It is felt that at this time it is more desirable than ever for everyone intere sted in .boys to encourage more participation in the Scout piogram. We have the best boys in the world in our Stake. We now have a registered troop in each ward. However, we have some boys who, as yet, are not registered and some boys who are registered, but who are not advancing in their troops. Scouting is a natural boy's pro gram, but like any program, it requires working. The Scoutmasters aie more than willing to give their time but they do need te parents' support. Don't be afraid to give your boy leaders a boost once in a wile. It is felt that the older boys, those 15 and 16 years of age, snould receive special consideration, The District Committee has adopted as its slogan for the coming year "A Senior Scout Unit in each Ward." The Council Field Representative, Floyd Loveridge, waes in at tendance at the meeting. He gave the Scouters present some valuable tips on such topics as Troop organ ization, ways of handling different age groups in a troop, games, etc, that could be used in teaching Scouter Loeridge also Scouting. outlined a leadership training program whicn the District hopes to put into effect in the near future. In connection with the meeting the regular monthly court of rev iew was held in carge of Advancement Chairman Harry Beagley. Don Andrews of Troop 132 came up for advancement in his Merit badge work. It is hoped that boys will remember the. first Wednesday of each month and work for ad vancement, Te Mona troop deserves special praise. It takes extra effort in these days to come that distance to a meeting. Mona was repres ented by two Scouters- The meeting was in charge of District Chairman Ed. V. Downs. Tnose present were Floyd Lover idge of Provo; Bishop Ellertson and Scoutmaster Orgill of Mona, Committeeman Albert E. Sells and Scoutmaster John V.

Drive officers attribute the failure almost entirely to the fact that the state wide campaign happened to conw at a time when East Juab residents were being solicited for at least four other worthy causes. There is also a possibility that some citizens formed erroneous opinions before the qualified solicitors visited thorn. For instance, one story to the effect that some of the funds received in the drive would be used to better conditions for German and Jap prisoners in this country got wide publicity. The truth was that War Prisoners Aid refers to aid for our boys through the Red Cross or some other reliable agency. Citizens are urged to be sure they fully understand the purposes of the drive and when they do, Nephi will not let this worthy cause down. District chairmen and block workers are urged to continue with the drive and to many homes where they feel a larger contribution would be made if the cause is fully understood and there are no other concurrent solicitations. re-vis- it Our boys did not stop in Italy when they got to Salerno. Our United War Fund workers must not stop at the half-wa- y mark in this necessary campaign. Norma Garrett is Treasurer of the County War Fund Committee, and she will be glad to accept any contributions at The Commercial Bank, Let's report a full quota by next waek's paper.
