_C_: Is there any business to come before our Wigwam? _(Reports, unfinished business, and new business_.) _C_: Is there one fit to join our Wigwam? (_If there is a candidate who has secured his parents' consent and who at a previous meeting has been elected to membership with not more than two ballots against him he can be initiated at this time_.) _C_: Brave Right Hand, what shall we do now? _(Right Hand says how the time shall be spent_.) CLOSING _Chief calls to order with a whistle. Each Brave takes his place quickly and quietly. (Moccasins or gymnasium shoes are worn in all Wigwam sessions_.) _Chief gives two raps. All arise_. _C_: My Braves, we are about to leave the Campfire. Let us join hands and repeat our covenant. _(All join hands and repeat clause by clause after the Chief_.) We covenant with our Chief and one another: To be true men, To protect the weak, To honor woman, To make the most of life, And to endeavor to please God. So do we covenant. _Then the national anthem is sung and the following yell is given_: Who are we? Chee Poo Kaw Waupun Wigwam, Rah, Rah, Rah!! This club proved of value in a town of three thousand which had a dozen saloons and no organized work for boys or young men. It was supplemented by a brotherhood for the older boys. In the clubroom was a large fireplace in which a wood fire burned during the sessions. The room could be partially darkened. The walls were covered with Indian pictures and handicraft, and the surrounding country abounded in Indian relics. In the summer the club went camping on the shore of a lake nine miles distant. From another of the many successful clubs of this type the following article on "Purpose" as stated in the constitution is worthy of note: "We gather in our Wigwam that we may become strong as our bows, straight as our arrows, and pure as the lakes of the forest." Clubs patterned after rangers, yeomen, lifesaving crews, and what not have been successfully projected to meet and idealize local interest; and the novelty and slightly concealed symbolism seem to take with boys of this age. But the most important factor is never the organization as such but _the leader_. For the period of from fourteen to seventeen years probably no better organization has been devised than the Knights of King Arthur. Its full requirements may be too elaborate in some cases but freedom to simplify is granted, and also to eliminate the requirement of Sunday-school attendance as a prerequisite to membership and the requirement of church membership as a prerequisite to knighthood. Leaders dealing with this age should read _The Boy Problem_ by William Byron Forbush and _The Boy's Round Table_ by Forbush and Masseck (Boston and Chicago: Pilgrim Press, 6th edition, $1.00 each).
