- Educational Work of the Boy Scouts. Bulletin, 1919, No. 24 Barclay, Lorne W. Altruism Males Delinquency Youth Programs Clubs Child Development Values Education Democratic Values Leadership Public Schools Elementary Secondary Education Higher Education Federal Government Guides Libraries Films War Military Training Scouting has been described as the process of making real boys into real men by a real program that works. This program is adapted to the boy's leisure hours, but its principles are the kind that permeate every phase of his life, becoming part and parcel of himself. Character development is the keynote of scouting. By precept and practice it instills ideals of courage and honor, cheerfulness and kindness, loyalty and obedience, cleanliness of mind and body, faithfulness to duty, devotion to country, reverence to God. By his oath the scout pledges himself to "help other people at all times," to keep himself "physically strong, mentally awake, morally straight."
