was so interested in this bad boy that
I decided to see him myselfand find
out it he was sa hopeless as pictured,
(I have never yet discovered a really
bad boy in 12 years': experience among
them). I made some other inquiries,
but was keenly disappointed In the fe-
sults. I again visited the Wolf Cubs
and asked if they were decided on
tiieir choice of leadership, at the same
time trying to switch over ta another
leader. But no, 4t was again unani-
mous that Billy should be leader.
I thought over the matter for a few
days, then decided that this was a
splendid opportunity to put 'Scouting'
to test. I had a long talk with BillY
and soon got his confidence and de-
cided for myself that after all there is
some good In the worst of boys.
During the past two years Billy has
made, good as leader with the Cuba
and has developed' lute n fine type ot
boy, thoroughly trustworthy and de-
pendable. The Principal of the Schoot
assures me that Scouting has worked
a wonderful change in this lad and
has been the means of changing an
Incorrigible boy Into a leader in which
any organization might feel Justly
proud.

John, .e city boy, came to a Scout

where he had been reprimanded for a
minor crime and. theft. In Camp he•

Motorist, How Soon Can
You Stop?
The suggestion is made that motor-
ists should test for themselves their
ability to make a quick stop in case
of emergency. It is perdicted that
most ot them will be surprised.
Running at 16 miles an hour, a car
travels at 22 feet a second. At 20
miles, It is 20 feet four inches. At 25
miles. it is 86 feet 7 inches:
A "perfect stop" on dry pavement,
from a 15 -mile speed, covers 26 to 80
feet. , At 20 miles, 40 to 50 feet, at 26,
60 to 75 feet. On wet pavements, this
distance may doubled.
The motorist owes It to himself to
assure himself continually that his
brakes are in proper condition.
