SETTING: Room is darkened except for the red, white, and blue candles. One Scout assigned to extinguish each of them.

SCOUT # 1: As I put out this white candle representing purity, may we be ever mindful of the obligation that a Scout is clean. He is clean in body and thought, stands for clean speech, clean sport, clean habits, and travels with a moral crowd.

SCOUT # 2: As I put out this blue candle representing loyalty, may we be ever mindful of the obligation that a Scout is loyal. He is loyal to all to whom loyalty is due - - - his Scout leaders, his home, his parents, and his country.

SCOUT # 3: As I put out this red candle representing courage and sacrifice, may we be ever mindful of our obligation that a Scout is brave. He has the courage to face danger in spite of fear, and to stand up for the right against coaxing of friends and the jeers or threats of enemies, and defeat does not down him.

MC: This court of honor is now closed.
