Here are a few sug- gestions: First of all be ready to answer an estiorls that your Scouts might ask about the work, be able to give instructions and help, but do not spend all the period doing the talking yourself. Drill should be disregarded as far as possible as a patrol actl- vity, the Scoutr aster will see that the troop is not lacking in that, It is a very good idea to try and produce a better patrol spirit by an occasional appeal to the Scouts' loyalty. For this a com- petition of some sort is a good suggestion. Avoid acting out your own ideas, some of your Scouts may also possess ones fust as good, if not better than yours, P'. L.'s always keep a record of tire progress of each Scout in the Patrol and judge accordingly what should be the subject of discussion when the Patrol meets. Then again, let your second take part in the work of the Patrol. Arrange it so that those who have passed thelr tests will have time to help those who are find- ing the work a bit difficult. 'Ine Patrol Leader's time, when this is going on, may be occupied wits putting the patrol hooks in order, collecting dues, etc. Toy Shop Time Christmas is coming and Toy Shop time is here again.
