When Troop . 2 entertained the
parents of the scouts in the troop
they concluded the afternoon enter-
tainment by permitting their par-
ents to see a very interesting Inves-
titure ceremony which was followed
by an initiation ceremony such as
only a boy can devise. The parents
were greatly amused at the experi-
ences their sons went through tn
being initiated into the scout troop
and when they had undergone all
the ordeals to which they were sub-
jected a parent was heard to say
that his son's Initiation Into scout
troop was certainly strenuous and
drastic enough to make the boy
want to be a real scout.
And now. Scouts, doot forget that
registration is ln order for the kite-
flying contest.
