THE BOY SCOUTS LEFT US SUNDAY ON THE "ALMA".
The Boy Scouts of America, encamped at Chilkoot Barracks
since June 1st. left us last Sunday on the "Alma" for Juneau.
They all expressed themselves as well pleased with their two
weeks training and outing and gave many lusty, rousing cheers
for Major F. M.Maddox, Post Commander, and his officers.
The motorship "Alma" came up from Juneau Saturday Bringing a
number of visitors and parents of the Scouts and were entertained
Saturday night with a dance at the Post Hall which was pronounced
by the visitors a complete success, music furnished by the Post
Cootie Orchestra.
Sunday morning 1st, Lieutenant E.M.Sutherland with a detachment
from Company"B" put on a demonstration for the visitors with the
automatic rifle, machine gun, trench mortar and one pounder, on
the target range with live ammunition, registering many hits on
the targets and showing just how it is done in real war.
A detachment from Company "F" demonstrated just how a squad
maneuvers in real war, firing over the heads of the visitors,
who were placed in the target pits, afterwards expressing them
selves as greatly thrilled by their unique experience.
The visitors expressed themselves as very greatly elated over
their pleasant trip and spoke very highly of the class of enter
tainment furnished.
The entire personnel of Chilkoot Barracks enjoyed having them
with us and hope tney will honor us with a visit again in- 1926.
CHURCH HO TICE.
Sunday, June 21st. is the longest day in the year. It is a

is just the anchor you need to keep you buoyany and cheerful,
and the church going habit keeps you in touch with God’s truth.
