Timmins Public LibralTy _ To Obtain Scouting Books 'I‘h:pmb_thn efforts of Mr. W. _/ P. Lawry, President of the Local Associaâ€" tion, and the coâ€"operation of Timmins Public Library officials, it has been announced that a number of books on Scouting and Cubbing are being obâ€" tained. and will be made available to the public in the very near future. In addition to "Scouting for Boys" and "Rovering to Success," which have been on hand for some time, the library will have bocks on knotting, signalling, patâ€" rol leadership, troop leadership, general Cubbing and Rovering. These books will be filling a longâ€"felt need on the part of many, and it is expected ithat there will be a big demand for these books from the Cubs, Scouts, leaders and genâ€" eral public. Next week we hope to be able to give you the full list of books available at the litrary on Scouting, and we know that all will put them to the best use.

The boys in planning their programmes are anxiou; to convey some idea of the activities that keep them busy throughout year after year, and those attending any of the meetings will get scme idea of why the Scout movement has become known as the leading youth movement in the world today. ‘There will be a meeting of all Scout leaders n the basement of St. Anthonv‘s A mecting of the committee this week will be making definite plans concernâ€" ing the social event for all friends of Scouting, and their decisions will be A number of Timmins‘ leading citâ€" izens have expressed their willingness to give whort addresses over the air on their conceptions of and reactions to the Boy Scout movement.

Special serâ€" vices are being arranged, beginning at 930, and the general public is being invited to attend. Several of the local clergymen will be taking part in these services, and an opoortunity will be given every boy‘ to renew the solemn promise he makes on entering the movemerit.

Bobbie was made welcome by the boys, and under the guidance of | the leaders became familiar with soms _of the ways ‘and laws| of Cubbing. Bobâ€" bie is hard at work on the Tenderpad tests and all look forward to him being h\ a real firstâ€"rate Cub. It was announced | V that the Brown Six, after winning the competition for three months straight, had bowed to the Whites in competiâ€" tion for the month of January. Th Whites, under the leadership of Roy Hobbs, worked hard for the honour and deserve lots of credit. We are wonderâ€"| ing if the Browns will make a comeâ€"| back this month, or whether one of the: other Sixes will show that they are not going to be left out of the pxctme; either. Competition is based on atâ€"| T tendance, insipection, cleanliness, game»' T and general behavior. The highlight of | A the meeting was the Red Mower, where‘ the Cubs gather to sing songs, tell mle)f and play games.

Ke it 6 *A M ’flibbâ€"lvâ€"l Beavers Again Win 6th Troop Competition Coming from behind during the last few meetings, the Beavers of the Sixth Timimins Troop again won the Troop competition which ended at the close of January. To give an idea of the closeness of the competition, the other patrols were not more than six points behind at the finish. The Beavers, under Patrol Leader Neil Ellis, were congratulated for their fine efforts. Just to show that they don‘t intend to relinquish the Honour Patrol privâ€" lleges, it is rumored that stpecial patrol meetings are being inaugurated this week for the purpose of keeping all the boys on their toes, as well as for having a good time. The meeting this week will probably be at the home of the Patrol Leader. Somehow we feel that it won‘t be long until the other patrols will be following suit. At the mseeting of the Trcop last week David Fowler passed the Second Class signalling tests and is well on the way to winning the Second Class Badge. Al the Scouts had been out to the bush and cut and preâ€" pared Scout staffs, and they spent time in showing and ‘being shown I the many usfes of these valuable pieces of equipment, Carl Dukeshire was welâ€". comed into the Troop as a recruit, comâ€" ! ing up from the Fifth Timmins Cub | l | Pack, and Carl is already well on the, way to completing the Tenderfoot! * Wolft Cub Allâ€"Stars Drop Game to S.P.P.8., Another exciting game of hockey was played last Saturday between the allâ€" star team of Cubs of Packs 4A, 4B, 8BA and 8B, and the South Porcupine Pubâ€" lic School Intermediate team. The game was an excellent one to watch, with every player producing many thrills and the odd spill, too. The final score was South Porcupine 4, Cubs 3. The game was played at the South Porcupine Arena. Scoring for the Cub team were H. Lamarche, G. Labelle and J. Bergeron. Mr. Ship, South Porcupine school teacher, expressed his keen apâ€" preciation of the fine sportsmanlike way the Cubs played the game, not a single penalty being handed out, and asked that the teams meet again as soon as possible, The Cub Allâ€"Stars were: goal, C. Romain: G. Bisâ€" son, R. Germain; centre, J. Bergeron; wings, H. Lamarche, G. Labelle; subs, C. Kelly, R. Canie, M. Kelly, A. Delâ€" Guidice G, St. Jacques, A. Carle. both teams deserve the highest praise for the way the game was played, and we hope thai there will be many more like it.
