recruit makes when he is bel cepted into the great brotherh: of Boy Scouts. It is, indeed, a great pro- mise for any person to make, and the recruit must realize the importance of ft. That alone is not enough; he must carry out that promise with the 'same sincerity in which he made it, As one of our great statesmen once sald: "My honor is my life, you can take my life but not my honor." So a. Scout, should look upon his honor in the same way. To do his duty to God does not neces: sarily mean that he attend church at every sorvice or go around with a long ead face as if he is afraid of the things in the world around him, In my view it means that he belongs to a religious faith which he believes in and that he is interested enough in the same to do the every-day church work, and enjoy the life of one who has his trust in God. 3 To do his duty to the King is a pl sure which any boy, no matter how young, likes to do. One will often see a group of small boys lined up play- ing soldiérs, perhaps one will have a flag which he is proudly waving. These boys are inwardly longing for the time when they will grow up to wear the King's uniform. But soldiering is not the only way in which one may do his duty to the King. For instance, dur- ing the war, Boy Scouts in every part of the Enipire sold tags, poppies, etc. in aid of the Red Cress. In lands where fighting was in activity they acted as messengers. lookouts and hospital attendants, and did many other tasks which they were able to perform through Scout experience. A Beout should respect his country's flag, he should never allow it to be insult ed, flown upside down or in any way misused, He should always be proud, no matter what part of the world he is in, to point te it and say "That is the flag 1 live under." -- Scouting [8 not meant to make sol- diers out of boys, but to make them men enough to do their duty to their country when time comes. One of the most beautiful things a Scout can do is to help other people. He is always} 'willing to give up his own time and pleasure and at the same time i155: drudge, and thinks that some of them are useless or foolish, he will find it no pleasure at all being a Scout.

A special and restricted diet is the best cure, and it should be worked at under the guidance of your physician. 1 don't think radium treatment ad- visable in this case. Bed-wetting in a healthy child is due largely to nervousmess. It can be controlled by regular habits, the avoidance of lying on the back, re- stricting the amount of fluid taken during the afternoon and evening. In some cases it is a habit, but if it does not stop soon, the boy should go under the care of the family physician. Have You Found It So?

Another spectator, who does not know the --number, calls on the phone a friend of the performer, described ag a great mind reader. The "great mind reader" tells the ~aumber upon which the performer is concentrating. The performer does not men- tion thé name of the mind reader ontil the number is decided upon.' This is because the name of the mind reader Is the code word which tells the confederate what number has been sslected. Two serfes of code lelters must be re- membered by the performer. The confederatéd can refer to a written 1st.
