COVER
Even if it wasn't the beginning of spring, our cover boy would
make you feel glad just to be alive. We have a suspicion that
inventors of jet propulsion devices got their original ideas
from watching boys like this. Undoubtedly 300,000 Den Mothers
will heave sighs of relief that the lack of uniform indicates
this bundle of energy is not on the way to a den meeting. He
does arouse a feeling of satisfaction that boys are our business
in Scouting. But, honestly, isn't it a shame to waste so much
youth on children?
