General Baden-Powell and a detachment of his Boy Scouts furnish an afternoon's entertainment for the wounded Amer. soldiers at the Amer. hospital at Tottenham, near London. The hero of the afternoon's entertainment was a Scotch soldier, a resident of Tottenham, who has just been awarded the Victoria Cross for valor on the Western Front. Col. John B. Anderson of Austin, Texas, the commander of the hospital, stands next to him. General Baden-Powell is just behind the Scotchman, directly under the Amer. flag
