Judge Fitchbecame so enthusiastic over his boys that he declined all high offices inthe scout movement, because he said he wanted to be a scoutmaster andbe next to the boys themselves, whom he loved so well. We nowhave in Flushing 200 splendid troops, including a Jewish troop and thecolored troop of which Scoutmaster Hicks is the leader. The success of the Flushing Boy Scouts is due to the splendid en-thusiasm, vigorous and conscientious work of the fine men we have inthe positions of commissioners and scoutmasters. The Boy Scouts ofFlushing is something in which the business men of Flushing take justpride. They form a group of boys of which Long Island may well beproud. Hon. G. Howland Leavitt is President and Albert H. Spence Dis-trict THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS OFFLUSHING By Miss CAROLYN A. FREEMAN, Guardian
