Timmins Boy Scout Association will hold their annual Apple Day on Satâ€" urday for the raising of funds for the Scouts‘ registration fees. ‘This date coincides with similar drives being made by Scouting organizations in the maâ€" jority of centres throughout the entire province. Headquarters for the Apple Day here will be in Marshallâ€"Ecclestone‘s showâ€" rooms on Third avenue, additional acâ€" commodation to be provided by the erection of a tent on the McDowell Motors used car lot, adjoining Moisicy and Ball‘s drug store. Members of the different Scout Troops will sell apples at all downtown corners in addition to making a houseâ€"toâ€"house canvas. The Timmins Boy Scout Association is doing a really worth while work and are deserving of wholeâ€"hearted public support in their anniual appeal for funds. The advantages of a wellâ€" directed Scout organization in any town are manifold and in this respect Timmins is exceedingly fortunate. Boys who are members of Scout troops ar taught to be honest, self reliant and helpful to others, which is a big step in the making of the highest type of Canadian citizen. Help the Scouts in their work. Buy at least one apple on Saturday. Any surplus earned above the reâ€" quirements for registration fees will be used and administered in such a way that all groups will share in its beneâ€" fits. This may take the form,. of aeâ€" veloping the camp site, providing prizes for the annual hobby show or for jJamâ€" boree or other expenses.
