The high roller who is simply
rolling: in wealth might find bet
ter use for it.
Marriage is a tie, but it isn't
necessarily noose. Sometimes
it is merely a slip knot.
It costs nothing to give advice,
but sometime it costs a lot to
those who receive it.
The mac who shows the
white feather needn't expect the
rest of the world to be color
blind.
Truly there is a tide in the rf
fairs of men; but there is no gulf
stream setting forever in one
direction. ? Lowell.
Farmville Boy Scout Movement
To the Parents of Farmville
by the Assistant Scout Master:
I wish to make myself so^bold
as to speak to those of you to
day who htve boys in our troop
of scouts as a child wouid to his
parents, not as a father to his
child.
We have organized a troop of
boy scouts in our little town as
doubtless you know, and I wish
to say parent it was not organ
ized because we had nothing
else to do, we did not start it
that we might be known as
holders of the required offices
but, parents we dis it that our
younger? may I say brother,
might learn from the experience
of the Scout Master ped I. Moie
than that. We have a hand
book prepared by authorities of
the different branches with
which it deals. Listen to this:
Boy Scouts of America are loyal
to the stars and stripes, they are
faithful aad most of all, Christ
taut.
The boys of Farmville, mothers
and father*, as is the case in
every oihet place need training,
so I urge you to no: be negli
gent in your incouragin^ them
to be active members.
May I ask you one question.
Had you rather see your boys
with the qualities of a disting
uished statesmen than first class
loafers? I will have the pleasure
of seeing by noticing the attend
ance of your boys.
The Boy Scout Movement was
begun by excellent statesmen;
therefore, it has the qualities of
them.
Very truly yours,
ALFRED J. FLANAGAN
