Scout Ranks

At first you rank as a Candidate until you pass your Tenderfoot tests. Then you can go on and rise to the following ranks:—

  • Candidate.
  • Tenderfoot.
  • Second-Class Scout.
  • First-Class Scout.
  • Corporal.
  • Patrol Leader.
  • Senior Scout or Citizen Scout.

HOW TO BECOME A TENDERFOOT
(S.T.)

A. You must learn the Scout Law.
B. You must make the Scout's Promise.
C. You must learn the Salute and the Woodcraft Signs of the Scouts.
D. You must understand how the Flag is made up, and how it should be flown.
E. You must be able to tie knots and know what they are used for; any four of the following:—
Reef-knot, Sheet bend, Clove-hitch, Bowline, Fisherman's knot, Sheepshank.
F. Elementary Scout's Drill.

This may seem to be rather a lot of things to learn, but they are really very easy, and I will show you in the next few pages how to do it without much trouble.
