Book Description

Excerpt from Annual Report of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association of the Union, 1922 Knowing how heartily it would meet with your approval, I granted free admission to the Boy Scouts of the District of Columbia when I learned from Mr. Edward. D. Shaw, Scout Executive of the Council, that the boys had expressed a desire to visit Mount Vernon on Washington's Birthday to pay respect to the Father of their Country - and the' Council felt that a visit, such as the proposed one, would prove most helpful in stimulating patriotism in the boys.
