This bask- et Picne," which will be ap annual event henceforth was held at Thun- der Lake and will long be remember- ed for its happy outcome, : Ong truck-load of excited childr:n and about five cars comprised the party. Bathing Suits were the first cost- ume donned by the young and such a splashing, jumping and whooping would deafen the ears of mummy ! Mothers had difficulty in re-cu'ne their young from the attractive waves, for even such a beguiling factor as EATS. 7 Sitting or squatting or standing everyont enjoyed to the full extent the excellent coffee and tea, which dispensation was under the super: vision of Mrs Gordon president of the Ladies Auxiliary, ° Under the influence of a hearty objected at all to some means of wearing off a little surplus energy. So races for old and ~ Young were held. The most unique race was the baby race (two and thres years). About ten chubby tots of both sexes ran with all their little migths to a finish and dark-haired, dark- eye little Gordon Alexander, 3-years was declared Champion Baby Run-- ner, for which he amassed the small fortune of ten cents.

Agent, Dryden The Boy Scouts To the Editor,-- It is to be hoped that those who were at the Chgutauqua tent when Private Peat gave his lecture a- gainst future wars will take heed and educate their Children against the love of the pomp and gaiety of Wars as printed is the history books. i Pte. Peat was quite right in say- ing that the dierent combatants in the last war, did not hate each oth- ed at the beginning but wer; hat'ng sach other quite fiercely when the Armistice was signed. The Boy Scout Asscciation is one good way to teach the boys and it is up to avery father and mother to get their boys to join such on ogranization. The training they receive whilst in the Scouts helps to make boys more self-religng and dependable. Some seople say the Scout Movement pre- nares boys for future wars but hey are wrong. The Associgtion has been called by people who know he Junior League of Nations, and 20 my belief I think . that if wera presented a host of beauti- jg Ul boys were members, it would go a long long way to stop future! wars. I dare say that the Scout master on one of the committee, of the Troop which has been recently; established in Dryden would be qu'te] willing to give any informatio, to those who wish for it. The Boy Scout Movement was started in England in 1912 by S'r Baden-Powell with just a few lads, and: it is now World-wide. Canady herself has a total of 50,486 men & boys, and Chile, 3 small republic 'n South America, has nearly 10,000 Members of the Association. Th not forget people that any boy between 8 and 20 years is elig- ible, whether he is , Methodist, R. C. or Mohammedony or any other rel'gion; but he must have his} paremts consent. Ei From what I have heard of the Liryden Troop they have already dong some helpful deeds for people in town. A Boy Scout is always wil- ling to help others and he is taught to be a brother to all. As Mr Pitt said in last weeks' paper, on the rural telephones, I hope to start 5 discussion on the subject. The Scouts will make Dryden a better tow, if becomes a universal movement. --EX-SERVICE 1st DRYDEN BOY SCOUTS-- Now that Chautauqua is over, it is hoped the boys will attend their Scout meetings with renewed vigor. The Scouts will meet on Monday at head- quarters at 7 p;m and the Cubs at 7 pum on Thursday. It is hoped that a Scout Band will be started shortly. All Scouts are requested to be on Parade at 7 p.m, Monday the 18th. There is important business to be discussed.

They may not be forceful enough to express our pleasure in this yearly event. And on the othep hand they may suffice.
