THE BOY SCOUTS

The Boy Scouts who were in camp on the lflxhibltion

grounds during Exhibition week broke cami! ye5\€|`<laY and returned to their respective homes. It is worth noting here, both as a tribute to the boys and to the Exhibition

management, that before their departure the company was presented with a cheque for $25. It was a tribute to the boys because it recognised their good conduct during their stay, and to the Exhibition management because they recogiilsed the principles for which the Boy Scouts move- ment stands. In addition to this generous recognition a cordial invitation was extended to them by the President of the Exhibition Association, Mr Frank R. Heartz, to attend the ncxt Exlibltion in a body, und a larger body if possible. Needless to say, the invitation was gratefully accepted and the Boy Scouts will in all probability form one of the attractions ol’ future Exhibitions. There were 68 Boy Scouts in all, 10 from Cardigan, eight from Summer- side, seven from Harrington and Brackley Point, two from Kinross and the remainder from Charlottetown. During tlielr stay in camp they were instructed in Scout work, such us signalling, knot-tying, first aid, etc. Nine of the Cardigan boys. it may be noted, passed the first test as Scouts and took the Scout's Proinise.

The Boy Scout movement, while by no means new, is

perhaps not as well known in Prince Edward Island as lt ought to be, but it is felt that a great impetus has been given to it by the eiicanipnient this year during Exliibition week and it is expected that as at result there will be a niarked uddtion to the ranks in the near future. We sincerely trust that this expectation will be fully realised. No other means at present in sight can do more for the nation as a whole than this movement, for the raising of the standard of manliness among boys-for that alone~is its aim. The boys of to-daywill be-t»he'electors; thelegislators' and the lawmakers at very few years hence, and on the training they receive now the future or"the nation-will depend. ,

The cliuractcr of the Boy Scouts movement will befbest

understood by a, glance at the “promise” exacted of each boy as he becomes u member: "I promise on my honour, first, to be loyal to God and to the King; second, to ti'y and do a good turn daily to other people, and, third, to obey the Scout law." He is accepted by the Scoutmaster, who says: “l trust you, on your honour, to keep this promise. You are now one of the great brotherhood of Scouts.”

Al me Veil,2113-°1@liL_l1ojList_p1a.ced~iipon-li-is-lionour,~

U10 SU`0HEest sentiment in the heart of a. healthy boy. His ’“”’\li"l‘SS is Hfllloaleti to, and properly approached, a boy's iminliiiess seldom fails. He is treated as a man, and the result almost invariably is that he acts as a man. This is one of the great lessons taught by the Boy Scouts movement to both parents and teachers. The Boy Scouts in Great Britain are at present regarded as about as neces- sary il Dart ot’ the war as are the regular soldiers.

ln addition to the general training in manliness, llie

boys are specially trained in such mi1ttei‘s as are to bc found useful in military service. They are systematically drilled and fitted physically by regular drill, taught the value of discipline and obedience and taught also to look alter themselves physically and mentally. It has beg" deinonstrateil already in the history of this movement that Boy Scouts make the best soldiers. as many of those who began as scouts are now fighting the Empire’s battles in

THE JUDGE FOR KlNG’S

Mr A. I.. Fraser, ex-M.P., Souris. has been appointed

successor to Mr Hlanclmrd as County Court Judge for King’s. The announcement wus made excliislvely by the Guardian yesterday, and came as u blow to the Patriot, which the previous day had been hinting that the Borden Government would do as the Laureir Government had done. hold up the appointment until any chance of it re- count in King's County was rendered impossible. But the ways of the Borden Government are as different from those of the Laurier Government as night is from day, There lg no " dark lantern brigade" in the Borden administration; There is no inclination or desire to obtain party advan- tage by crooked means; there is no wish to avoid the consequence of a recount, should such be asked for by delay lil the Hllpolntment of the judge whose duty it would be to act. `

The Patriot cannot understand this way of running g

government: it is so different from all the devious ways f0"0W@d by its friends when in power. that it leaves the poor Patriot in breathless astonishment.

BY"h°‘W“Y- Whyl did not the Patriot reproduce the

Chronlcle's article on subsidies and Confederation claims’

An" me G|0b€- in Ilot the Chronicle the principal ex- ponent of Liberal policy in Canada? `

____0________ LEST THEY FURGET `

--_-.lm V -

,the discussion of a lost political leeuo, it was that given

if ever n lame excuse was advanced for avoidance of

'the election lt hae served up political articles, original or

rehashed from mainland journals, and yet when challenged on the attitude it adopted on the subsidy and -carferry

.questions, it excuses itself by stating that “the great

majority of the people, and especially the merchants. are desirous of having the subject dropped for the time being."

Yet a little farther down its columns lt undertakes to

discuss the political situation, off ite own--or is it some

iother body's?-bat and to lnslnuate that Premier Mathieson

would likely be the successor of Mr A. L. Fraser as Con- servative Candldate for King's County. lt makes believe that it has good authority for stating that Mr Mathieson will be “offered the nomiuatlon," and then proceeds to discuss the changes such a nomination would effect in the local Government. This is all so much moonshlne cr kiteflying. Nobody knows better than the Patriot that this is done merely for the purpose of drawing a herring accross the trail, and to endeavour to give some much- needed consolation to its supporters for the unexpected disappointment the election brought them. The Patriot boldly proclaimed with a reiteratlon that became tire- some that " the Mathleson Government le doomed." The election has come and gone, and as we predicted, the Mathieson Government, is still doing business at the old stand. Many of the Patrlot’s 'supporters are naturally indignant that they should have been thus befooled. They took the Patriot at its word, and threw their lot in with the Opposiion in the fond hope that they would he “ in " with the crowd. Their crowd is “out," they are “out " with the Government, and are new denouncing the Patriot for misleading and befooling them. The Patriot knows this, none better, and so it would like to bring comfort to such distressed souls by holding out vain hopes about probable changes ii the constitution of the Government which might bring about by-elections and further chance ot victory.

The Patriot need not worry about any such controversy.

The Government. contrary to its prediction, is safely seated in office, and there it will remain. Any by-election that may occur will probably be ln default of the Opposi- tion. The electors will not accept the Patriot's advice a second time, and will see that in such an event a supporter of the Government is returned.

The Patriot wishes the electors to forget its lying

prophecy, and naturally resents being reminded of it. But when the Patriot elects a second time to assume the "I9-“U9 01' the Drophet and to predict the successor of Mr Fraser as candidate for Kiligs, it is just as well to keep its past reputation before us.

CONGRATULATIUN S

We congratulate Mr Austin L. Fraser on his appointment

to the County Court judgeship of King's County. An experi- eneetl lawyer ln the enjoyment of a large practice and having the confidence and esteem of his fellow-citizens in Souris and throughout the county. his appointment will meet with general approval. Mr Fraser had been nomi- naled the Liberal-Conservative candidate for King‘s County at the last Convention in Georgetown and there was every prospect of his return at the next election. A keen controversialist, he was fair and honourable to his opponents in platform discussions, and having a keen ?@FS.°,9_f i1_\!I\_1f?l!1i..\y.aanbl,e_.to, lighten un debates in 11 Hlallner- which mode lilm popular with most audiences he addressed. A sound and painstaking lawyer, he is eminently fitted to discharge the duties of a county court judge.

Born at Vernon River, he was educated in the district

school and Prince of Wales College, and after teaching school for some ten years began the study of law under Mr (now Premier) J. A. Mathiesoii at Georgetown, and later under the late lion. Arthur Peters in Charlottetown. l-le was admitted to the bar in 1900 and practised his pro- fession in Sourls. He entered the poltical arena in 1904, when, he was elected to the Provincial Legislature. In 1908 he was elected to represent Klng's County in the House of Commons. In 1911 he_vLi1vs_i_detlea_tyetiYvby Mr ifT3`.‘l‘l`ligliéiT'ilTé presentrepresenlative. Iiis appointment to the County Court judgsliip was gazetted on Tliursday last, and he will enter npoii his new duties us soon as the necessary official arrangements can be made.

NOTES

Of the result of one of the Zeppelin raids in London an

American who wus there says:--“London went to bed that night with hot wrath, but not in tear. The next day. Hi recruiting stations which had been empty the <18-li bef0"° there were long lines of men waiting, eager to J0iI1 the army."

A letter received from a Canadian officer in France and

shown to 'the London Advertiser states that one of the Canadian Generals has made a wager of $5,000 that the war will be ended by October 29 of the present yenr. Most people who heard of the offer consider it as indicat- ing that 'the General had plenty of money and liked to play the 100 to 1 shots.
