Fun, fighting, and feeding! These are the three indispensable elements of the boy's world.

It is important to arrange games and competition so that all Scouts of the troop take part.

It should be the thing never to mention unfairness of judging when defeated in a contest.

A boy is not a sitting-down animal.

Teach Scouts not how to get a living, but how to live.
