Nelson, of Walkerville. ie BIRTHDAY PARTY On January 17th, Scugog Chapter, Imperial Order Daughters of the Em- pire, held a most delightful party In celebration of their fifteenth birthday. During the afternoon bridge was played at various homes, the hostesses being Mrs. D. McMillan, Mrs. Gordon McKee, Mrs. C. E. Beare, Mrs. Merlin' Letcher. Later all the guests gathered at the home of Mrs, A. J. Davis for a dainty tea. The centre of interest was the birthday cake on a large silver tray, resplendent in pink and white cellophane decorations, and bearing. fifteen lighted candles. Mrs. George Woods, the Regent, after making the traditional wish, extinguished the candles and cut the cake. During supper, a flurry of excitement was caused by the arrival of an "invited" guest, who offered, like Tommy Tuck- er, to "Sing for his supper." This un- known gentleman proved to be Storey Beare, who delighted the guests with several songs. Our own youthful "Pete, the Mountain Boy" in the guise of Master George Stone, proved him- self worthy of the title with his cow- boy songs, to his own guitar accom- paniment. We'll be expecting George as a coming radio artist one of these days. Prizes were won by Mrs. Mul- ligan, Mrs. Bentley and Miss Edna McKee.

"Twas only last Thursday evening And all were in tip-top form, We took the jolly motor-bus To see the 'ockey boys perform. The time to leave was six p.m.; But we were a trifle late; Had to wait for poor old Ted, Who was selling some estate. At last we started on our way And we were packed in much like hay, When Harris shouted "On your right" Bona Vista all a-light. It wasn't long till up the hill * Young Storey Beare commenced to trill, The rest of us just started to sing About a guy perched on a swing. Well, anyway, out in the back, The place was like a funeral hack When Cornish took a cramp in his toe And Harris sang,--""A thousand times no!" We sang all the sengs for a little while Then a card game sorta, came into style; This lasted till our Thomas turned pale And asked one of the boys to show < him the rail. At last we arirved at the big garden gate, Where the people were going at a pretty good rate; We all caught the spirit and followed the crowd And kept on the climb and came out in the clouds. We sat in our seats and looked round about Which team would be winning there was little doubt; But after us shouting for nearly an hour The world famous Leafs turned sorta sour. We came out of there and found our .old seats, 'And landed at Bannon's to stow away eats. The food was sure good but the ser- vice was poor, Tom Harris had trouble in finding the right door. After having our fill-up on wheat and on meat, There was a wild rush to make sure of a seat. It nearly turned out. just one to a man, Sid Smallman had to ride "as best he can." We wended our way o'er the snow bound road And soon we commenced to part with our load, Till later way down on our main main street We all said "Good-night" and went home to sleep. A trip such as this is sorta new But all jokes aside there's some credit due Storey Beare, Ralph Gemmell and Billy Smyth, too, So "Good-bye" and "So-long" Boop- - Boop a Doo.

"2% A Juvenile Court Judge on Scouting-- In meeting the prohlem of the un- derprivileged boy, which is particular- ly pressing under present-day . con- ditions, the Boy Scout movement is of great assistance, .in_ the opinion of Judge J. F. McKinley, of the Ottawa minion's recognized authorities: on juvenile and domestic court problems. "I have no hestitation in saying that Scouting is a wonderful force for good among underprivilégdd- boys," declared Judge McKinley. , "Many boys go wrong simply be- cause they have no proper channels to give outlet to their physical and mental energies, As a result they make associations and form. habits which ultimately lead to serious wrong-doing." "In Scouting such boys are afforded a splendid outlet for their energies. They are 'thrown into intimate con- tact with qualified leaders, and al- together their associations are of the finest." £ Scout units in various parts of the Dominion have made it a practice to provide for a number of boys of needy families at their summer camps. The Alexander Mackenzie Rover Scout Crew of Galt and Preston, Ont,, holds an annual summer camp for such boys. Last summer over 100 boys were given the ten days' outing. The , Scouts of a British Columbia troop gave one week of their paid-for camp for the benefit of boys of needy families. ~T= FORD COUPE FOR SALE 1931 Ford Coupe, rumble seat, 193b license, excellent mechanical condition.
