Realtor's Election Continued from Page 4 Main Street weBt of the railroad trucks und Depot Squure have changed almost beyond recognition. If it wasn't for the old depot you might be anywhere . Walking through l ite Main Street of today, people who remember; something of other days sometimes feel like strangers In their own homo town . Of course It has all come about gradually. A home taken down here and there, modern stores built, brick buildings for schools, post office, town building, Masonic Temple, banks, etc. Strange new names on doors and windows , IIU IOH , buses und streamlined trnlns , a horse is rarely seen. Strange faces on the street. We often wonder what it will look like 50 years from now to the young people of today. Probably what the present generation bus taken pride in doing will have no interest or value .for them. Will a Cope C'odder GO years from now boar any resemblance to the founding lathers and motheTs?

" I OVER 40 Continued from Pag e I announced by Victor M. .Friar of Falmouth , finance chairman of the campaign. Other towns and their quotas fol- low: Bourne, $1100; Brewster, $500; Chatham, $1,300; Dennis, $500; Enstham, $250; Falmouth, $, S00; Harwich , $1,100; Mashpee, $100; Orleans $800; Provlncetown , $700; Sandwich , $300; Truro, $350; Well- fleet , $300, and Yarmouth, $1,300. Of the $4 ,800 allotted for the Town of Barnstable , $000 has been set as a goal for Hyannis; $1,100 for Centerville; $700 for Osterville; $400 each for Cotult and Bunistuble village , and $100 each for Marstons Mills and West Barnstable. I Every penny contributed by don- ' oi's in Hie coming Scout campaign for 1950 Cape Scout expensos, with the exception of one-third of one per cent , goes back to Cape Scout- ing in services or materials, it was stated today by Scout officials. Ot the more than 99 per cent of the funds which go to Cape Scout- ing, nearly 71 per cent will be used for camping, activities, training, field services, and extension, The remainder will be assigned to gen- eral administration expenses, fund- raising expenses, and national serv- ice. The budget of $16,000 is the "absolute minimum," according to Scout officials, for 1950 activities. The breakdown by functions for a Scout dollar follows: For camp- ing, 13 cents; for activities (ad- vancement program, awards, etc.), 12% cents; for training, 12 cents; for field services (supervision of units , guidance of adults, etc.), 21 cents; for extension (training and organizing new units), 12V4 cents; for general administration (Council office and salaries for three per- manent staff members), 22'/ J cents; fund-raising expenses, G cents; na- tional service (with u)l but ono- third of one per cent coming buck to the Cape In the form of supplies, etc.), one and three-fourths emits. Those are the busic fuels, illicit of them lies the continuing pro- gram down the years, which has guided the lives ot thousands of Cape boys into manhood. Thai pro- gram has given guidance to tho in- cipient leadership of Cape youth , and has given the growing boy not onl y the pleasure of doing tor him- self , but the responsibilities ot lead- ing others and thereby preparing himself for his place in the world of the future. It Is a truism easily forgotten , that what a nation is or can hope to be, lies in Its men and women. A nation or group Is no better than tbo Bum total of the individuals composing It , and it followB that tomorrow 's citizens, by their abil- ity or failure to measure up to tho difficulties of tomorrow 's world , will determine that world. Here Is where tho Scout movement pluys a large part In development of tho kind of future citizen the United Stales will Increasingly need. Such simple und basic alms as ordinary honesty, lack of hypocrisy, moral courugo to face up to a sit- uation , are qualities tiio world will need lu years to come. Aud these are soino of llio very qualities Scouts are directed In, during form- ative years. Outside tho family, there 1B no bettor association , no better character building group than tho Hoy Scouts. lit camping, for example, the liulldlngH and properly and water- front aren 't there only for the pleas- ure they can afford Cape youth. Be- hind the program IK Ihe ever-pres- ent Idea of training the youth not only to do things with bis hands , but also to train him in ft subtler, more Important wuy. That truinlng 1B for citizenship, That's tho back- ground ot tho whole Scout program and it 's nowhere hotter exemplified than In tlio proving-ground of Camp Greenough. At Scout camp, Scouts learn to live wllli others, Tlio Scout learns to eat, sloop, play and work on a schedule, thereby Increasing his discipline , and thereby realizing tii.it although person initiative |H paramount, yet by u Hitlo subordin- ation of self , by give mid take , ho can achieve a balance between in- dividuality ami group cooperation. I He learns to servo and theroby to apprpeaiate service, The interaction of man with man is learned ut an uge when il comes easiest. These are the tilings that help train for citizen , hip. thut help muli o the Scout of today tho re- sponsible resident of the State to- morrow .

NO ACCIDENTS Hobart, Oklahoma , a town of about 5,100 , has not hud a futal auto accident in 50 years. Comet Class Regatta . Originally setting for themselves a full week tor a canoe trip down the Saco River in Maine, eight Cape Scouts and their four leaders fought bad weather which delayed them a full day, then achieved part ot their objective, and finished tho week by climbing part wuy up Mt. Washington In New Hampshire. Rain dogged their footsteps at Kezar Lake in Maine , forcing a halt there at Alaska Bay during Mon- day. Tuesday, by furious puddling, two daya ' canoeing was accom- plished at ono stretch down streams swollen by the downpours. The sec- ond day of cunoolng, Wednesday, found tho group hitting tho Saco River and missing the Inlet to I^ovo- wol l Pond, bocuuso of tbo tricky currents; BO thut a back paddle of four miles was necessary to re- trace stops. That night wus spent again in the rain. Thursday, the group hroko camp, the four 17-foot canoes and the single ID-foot guide canoe wore picked up by tno guide, and the Scouts took to the White Moun- tains, Tuckormun Ravine was climbed to within 100 feot of the summit ovor the headwall , but tho group turned back for lack of time. Friday, while part ot the group turned back to the Capo, the re- maining group clambered up Hun- tington Ravine at Mt. Washington in three and one-hal t hours und re- turned by tbo Lions Head trail by wuy of Halfway House , later re- turning to the Capo to eiul tho week's excursions. Cape Cod Scouting Experiences in Maine Continued from Page f conditioned commuting train which ' we instituted to the Cape this sum- ! mer, together with other Improve- 1 ments in service, we succeeded in doing our part in helping tho Cape and the Islands to have ono of the best summer seasons In their his- tory and in attracting many new people there. "Wo believe a similar result can bo obtained for the remaining pas- senger train service on tbo former Old Colony lhies, if those who are now using the trnlUB as the means of travel to and from Boston had their numbers augmente d by, in most cases, a comparatively small additional number of their neigh- bors and frleml B who are still driv- ing imck and forth to work in Bos- ton, "Wo have talked wit h a consld- 1 erablc number of those now using the trains and they assure us (boy are entirely willing, HB one of the nocoBsury things to insure con- tinuation of train service, to pay an increased commuter fare. Tho In- crease which we shall sook would bring our present commuter faro up to about the level of the present costs of n combination ride by bus and M.T.A. from former Old Colony points to Boston.
