Scouting is a program in
which toys from eight years
old on can learn how to do
things for themselves and for
other people. It is a program
that develops physical fitness,
skill, self-reliance, courage,
and high ideals of sendee to
God and country.
Scouting is in a partnership
I with the home, the school, the
B church and other institutions
that are responsible for the
proper guidance and education
of the boys and young men
of the community. Every ScOut
unit is sponsored by a school;
church or synagogue; civic
group; farm, labor, or business
organizations; or by a respon-
sible group of citizens repre-
sentating the community as a
whole. Scouting has woven it-
self into the very fabric of the
nation.
Since 1910 more than 26,000,-
000 boys and men have been
enriched by its training. To-
day there are 3,312,841 boys
active in its ranks. Today 1,-
213,461 adults serving as vol-
unteer leaders are helping
build the future of our coun-
try by their service to boy-
hoou through Scouting. Des-
pite this magificent record, the
organization feels a challenge
to do even more.
Through its 1957 recogni-
tion roundup this fall, Scout-
ing seeks to bring more boys
into its ranks and more trained
leaders to guide them; to rec-

A search for quicksilver has
been started by the Dow
Chemical Company in wild Big
Bend country of Texas.
Core drilling for mercury
started July 15 in the south-
east portion of Brewster Coun-
ty. Known as the Maravillas
Mercury Project, the operation
is located on approximately a
section of desert-like land on
which Dow has mineral claims.
Dow geologists, led by Dr.
W. N. McAriulty—he is head of
the Lake Jackson section of
the Texas Division’s Geologic-
al Department, have been
working in some of the most
rugged country in the South-
west.
Brewster County is the home
of Big Bend National Park and
also is known for its quick-
silver mine::. In years past,
quUcksii'ver was produced in
great volume from mines near
Terlingua. The old mining
town is located akxtut 75 miles
southwest of Dow’s drilling
projejet. Quicksilver mining in
Brewster County has been in-
termittent in recent years.

agency loans money for ex-

IT, U. S. consumption of mer-

In 1956. the U. S. produced
only about one-eighth of the I

Mercury has many uses, in-
cluding electrolysis for chlo-

has agricultural uses and a
market in the manufacture of
electrical apparatus and in-
