Strange that these queer creaâ€" tures should find a footing in the wholesome atmostphere of the newer West. It is hard to account for the movement of plagues. Mrs. Newlywedâ€"Well, it doesn‘t. I sent the maid down there with a note telling them I wanted to borrow $100 and they wouldn‘t give it to her.â€" Globe and Mail, Mrs. Newlywedâ€"Henry, I thought you told me that your bank loaned money on notes. Mr. Newlywedâ€"So it does, dear Why? "What shall we call thLl one?" asked Adam. "TLet‘s call it a rhinoceros?" "But why a rhinoceros?" "Well, because it looks more like a rhinoceros than anything we‘ve named yet.‘"â€"North Bay Nugget. Adam and Eve were naming the animals of the earth when along came a rhinoceros The boys had evidently worked hard, clearing brush and making their camp convenient for use and comfortable. There were remarkably few flies and mosquitoes; the tents are sprayed every evening at bed time, After inspection Joe Ormston cooked the weiners and then there was a free for .. all. Franik Melville, Chairman of (the scouts Committee, and acting Scoutâ€" master, and Sam Morgan, Scoutmasâ€" ter, did the honours. ‘The boys assemâ€" bled for the ceremony of lowering the Flag and the delegation was conducted through the camp on a tour of inâ€" spection. ‘ It might be mentioned that the Seventh Troop is sponsored by the Legion. Friends and relatives of men and women from Timmins who have lost their lives while serving ~with the active forces are asked to kindly send particulars to Les Nicholson, President, Canadian Legion, Timmins, Ormston, Bob Russell, J. H. Kneel, and headed by Jack Brady, visited the 1st. Timimins Troop (Wolf Patrol) and the "th. Troop (Fagles), Boy Scouts, who have been encamped for two wweks on Jack Brady‘s lot at the northern end of Lake Kam Kotia. As the delegation went fully equipped with weiners, canâ€" dy, lots of pop and all the accessories needed for a weiner roast, their arrival cheated quite a respectable flurry in the camp. Unfortunatley two of the boys had selected that evening to qualâ€" ify as first class scouts and had already started for Half Moon Lake before the delegation afrived, to spend â€" their twentyâ€"four hours in camp alone. There was, however, more than enâ€" ough for everybody and they would be able to make up for what they had missed when they returned.
