The Training Comâ€" mittee reported that steps are being taken *o hold a leaders‘ training course, possibly noxt month, and under the chairmanshipâ€" of Mr. S. A. Caldbick, the Committee is making final plans. It was pointed out that there willprobâ€" ably be openings on the course for a number of interested persons not now connected with any group. From time to time persons come forward and suggest that they would like to become active in Scouting, but that they lack what they feel to be the necessary training. It is hoped that any such persons will take advantage of this course, as the need for additional leaders is keeniy felt these days, particularly with many mandâ€" | of those now active leaving for the ut for ely to armed forces. Their places must be filled by persons who arse anxious to do Boy itheir part in the training of boys and soliq | future citizens, and by contacting anyâ€" ) nec. | one connected with the Local ‘Associaâ€" ut has }tion opportunities will be presented. in the | The Camping Committee reported that 12 new for HC OM t Third Troop QOperated Christmas | Toy Shop | _ This year, with almost three times | the number of iScouts in the Troop, | it was pessible for the Third Timmins Troop to run their annual toy reâ€" pair shon on a much larger â€" scale than in the past. The boys worked in shifts each afternoon and evening under the direction of_their Scoutâ€" | master, Father Callaghan. Boys who have been working on their Carpenter Badge during the winter were distribâ€" uted among the Gifferent shifts in ord°r that all would be able to handle 'the repairs, involving considerable woodwork. Toys were collected through the school and also by the individual Scouts. A total of well over 100 toys were repaired, painted and distributed by the Troop. As the boys are much more proficient with a saw, hammer and paint brush than with a needle, the aid of the senior sewâ€" ing class was secured to repair dolls ciothing, etc. The boys are confident that by getting an earlier start next year it will be possible to handle alâ€"â€" most double this vear‘s work. The Scouts wish to thank all those who contributed towards this good work in any way, and helped to make their efforts aâ€"success. l | | | 1 1 | vyi~tâ€" Picaidolit Brunet, Commissioner Cousineau and DS.M.

President Lawry was authorized by the meeting to name a committse to act in connection with organizing the Disâ€" trict for B. P. Boy Scout Week, to be observed between February 21 and 27. The Committee will be made up of President Lawry, DC. S. A.

Gallagher as District Cubâ€"master, Mrs. Gallagher has had considerable experience in this line, and will be able to offer real assistance to other lead=â€" ers in the training of Cubs. Mrs. Galâ€" lagher thanked the officers and leadâ€" ers for the confidence they displayed in her ability, and asked for the COâ€" opgEration of all in the interests of the boys. District Commissioner Caldbick preâ€" sented Gilwell Wood Badges to Akela Jack Webb, now in the Armed Forces, and to D.S.M.N.

Regâ€" ular meetings are also being held and the bovs are hard at work with their signalling tests. These packs have a number of new leaders and they have been showing a very keen interest in the welfare of the boys. They have expressed the desire to visit other Packs, particularly those with exâ€" | perienced leaders, with a view to learning more of the Cub programme. May we point out that all Pack and Troop meetings are open to the visâ€" its of other leaders, and we know they will be welcomed. | With 4, 8A and 8B Packs At this time of year when a puck and hockey stick means so much in the life of the average boy, the ‘Cubs are not missing out on any of the fun. Packs 4, 8A and 8B, which all meet at St. Anthony‘s Church, have formed their own league and quite a number of games have already hbeen paid. Pack 8B have won three games and tied one, and are leading with a total of seven points. Pack 4 are closely behind with four points. earn.â€" First Pack Continues Fine Work on Tests With tess work featuring the meetâ€" ings, the First Timmins Pack â€" is starting the year with some very interesting meetings. Last week the Cubs concentrated on compass iand signalling, and are really making fine progress. Games: are being used to teach the bovs alertness and quick thinking, and each week new ones are introduced and enjoyed by the boys. "Kelly Says," a game always popular with the bovs, was featured at the last meeting. The evening closed with the Grand Howl and the singing of the National Anthem. In the place of the regular meetâ€" ing last December 21, the Third Troop staged their annual Christmas party. Gues‘ts of the evening were Scouters Basciano and Lucciantonio of the Fifth Troop. Quite a number of Scout games were played, with the Bat Patrol coming out with the greatâ€" eéest number o‘ points in all fields.

As the Troop is famous for the quantities of grocâ€" eries it can dispose of, the Department had a hard time filling the interior of some of the Troon. Motion pictures of Scout camn and the Scout parade of last spring, along with several carâ€" toons, rounded out an evening of real fun, and the boys eagerly look forâ€" ward to the next event of that nature. very keen about that their winning streak . and will be doing their very prove this in the weeks ahead. 18 the progress charts have the lead. ‘ouft the other Sixes are Â¥ wA : ;m on iitin: sns . i been producing resul‘s in the Pack.

It was decided that monthly meetings of the Counâ€" cil will be held in future, the first. being on January 11 at the home of: Akela Gallagher, and this should reâ€": sult in the boys taking an even more active interest in the running of the Pack. | Third Troop Holds Enjoyable Party Hockey Competition' Keen â€"â€"D.S.
