SEQUEL TO THE "GREAT
COON HUNT"
Molly and Wheeler, Buck and Ben;
All got traded and swapped again.
Wh-eeler to Jim Holden and Molly to "Bear”,
For the dogs wouldn’t tree, but would run a hare.
Now, Charlie’s got Buck, and Babe, old Drum;
And rabbit’s the tune they’re starting to hum.
Coons will never be caught by these men’s dogs
Because these dogs can’t smell on wet, slick logs.
Clayton and Norton said, "There just ain’t any
coon!”
Now, I suppose, "There’s no rabbits!” will be their
tune!
NEW IDEAS
UNIQUE AUTOMATIC WRIST WATCH
fully winds itself while it is being worn and keeps
running for 46 hours after it is taken off. A free-
swinging rotor starts winding the watch when it
is put on the wrist and builds up the extra re
serve running power in a few hours.
SHUTS OUT MOTHS—For storing out-of
season clothing in small apartments and homes, a
new air-, dust-, and moth-tight wardrobe is now
available. The entire container consists of just 2
pieces, and can be set up in only 2 minutes.
VERSATILE GOLF CLUB—Another new ad
justable golf club is set to various pitches by a
dial on the clubhead. The manufacturer says the
new club is compact, well balanced, and easy to
adjust.
WATER RAZOR—Soaps, creams, or electricity
are not necessary shaving equipment, says the
manufacturer. The Fonta water razor fills with
water as a fountain pen does with ink and sup
plies constant water lubrication to soften and raise
beard. It uses standard types of slotted wafer
blades.
CAN OPENER FOR TIRES—Operated like a
can opener, a new lever tool mounts or dismounts
auto tires. The handle of the tool is pushed up
and down around the rim of the wheel to take the
tire off, or put it on again.
CAN-O-MAT—Shipments are now under way
for a new "Can-O-Mat” wall-type can opener. The
unit features ^ single action handle that pierces
and opens cans, automatically.
PAINT FOR CONCRETE FLOOR—"Oncrete
for Concrete,” according to the manufacturer, has
high adhesion performance on concrete, brick, and
other porous masonry surfaces—inside and out
side; because it is almost 100% free of driers and
oils. This gives it a strong resistance to the alkali
and moisture in concrete, which cause porch and
deck enamels to break down.
RAINBOW PENCIL—An automatic pencil
which can write in any of 6 colors—black, green,
orange, blue, yellow, and red, is the "66”, recently
marketed.

liam Fowler, 4 year old

THE SCOUT BADGE
A Tenderfoot wears the trefoil, a Second Class
the scroll, a First Class the complete Badge. The
trefoil represents the three parts of the Oath; The
stars stand for truth and knowledge; the eagle is
our national emblem; and the knot on the scroll
reminds them of an obligation to do a Good Turn
Daily.
