A number of years ago a book called, "Shut Your Mouth and Save Your Life," was written. The writer showed how the Red Indians for long time had adopted that method with their children to the extent of tying up their jaws at night, to ensure Proper care of the nozse is a very imâ€" portant factor in maintaining good health. A Scout must be able t> smell well, espetially if trying to lozcate an enemy by night. If h> always breathes through the nose, and not through the mouth, this helps him considerably. Most of you can probably tell direcâ€" tion with the aid of a compass, but can you tell direction with the aid of your watch? Try this method:â€"Place the watch flat on your hand and stand a lead pencil or small stick over the end of the hour hand. Turn the watch unâ€" til the shadow of the pencil falls along the hour hand. Now a line drawn half way betweson the end of the hour hand and 12 c‘cleck runs north and ! south, and between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. !the north will lie on the side of the g'wabch on which the hour hand is farthest from 12 oc‘clock. Now you will want to know what to do in case the sun is not shining. On almost any cloudy day you will be able to use the watch method if you will. take a piece of white paper and place it over the face of the watch, and hold the pencil at the end of the hour hand, close but not touching the paper. Unâ€" der the point of the pencil you will noâ€" tice a very small shadow. One side of , the shadow will have a sharp or wellâ€" defined edge, and the opposite side will be rough and indistinct. The sharp edge is the side from which the light of the sun is trying to come, therefore, turn the hour hand in that direction, or unâ€" til you think the little shadow, if proâ€" duced backward, would pass through the centre of the watch. Sometimes | it will be so dark that it will be difficult | even to see the shadow under the point | of the p>neil. In that case use a stick | ] absut an inch square and not sharpenâ€" |. ed, Practice will show you that no ; matter how dark the day you can alâ€" ways get a shadow and that the shadow will have a sharp edge and a rough edge. The sharp edge is the side toâ€" ward the sun. 3 J The knights of old were particularly courteous to women and always ready to helr! aryone in distress. (5) A Sceout is courieous. That is, he is polite to allâ€"but especially to woâ€" men and children, and old people and invalids, cripples, etc. And he must not take any reward for being helpful and courteous. The fishsrman‘s knot is another very us>ful knot. It is used for tying the ends of ropes of different sizes. And particularly ropes which are wet or greasy. The knot derives its name from the fact that it is commonly used for joining silk or gut on fishing tackle. This week we will explain the fifth of the ten Scout laws, namely:â€"â€" Another knot a Scout must be able to tie is the clove hitch. This is one of the most used and most useful of all the hitches, as it takes a strain in either direction without slackening. It is used for mooring ships, heads of derricks, for guy lines, and all kind of rigging work, and it is always used for commencing and finishing a lashing. It is easily undone. [ In a recent issue of The Daily Mirror was a picture of Bruno Mussolino, son of the Italian premier, handing regisâ€" tration cards to newlyâ€"enlisted Boy Scouts at a great rally in Rome. His younger brother, Vittorio, was also present. Scouting seems to be doing quite nicely in France too. There are abrout 41,859 Scouts, Leaders, Wolf Cubs, Rover Scouts and Sea Scouts in this very interesting old country. Scouts used the names of towns, cities, provinces, states, rivers and lakes. This is a game where quick thinking is necessary in order to win. Thursday evening a number of the Sesouts along with the Scoutmaster, hiked cut to the cabin. While there thay had a treasure hunt for candies but the boys seemed to have a very keen nose for that kind of treasure with the result that the candy was soon disposed of. Ancther game, that proved very interesting, was one in which the letters of the alrthabet are written on sheets of paper, one letter on each sheet, and the boy first namâ€" ing a bird or animal whose name starts with that particular letter, which is held up for all to see, obtains possession of that particular letter. The boy getâ€" ting most of these letters wins and reâ€" ceives a reward. At various times the The Scouts had a knotâ€"tying contest, which proved that some of the boys are really quite good at tying knotes, some of thom being able to tie the more diffiâ€" cult ones in less than ten seconds, Of course there were also some that didn‘t manage to tie them quite so fast, but the result of the contest was rather satisfying as it showed that the boys were keeping up on their work quite nicely. Immediately after roll call the patrol leaders took charge for twenty minutes‘ instruction in ambulance work, signallâ€" ng and map reading. Following this was a short period of physical and military drill. Then came some games, such as "skinâ€"theâ€"snake" and several games in which the medicine balls were At last week‘s meeting of the Boy Scouts, there was considerable work done in preparing the boys for their second and first class badges.

The expressâ€". ed hop» is that every year will see a continuation of this work, providing not only roads but a sourc> of income for the settlers who find, under past ard present conditions existing, theirl income seriously curtailed. | A correspondent at Hoyle last week sent in the following items of interest: Items of Interest From Hoyle and Neighbourhood _ We are sure the Government has no desire to enter into the business of catering to the ordinary tourist in opâ€" position to legitimate resort keepers. But, members of the "Ontario Tourist Trade Association" must not be too selfish in their motives. Through Govâ€" ernment efforts the Ferguson highway should soon see sufficient tourist travel to tax the conveniences of all those who desire to cater to that business., Reading the protest from North Bay regarding the Ontario Government‘s proposal to establish a tourist camp at Martin River, on the Ferguson highway, as appeared in the Ottawa Journal of Monday last, one is forced to acsk "what is it all about?" As we see it the Government can hardly do too much to popularize the Ferguson highâ€" way between North Bay and the Clayâ€" belt. The stretch of country between Latchford and Tilden Lake (about twenty miles above North Bay), is a veritable tourist paradise. Any efforts made to get the tourist from either the States or other parts of Canada to lspend a portion of his holiday trip in |that, section of Northern Ontario is a {guaramee that the following year will sese still other visitors brought to the North through the unconscious adverâ€" tising the first visitor gives. It is needâ€" less to point out that many of these visitors leave a considerable sum of money in some one or other of the towns through which they pass, and North Bay is in a position to get them "both coming and going." The Govâ€" ernment can carry on the pm'ticulari line of work much better than the inâ€"| dividual and should be encouraged to continue rather than otherwise. | proposed of establishing further tourist camps along the Ferguson highway. The delegation took the attitude that the present tourist camps established by private enterprise could not make money now and that conditions would be worse if further camps were opened. The cther side of the question is given in The New Liskeard Spraker last week.. IfA referring to the matter The Speaker has the following couple of paragraphs:â€" Last week The Advance told of a delegation from the Ontario Tourist Trade Association ariproaching the Government to protest against the plan Other Side Given of the Tourist Camp Question Inspection Is Lacking There is not proper fire inspect.ion of those buildings. The provincial fire marshal‘s headquarters is in Toronto and consequerily North>m Ontario cen‘res are not undz2r as close superâ€" "Part of the blame for the present situation, according to this insurance man, can be placed on those who sold land to settlers when these towns were being built. At that time land which had been bought at about $2 an acre lwas divided up and sold in lots of 25 feet frontage at anywhere from $150 to ’3300 a lot. Wooden buildings were constructed on these lots and in the business section there were practically no restrictions enforced or provisions made for protection against fire. The result is today that on each side of a business block is a row of wooden structures, between which there is pracâ€" tically no space. When a fire breaks out in one building it is almost imâ€" possible to check it until the whole block is razed. i "In addition to the losses already suffered of the buildings Gestroyed, there is danger of further losses from similar outbreaks, because of the fact that many insurance companies will no longer take the risk of placing insurâ€" ance on properities in these centres. The rates charged for fire protection in these towns is now from six to eight 'per cent., an extremely high figure. ' Must Lessen Risk [ "In commenting on the situation, one insurance company representative. in Sudbury stated that every year it was becoming harder to put through policies on property in these northern towns, and said that in many cases, companies had cancelled policies,. He also pvedicted that unless something was done to lessen the risk, residents of those centres would soon find it pracâ€" tically impossible to cbtain fire protecâ€" tion for their property. est difficulties and with inadequate equipment, that the total damage did not run into much larger figures. "In all four towns loss of life was averted more by good fortune than anything else and it was only through the heroic work of firemen and citizens, all of whom laboured under the greatâ€" "During the past three months heavy property damage has been caused by fires in four Northern Ontario towns. In Foleyet a section of the main busiâ€" ness street was swept by the flames; Hornepayne also lost part of a business block; in Gogama a hotel and several stores were bumed, and there was a serious loss in Hearst. that the situation so far as the. North Land is concerned will be advantaged in two chief ways. One of these ways is by the insurance companies followâ€" ing the line that rates will be reduced as equipment is increased. The other way is by the appointment of a special representative of the Ontario fire marâ€" shal for the North Land. It is imposâ€" sible to care for this huge territory from the Toronto office of the fire marshal with its present inadequate staff for so extended a territory. Folâ€" lowing along these two main lines of change, The Advance believe that great progress would be made in the righting of present untoward cconditions. There may bs some interest in the following article from the The Sudbury Star last week in regard to the quesâ€" tion. The Star says:â€" In the last few weeks the question has been rather widely discussed. The Advance has seen many different views on the matter, but still has the opinion help themselves that progress in the matter would appear to be probable, and for this reason it seems to The Advance that pressure on the insurance companies to secure reductions of rates where the same are earned would be of material advantage. As it is at presâ€" ent the smaller towns and villages pay so much in insurance rates that they can afford little for fire protection. A vicious circle is thus established to the loss of all. ] Some weeks ago The Advance referâ€" red to an editorial note in The Toront> Globe in which it was suggested thait the Ontario Governmont might provide or assist in providing fireâ€"figh:tingz 'equipment for North Land towns. The Advance mentioned in this connection the fact that part of the diffsulty was due to causes usually carsfully avcided in discussing the question. One of these causes was the fact that the inâ€" surance comjpunies did ‘nct make it worth the while of the towns to provide the> nscessary fireâ€"fighting equipment. It was also pointed out that the condiâ€" tions in Northern Ontario towns like Gowganda, Foleyet, Gogama and Hornepayne were litil‘e different from lcts of towns of similar size in old Onâ€" taric. The case of Timmins was speâ€" clally referred to. This town money freely for fire protection, and yei rates here are by no means in proâ€" \partibn to the protection assured. The town of Timmins is better guarded against the danger of fire than most towns this size in Old Ontario, yet the rates in this town for fire insurâ€" ance are double and more what the same service costs in the clder part of the province under similar conditions. It does not seem reasonable or practiâ€" cal to expect the Ontario Government to provide in part or in whole the needed fireâ€"fighting equipment necesâ€" sary for all the small towns and vilâ€" lages of the province. If the rates were reduced in proportion to the equipment secured and the preparations made to avoid fire risks, such action as the Loâ€" posed would scarcely be nscessary.
