To the Editor:

Trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent. This is the Boy Scout Law. I thought of this guide when I was in a customer’s home and saw a photo of their Eagle Scout grandson in uniform. I commented on the achievement and the work involved to reach that level of leadership. We spoke of the type of men these Eagle Scouts become, and how the young grandson has an excellent job due in no small part to this accomplishment.
