ONTARIO, THURSDAY, APRIL 1ST 1943 THE EMBRYO ARTIST urch, Slovalr imber of othe Saturday evening started with a banâ€" quet in the Lions Hall. This banquet was given by the Timmins Local Boy Scouts® Association. iGuests â€"included Patrol Leaders and Seconds of all loâ€" cal troops. Among those on the proâ€" gramme of toasts and responses were:â€" Field Secretary A. E. Paddon, His Worâ€" ship Mayor Brunette, Chief of Police Leo. Gagnon, Ed Copps, editor of The Pross, Badge Examiner G. A. Gibson, of the St. John Ambulance, Deputy Fire Chief James Morton, P. Keast R. Stoneâ€" man, and W. H. Wilson and others. There were seventyâ€"seven at the Ginâ€" ner event, and it was a very pleasing event. After the dinner there was the presentation of badges and awards. In his addresses Pield Secretary Padâ€" don emphasized the fact that in warâ€" time Boy Scouts work was more than usually necessary and valuable. Other speakers also stressed this truth. Monday evening‘s event was a monâ€" ster meeting of local Cub Packs and leaders, some 250 being in attendance. Field Secretary Paddon was specially welcomed to this gathering and added to its success by his presence and inâ€" spiration. Badges were presented and there were demonstrations of Cub acâ€" tivities. Games and singâ€"songs added to the interest. Further details of the several events will be found in the Boy Scout column published elsewhere in this issue of The Advance. This Boy Scout column »s always of interest and should be read every week. This week‘s column is parâ€" ticularly worthy of notice, holding as it does so detailed and able a review of tne meetings held during the weekâ€"end.

No doubt other locaâ€" lities have encountered the same diffiâ€" culty. The St. John Ambulance Briâ€" gade made a serious error in overâ€" looking the community newspapers. The local newspapers have given very generous publicity in the past to the St. John Ambulance Brigade work, and when money was being spent for adverâ€" tising, it does appear that the comâ€" munity newspapers should not have been overlooked, either as a matter of good sportsmanship or a matter of proâ€" per returns. Any local cause needs the support of the community newspaper. According to a letter received toâ€"day from ‘the Porcupine Corps of the St. John Ambulance, the local association has just received details of the classes referred to. The letter from Geo. A. Cibson, Corps Superintendent, reads in part as follows: Available Here at St. John Ambulance Brigade.

A report from Madrid suggests that the Germans now realize that Rommel has not much longer to stay in North Africa. The Madrid report says that the Germans have ordered French ships lying in Mediterranean ports to be reâ€" fitted quickly and sent to Genoa, Speâ€" zia, Sardinia and Sicilian ports.
