4v1ththem lonescouts this week brings us news from our most northerly lone scout who lives at tho hudson bay post at landsdowng house in northern on tario his name is walter wraigbt and waiter is quite an outstanding scout in other respects besides his northerly location coming from the old country last year ho brought a very fine re cord with him and he is the posses sor of the coveted silver cross tor bravery which was bestowed upon him for saving tho life of a dog tho lone scout commissioner has a picture of walter with the dog a cocker spaniel that he saved on arrival in canada ho was sent to one ot the hudson bay com panys northern ontario posts and ho has been in that part ot the coun try over since and tells us that he quite enjoys the life although it is a little lonely at times especially in the winter tlmo when travelling is difficult and he has to wait for a long tlmo for his mall walter has loarned to drive a dog team but ho says that it you talk kindly to the dogs they think that you are a weakling and just lie down on the track and wont budge it u necessary to use quite strong lang- uago to them before they will take any notice ot you the last mall which the po3t received was brought in by dog team driven by an italian priest and he was quite embarras sed by the fact that the dogs would tahe no iotice of ordinary language so he compromised by swearing at them in spanish walter is a lone scout indeed lately we have noticed several people busily engaged in their gar dens and this reminds us that every lone scout will of course have a garden talks it is

partic ular nourishment that vegetable re quires and may also fill the wu full of disease then too some degumin- oua crops such as peas and beans should qualify for the gardeners badge and now is the time to com mence operations to earn this badge i which actually add fertilizer to the like quite a tew of the other scout soil must be moved around so that badges the gardeners requires quite the whole garden will benefit these a little patience and cannot be earn- w help to compensate for the iu- ed overnight i roads made by such gross feeders as it is necessary to have some knowl- carrots
