t benefit dance i for bdt scouts 5 !- LOCAL TROOPS COMBINE IN r GIVING BALL AT CONVENTION HALL AUGUST 16TH. fi The annual August Boy' Scout 6 benefit dance will occur at Convens tion Hall, Tuesday evening, August i 16th. Tickets, 25 cents. Any scout will sell you a ticket. Do not neglect • to buy one or more. This is a very • important affair to the scouts for it f is one of very few of the oppoftuni- - ties they have for securing the monf ey for necessary expenses including j > the annual camp without which scouting would lose mucn of its savor ■ and scoutmasters a valuable chance 1 for giving practical instruction in 1 many of the lessons and" tenets of scouting. It may not be- known to many oi , our readers that the Cape May , Scout organization is the strongest ' i in Cape. May County and one of the j i .strongest in South Jersey. It is 1 1 governed by a Scout Council compos- | l Fd of ten prominent citizens and a I commissioner who is the .active exec- < .| utive head. The latter office is held < Mr. Alan Ewing; who was a scout | i master for several years and whose ] t bf scouting is most com- ' prehenslve Few men are better in. ' t formed in all the principles and [ t practices of this greatest of boy or- s ganizations. ' 1 t There are three troops under the r of scoutmasters as follows: t Troop 1, Leon Eldredge. t

" Troop 2, Albert Smith. ^ Tioop 3, William GibsonThe scout council is composed of "• Harry Balm, S. F .Eldredge, A. W. Hand, Dr. V. M. D. Marcy, Frank Meffay, T. W. Rebves, L. Rodes, e Sherman Sharp, Charles A. Swain, " George M. Wentzell, all contributing ' members. Everybody should aid at l" the benefit as a mutter of civic pricie - incidentally and as a matter aiding a s movement of incalcuble value to the " boys composing the organization. f It may be interesting to the pub- ' lie and, to friends of boys in pnrticu-, • lar to know that there are applica- [ tions for membership from a suffici- ' ent number of boys to form a fourth . troop, but tlie means for financing it are not yet available- Scoutmas. • ters are going to be needed and j 1 there should be some volunteers. ■ There are few more interesting ac- > tivities than scouting. | '
