Not the least important among the many requirements of the scout is the good turn or kindness which he must do for someone every day without financial reward. The performance of the daily good turn develops courtesy, gallantry and social consciousness and fixes in his mind a realization of the fact that he is one of the threads in the social fabric of humanity. The boy-training of today, whether parental or organizational, should emphasize the importance of service to others, and the boy in whom this altruistic idea is grounded will not give his parents great cause for worry. If this organization had no requirement other than the daily good turn, that fact alone would be sufficient excuse for its existence. These samples of good turns, taken from the records of a Scout troop, are as varied as the natures and opportunities of the boys themselves and afford an interesting study in adolescent psychology: 1. I helped a blind man ’cross the street. 2. A steam roller was passing and frightened a horse, I held the horse until the roller went by. 3. Fed a starving cat. 4. I gave a dime to a orfun asilam. 5.
