    A Scout is Clean

    (Hold up two cooking pots, one shiny bright on the inside but sooty outside, the other shiny outside but dirty inside.) Scouts, which one of these pots would you rather have your food cooked in? Did I hear someboy say, "Neither one?"
    That's not a bad answer. We wouldn't have much confidence in a patrol cook who didn't have his pots shiny both inside and out.
    But if we had to make a choice, we would tell the cook to use the pot that's clean inside. The same idea applies to people.
    Most people keep themselves clean outside. But how about the inside? Do we try to keep our minds and our language clean? I think that's even more important than keeping the outside clean.
    A Scout, of course, should be clean inside and out.
    Water, soap, and a toothbrush take care of the outside. Only your determination will keep the inside clean. You can do it by following the Scout Law and the example of people you respect-your parents, your teachers, your clergyman, or a good buddy who is trying to do the same thing.
