PAGE TEN "THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, MARCH 185, 1947 Today's Short Story SLEEPING RIGHT PEACEFULLY By Matthew F. Christopher R TWO DAYS now, Hank A Sawyers had been seeing red. {The Mullins kids and the Stone kids and half of the riff-raff in town had been coming up eve- 'nings and ice-skating on the fro- zen pond that nature had chosen to Es some fifty-feet from his farm house. The fact that the creek. that formed the pond had been there first had never seemed ' to oceur to Hank. | He came in this cold, bleak night hugging an arm-load of slab wood he had gotten from the shed, and drop it unceremo- into the almost-empty bin bel the antequated-looking cdok stove. The ground outside was covered with a thick crust of white snow, and Hank's footprints ; were easily visible in it. Mabel, Hank's gaunt, tree-shaped wife, "who wasn't half as irascible as ' she looked, shut the door quickly behind him, "Hear em?" Hank exploded suddenly. "They're out there agin. The whole dang-blasted bunch of " : 7; "Yah," Mabel said tonelessly, shivering from the cold that had come into the warm kitchen. Hank scrubbed off the dirt and small chunks of bark that had coem off the wood onto his coat sleeves, rubbed his cold, gnarled fingers over the hot stove, "Holl- erin' an' yellin' like a bunch of hoolingans!" he said. "An' 'til mid- night, mind ye? Every night! I ain't gonna stand for any more of it, I tell ye. I ain't!" "What you going to do?" Mabel asked softly. "Tell 'em to stop?" A thin smirk came over Hank's wizened features, and for a second #t seemed that his leathery skin might crack. 'Talkin' would only make it that much worse, I'm nha fix 'em proper. Let 'em ave all the fun they want to- night, but tomorrow night they won't be able to do nuthin' but swim out there -- and it's mighty dang cold wearin' bahtin' suits in this kind of weather!" The next afternoon, right after dinner, Hank started the tractor and drove it out of the barn. Hank grinned at the deep cuts the big wheels' steel "lugs made into the . thick ice that filled the ruts out- side. He happened to glance to- ward the house as he drove past it towards the pond, and saw Ma- bel's gaunt face at the-half-frost- ed window. From her placid ex- pression he could not tell whether she approved of his idea or not. Anyway, he didn't give a hang. He wanted rest. To get rest he needed quiet, and this was the best way he knew how to get It. When Hank reached the ice- pond, he could see the imprints of shoes surrounding the place. Even on the other side of the creek, which was owned by Mapes Red- | field, the town constable, were vi- sible the marks of the hilarious horde. In spite of liking to stick up signs on every spect of land + "What you going to do? Mabel asked. "Tell em to stop?" he owned, Ma had plenty cof friends. He lived a good mile away, didn't care a hoot how much noise-making the kids did. He was reserved-and easy-going} too much so for the constable sort, a lot of people said. Hank looked at the ice-pond once more. Smooth as glass it was, except for the white streaks made by the skates. He saw a place where a figure-8 was carved in the ice, and scoffed. Dang riff- raff! he thought. Then he drove the heavy, ton-weight tractor slowly, carefully onto the ice. Presently, the front, steel wheels crashed through and "./a- ter splashed onto the Ice. Hank gunned the motor. The big, rear wheels snarled and bit into the hard earth beneath the snow. The tractor crawled forward. But about a third of the way across, the ice was nearly up to the mo- tor. Hank swore; he had thought surely he could have gone straight across 'the pond without a hitch, Well, there was more than one way to skin a cat. He backed the tractor up onto land again, drove it to the right end of the pond where the water ran shallower. He drove to the middle, the small and big wheels of the tractor cutting into the ice then twisted the steering gear and headed for the center of = the nd. Hank grunted a curse. He "hadn't figured on all this time and trouble. stopping, now. When those kids came tonight -- He wished he could be hiding nearby to ste their surprised faces. He'd 'laugh like he had never laughed before, He drove the tractor into the jce-pond from all sides, and when he was finished it was really a mess. There was hardly a spot where a kid could even stand on, let alone skate. A triumphant sat- isfaction, a great freedom, rested in old Hank Sawyers' being as he drove the tractor back to the barn. He wouldn't wait tonight for Mabel to quit her knitting at nine o'clock. He'd hit the hay early, and sleep to his heart's con- tent -- without a bit of annoyance from the outside. A sound awoke him. He looked aside. It was too dark to see Ma- bel, but he could hear her breath- ing. Then, sure enough, a knock sounded loud and insistent on the back door. He cursed, pulled on the light cord and slip) on his clothes and shoes, and headed for the kit chen. He turned on the kitchen light, wondering who could be evil-minded enough to wake him up from this first good sleep he's had in weeks. He unlocked the door. A blast of 'cold air came into the warm kitchen as he opened it. The first face he saw was Mapes Redfield's, the constable, The other faces -- there must have been at least twenty of them -- were the faces of the kids of Pine- ville, There was the same expres- sion on them all. They looked like a bunch of young pups ready to rip somebody apart. "Why-uh-Mapes," Old Hank started to say, "What's the mean- ing of this?" The constable's face lacked emotion. Perhaps the freezing air had something to do with it. But his dark eyes were alive and exe pressive. "Hank," Mapes said quietly, "you're under arrest." But there was no DON HOULDEN SCOUTER'S CLUB d forty d the Headquarters down-town last Monday night at the monthly Scouter's Club meeting. In the chair were the leaders of the 3rd Oshawa Group, The mee started off to a lively start with mention of the Band by Jim Carey. Various ingenious ways 22 y group, further infor week ago--here goes: We had geand howl and Cub Prayer and a story based on the Going Up ceremony. This was followed by a game by Dorothy Glover. The Pack then went over to the Scout meeting and sent Senior Sixers War- ren Miller and Bert Hutcheon in the Troop, which is under the able direc- of Seoutmaster Crawford and as- ome. 'edn: y we had Grand Howl led by Ray Fowler followed by a wild game, Instruction period was success- ul for some boys. Allan Reading passed Cleanliness and was invested as a first star Cub. Jack Brown passed Observa- tion and Ray ler passed his Ar- tist"s Badge, Ronald Tilling passed ult and Kingley Taylor was p with his der's stripe, (We were visited by Lorraine Brooks who is deciding whether or not to be an assistant leader). More games were played and a few Singssongs were enjoyed before closing ith Grand Howl led by John Hodgson and Cub Prayer. Till next 1st PACK "A" SECTION George McKnight of the Silver Six opened the meeting with Grand Howl. ela and Bagheera took Inspection while Kaa was taking attendance, Ake- la taught the boys a new game called "Baloo Tennis" which ended with the Cubs piled in a corner and the busting of the balloon by the Cub Instructor. Stan and Kaa led two steam-off games and Sixer Billy Sutton taught the boys a rousing game, During Flower, Akela presented Bobby Sutton with his first year service star, The meeting closed with Grand Howl, The Lord's Prayer, God Save The King, and a reminder to do a good turn to somebody everyday, KAA, 6th OSHAWA SCOUT TROOP Well gang, here we go for this first time! The meeting was opened with ASM. Taylor breaking the flag. In- week-- a committee comprised of Mr. Bate- man, Jimmy Sutton, Stan Weeks, and Jim Carey were to delve deep into pa matters, r. Knight opened a discussion on totem poles for Camp Samac, and said that names for the cabins, preferably of Indian origin would be appreciated, along with their meaning. r. Rigg followed this us with a warn that Mr, Knight or himself should be in- formed as to the groups moving into the camp at any time. All this was followed by a burst of anger from one of the better known cubleaders about the conducting of Scouter meetings. This was followed by Claire Stoneberg's offer on behalf of we Cubmasters (Wh I'm sticking my neck way out now) that we would entertain the Scouters in the Easter holidays. This was followed in turn by a definition of a cubleader"s uniform, and I would like to say right here that if I have got to wear skirts it's » kilt or nothing! The meeting ended with fi and some fine eats prepared 14th Group. 8th OSHAWA WOLF CUB PACK The meeting opened with everyone almost present, Akela welcomed Mr, Knight who was visiting us that night, along with Akela Dixson from the 6th Oshawa. Following Grand Howl Baloo, Whitehood and Rikki inspected all our sixes, while Raksha counted the dues. Baloo then followed this part of ous meeting with a real wild game. Akela then sent us to our respective rest corners for tests, and all the Old Wolves took up some sort of test work with us. . Mr. Knight then took us in a very interesting game, This was followed by the forming of the Council Oircle by Akela and the telling of a sort of spooky story by Mr. Knight. Raksha and RIKKI led us in "Where, oh where is sweet little Susy". Whitehood led us in "Dinah" and this was followed by Baloo and Akela Dixson leading us in "I met an engine on the hill." Akela took us in our old favorite "The Redmen", and this ended the meeting. Aekal sald something about a mys- terious party we're to have if we're ve! good. I wonder what kind of mystery this is going to be, anyhow? And Akela was telling Bobby Hooper about a big hike, that is to be held at Easter, Let's ask Akeld next week ; GLI Sth OSHAWA PORT SECTION All aboard for another weekly cruise with the Eighth Port, folks. Something happened to our radio set during the last month or so, but it's working okay now, You can expect reports ot -down y the pecti went off with a pretty poor show of uniforms, How about everyone coming to Scouts in full uniform next week? A game called the "Kangaroo Relay" was run with the Bullddg Pa- trol being the winners. By the way, the Bulldog Patrol have broken ahead, in this month's Patrol competition. Ine struction period was held with several tests being passed. Keep up the good work fellows! Well! Well! What's this I hear about knots? How about it, fellows? Let's brush up on them in case we have A = Speaking of visitors we might have them call in on us any night now. Oswald tells me that the Patrols are going on more hikes now. Talking about hikes, the Bulldog Patrol went on one last Saturday ana was" offered a ride home in the 7th Oshawa Truck or shall I say thelr (word deleted by Ed.) Lizzy.

P.8.--We're glad to see that the Re- gistration is on its way now. WALD, O08 Ath OSHAWA SCOUT NEWS Some .of the boys have evidently been doing some polishing up as the individual knot champ race proved. It was a gem. The finals saw the champ, Roy Larmer, with contenders Ted Old- field, Harvey Crouch, and Bill Ep- worth lined up, all determined to pinch the shield off Larmer, and Lar- mer equally determined they shouldn't, The atmosphere became charged with drama and the crowd rose to a ter- rific pitch of excitement as Epworth, Oldfield and Larmer peeled off first in that order, each trying to get two out of three firsts before the other fellow and cop the shield. With the crowa jabbering nineteen to the dozen, and | 8.M. then gave a few explanations on after stopping to quell fourteen fights amongst supporters in the audience, | Larmer flashed down the 38 feet and | whipped off the flve knots in a total | time of seventeen seconds to win the | shield and leave the crowd staggered | amazed, while Harvey 'Croach was | heard to mutter, "What a revolting | development this is!"

Nosey heard that he Toothsome Morsel -" Judith Ann Spiers, Newark, N.J., is busily plying her toothbrush here.- There is plenty of work for the brush, too, for Judith Ann sports no less than 20 teeth, al- though she is but one year old.

Some baby! was quite annoyed at being awakened by a number of boys to pass tests. Ted Maldman and Russ Flutter were down again teaching the 'intricacies' of the Knotter's Badge and the mys- terles of First Ald to various patrols. The studious attitude of the Troop as a whole was a joy to behold, but two or three boys were indulging in queer larks, and making themselves most ob- jectionable during the evening, Nosey gives fair warning! Be Scouts or watch out for unfavourable publicity. Nosey welcomes Allan Crandall into the ranks of the Wolf Patrol and the Fighting Fourth. Good Scouting, Allan! The bearded wondee, chin whickers Jack Blackburn, was missing from the fold, and Nosey hears that he sent down to the S.M. to say he was sick. Maybe that beard is causing a drain on his system, Danny Kemp and Sunny Hann were both absent last night and Nosey would like to know why they didn't phone their P.L. or the SM, After patrol corners, a game of 'dodge ball' and then a game of 'bang the tall' was endulged in with savage | ruthlessness and left most of the crowd (particularly Lyle Blair) looking pretty awful and very hot and bothered. The test work--read out the list of Scouts not having passed a test this month, and remjnded them that they had only one week left to do this, and then they would be suspended from Troop activities until the test was passed. Pretty drastic, what? But necessary for loafers. Ron Forde passed a sample knife around and offered them very cheap to trodp members, Somebody grinned a nasty, horrid grin and asked if an axe was glven away free with it. The meeting was brought to a close with a terrible row as everyone en- gaged in a game of British Bulldog with an abandon horrible to contem- plate with Ron Forde as the Bulldog and with the 8.M. gazing with despair on the demonstration. After prayers, Nosey and the gang went home to make necessary repairs. BANQUET MARCH 26, 1047. THINE, NOSEY, (and the nose knows), 8th STARBOARD TROOP After extracting ourselves from the wreckage created when the ambitious Cubs of "A" Pack came tumbling down the stairs, we came up to start the meeting with the usual flagbreak. Inspection was held, and puh-leeze fellows, come up with some Scout staves. "Muskrats" showed up with a nice patrol box. he floor, we had Coming out on t re games of "Bull in the Ring" and "Ankle Fight" and then crawled back to our corners for a study period. This was followed by a game of "Ship in the Fog." Kim's game was held, and as far as Yous truly knows, results were favour- able, We were called into the horseshoe for announcements, Muskrats were duty patrol, but Mr. Harris and Tr. Philips kindly 'volunteered' to do it for them, ~ While in the horseshoe we had a game' of "Buzz" and Big Bob Clayton showed that he had brains (and 1 use that word mildly) by winning for the 11s. All ugh the the mysterious letters T.P, ap- earing all over the floor, wal ches, These letters stood for Ti Play which was the subject of S.M, Doug Wales lecture which he gave to us at the end of the meeting. The acting PL, of the Muskrats Patrol lowered - flag, and Pravers following, this meeting came a close. Patrol competition stands thusly: Beavers 251; Muskrats 193; Otters 180; Seagulls 170%. Come on fellows, we can't let the Beavers win! 10 Points to anyone who can find anything about the Union Jack that doesn't appear in "Tenderfoot to King's out." NOTICE To all members of the Muskrats Pa- trol who were not there at this week's meeting, namely--Baldy Harrell, Chuck Dewhurst, and Jack Carter; the mem- bers who were there performed excel- lently. Please be there next week, es- pecially "Baldy". I guess that's all for this week, and just remember: Nothing is impossible. Well' I'll close this masterpiece of misinformation, so until next week--- Wait! On behalf of the Scouts and Cubs and Rovers in both troops and packs and in the crew, I would like to thank all the ladies of the Mother's Auxiliary who so generously gave us the fine dinner last nesday, . AQUARAT. 5th OSHAWA SCOUT MEETING This week nearly the entire Troop was out and everyone learned some- thing (I hope}). After the announce- ments and t| collecting of the dues, the First Aid Class retired downstairs for another boney session. Upstairs, the remainder of the Troop practised signalling, knots and First Ald. It was not long before the classes broke up, and with the entire Troop upstairs, there was a snappy game and the clos- ing exercises after which all, except the duty patrol, went home to listen to "Fibber McGee and Molly", BUSTER. 7th OSHAWA NEWS AND VIEWS Evenin' folks! How are you all? That's good! Ah yes, this is as usual your old friend and reporter, Snoopy, coming to you at any time that you have the misfortune to read this column. This may be kind of dry this week, but--Oh well!--look who 1s writ- ing this column, Well, here's our meeting of last Fri- day. Our meeting opened at 7:30 or there- abouts with flag-break and Prayers. Glen Hagerman was awarded his Car- penter's and Friend to Animal Badge, while Jim Ashby was presented with his Patrol Leader's Second stripe. Nice going! We next headed for our corners to collect dues and hold inspection. Around 7:50 (we were behind schedule) we went out onto the floor for a game, Even I don't know what it was! Next, we held several Knot relays-- the flist ordinary; the second--with a bean bag in one hand, and the thira with one hand on hip. Some fun! At 8:10 we made a dash for our pa- trol corners for patrol periods. At 8:33 we got ready for a Quiz game. At 8:50 we decided to clean up our Patrol corners and assembled for a council circle, At 9:05 we closed with flag- down and prayers. Say, have you heard why Richard didn't open the door? I'm warning you --thls may be my last speech, Well, here's the answer. Dick didn't want to open the door beceuse he was a Harvard man and there was a Yale lock on the door. (That's a joke, son, Chuckle!) For the prizes for that Quiz, the S.M. gave away sticks of gum. Bye now, BNOOPY. 3rd OSHAWA SCOUT TROOP The weekly meeting of the Third Oshawa Scout Troop was held on Tuesday, March 11, 1947, The meeting the doings at the weekly m up on Hillcroft Street. (Whether you like is or-mot). After: flag break, Duncan Brodie and Graemhe Jack were invested as temger- foot Scouts at our usual imprpésive camp-fire investitures (sometimes we're st dest as Nosey). Gooa Hank looked at Mapes a d, then broke out in a loud laugh. "Ho-ho, Mapes! What for? Bro- kin' up that ice so"s that bunch of yellin' hooligans can't skate any more, an' make all that racket so's I cn't have my sleep? You can't 'rest me for that. That creek's on my propitty. Get on home, Mapes. I've been sleepin' right peacefully the first time in weeks--" A slow grin came over the half- frozen -featurdes of the constable. "I ain't arresting you for brokin' mp the ice, Hank. I'm arresting you for trespassing on my prop- erty. You could have seen those signs I've posted just a: clear as I saw the marks of your tractor." Sk stared speechlessly at "Come on, Hank. Get into some wan toothes, And tell Mabel you' sleeping right peacefull, in jail for the next ten days." y (Copyright) 40 Freight Cars / Careen Wildly, No One Hurt Toronto, March 15--(CP) -- Sev- eral freight care were derailed but no one was injured yesterday when 40 cars broke loose from a Canadian Pacific Railway freight train tra- velling through North Toronto yards, The runaway cars rolled down a grade and crashed into a double-header freight train, Freak Puppy Lives 24 Hours Winnipeg, March 15--(CP)--The canine world had a freak addition yesterday.

LEGGETTE PHONE 3744W1 FOR KELVINATOR SALES & SERVICE Domestic & Commercial as Scouting, Dunk and Graeme! Inspection dragged a bit, but just as soon as the last patrol had been discussed, somebody sald something about a game, and the next thing we knew, everyone was diving on the centre of the floor and grabbing wildly for little bits of paper. It is sald that ASM. Gord Witterick was responsible for this. (Don't take 'those hospital bills too seriously Gord.) Corner period followed, In which we | noticed that a lot of little scouts were running around reading naps, waving signalling flags, and generally working end. Oh! I almost forgot!

After Patrol Leader Earl Henry had lowered the flag the meeting ended with the repeating of the Lord's Pray- er, JERRY WINTER'S JOURNAL Before we get on with the regular Scout News we are going to touch lightly on our favourite subject. You uessed it "A HALL FOR THE Before we give you our opinion, here is what one of our Cub Leaders thinks about it, Mrs, Gresnik Akela of "A" Pack says: "From a Cubmaster's point of view, I think a hall for Cubs and Scouts would have many advantages and benefits to our Pack, We are not able to play lots of good games that Cubs really enjoy, because of the ce- ment floor where we hold our pres. ent meetings and also the floor is too small for many other games, Also there is not much that can be done in the way of jungle atmosphere as far as pictures go. ere just isn't any place tw hang them. If, we did have a place of our own, a lot of the jungle at- mosphere could be made in a perman- ent and pleasing manner. Then too, a Cub and Scout Hall means some- thing special to a Cub and Scout be- cause the school we now meet in oan only be used at special times and the boys all see five days a week and six hours a day." Well that's what one of our leaders thinks about a new hall, This opinion is the same among all the leaders in both Cub Packs and the Scout Troop. We do need a hallt Well what are we going to do about it?. Our Group Committee is holding a meeting very shortly and the main topic will be the plans for a new hall. It 1s up to the group w but some money-raising ideas hall is for you so you must do share if we are to 0g the First, for Better Scouting in West mount." Because of the larg was the n Pp.
