  • Merits of Invention Edition
    Vol. 7, No. 11 MERITS OF INVENTION EDITION In this Issue: • The Last Inventor • Merit Badge Sashes • Earning Them All • Reinventing the Invention Merit Badge • Thomas Edison and Scouting • Thomas Edison Supernova Award “Build a better mousetrap,” goes an old saying, “and the world will beat a pathway to your door.” That’s all good, unless you happen to be a mouse. Inventing things captures the imagination of young people. Find some tools, boards, pipes, wires, and before long they are nailing, pounding, shaping, bolting, gluing, and imagining what to make next. It’s an impulse Scouting has encouraged since the BSA’s earliest days. THE LAST INVENTOR This year marks a tiny Scouting anniversary. A hundred years ago in 1915, exactly one person earned the Invention merit badge. He was also the tenth and last to receive what has become the BSA’s least-earned award and rarest embroidered patch. Invention was one of the original 57 merit badges listed in the 1911 Boy Scout Handbook. It had just two requirements. Inventing something is one thing. Getting it patented is quite another. To protect an invention from use by others without permission, an inventor must file with the United States Office of Patents and Trademarks and then wait to learn if a patent has been granted. Many early BSA emblems show evidence of being patented. A Scout who did earn the Invention merit badge was Graeme Smallwood of Troop 32, Washington, DC. It was his 38th merit badge. He filed for his patent on October 27, 1914, and received it thirteen months later on the last day of November, 1915.

    BATON ROUGE POLICE DEPARTMENT General Order Effective Date Revised Date No.113 11-01-1994 10-14-2019 Subject: Awards and Merit Reviewed 10/10/19 POLICY It is the policy of this Department to actively seek to recognize individual and collective acts above and beyond an officer's or units’ assigned duties. This policy is designed not only to recognize heroic acts, but to reward those officers whose performance is outstanding and those who develop innovative and ingenious methods of furthering the goals and objectives of the Department. The purpose of the Meritorious Awards Program is to create criteria and procedure for recognition of commendable acts, acts of valor, the saving of human life, exceptional service, and outstanding achievements performed by members of the Department while in the service of the community. PROCEDURES I. Meritorious Awards Review Board Established A. The Department has established a system of recommendation and review for acts that fit the general criteria above. It is in the best interest of the Department that outstanding officers be recognized so that their accomplishments set an example for all to follow. It is the responsibility of each and every officer to bring such acts to the Department's attention through the recommendation process. B. It is the Department's responsibility to document each recommendation to assure that no act fitting the enumerated criteria goes unrewarded, and to maintain the integrity of the awards so that their value is not lost or demeaned. To that end, the Meritorious Award Review Board has been established. C. Those chosen to administer this program will not take this responsibility lightly; it is a serious task.

Nos.52875-528576 No. 120-2014 Special Edition - 50th Anniversary Order of St. John of Jerusalem, Knights Hospitaller Russian Grand Priory of Malta ‘Palazzino Sapienti’, 223 St. Paul Street, Valletta VLT 1217 Malta. Telephone: +356 2123 0712 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.maltaknights.org TheLieutenant Grand Master of the Order H.E. Bailiff Michel Bohé OSJ, CMSJ Noteworthy memories of the past have, on the 8th of March 2014, made my visit to Malta a pleasurable and yet sentimental visit purposely made to celebrate, with the members of the Malta Priory, the 50th anniversary of the inauguration of ‘The Malta Priory’. Throughout these past fifty years, the Malta Priory has under- gone great changes - some good but others painful to the extent that schisms started to take place right after the death of King Peter. The main and most important change was when The Malta Priory was elevated, in February 22, 1970, to a Grand Priory to be known as the Russian Grand Priory of Malta. and to become the mother and the base of the Order as it stands today. From the many schisms that had occurred, a fortunate and positive move took place in April 2006 when, by the signing of a Concordat, a number of Priories joined the Russian Grand Priory of Malta to return back within their home base and International Headquarters in Malta.
