"We are living lives of ten- sions," he said, "when we may be building something worth- while." He pointed out that in a world in which communications are made easily, pressures build up which are almost too hard to bear. is SOCIETY NEEDS SOUL "In spite of the work of. doc- tors, psychiatrists and psycholo- gists we are breaking up faster than ever before," Mr. Connell said.

The speaker added that pills and potions do not help our problems but only complicate them. Mr. Connell said that 80 per cent of illnesses are caused through tensions and that ment- al and not physical relaxation is meeded nowadays. He told the audience that self- confidence and an ability to get some fun out of life meant a great deal. Mr, Connell also said that the tension and stress could be avoided by the avoid- ance of worrying problems and the admission of weaknesses. The speaker was introduced by Peter A.

Miles commented it was relatively small considering the accomplishments of the council and the expansion of its program, REGISTRATIONS UP Describing the year as very successful, President F. O. Pop- ham said there had been an in- crease in cub, scout and rover registrations. There had been a total increase in registrations of 227 over 1962. The boy camper days reached an all-time high of 43,782 days and all the main events of the year were out- standing. Mention was made by the president of the 623 Oshawa scouts who enjoyed the wild and rugged training of fun and ad- venture at the northern camp- site. On the international scene, Lennis Trotter of the 3rd Osh- awa and George Lakas of the 7th Oshawa represented Oshawa scouting at the llth world jam- boree in Marathon, Greece, New men must be attracted to leadership, Mr. Popham con- tinued. These men must not be afraid to accept training and re- sponsibility. There was a need also to refresh the image of scouting in the public eye, COSTS JUSTIFIED "Our expenditures were high this year; but we have to face the problem of internal plan- ning, rising costs and keeping abreast of the ever - changing times,"' the president comment- ed. "All the financial costs aris- ing from the growth and expan- sion of the movement are more than justified by the service ren- dered and the service given." Referring to some of the ex- penditures, Mr. Popham said the 8th Rover Den, which was f |destroyed by fire was replaced.

R. S, McLaughlin, 'who had made it possible to purchase a strip of land from the Totem Poles to the Oshawa Creek for this purpose, It was expected, he said, that by the end of the year all scout- ing grovps within the boundaries of East Whitby Township will become a part of the Oshawa District Council. This had been brought about by the desire of the East Whitby groups to join the Oshawa' District' Council, and the fact that East Whitby participates in the Greater Osh- awa Community Chest Appeal. A complete review of the council's insurance policies for, the Camp Samac properties is underway and it might be necessary to increase them in line with the increased replace- ment values. A complete study of the fire alarm system had been. made and some action would be taken. It is also hoped to enlarge the camping pro- gram in step with the demand.
