Yet, according to Xengphon, it was an established jnstitution in the time of Cyrus, who lixed in thé six- th century before Christ, and if, as it has been suspected, the historian- philosopher of Athens sometimes took a little liberty with dates and places it Jnay be inferred that boy scouts exieted in. the Greece of his the Christian. era. In his "Cyropaedia", which is the life of the great Persian conqueror, Cyrus, Xenophon describes the pro- gramme which down for their youths, and the vir- tues for which these boys were striv- mg twenty-five centuries ago and he manner of their siriving bear an ymazing resemblance to the resolu- .be present day. Xenophon writes: .hey say that they go there for this yurpose, just a= in our country they ays that they go to learn to read ud write. And their officers spend he greater part of the day deciding ates for them. For, as a matter of 'ourse, boys also prefer charges 'gainst one another, just as men do, f theft, robbery, assault; cheating, dander, and other things that na- urally come up; and when they dis- over any one committing any of hese crimes, they punish thim. ° And they punish also any one vhom they find accusing another 'alsely, And they bring one another 10 trial' also charged with an offen- e for which people hate one anoth- r most; but go to law least, namely that of ingratitude; and if they know that ony one is able to return a fa- vor and fails to do so, they punish hint also severely. For they think that the ungrateful are likely to be the most neglectful of their duty to- ward their gods, their parents, their country, and their friends, for it seems that shamelessness goes hand in hand with ingratitude; and it is that, we know, which leads the way | to every moral wrong. | Also, remarks Xenophon, the Per- jeians teach their boys self-control and obedience to their officers among them and self-restraint in eating and drinking. "Besides this they learn to shoot and throw the spear." And, according to Xenophon, Sy- rus, when he was but a boy, be- came an important officer among his own group of boy scouts and was al- lowed to be a sort of judge. "Why do you think that you un- derstand justice?" his mother asked of him. 'Becanse,"' said he, "my teacher appointed me on the ground that I was thoroughly versed in justice, fo decide cases Lor the others also.
