Col. 3 Lewis made a speech of welcome P into the regiment on behalf of CoU McClelland who was unalbde to be present. Major McCumber made a y short sneech of welcome into the first battalion and predicted a bright 1;. future for the company. Capt. Poole made a short talk in which he assured the new unit of the hearty cooperar tion of all officers and men of Bat tery F. It should be said in pass ing that Capt.

General Metis and those in authority investigated the outlook carefully-, before locating this comp any, having been here sometime ago to look the situation over. That they were much impressed with the way the community was backing Battery F was .quite evident and General , Metis stated while here that unless l>. something developed to change the ¥ outlook that Raeford would get this I new unit. The location of this nev/ : company, means that the county ha: . two companies with a total of en ■Justed men and ten officers residing Iwliere. The total expenditures through f these two companies will be in ex cess of . twenty thousand dollars a ye,ar and this money means a lot in s financial way to the county, rein.g [well distributed and representing an income that would not otherwise be bad except for these companies. ■ The greatest good derived from . them, however, is the valua' -le train ing that they give to the men who are in them. The fellowship, d.sci- pline, and other training lare invalu able and mean a lot to the. county. The men in these outfits ma.ke the best of -citizens and.It is indeed rare one is ever indicted for any in- ffttion of the laws of the St,ate.

Here On Big Rat Killing Campaign There are many ways of eani^ Qi living and one of them is killing pats. That one unusual way for wo- mein is tlic choice of. Miss Madjce Case of Seattle and Miss Anna May Wright of Portsmouth, Va., and from all accounts they are not only making good for themselves but .for the communities they visit because of the wholesale slaughter they lea.ve in ^ rat fiaanSlies, whjch despite years «f intensive effort, seem multiply7', Miss Case and Miss Wnght point out. that consistent effort is necessary to kill them rff.

W. Rivers of Southern PUws, Boy Scout Ex ecutive for the alter Hines Pag Council of Boy Scouts, who made an interesting (talk on the work and d' jectives of toe Boy Scout move ment in America. Mr. Rivers em phasized the fact that our boys were our. greatest asset, that the boy was the only animal we had to make men out of, and our men in ,a large meas ure would l*e likg the boy from which they came. He made the startling statement that out of the 837,•000 Boy Scouts in America in 1928, only 17 wore convicted of any crime, but that there were 150,000 convicted that did not belong to -the scouts. He also said thait of the *1374 boys brought be fore the court in Waco. Texas, in fifteen years, only one was a scout. This was indeed gratifying to the club in its efforts to sponsor the scout movement here. Mr. Rivers’ remarks were greatly enjoyed bv the members of the club, and it is hoped that he can visit our town regularb- this year, not only to help out the acout.s but to attend the club" me-r- ings also.
