Touching briefly on every as- pect of Scouting, Mr. Chevis said, “The idea behind the proficiency badges (seven of which may be earned by each scout) is to help the boys learn a trade”. Know- ledge, acquired through scouting often points the way to a boy's future vocation. To conclude his address, Mr. Chevis quoted the following ex- cerpt found among the papers of the late Baden~Powellz “I believe that God put us in this jolly world to be happy and enjoy life. Happiness doesn’t come from be- ing rich, nor merely from being successful in your career, nor by self-indulgence. One step towards happiness is to make yourself healthy and strong while you are a boy, so that you can be useful and so can enjoy life when you are a man. But the real way to get happi- ness is by giving out happiness to other people. Try and leave this world a little better than you found it and when‘ your turn comes to die, you can die happy in feeling that at any rate you have not wasted your time but have done your best." ,More boys are needed in the lst Jefferson Scout troop and Scoutmaster Chevis would be very glad to hear from at least five or six prospective members.
