Importance Of
Scouting Stressed
By Banquet Speaker
The importance of Scouting, of
IMirents working with their boys
who are either Cub or Boy Scouts,
was stressed by J. C. Underwood.
East Texas Area Council Execu-
tive, Boy Scouts, Tyler. Mr Un-
derwood was the principal speak-
, i at tin Cub Scouts' Blue and
Gold Banquet held Monday night
in the elementary school cafeteria,
r h is banquet celebrated the
fortieth anniversary of Scouting.
Also in his talk, Mr Under-
wood explained the mechanic* of
Cubbing: how the organization
functions, explaining that in each
group or den. there should not be
more than eight hoys. Each den is
,i den mother with
either a den chief or assistant den
mother as the second in command.
Several dens form a pack which is
presided over by a pack master.
Mr. Underwood called the l'ub
bing program a "program for par-
ents" and fnade his statement
clear by emphasizing the fact that
only the parents, not even the den
mothers, may sign a Cub’s book
for advancement.
Dr. David Morrison, master of
Pack 190. was master of ceremon-
ies. The program opened with a
sing song and fun directed by
Glen Marrs, the invocation fol-
lowed by J. B Poston. After din-
ner had been served recognition
of Den mothers and officers was
made. Presentation of awards
then followed
Among those recognized for
their outstanding work in Cub-
bing were Mr and Mrs. 1. D.
Modlsette of Greggton and Floyd
Johnson. Mr Johnson has been a
Scout master for 15 years. Mrs.
Modlsette is the only woman in
East Texas to receive the coveted
Scout award.
A three-day training program
for Cubbing will begin Saturday,
March 4 at I p. m. in the art room
<>t Elementary School. This pro-
gram is for all Den mothers, par-
ents and coirimitteemen. It will be
conducted by Mrs. Modlsette.
Decorations were in blue and
gold, the color scheme being used 1
on the banquet tables and for the j
birthdu' cake which was made in
Den 3 and served as the largest |
decorative piece in the banquet
hall. It was white with blue trim
and gold candles. Flowers used
vere uaffodlls. jonquils and Iris.
Build Your Garden

Horizon Club Girls
Give Brotherhood
Program At School
Horizon Club Girl*, senior di-
vision of Camp Fire, gave a broth-
erhood program Monday after-
noon at 1:11 in general assembly
for the junior and senior high
school student*. This program was
in keeping with Brotherhood
Week which closed February 25.
The Horizon Club Girls urranged
and introduced the program.
A 15 minute talk on "Brother-
hood" was made by Rev. L. Eu-
gene Harris, First Methodist
Church pastor. He was introduced
by Betty Jo White
General introduction of the pro-
gram was by Betty Jane Simmons
with the last part of it, showing of
two motion pictures, being an-
nounced by Naacy H— rroll. The
pictures were "Don't Hi* A Suck-
er" and "The House I Live In.”
Stressed throughout the pro-
gram was the Camp Fire Girls’
credo of no demarkation line be-
tween creeds, groups and religions
either in Camp I* ire or in other
organizations and the whole of
living.
The program given here was
also presented at the Bine Tree
high school . with Rev. Leon
Mathis, pastor of the First Metho-
dist Church at Pine Tree giving
the address.
Attending both programs was
Miss Mercedes Smith of Long-
