BOY 'SCOUTS OBSERVE
ANNIVERSARY WEEK j
I
For the second time in observing (
Scout .Anniversary week the local j
boys have invited their dads and the j
local committee to join with them inj
celebrating. Last year it was at an 1
oyster supper. On Monday evening off
this week the boys and invited guests I
met at the Haynes ball park and j
enjoyed a camp supper. The Scouts[
paired with the visitors in cooking
the meal and soon there was the
aroma of coffee, bacon, sausages,
broiling steaks and many other things
that made it hard to wait until all
was ready to eat. About the time |
the meal was over one of the fires j
was replenished until there was a
large camp-fire Jb'lazing. .At the sound
of the Scoutmaster's whistle all came
' to order and sang "Hail, the Gang's
i all here." Then the troop held a
I brief meeting, this being the regular
I night for their meeting. After this
- there were charades, stunts, contests
■ and many games in which the boys
t were much pleased to see that the
- visitors entered into with a show of
i genuine interest and gusto.
1 In several of the games and stunts
Published in Connection With The Forest City Courier
the visitors were first shown by the
Scouts giving a demonstration. One
game that afforded a great deal of
fun is a race in which the contestants
stand on two ordinary coffee cans
with another can placed a little be
fore them. At the signal the player
steps one foot to the can in front and
then mu«t bend down and take the
can he has just stepped from and
place it in front and so on until the
goal is reached. If one touches the
ground he has to go back to the start
ing point and begin all over again.
Two rather portly visitors were se
lected by the boys to race and one
of them found that he could not quite
reach down far enough to pick up the j
can. His efforts convulsed the boys
with yells of laughter.
The Scoutmaster called all to order
again soon after nine o'clock think- j
ing that the visitors, not accustomed i
to the outdoor exercises would like
to go home and to bed. The camp- j
fire was still blazing when the fol
lowing sung by the boys to the tune j
of "Taps." "Day is done, Gone the
Sun, From the lake, from the hills, ;
from the sky, All is well, safely rest, j
God is nigh." Then all joined in an .
Indian benediction after which all j
were at liberty to go home, but the ,
boys and several of the visitors ex- •
pressed a desire to stay longer. One .
of the "dads" yet in his thirties de- j
clared he had not had so much fun j
in years. It was after ten o'clock be-1
fore the fire was finally extinguish-1
ed and all had gone.
Another fine specimen of the art
of taxidermy is on display in the lob
by of the R. R. Haynes Memorial
Building. Mr. Chas. McCurry has re- i
cently finished a course in taxidermy ;
and his second job which is one dis- i
play here is a wild goose. In the lob
by now is a fine large eagle, two
large hawks, the goose just mention
ed and a Silver King Tarpon mount
ed on a suitable board. It was caught
in the Gulf of Mexico by a Mr. H. S.
Hardin on June 16, 1906—nearly
| twenty-three years ago. The fish is
15 feet and 9 inches long and weigh
ed 128* pounds. A pretty good min

* THE CITY SO FAIR *
In the Bible we are told,
Of a city of light.
Where the streets are of gold
Shining so bright.
Where some of our loved ones
Have gone on before,
To that beautiful home,
Where sorrow is no more.
I want to go there,
When my time comes to die,
To be with my loved ones
In that city so fair.
With Jesus forever,
On the bright strand,
Around the great throne,
Forever to stand.
