From Wednesday's Daily
Boy Scout week, nationally observ
ed and marking the 17th anniversary
of the chartering of the Boy Scouts
of America, was observed here last
nirrht at the annual scout banquet
which this year was held at the First
Christian church and was enjoyable
and inspirational to all of those in
attendance whether they were scouts
of tenderfoot year or more grizzeled
rcouls in the battle of life.
The church was arranged with the
national colors of rei!, white and
blue and the American flag, one of
the Scout emblems of service, was
evidenced in the large flags display
ed on the walls and in the tiny flags
used as the favors of the event.
The banquet itself was. one of the
most pleasant that the scouts have
held and the ladies of tlie Christian
church preparing and serving the
banquet deserve a world of praise
for their delightful and tastily serv
ed repast. The success of this pub
lic banquet that the ladies served
. j was one that leads to the wish that
, 'they might be called upon for many

bers of the two troops vived. with

guests of the evening, E. II. Wescott,'
chairman cf the scout committee com
ing in for his share, of the greeting
for his work for the scouts.
Mr. Pollock in his opening stated
that scouting was more than merely
a good time for the boys, that it re
quired time and training to perfect
the scout and from the principle?
and teachings of the scouts was de
rived a real citizenship. , That the
scouts were real assets to the com
munity, and to the speaker it was a
regret that there were no scouts in
his boyhood days that he might have
had a part in their work.
Floyd Flack, scoutmaster of
Plattsmouth was the first speaker and
made a short and pleasing address,
thanking the ladies for their work
in arranging the banquet and E. H.

J. A. Capwell. one of the scout
masters stated that he liked and en-
joyed the Boy Scout work, that ho
enjoyed the association with the boyp'
in their organization and was proud
of the high type of splendid young
lads that the scouts of Plattsmouth
numbered. Scouting taught service
in the aid of others, it gave the boys
a touch of experience in becoming
self reliant and aided In the develop
ment of strength of character. The
scout work had inspired him and it
was more than pleasing to have had
a part in the . work of the Platts
mouth scouts.
Hoy Perkins, scoutmaster of troop
No. 3, gave a brief response to the
greeting extended to him by the
large and enthusiastic . audience but
as the time was growing short made
his remarks brief.
R. E. Bailey, superintendent of
the city schools, stated that he had
not been so familiar with the Scout
iwork before coming here but found
that he was here somewhat of a step
daddy to the scout movement, as the
activities were largely involved with

As Ex-Governor Samugl R. McKel

very enthusiastic greeting and be
fore commencing his address stated
that he had been delegated as the
regional scout executive to present
to one of the Plattsmouth scouts the
highest honor that the scout can re
ceive that of Eagle Scout, and call
ing Joe Buttery, one of the splendid
members of the Plattsmouth scouts to
the speakers table Mr. McKelvie de
corated him with the badge of his
service and expressed the wish that
as a loyal and earnest scout he would
make a splendid citizen. Mr. Buttery
is the second Plattsmouth boy to win
the coveted honor, Edward Patter
son also having this distinction.
Mr. McKelvie stated in his remarkr
that the men were but boys grown
up and that the present day train
ing such as scouting was giving the
boys of today a chance to take a
longer and steadier step forward than
their fathers the boys of yesteday
and which was the wish of every
father. '
The speaker called the attention of
the audience to the fact that the in
mates of the state penitentiary and
reformatory were largely below the
age of 25 years, men mentally keen
largely, but who had slipped because
they had not caught the vision of
the -training such as the Boy Scout
received and which, fitted him to be a
better citizen by clean living and'
