Of any one
hundred boys who become Scouts, it must be confessed that thirty will
drop out in their first year. Perhaps this may be regarded as a failure,
but in later life all of these will remember that they had been Scouts
and will speak well of the program.
Of the one hundred, only rarely will one ever appear before a
juvenile court judge. Twelve of the one hundred will be from families
that belong to no church. Through Scouting, these twelve and many of
their families will be brought into contact with a church and will
continue to be active all their lives. Six of the one hundred will
become pastors.
Each of the one hundred will learn something from Scouting.
Almost all will develop hobbies that will add interest throughout the
rest of their lives. Approximately one-half will serve in the military,
and in varying degrees, profit from their Scout training. At least one
will use it to save another person's life and many will credit it with
saving their own.
Four of the one hundred will reach Eagle rank, and at least
one will later say that he valued his Eagle above his college degree.
Many will find their future vocation through merit badge work and
Scouting contacts. Seventeen of the one hundred boys will later become
Scout leaders and will give leadership to thousands of additional
boys.
One in
four Eagle Scouts will earn their Bronze Palm. Only about half
of these boys will earn their gold and silver palms.
Only one in four boys in America will become a Scout, but it
is interesting to know that of the leaders in this nation in business,
religion and politics, three out of four were Scouts.
This story will never end. Like the "Golden Pebble" of
service dropped into the human sea it will continue to radiate in
ever-widening circles, influencing the characters of men down through
unending time.
