The document provides a brief history of the origins and development of Scouting. It began in 1907 when Robert Baden-Powell held the first Scout camp on Brownsea Island in England. The movement was inspired by Baden-Powell's military experiences and desire to improve youth development. Scouting later spread to other countries including the Philippines, where the first Scout troop was founded in 1914 in Zamboanga. The movement aims to develop youth into responsible citizens through outdoor activities and promoting values like duty, God, service and self-improvement.

they ought by right to be happy as we are. And
all who go across the crossings shall give the
poor crossing sweeper some money and you

The trefoil, which is the main part of the
Scout Badge, is the three pointed portion.
Each point represents one of the three points
of the Scout Oath: Duty to God and Country,
Duty to Others, and Duty to Self.
31. The Scout Sign identifies you as a
Scout everywhere in the world. Give it
each time you recite the Scout Oath and
Law. The Scout sign is sometimes use to
signal attention. When a Scout leader
raises a hand in the Scout sign, all others
should also make the sign and come to
silent attention. The three fingers pointing
up symbolize the three points of the
Oath. They also signify that a Scout
climbs upward to bigger and better
things. The two other fingers stand for
the bond of brotherhood and friendship
that ties all Scouts together.
