A STRETCHER OF POLES AND COATS
Early in the Scout Trtming Comet
"First Aid" Information.
Some have expressed an adverso j
opinion us to the boys scout movement
on the ground that there is too much
fun connected with the oignuizution
which would Interfere with the boy's
regular duties. This opiniou undoubt
edly grows out of a very much
mistaken idea of the real work of
the scouts. There are few men who
can measure up to the requirement
of a first class scout. We are informed
that there is only one in thin state.
Just to show what it means to be a
scout we give the requirements of the
different dogrecs of scoutoraft
There nre three classes of scouts
among the boy scouts of America, the
tenderfoot, second-class scout and
first-class scout. A tenderfoot is su
perior to the ordinary boy because of
his training. To be a tenderfoot means
to occupy the lowest grade iu scouting.
A tenderfoot on meeting certain re
quirements may become a second-class
scout, and a secoud class scout on
meeting another set of requirements
may become a first class scout. The
first-class scout may then qualify for
the various merit badges which are
offered for proficiency iu scouting.
The requirements of the tcuderfoot,
second-class scout and first-class scout
nre as follows:

age and must be at least twelve years
of age and must pirn a test iu the
