Boys can see adventure in a dirty old duck puddle, and if the Scoutmaster is a boys' man he can see it, too.
The boy is not governed by don't, but is led by do.
The Scout Oath and Law are our binding disciplinary force.
Scoutmasters need to enter into boys' ambitions.
It is only when you know a boy's environment that you can know what influences to bring to bear.
We are not a club or a Sunday school class, but a school of the woods.
