From registration at 130 to dinner a 6 o'clock, we snapped right along on schedule, - There were, discussion groups for cub- masters, scoutmasters, rover lead- ers, meémbers of group commit- tees and even mothers' auxiliar- ies, and afterwards we all got to- gether while the commissioner for training, Charles Mann, told us how much we need to attend our leaders' training courses, and how. little we know, and "Red" Bourne of Hamilton district told us fas- cinating things about putting the "out" in scouting from the point of view of nature study. Leading the cub discussion groups was a wise Aleka, well versed in the ways of WOIf cubs, Mrs. Agnes Morris of Brantford. The cubs in Akela Morris' pack are all blind cubs, but if anyone can open the 'spiritual eyes of those cubs and show them the magic of the jungle path, we are sure Agnes Morris can. Good hunting, Akela! The climax to a thoroughly suc- cessful afternoon, and an excel- lent dinner, was the, talk by: our chief executive commissioner, Ma- -| jor-General D, C. Spry. Space does not permit the outlining of General Spry's plan, but, speak- ing of the shortage of leaders, he cited amongst 'other examples, district scoutmasters doing a scoutmaster's job, leading troop, and cubmasters with two cub packs.
