terest in activities themselves. Appeal-
ing to these boys as well as others, on
the basis of a personal interest meets
the individuals' needs for membership
and achievement in a group. Thus, a
specialty post becomes a welcome ad-
junct to a high school's extracur-
ricular program.
Whatever their individual motiva-
tion, Post 205 Explorers have the
privilege of associating with men who
are leaders in the business and civic
life of the Chicago area. Conversely,
these men have the privilege of asso-
ciating with tomorrow's businessmen
and leaders. Both groups can learn
much from each other.
Note that the sponsor of this spe-
cialty post was attracted on the same
basis as the boys were—the adult
group's special field of interest.
This particular field, investment, is
broad with many vocational facets.
This is true of many specialties. What
happens if some Explorers lose in-
terest in the investment subject? The
same that happens when other Ex-
plorers lose interest in camping, other
outdoor activities, or any subject
that receives major emphasis in any
post. The boys will seek membership
in a post with a different specialty or
in a post that does not specialize, or
they may drop out entirely. Mean-
while, the remaining members and
leaders of Post 205 will recruit new
boys who are interested in exploring
investment and finance. It's the same
in any post with or without a special-
ty. Solid sponsorship and sound
leadership create a program that holds
Explorers' interest.
The benefits the young men event-
ually take with them from Post 205
will be broader than a knowledge of
investments. Although this knowledge
in itself will be broader than that
possessed by the average young fellow
and can prove extremely valuable in
the development of a career, all this
is secondary.
The full benefit of membership in
Post 205, or any post, depends on
how well the Advisor uses the Ex-
plorers' special interest to:
• Instill Exploring ideals expressed
in The Explorer Code, in their atti-
tudes, in their character.
• Create confidence in representative
democracy by helping them apply its
methods to their own affairs.
• Provide them with balanced activi-
ties that offer vocational, service,
citizenship, personal fitness, social,
and outdoor experiences.
The activities in any Explorer post,
with or without a special interest
field, are to help interest Explorers in
becoming men of character and intel-
ligent citizens.
