HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times, 1922-12-7, Page 7The BOY Scout Movement has taken a' greater grip on the imagination of the youngpeople of Canada than any 1o n Y similar undertaking. The movement is, in fact, unique of its kind, con- ceive ixraa rat 'v d, us'ui ted and davelopeci ll. a great soldier, not for military b- , ei 0 jeots but with tale ecce nil but ahri- 4 n Yom. U pats', gtic purpose- of malting 'Mainly boys a`ikd worthy citizens. The movement has beyond succeeded be all calculation d y , having spread to all countries, and g l C i n constantly adding to its big roll call, At a recent meeting of the Canadian General Council of The Boy Scouts Association presided oder by the .Gov ernor'-Gemeral, it was announced that larger offices were necessitated at na- tional headquarters on account of the tremendous inorease in the work. Ear- ly next year theChief Scout, Sir Rej ert Baden-Powell himself, will visit Canada, atncl lie will surely see evidences of great growth 'since his last visit to the Dominion, The ` idea has "taken on" because it gives the young people jjust what they most need and enjoy. Boys always get together in groups for play, for re aiicl creation' exercise; e $0, the Boy Scout movement takes ,account of this na- tural instinct and provides the oppor- tunity of indulging it under the best possible conditions.' Whla't appeals more to the average boy than camp life and all its jelly assooiations? Yet what chance would he have of enjoy- ing such fun if it wes-e not for his membership in the Scouts? The pride in his troop, the friendly rivalry, the constant test of his qualities—these are the things which, prove has Inde- pendence and bring out his real worth. Every "good scout" must be a little gentleman The honor of the troop is in bts keeping, and the teaching and training he receives • forbid the com- mission of a mean action of any kind. Let the Scout always remember that they are engaged in serious business —the most serious business of their liaes--nothing les s than the formation of character. It is not a matter of just nlarcliin:g and drilling , and being ef- ficient o )eery 1 e+rs• but i, t is a matter of being honorable and; upright i z every undertaking. This is the aspect of the Boy: ScoutMovementwhlich makes it so valuable and appealing. The high- est ideals are aimed at. It is for. every Scout to see that they are attained. Another Scout Hero. Scout Fredeiric LeClair of the 1st Espanola Troop has been awarded the Boy Scout Gilt Cross for Life Saving and tale medal will be presented to him shortly. Scout LeClair was in- strumental in -saving the life of a com- panion from drowning. His is the sax- teenth award made to . Ontario Scouts during 1922 for life. saving and other meritorious services. Music as a;Life Asset. If music' is made part of the life of every child, as baseball, dancing and reading are part of his life, a natural spontaneous • activity, we shall be a musical people. But if music will eon- tinue to be classed with geology and foreign languages as a school study to which several half Mauve a week are grudgingly devoted ` we shall find the next generation of men being dragged to concerts and the opera as reluctantly as this one is. The homeopathic doses of music ad ministered once or, twice a week by private teachers to- most well brought up children make very little impres- sion, especially when each lesson is prefaced with the usual 'I didn't his e much time to practice, we had so much homework this week." But if musical' notation were taught inthe primary grades along with, the three ".R's-" ,we should soon have plenty of children turning as naturally to their song books for their recreation as to fairy. tales. And if the public school provided short selected programmes of good music for assembly once a week, or • even twice, we should in a very short time : find our children quite as much interested in the worleS of the great composers as In the products ' of the jazz factories. There are countless other ways in wliuch music might be made an inti- mate part of school life, such as study ing national music hi conjunction with geography or period music with his- tory and. iterature. The essential thing is that the attitude „towards music be changed, the rest will come of itself. And when the importance of music as a life asset -is realized, .perhaps even the school schedule will be re- laxed to the extent of allowing a child who really cares to master the technic of any art sufficient time to do it in a dignified and unhurried manlier.` Bible Preserved in Pepper.

Think of it, every time the clerks- of Canada strike the !Lour, year in and year out, it marks th passing of another of our citizen's who might have been saved. Science and practical: demonstration have, proven that tuberculosis is preventable, and in moistcases curable -if taken, i � time. � n In these strikingwords, President A, B, Cook of the a Canadian Associa- tion for the Prevention of Tubercul- osis opened his address before the Public Health Congress at St. John; N.•B,, recently.,' What Mr. Cook said. then holds good to -day. The fight against tuberculosis is; still being wag- ed strenuously, with prospects of goodn P surces's, But a as Mr. C•o, 1, o very piling : cents plainly out, in silence ,and insicti�ousness are the features of the enemy's attack it should be our' duty to counter attack with loud noise, .se laud that` - the, eo. pie shall' become alarmed' and demand the observance of preventive measures for those who - are threatened,' and that provision shall be made for the care of those now suffering with the lisease. Little has been clonethe byte Fed,eral. Government to ',combat tuberculosis , sdrated beyond question the°value" of their . work, and the results obtained should !be ;inefficient to induce the Fed- eral Government to take its proper 'place in � the firing line. 'and lend •lis assistance to the organizations that, have been doing the pioneer worst. It is 'true that the. Dominion a Goy- ernment realize the importance of bovine infection n among catle,(the-bovine type -of Yp tuberculosis gerrin is similar but not identical with the human type.) During the past few years the Government has extend- ed the activities of the Health of Ani- mals branch towards the suppression of tufbereulosieamong'. our herds. The results obtained amply justify the efforts put forth and the money ex- pended, and o'r•ly demonstrates in a More conclusive .manner, that proper- ly directed energies along improved lines, means •the suppression of the disease, and, possibly its extermina- tion. In some of the areas of the United States, where intensified efforts have been going on for some time, a ease of tuberculosis among cattle is seidbm `found. The same remarks can be made while iapeaking, of the efforts made to eradicate the human type of tuberculosis, and all that seems neces- sary is to secure funds sufficient to put into practical use the recognized and approved methods of dealing with the disease.
