"I think he did a bigger thing for England when he started the Boy Scout movement than when he defended Mafeking against the Boers!" "Why, how can you make that out?" asked Dick, puzzled. "The defence of Mafeking had a whole lot to do with our winning that war!" "That's all right, too," said Harry. "But you know you may be in a bigger war yet than that Boer War ever thought of being."
He threw it aside but still it comes to him and asks for acceptance. He deserves something better, but there is nothing better which we have to give. For there is no badge for a noble good turn. Tom Slade was right." "You said something!" some one shouted. "To be enough of a scout to win the Eagle award is much. To be scout enough to ignore it is more.
The Indian's nose was broken. Kiddie fixed it into shape with sticking plaster. He also extracted a bullet from the man's back and bandaged the wound. "We'll leave him lyin' here on the trail," he decided. "His pards 'll look after him and the others that are wounded, when they come along. They'll soon know what's happened when they scout around. Guess they'll not be eager t' follow us up."
This, then, would seem to prove that it was the army engaged in making these secret experiments with the new explosive, perhaps from a war aeroplane that may have been given over into the charge of the Flying Corps for trial. Hugh immediately advanced toward the officer and gave the regular salute, as every scout is taught to do when he meets one who is above him in rank.

"As to rush, I little relish such a measure; for a scalp or two must be thrown away in the attempt.

'D n me you are a good one! Go it! Keep it up! D n me go it! The tutor continued Of whom did you learn to scout the gownsmen, cudgel the townsmen, kiss their wives, frighten their daughters, and debauch their maids but I?

Para Mor's unfortunate gentleman was the only living person to see when we looked into the gut, and he was too little that way to say much about. Para had fired for the head, but struck lower, so that the scout writhed to his end with a red-hot coal among his last morning's viands.
I would be overrun with similar applications; but I will tell you what you can do. There are hundreds of just such men as you want, who would be glad of such a scout." We thanked him and left. After carefully considering the matter, we concluded to go back to Senatobia and see the captain of the Union troops there.
