One of the Field Secretaries of the Provincial Council for Ontario sends the following: Some of the boys here are noted for being expert at swear- ing . The day after a meeting, two boys who were there and joined, to- gether with another lad who was not at the meeting, were playing ball, and the lad who was not at the meeting be- gan to swear. The others, who had joined the Scouts, remembering that "Scouts did not swear nor associate with those who did," said, "Look here, we are Scouts now and don't have any- thing to do with those who swear." They dropped their bats and left the other lad on the fleld. The following day they were playing again and the same lad had another attack of swear- ing. Instead of breaking up the game, the others chased him off the field. Mother!
