Cubs roamed the jungle learning the trails and pitfall for which they would have to beon the watch while in camp. With the call for supper all else was soon forgotten, and the way that the supper disappeared was nothing short of miraculous. This little "task" taken care of, the Cubs retired to their lairs to prepare for the Red Flower. The Red Flower was lit by Akela Webb andl the opening ceremonies were conductâ€" ed by Akela Wright. With the setting | of the sun and midst the dancing flamâ€"| es of the camp fire a singâ€"song carried far out over the water. A highlight was the demonstration by each group of their abilitiee as actors. Four skits were presented, portraying a mother‘s ordinary day, some first aid, a singâ€" song, and a fishing trip without mothâ€" er‘s consent. Following the closing of the Red Flower all went off to bed, a good night‘s sleep» needed as there was a busy day ahead of them. All were up with the sunâ€"and some beforeâ€"ready for a hunt in the jungle| with Akela Wright. Upon returning to camp they found breakfast all ready for them, and the dishes were washed by the Cubs. Inspection of lairs folâ€" lowed, and a short service was conducâ€" | ted by Akela Wright. A quiet game of ball followed, then all went to the beach for a swim. That is, all but Basil and Weldon, and we hear they did their swimming in the boat, with water up to their knees.
