Did you read the article ite tlee, February issue of Good Housekeeping; "Shell We Teach Religion in School?" The article was extensively reviewed in a later issue of the Literary Digest., 14'he gist of the article Was that school children are Oone to petty dishoneri- ties, not only in school work but mit- side of school. In the tests made, groups of Boy Scouts showed the high- est scores for .honesty. Tellr your troop "about this: Tell them about the "Campaign. for Honor and Honesty" just no* being tried out in a nuinber. of big High Schools. This campaign is the result of a long petiod of experimenting to dis- cover -the best methods of moral train- ing :for ehigh, school students, It IS directed against cheating in school ,wark, etealing, cutting classes,. and playing truant. A. long tabulation of reasons for strch immoralities is given. "Fear" is a large,factor inethe reasons for; heating.. Envy, idleness and too little thought abput being honorable are inentioneee Here comes in Scout Laws 8, 9 and),. Cutting glasses and truancy are put down to laziness, care- / ss moral sfandarde, temptation to ave a good ,time, Scout Laws 2, 7 and 8 come into play here.• This iS a good topic for troop meet- ing. Straight, frank, .back and forth' talk with the troop. What about petty dishonesties in school and out? Per-. sonal honesty is fundamental to good character and to good citizenship- - and to goad Scouting. If public school authorities are concerned about the extent of dishenesty among school pupils, now is the time for the Boy Scout Code of Conduct to prove itself, and perhaps obtain recognition throughout the public school world as the answer to the problem, "What is the best method of moral training for high school students?"

There are of course some interesting stories about .his kingly childhood; in the Argonaut we find this one: One day in the courtyard of the pal- ace the young 'king was playing his favorite game of stildier with the small soli of the Collet of Casa Valencia, who was his most intimate compani- on.

But few living beyond the bordere of the Black Country of England know that there Is a Singing Cave in the groundof Dudley Castle. The cave does not snag, any more than the' fa mous gilded gallery whiepers; but by some accident in its eonetruction, the sounds of voices ring round its cal,- ernoue walls and become poseessed of each sweetness and power as to make the cave a place of enchantment.

Recently, in speaking for h.erself and children, Mrs. Kaake said: "For more than a year our three little ones —John, age 6; Elwyn, 4; and i\ rgar- ite, 2,—had been so peaked and life- less that we were seriously worried about them. Their stomachs were up- set, appetites poor, the color had left their cheeks, their nights were rest- less, and during the .day they would jut mope around,taking no interest in play or, anything else. . "They began to eat and sleep better almost from the first dose of Tanlac, and have picked up now until you couldn't' find three healthier or more active children In all Detroit. • They eat ravenoasly, the color -of health has returned to their cheeks, and they just want to be on the go all the time. I have also taken Tanlac to build me up, and it never seems to 2 ail." "As to my personal experience with Tanlac," said Mr. Kaake, "I simply can't express in words the 'great help it gave me. About a year ago I was a victim of boils,.actually having fifty- one on nae, and was so played out that I couldn't do a bit of work for weeks. My suffering was almost unbearable. I cared little for food, suffered with severe headaches and stomach pains, and got so weak and nervous that I felt discouraged. "Tanlac corrected my stomach disorder% woke up my appetite, cleansed my blood and toned up my system so that the boils went away, and nothing of the kind has bothered me since. I have gained 28 lbs,, and I eat, sleep and feel like a brand-new man. We have given Tanlac a fair trial and found it wonderful, and if anyone doubts our statement they can write personally. We wouldn't think of being without Tanlac." Tanlac is for sale by all good drug- gists. Accept no, substitute: Over 40 Million bottles sold.
