For many years now. the Toronto Falr, or to use itd mbre euphonious: name, the "Canadian National Exhibi- tion," has been the mecca of Boy Scouts from all parts of Ontario, one day always being set apart by the management as Boy Scouts' Day. This year Boy Scouts' Day will be Batur- day, September 3rd, right in tho mid. dle of the Exhibition season when everything will be at its best. Local Committees at Toronto are now work- ing hard getting everything in shape for this big day and als®for other fea- tures prior to it and following it, all of which have to do with the Scouts, One of the special features this year will be a Model Camp for about 600 Scouts. Troops from outside Toronto will be accommodated in this camp without charge except for food, and that they may arrange for to suit their own desires. Tents, blankets, ground sheets, cooking flies, cooking | utensils, stoves, etc., will be there at their disposal, and epecial 'arrange ments are being made for the supply of the ingredients of their meals at the lowest possible price, The boys attending the model camp will have a special programme of ac- tivities for them every day, including both regreational and educational fea- tures. Bach afternoon there will be a series of Boy Scout and athletic com- petitions of varfous kinds on a parade ground which is being set aside for their own use. And each evening the campers will form up and parade through a portion of the Exhibition Grounds and adjacent sections of the! city. On the rally day itself, Toronto Scouts will turn out over two thous- and strong to greet their brother Scouts from outlying sections of the province, and it is assured that they will all have one great big, happy day of it. Luncheon on rally day will be provided for both visiting and Toronto troops by the Provincial Councn, Another special concession this year is that every registered Boy Scout pre- senting himself at the Exhibition gates in uniform and wearing the Boy Scout "Ontario Official Badge," will be permitted to pass through the turn- stiles without payment of fee or other formality. Those Exhibition folk sure | do think a great deal of the Scouts. ! And, if you could hear Managing Di- | rector John G. Kent, they have every reason to be, For haven't the Scouts in former years proven absolutely in. valuable to the Fair officials by locat- | ing lost children, acting ag guides for visitors, staffing the big grand stands with ushers, attending to emergency] {cases often long before calls could be put through to the'regular ambulance companies? "When in Doubt Ask a Scout" has become one of 'the slogans "| of visitors to the big Fair, and it is very seldom that Mr. Scout has had to disappoint those who would have his help. 7. # The Sunday following Rally Day will be marked by a monster "Scouts' i Own" service of Toronto Scouts and of visiting "Beouts who remain over It will probably take place on the University 'Campus or in : Convocation Hall, in' Queen's Park, mre fs Tommy's Howler.
