Old Timer
Dillon Wallace of Labrador
fame was cooking a chicken in the
manner described by Dan Beard in
his article in May BO\ S LIFE. It
was just an easy way to do a perfect job.
After a while Wallace completed the
fine job of roasting.
Those who were fortunate enough
to get a portion, knew it tasted finer
than any chicken we had ever eaten.
Against that blustering wet night
with the snow and rain; that open faced
lean-to had a real personality. This was
at the Winter Camping Training
Course at Schiff Reservation.
There also were Shorey and Wessel
and other Old Timers. Shorey brought
the Adirondacks close to the camp fire.
The shadowy False Faces of Iroquois
tradition sat with us under Shorey's
telling. McDonald, engaged in his many
duties as Camp Director, sat in for a
while.
Camping is only a means to an end,
not the end. Real camps are pleasure—
not trouble. You go on from camps to
real adventure. Adventure is the thing
—the camp merely the necessary point
to work out from. Old Timer once be-
longed to a group of old timers. Once
arrived at a camp they were all "set"
and eating in less than thirty minutes.
Wood, water, shelter and cooked food
were all taken care of in less than half
an hour.
The Scouts who get to the Jamboree
should have passed beyond the novelty
of just getting a camp to work. They
should go on from there. Adventure
will lie thickly around them.
How to Get Money for
Your Lucky Scout or Scouts
"Earning Money," the leading edi-
torial in April BOYS' LIFE, is a stock
taking job of "How." We aren't licked
until we admit it. Getting to Wash-
ington isn't such a hard job if a Scout
can qualify. If he gives up a few movies,
a few extra sodas, watches his outgo
and saves a little regularly, it won't be
difficult to get some of his quota. a
little work or some money-making stunt
will add to his bank account.
"Save for some worthy object, main-
tain a bank account, spend carefully for
worth while things. Earning money and
thrift build character in a very positive
way, I shall be glad to send any boy
who writes me, a pamphlet that will
help him to begin to do both," so writes
Dr. West. Tell your Scouts about this
offer.
The Chief Scout Executive knows.
With a difficult start he has built a real
life. It would be helpful to read this
short, pungent editorial to the Troop.
It might lift your Troop budget over
the top.
