What to do with boys.
The Boy Scout movement alms to make the average boy more manly, •nergetlc, self-reliant, kinder, more thoughtful for others, and altogether a better boy In every way, and there¬ fore likely to make a better man than he would without the Boy Scout train¬ ing. That is why the movement is ateadily winning its way though mis¬ understanding ridicule and suspicion and ts being generally accepted as a partial answer, at least, to the old question, "What shall we do wilh the boys?"
Perhaps the argument most fre¬ quently heard against the Boy Scout movemenl is that it is militaristic. We do not think the ground for the objection well laken.
Many boys who are not scouts be¬ long to church cadet corps, much more military in their organization and training, and It is not to be sup¬ posed that the cadet movemenl was designed by churchmen to make sol¬ diers. The Idea was rather to Inject Into the boy the effect of discipline, 80 lacking in modern life. Call a cer- taih type, perhaps the average type, of boy, a boy, and you can do little with him, but term him a soldier, and he is like wax In your hands.
However, as a matter of fad, little of the training of the scout is mili¬ tary. First aid, life-saving, tracking, Bignalllng, nature study, woodcraft, courtesy, helpfulness are all useful lessons and savor llllle of militarism. Many a boy may be picked out as a scout in public becaude of hlR manly bearing, his alertness In flnding ways to help oihers, his courtesy to wom¬ en and his tenderness for the very young or very old, or feeble.
In these respects the scout move¬ ment suggests not so much militarism as it does the return to the days of our pioneers, who learned so well how lo play so many parts in turn and to l?e prepared for any and all emer¬ gencies.
The scout training appeals lo prim¬ itive instincts, and makes of a boy a better, kinder, more useful, more lov- abl0 all around human being. Let us help the Boy Scout movemenl all we «anl

Such towns bave, (roip the begin¬ ning, disposed of such lands by grant or lease, by virtue of resolves by town meetings. These towns need no legis¬ lative authority for the purpiae (Kings County Insurance vs. Stevens 101 N. y. 411). In fact, the town existed before the legislature.
The people at town melings may delegate the power lo make leasee of the lands of the town (Furey vs. Town of Gravesend, 104 N. Y. 412).
Therefore any authority which your board has to make leases if lown lands, must be derived from a vote of the people at town meeting.
I have been unable to flnd any res¬ olution adopted by any town meeting of the town of Hempstead, which can be construed as giving your board the power lo make this lease in question.
Upon an examination of the rec- ord.1. il is found that three resolu¬ tions materlai to the qlueatlon of leases, wf'c passed, one by the Board of Supervhors of Queens Counly and two bv the people of the Town of HempaUftd. The resolutions are ae follows:
On Oct. 21 1876, the board of su¬ pervisors, evidently purporting to act nnder Section 26 of Chapier 48 2 of the Laws of 1875, and at the request of the electors of the town (Vol. 7 Town Records, page 470), passed a resolution (Vol. 7 Town Records, page 477) dividing the town of Hemp¬ stead into eleclion districts, provid¬ ing that thereafter town meetings should be held in such districts. Sec- lion 12 of this resolution provided among other things:
"They" (supervisor, justices and lown clerk) "shall also have in care the publlc property of the lown."
The only aulhority for the board of supervisors including such lan¬ guage in their resolution is In that part of Section 26 of the Statute which read:
". . . . and to prescribe the manner in which the town business shall be conducted in such districts. '
5. No buildings or structures of any kind should be erected upon the land so leased, wilh the exception of approaches to bridges.
6. All improvements, including bridges, should revere to and belong to the town of Hempstead upon tbe termination of the lease for any cause.
7. All inhabitants of the town should have free access on, along and across any part of the land so leased, at any time

Miss Elizabeth Byrne was the week-

A large euchre, pinochle and dance was held by the Junior O. U. A. M., at the Crystal Lake House on Tues¬ day evening, Nov. 30. The affair
should be clear and cxpillclt no one can say that a delegation of power to the town board to grant can be spelled out of the mention in the resolutions above quoted of "fu¬ ture rent under said leases." The
church held a supper at the Brooklyn Hall Tuesday evening. A large num¬ ber of the members were present. Mrs. C. E. Cross entertained Mrs.
montinn r.t t„t„„.i „....* v.fo..' ««!« t« i L. Jonos, Mrs. Remson Boreum and mention of future rent prefers, only to „_ ^ ;^ ai„«,„ i-=f wih»„ „«-.. the leases already exlstinj;.
The reference to leasee made by the town offlcers meiana leases made by such offlcers prior to the passage of the resolution. What is there in the resolutions which indicates any other meaning?
Until, therefore, your board is au¬ thorized by a vole if the people at town meeting to make the lease in question, I respectfully advise that no action be laken.
If such a proposition were submit¬ ted to a vote of the people, I believe there should be Incorporated therein provisions properly safe-guarding the interest of the town in case the ap¬ plication were granted. Including the following:
1. A lease for ninety-nine years is practically equivalent to a grant In fee. For such a period of time nomi¬ nal consideration does not seem auf¬ fldent. It would seem that such a lease should be limited to flfty years, unless a more substantial considera¬ tion Is given.
2. The property to be leased should be accurately surveyed and described.
3. The use of the property so leased should be restricted to highway pur¬ poses, and the property so leased should not be used for trolley or rail¬ road purposes, unless proper permis¬ sion Is obtained therefor, and upon payment to tho town of a certain pro¬ portion ot the gross receipts.
4. The town should have aeeeaa to and the right to cross the land ao leased at sby point at. IMlow or above
