Under the direction‘oi their superior oiiicers, they are ' planning to do real ' ‘ Eal work in {selling of stamps, ' between now and the end of the year. Liv- ing up to their motto that each Scout shall each day do some kindness to another, the boys have resolved that this slogan can be well made effective in the selling of Christmas Stamps to help on the great work being done for needy consumptives in the M uskoka Free HOSpital for Consumptives. In fact, the young people everywhere, in Public Schools, 8311- 1 bath Schools, and through their many difl‘erent organizations, are proving them- selves a wonderful help in this Christmas Stamp campaign.

It is well that it is so, for all know to what extent one’s own feelings, whether cheery or the Opposite, influence both mental and physical conditions. “I was certainly impressed with this thought,” remarked a newspaper reporter, “ in inter- viewing a patient of the Muskoka Free Hespital for Consumptives. She was a pretty girl of ‘24, brown hair and dark my eyes, who hatl come all the way from Saskatchewan. She said she felt pretty sick when she first arrived at the Hospital, and for two days the nurses had to person- ally feed her. ‘ I have been in bed all the time,’ she said. ‘ I have been well cared for while 1 have been here. I am Sure I am going: to get well, and feel better now than behave I took sick. Everybody seems so happy and bright, and tells me when I get up I am sure to like it.
