Teach Marksmanship
INDOORS
SAFELY! . . .
ACCURATELY!...
,—^THOROUGHLY!..
For rainy day ac-
tivity and indoor
shooting where a
.22 can't be used,
the Johnson Indoor
Target Gun pro-
vides thorough in-
struction with max-
imum safety and
accuracy. Johnson's
safety factor over-
comes all objections
to indoor or outdoor
shooting. The Johnson will not
break a balloon and can be dis-
charged with complete safety into
the instructors hand.
Adjustable rear peep and front
post sights teach the principles of
elevation and windage with fine
target rifle accuracy from 5 to 50
foot ranges. Rubber powered unit
shoots 65 BB-size pellets from
magazine.
Organize your future marksmen
and hunters now for safe, sane
instruction. The Johnson comes
complete with indoor gallery, tar-
gets, re-usable pellets, and Marine
Corps method instructions.

TROOP BUSINESS
(Continued from page 24)
We should make greatest pos-
sible use of charts. The uninspiring
record of Scout J. Smith is incon-
spicuous between the covers of a
book, but unfortunately so is the
exemplary record of some other
boy. Both should be up on the
wall where all can see. The aver-
age boy likes to see where he
stands and how his Patrol is far-
ing. Let's have visual charts on
advancement, the Patrol Contest,
tenure, program plans, and also
one showing which Merit Badges
are given by fathers or members
of the Troop Committee and In-
stitutions. You'might also try put-
ting up First and Second-Class
score cards with the names of the
Troop Examining officer indicated
alongside each requirement.
Adequate records and business-
like methods are invariably the
difference between confidence and
confusion. We can make them our
faithful servants.
SCOUT WEEK DOINGS
FOR EXPLORERS
(Continued from page 26)
Work with the Leaders of your
Sponsoring Institution with your
Troop or Unit Committee in the de-
velopment of a joint program,
wherein the Explorers give demon-
strations of skills and possibly,
show the filmstrip "Exploring."
This would be in order to inform as
many members of the Sponsoring
Institution and parents as possible
concerning Exploring. Urge your
Sponsoring Organization to prepare
a program that will help Explorers
better understand their projects
and purpose.

Their Equipment
(Mark Your Xmas Gifts Now!)
"Be Prepared" implies orderliness, safe-
guarding one's things, protection of prop-
erty. It is one reason so many scouts — so
many people — have acquired the sensible,
economical habit of marking their personal
belongings with
WOVEN NAMES
To prevent losses, to avoid ownership dis-
putes, to identijy, have each member of
your troop mark his clothing, blankets,
linen, tent, sporting and camping equip-
ment with his own name, woven by Cash's.
Cash's Woven Names are readily attached
with a few stitches or with Cash's NO-SO
Cement, on cloth, leather, wood or metal.
Ask for Cash's Names at your department
store or write us.
