*blinks twice* Did you say 193<i>5</i> no motto? Are you quite sure? I'll have to check, but I thought the last year w/o motto was 1934, making '35 the first ones with.

Um, Allen, in case you were curious, Scout membership -BSA only, as that's all I have access to- is currently the largest it's been since its true heyday in the late 50s-early 60s. Reports of it's demise are quite exaggerated. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> ...
