Fund of the Boy Scouts of America,
told the members ..of the Rotary
;iub of Freeport at. ..their weekly
Supper Thursday night in the Elks
clubhouse.
It was Boy Scout night, and each
of the Freeport troops were rep-resented
by a committeeman, the

said there were Boy Scouts
in 72 coutries prior to 1939. He
added that the vitality of scouting
was terrific and explained some of
the tasks performed by the mem-bers
despite the fact they had' to
keep their activities secret. -Citing
Holland as an example, he satri
before the war there were 20,000.
The number had increased to 115-
000 when hostilities ceased and is
steadily increasing.
Mussolini abolished scouting hi
Italy in 1929, but it prospered Just
the same. Meeting.?, Mr. Patterson
said, were conducted in the Cata-combs
where the early Christians
had worshiped in secret hundred;

groups exist. Because it is impos-sible
to procure .cloth with which
to make uniforms, Mr. Patton ex-hibited
emblems on-buttbn& which
are being sent to contries where
this condition exists, as a means
of identification for Boy Scouts.
