown in winter camping ns opposed to the ordinary summer camp conducted during the long school vacation period. Last season over 200,000 boy scouts in more than 25,000 neighbor hood group camps of boy scouts learned the ways of the woods, and by so doing have a new interest to lead them again into the great out of doors. These youthful "Nimrods,” in their enthusiasm foi the conquest of the wonderland thus revealed, will in great er number this winter continue the camping program in broken doses, so to speak, on weekend and vacation throughout the days of the whole win ter season, and grown-ups will wonder why they didn’t discover a similar plan long ago. Thus say the scouts: Mosquitoes we have in summer, but in winter no one is lonesome without their music. Flies are the bane of our summer ex istence, and won’t learn to be careful where they walk, but they, too, are conspicuous by their absence after No vember. Swimming is not so popular In winter camps, although a few of us are hardy enough to dive in even when it is necessary to break the ice on the old swimmin’ hole. Winter gives snow and ice which helps us to forget swimming, anyhow, and re lieve our parents of much of the worry about canoes, boats and disaster in camp. Yes, we must have more blankets to keep us warm and more fire wood, but wood you cut for yourself warms you twice, and the scout motto is "Be prepared.” Many scouts will tent In Here Is Winter Sport the Boys Enjoy. While Summer Sports Were Enjoy, able, the Snappy Weather Bothers Them Not, and They Are Ready for a Long Season With Jack Frost. the snow, snug and warm with a fire Inside their tent, but hints from their big brothers about trench and dugout life learned in the World war will lead many to “dig in,” and so defy even the severest attacks of old Boreas. This new development in outdoor adventure goes to prove that the Amer ican boy is no mollycoddle, nnd if given his way selects vigorous and even difficult tasks in scouting and camp life. Scouting Is looked upon by scouts as an all-year-round game for which no rain checks are ever handed out. Most everybody can go camping in July, but only those who have camped the calendar through know the choice thrills nnd genuine sport that scouts have in store In winter camping. county board of freeholders has di rected the war to reimburse two con victs whose terms had expired and who threatened to sue the county If their overcoats, checked when they entered were not either produced or paid for.

SCOUTS RESCUE CLIMBER. He couldn’t get up and he couldn’t et down—that was the predicament of Louis E. Selder, director 1 of the De fender club of New York. And it fell to the lot of boy scouts to de fend him from the most powerful force In the world, the force of grav ity. Mr. Selder took the notion he would scale the Palisades of the Hud son river at one of their steepest points. After ascending 150 feet he was unable to go higher or to de scend in safety. Boy scouts of Troop 89, Brooklyn, under two patrol leaders, who were hiking along a low trail, heard his call for aid and with their scout ropes and at much personal risk managed to save him. Mr. Selder proved his grati tude by writing to the boys’ school master saying that he “could not ex press in words my feelings, but down In my heart I feel a deep regard for those boys and the scout movement.” G.
