Teach Scouts not how to get a living, but how to live.
Scoutmasters deal with the individual boy rather than with the mass.
A boy is supremely confident of his own power, and dislikes being treated as a child.
Scoutmasters need the capacity to enjoy the out-of-doors.
Scouting is a game for boys under the leadership of boys under the direction of a man.
The object of the patrol method is not so much saving the Scoutmaster trouble as to give responsibility to the boy.
