Boy Scout Trip
Boy Scout Troop No. 2, of Badin, Bob
White and Eagle Patrols, made a trip to
High Rock, Friday, October 10, returning
late Saturday. Seventeen scouts and the
Scoutmaster were present, and great fun
and exciting adventures were had. We
camped in Sunset Park, by the side of
the Yadkin River, an ideal spot for camp
ing, and cooked our beans and bacon
over the glowing coals of the camp fires.
After supper, practice in tracking and the
Scout pace was had, and other games
known to Scouts. Next day a hike was
taken to High Rock, where a beautiful
view of the Yadkin and surrounding
country can be enjoyed. A part of the
Troop participated in an exciting chase
after a Ford thief, who had eluded the
Deputy Sheriff and Justice of the Peace.
The rest of the day was spent in buying
out the country store, and pitching horse
shoes. Altho not much sleep was had,
all are enthusiastic over the trip, and are
in for another.
The officers of the Troop are: Rev.
T. G. Tate, Scoutmaster; Ernest Arthur,
Troop Scribe; Ralph Frazier, Troop
Treasurer. Bob White Patrol—Thurston
Hundley, Leader; Lawrence Rockfield,
Assistant. Eagle Patrol—Wade Curran,
Leader; and Robert Bizzell, Assistant.
Troop No. 2 meets every Monday night,
in the Community Building, at 7.30, and
is fixing up one of the small rooms in
the rear for a club room and meeting
place. There are enrolled on the Troop
register twenty boys, who are enthusi
astic over scouting, many of whom will
soon be ready to take the tests for a
first-class Scout.
There Was a Reason
Two exceedingly dirty youngsters were
playing in City Park. The older one had
sought to show his superiority by con
stantly saying:
“I’ll bet you five dollars,” and he was
ready to bet this sum on ’most anything.
They had turned away from the monkey
cage, when the older one, taking a long
look at the younger, said:
“I’ll bet you five dollars I’m dirtier
than you are.”
The smaller boy, without glancing
around, replied:
“Well, you oughta be; you’re older.”—
