Much has been accomâ€" plished along this line, but an even closer contact with parents will make possible far greater results, Leaders of the nation today tell us that youth training is one of the most important activities of the times, and the future of our coun‘ry and the world depends on the youth of today and the training they are privileged to receive. While we are all doing our bi} to win the war and save our country, let us not forget that the building un of, the country afâ€" ter the ravages of war have taken their toll is just as imnortant. Plan to attend the Annual Mesting cf the Local Boy Scouts Association, Town Hall, Monday, October 26, to help and encourage the fine work that is being done.

INOT.â€"H F B U S H TN THE SA W MILLS 1€ it some length th= Municipal _ that the an«â€" lation be held Phone 3200 Phone 175 10 | aAccomâ€" l1 be reâ€" ins made the resolution _ received from the Scoouters Club covering annual mm-l of paying the registration fees of the boys, and that this year some assistance from the proceeds of Apple Day would be appreciated. It was pointed out that the registration fees should be paid from the money received directly from the Scout as this was his means of doâ€" ing something concrete in the promoâ€" tion and growth of the movement. The fee amounts to fifty cents per year, or less than one cent a week, and any boy who is receiving the benefits of Scoutâ€" ing is willing to give this to help others to enjoy the same privilege, This pracâ€" tice is to be put in force immediately by all Groups, so that next year they will be able to meet this obligation. However, the registration date is here and it woud not be fair to ask any boy to pay fifty cents on such short notice. It was therefore decided that assistâ€" ance would be given Groups from the proceeds of Apole Day. The amounts to be allotted have not yet been annouced, but they will undoubtedly have some bearing on the number of boys that worked on Apple Day. FPurther details cannot be given until all registration papers ahve been received by the Asâ€" sociation, so let‘s get them in right aâ€" way. The Executive |Committee also decided that these papers should be ;turned over to the District Scoutmaster, as has been the practice other years. Please save time by making sure they are all complete before forwarding them [ 1 1 More Apple Day Figures On Uptown District Remembering the keenness of the teams and, the competitive spirit so apâ€" parent in the boys selling apples in the business section of town last Apple Day sScouter Wright has released the folâ€" lowing figures for the information of the boys. Each team carried the same money bag throughout the day , and these were all numbered, so that we are able to give the exact amount colâ€" lected by each team along with the number of apples sold: Bag No. Teéam 10 11 12 13 14 16 17 100 120 80 160 40 200 100 A0.JIL 5.99 4.26 9.80 3 A8 16.83 6 42 ‘Team No. 3, Scout Roger Chevrifils and Cub Junior Bergeron, sold the greatest number of apples and turned in the most money. These boys deserve all the praise possible because every team did aÂ¥real fine job and it required some real sticktoitiveness to come out on top. Many of the teams worked steadily from the minute of opening 10 11 12 13 14 16 17. *‘ Rag No hy F5 o obnd $2% Scout Cub Roger Guillemette Lou Jeffries Henry Hutt Roger Venne Roger Chevrifils Junior Bergeren Orval Brocher J.

Big Doings Reported By â€"_â€" Timmins Pack COne of the newsiest reports we have had the pleasure of receiving for some time comes from the Second Timmins Pack Pirst and foremost was the presâ€" entation made last week of a very lovâ€" ely traveling kit to Akela Jack Webb, who is leaving shortly to join the Air Force. Jack was taken completely by surprise and no doubt wondered wildly what might be in the huge parcel as it was presented. Sitting down on the filoor, with the Pack gathered around he proceeded to open the package. Wrapâ€" ping after wravning, box after box, were remved but it couldn‘t have b2en much more than ten minutes before the handsome gift was revealed. The difâ€" ficult part of really expressing his deep feelings was well taken care of by the Akela, ard we know that whersver he goes ‘he will carry his travelling kit and the fondest of memories of his Cubs and assistant leaders. During the evâ€" ening a numker of tests were passed and the following badge awards ware announced: Irving Atkins, Homecraft House Orderly, Toymaker; Donald BRlack, Artist; Victor Pricbe, Swimmer, Artist, Homecraft; Donald Blackman, Swimmer. |Congratulations to these Cubs, and may you win many more! Another highlight of the meeting was jes C You can bring your hogs to market weight in five months with ‘"‘Miracle‘"‘ Hog Feedsâ€"saving two months feed and care. And these hogs grade higher than with ordinary feeds. More pigs per litter. And more of the pigs reach maturity with these feeds in the dotted bags. This has been proved by rigid tests on farms. aver he kit and s Cubs the evâ€" ARIO Group Committee are to be invited and sorse o! the Sevem‘th Troop, have anâ€" ounced that they wil award a prize for the best good turn done by a Scout of their Troop every month. Records of the good turns done will be turned in to the Scoutmaster weekly, and the Group Committee will decide the winâ€" ners. Patrol competition is very keen, with the Eagle Patrol holding a slight edge over the others at the present time. The other patrols, however, claim "there will be some changeos claalit madd There was cause for a big celebration in the dens of the Sixth Timmins Pack recently as the Cubs welcomed two new leaders into the Pack. Wolf Cubs are always eager for training in the ways cf the jungle, and their good fortune in securing mnot one, ‘but two, new leaders is being widely proclaimed by all. The leaders are Miss Hilda Ro who will be known to the boys as Baloo, and Miss Evelyn Knott, who becames Bagheera. They have already begun wi‘h their training of the Cubs, and big things are promiszed by the Sixth Pack. Fifteen new Chums were also welcomed by the boys, being Eldon Jefâ€" frey, James Simpson, Yvon Poulin Harâ€" ry Rakke,Billy Wilson, Beverley Dunâ€" das, Grant Dundas, Morris King, Pat Cox, Timmy Ryan, Hugh Smith, Arâ€" mand Martel, Roger Martel, and Donald Strong. These bovs are now well into their Tendervad work and all promise to make worthwhile Cubs. A number cf tests were vpased at the meeting last week. Donald Harrop passed skipping and bookâ€"balancing Darrell McLaughlin skipping and boardâ€"balancing:; Richard Nankervais, bookâ€"balancing; Lou Jefâ€" fnies, skipping: Jack Nichols, the Uhion Jack. A big Hallowe‘en pary; is being nlanned and the Sixth Scout Trsop are ;to be invited as their guests. New Sixer progress charts have been put into use. These charts picture a Cub climbing a ladder and as each test is passed ho goes a rung higher on the ladder. These char‘ts have aroused new interest in fnies, skippin Jack. A big and to be invited test work, and all are wondering who will be the first member of the Pack to reach the top of the ladder. Another new feature of the meeting will be competition for the Honour Glag. Bach week noints will be awarded for behayâ€" ior, attendance, games, inspecition, work on hobbies, and other activities. Points will be added for a period of one month. when the flag will be awarded the Six with the greatest number. This Six will hold the flag for one month, when a new winner will be decided. Since being late will lose poin‘ts for their Six, we can be pretty sure that all will be on tim> from now on. The programme has been drawn up by the Court of Honour and it promises to be ons of the best yet, with all the games and fun that go with such an event.. With such things looming in the near future the boys are still right in there when it comes to test work and instruction. Last wesek special instrucâ€" tion in life saving was continued, and the boys constructed a lifeâ€"saving net such as used by fire departments. Two new Scouts were invested during the evening, Dan Drummond of ithe Wolves and Edmond Drummond of the Lions taking the Scout Promise. New recruits welcomed were John Manrich, Angelo Fera Carmen Crocco and Jim Spadafore was present as a guest. The special first aid course under the direction of Mr. L. Bailey of the St. John‘s Ambuâ€" lance Brigade is making fine progress, and quite a few Ambulance Badges should be awarded as the result. Fifth Troop Now Ready For Hallowe‘en Party One of the big annual events of the year of the Fifth Timmins Troop, a Hallowe‘en party, is now fully prepared and the bovs are just awaiting the day. As the length of this column will inâ€" dicate activities in Scout and Cub cirâ€" cles are really stepping up. More and more boys are joining our Groups and taking a part in the fun, and ‘we hope they will all make real Cubs and Scouts The main thing is, Play the Game.
