The new style of this very popular magazine is further enhanced by a serial type of story, and much more illustrations. "The advent of advertising in its pages is assisting in paying for any new ! feature that the boast. But the biggest credit goes to the 'fact that the Editors are trying to interest the older boy into contributing suggestions to make it better. Therefore, I think | that congratulations are in order to Messrs. Mortlock and Beers for a very good start. Now they will * have to keep this standard up. 8TH OSHAWA SEA SCOUT TROOP The meeting Thursday night was a pleasant one. The Troop, except for Patrol Leader George Westfall, who was: ill, was all present, and very industrious. The whole gang were tickled pink when Skip called the Troop to the alert. You shoul have heard that shot when all the feet came down together. Perfec- tion! Then, of course, inspection netted a better lot of points. It seems, however, that the Beavers want to lose, the way that some of their members are handing out points. What a dangerous thing to do, los- ing Bhs. When those new recruits in the Seals start, they really start to roll. Well, the Kim's Game that Skip threw at us was taken up 100 per cent by the Troop. Every Patrol did real well, and if this is a new way fo make points. let's have more games, just like (Nat.

And we also hope that the paper drive was a success, that you will all bring your registration in, and that next Thursday the Christmas Cards will all be in, and the or- ders will have been placed. AQUARAT GENERAL SPRY LEAVES It is with regret that we .take léave of Major-General Dan Spry, the Chief Executive Commissioner Scouting. General Spry did much to bring Canadian Scouting into a realm of pub- lic esteem and respect by some very harsh, but sensible measures, particularly in the stan- His progressive policies were aimed to "smarten" the Organiza- tion up, and present its member- ships with a series of goals at which to aim. The very success of his administration has been para- | lel to the success of the drive to- ward- these goals.. The respect that he was tendered | by all the ranks of the Movement, | and the evident energy and drive that he showed, proved to all that he was the man of the hour for Canadian Scouting. His promotion to Secretary of the International Byreau now places him.in a po- sition where the greatest of tact, of interest, and of understanding must be shown "to enstre solidar- ity. We think that Dan Spry can | do this job as well as he has handled his old one here. Our loss, is World Scouting's gain. CUBS 5A PACK On Monday, October 5th, the 5A Oshawa Cub Pack held their regular meeting in the basement of North Minster Church. _ We opened our meeting with Grand Howl, Prayers and Flag- break.
