"There are in the world today many soâ€"called "Youth Movements"; but of all those of which I have any knowledge the one for boys that ;Ppeals to me most is the Boy Scout Movement. In my opinion, this organization which lays such stress on honor, on loyalty, on neighborliness and on ‘playing the game,‘ is the one that is the finest and is best suited to Canada. Naturally, its emphasis on loyalty appeals to me, for is not life made up u?loyaltiesâ€" loyalty to one‘s friends; loyalty to those thin;};s that are beautiful and good; loyalty to one‘s country; loyalty to our King; and above all, and most importâ€" ant of all, loyalty to God. enship which those splendid boys and girls provide; and this exfilains what I have also noticed everywhereâ€"that in Canada, the elders seems to stay youngâ€" er, to keep Youth in their hearts longâ€" er than they do in most countries. There is, in fact, throughout this great counâ€" try, a deep seated sympathy with Youth, a realization of the obligations of Age to Youth, which is one of Canâ€" | ada‘s greatest national assets.
