There were nine present at this meeting. Th first thing that was brought up was the case of all the scouts who didn‘t pass their Second Class requireâ€" ments in a specified time. It was deâ€" cided about three months ago that those who were then Tenderfoot scouts must beâ€" Second Class scouts within three months; there were five who were: still Tenderfoot scouts. They were asked to appear at the Cornerâ€"Tooth meeting and give the officers a reason or reasons why they did not pass these tests. This resultâ€" 1 ed in giving them until the next board of review to have them passed. The next thing that was discussed was the decorating of our meeting room with all sorts of nature craft and the scouts hobbies. We decided to ask the rest of the scouts ‘at the next meeting if it would be desirable to do this. We were given many sugâ€" gestions from the Scoutcraft magaâ€" zine, which Tom Atteridge brought to show us. 7 Each patrol leader and his assistant decided upon a special day each week for their patrol meeting. For the next few weeks they are going to have them on a school night and see how it works out, The next troop meeting was then talked about, which will be held at the Cabin in the Woods on Friday night.â€"David â€" Tibbetts, Troop _ 45, Lake Forest Episcopal church.
