ation performed on the little finger

jured some time ago and since then
the finger has been stiff. It is ex
pected to have the hand operated on

up so as to give Mr. Arn the full use
of his hand, as it has been somewhat
of a handicap to him in his work.

WHAT THE CLOCK TAUGHT ME
P
.78
There's a clock on my desk
sentinel bold
Ever doing its work, like a serf
of old;
Or sounding alarm, as a clarion
horn,
It rout3 me from slumber at
early morn.
arms move or.
Its outstretched
apace
Around its honest, Jovial face
A face seraphic, that In courtesy
greets
With welcome smile each one
it meets.
It k?eps plodding along midst
cold or heat.
Braving wintry blasts, or snow,
or sleet;
Its form can boast no classic
beauty,
But glows in pride with work
or duty.
With a cheery "tick - tock"
throughout the day
It drives threatening gloom and
dull care away;
It wake3 sagging spirits anew
into life
To "carry on" bravely the grim
daily strife.
Thus even a block may take
some part
In bringing comfort to a heart
Crown weary In battling fate's
decree.
If only the viewpoint we could
see.
A potential sermon, its policy
taught
To practice the tenets its preach
ments taught.
So I cherish the lesson the clock
may bring
To the soul of a commoner,
prince, or king. "K"
Plattsmouth Rotary club had as its
guest speaker, II. B. Dawson, Scout
executive of the Cornhusker area,
comprising fifty-five Nebraska coun
ties. Mr. Dawson drove here for the
lunchecn and an inspection of the
new Scout cabin and swimming hole
at Camp Wheeler. He was accom
panied by the Lincoln Scout camp in
spector, Fred Sanders, and from here
they drove home by way of Cedar
Creek for an inspection of Camp
Quivera, maintained by the Lincoln
Scout organization.
Following announcements of inter
est by President Duxbury, conduct of
the meetine- was tiirnfl nvor t
H. Wescott, chairman of the Boys'
Work -onmiittee of the club, who in
troduced Executive Dawson.
Mr. Dawscn paid a nice compli
ment to the facilities that are being
completed here for handling the en
larged Scouting program that will
embrace all boys of the community
as soon as additional troops can be
organized. Mr. Dawson had been in
Plattsmouth Monday night, attending
the meeting of the one troop now in
existence here and also meeting with
a prospective sponsoring organization
to cutline plans of procedure incident
to the organizing cf a second troop.
He stated that witli Plattsmouth's
population, there should be an aver
age of 37 boys each year becoming of
Scouting- age and as the program is
designed to cover a period of at least
four years in the life of a boy, the
potential Scout ; membership of the
community would be around 150 boys
or a total of live troops when orga
nized to full strength.
He did not aflvocaie that any or
ganization start its troop in a big
way, but rather, start with eight or
ten boys, following with a natural
1 ...a. .1.1 1 X..
the number up to four patrols or 32
boys to the troop. The American Le
gion sponsored troop has been up to
quota for a lonff time :and at present
there are a goodly number of appli
cants among the boys of the commun
ity for membership that can only be
met thru the organizing of addition
al troops.
He urged 1 his listeners to view
ccuting not as an organization, but
as a program one that has been de
veloped by the leading boys' work ex
perts of the nation.
With Scouting now :n Its twenty-
fifth year of existence, he said it Is
no longer necessary to sell the plan
to the public as a worth-while pro
ject, but more to arouse organizations
to a realization of their responsibili
ties as sponsors and backers of troops, js
so that mushroom growth will not
spring up and later die down as in
dividual leaders ccme and go. For
that reason, the Scout executives are
demanding active support and troop Radishes, 3 bunches for.
ganizations, standing behind the in-lm Asparagus, per bunch. . .
keep the program advancing when a
vacancy occurs In the latter class of
workers.
Mr. Dawson pointed out that the
cost of maintaining Scouting here,
fixed on a per-capita basis will be
no more with several troops organiz
ed than with merely one or two. He
urged fellow Rotarians to take an
active part in the raising of the
Scout budget, although they them
selves might not sponsor a troop, and
thus make the program available to
such other organizations of the com
munity as are in close contact with
boys and would be willing to assume
the duties of leadership, providing of
a meeting place for their respective
troops, etc.
At the conclusion of his address,
President Duxbury requested that the
matter be further laid before a meet
ing of the directors of the Rotary
club next Tuesday evening and stat
ed that the Rotarians, who already
have contributed materially to erec
tion of the Scout cabin stand ready to
do their part in furthering the drive
for funds to meet the administrative
cost of Scouting and incidental ex
pense in connection with maintaining
the new Scout camp on Rock Creek.
This meeting of the directors will be
attended by E. H. Wescott, long ac
tive in Scouting here, and the chair
man of the Legion troop committee.
