The Slide of the Month was a series of articles published in Boys’ Life running from February 1951 to March 2001. Boys’ Life was the predecessor to Scout Life, the current magazine published by Boy Scouts of America. Several authors contributed to the articles over the years. Most involved whittling wood. However, other crafts were used for specific projects including beadwork, horn carving, and some metalwork. Common materials such as wood, leather, beads, metal are usually used. However, some unusual materials can be found including animal bone, fungi or pieces of armadillo tail. The frequency varied from one period to another: sometimes monthly and other times only once a year.

Most of the early articles were written by W. Ben Hunt signing occasionally as "Ben Hunt" and most often as Whittlin' Jim. Upon his death, several other contributors took over Slide of the Month.
Inspiration
editInspiration for the slides came from a wide range of subjects commonly appealing to the boys involved in the Boy Scouts at the time.
These include:
- Scouting related activities
- Fauna
- Native American Folklore
- Americana
- Christianity
- Foreign artifacts
- weapons
The Whittlin' Jim Era
editPrior to starting the Slide of the Month section W. Ben Hunt had been featured in Boys’ Life Magazine as early as December 1942 where he explained how to build an artic sled from scratch in his typical ink and pen artwork that would later be featured in so many of his slide articles.[1]
Unless stated all Slide of the Month articles in this section were signed by Whittlin' Jim. In parentheses are the materials used to construct the slide.
1940s
editStarting in 1945, some early work of neckerchief slides by W. Ben Hunt could be seen in Boys’ Life. In the February 1945 issue, readers learn how to do Beadwork and how it can be used among other things to create slides. The design presented would be reused in the April 1951 issue.[2] In the September 1945 issue an article by W. Ben Hunt was published titled Neckerchief Slides. It featured some of the designs readers would later enjoy in Slide of the Month.[3] In the October 1948 issue featured an article titled Make a Neckerchief Slide by Whittlin' Jim featuring the original Chief Hangs-On made out of wood.[4]
Unless stated all Slide of the Month articles in this section were signed by Whittlin' Jim. In parentheses are the materials used to construct the slide.

* Ben "Whittlin' Jim" Hunt's passing was announced to the readers of Boys’ Life in the Hitchin' Rack section. In this section, readers could write in and get answers from Pedro, the magazine's mascot. Ben Hunt had passed away on March 30, 1970. They also announced that the section would remain but not happen every month.[188]
W. Ben Hunt's Slide Legacy
editIn the June 1981 issue of Boys’ Life, it was announced that the Ben Hunt neckerchief slide collection containing all the slides he made for Slide of the Month would be on display at the 1981 National Jamboree in Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia.[189] It was again on display at the 1985 National Scout Jamboree in July 1985 which took place at the same location as the 1981 event.[190]
A full color article was published on pages 22 to 24 called Masters of the Neckerchief Slide which featured full color pictures of some of Ben Hunt's Slide of the Month creations. It also talks about Lauren "Lew" Weston who was first inspired to carve slides after seeing Ben's creations and who later contributed to the column after Ben's passing.[191]
Post Whittlin' Jim Era
editSlide of the Month Continues (1971-1974)
editFollowing the death of Whittlin' Jim, articles became rarer with only a few coming out each year.
- March 1971: Slide of the Month article with reprints of some past articles: Neckerchief Slide Contest Winners (1953), Sundial (1958), African Masai Shield (1955), Fishing Tackle (1951), Block House (1960), First-aid Kit (1951), Carved Ball in a Cage (1951) and Pedro - His Mark (1956).[192]

Title Temporarily Dropped (1975-1979)
editFrom April 1975 to August 1979, the name Slide of the Month was dropped. However, articles were still being published a few times a year and followed the style and format set by the previous authors: the name of the slide, a few paragraphs explaining the process with a picture of the finished slide, and detailed plans at the bottom. The entire article would fit in a quarter or half page of the magazine.
