Show THE EOY SCOUTS OF OGDEN. . . The "Eoy Scouts" movement has taken hold in Ogden, for which ' we have to thank those men who are sufficiently interested in boys to go considerably cut of their way to offer guidance and wholesome pleasure. I Rev. F. V. Fisher of the Methodist church started out early this morning with a pcrty of young "scouts." By the way, Rev. Fisher is entering into his duties as a moral force in this community with I that broadness of spirit which promises to be helpful, not only to ( those within his church, but beyond his congregation. Such men do much to make a progressive, clean, harmonious community. The boys are to h-amp to a sequestered nook in Ogden canyon, have their camp fire, cook a camp fire meal and play scout game3. With older heads, interested in their welfare, to direct them, the youngsters can have a day of real enjoyment and yet, out of the play will come the foundation work of character-building. The boys will be taught self-reliance, duty, discipline, kindness great factors in making, first, good boys, and finally men of worth. On Wednesday next there is to be a mass meeting of those interested in-terested in the organization and there are few fathers who should aot attend with their young boys. |
