BOY SCOUTS AT WORK.

The Shanghai Boy Scouts were mobilized in the afternoon, when the first party was sent to the gaol in Amoy Road where they were placed under the command of Capt. Thomas, who is in charge of "B" Company, S.V.C. A second detachment placed themselves under Major Pilcher at the Town Hall, and a third party was sent to the S.V.C. headquarters. All these boys were drawn from the cyclists corps. In order to aid the wounded another large batch of boys possessing first aid badges was drafted to the Tientsin Road Red Cross Hospital, and others, with their first aid gear, took up positions on the roads leading from the scene of fighting.
