The Scout- master is signed up for a Gillwell! Course at Ebor Park, near Brant- ford, and unfortunately, it is at‘ the same time'as the District at White Cloud Island. As a result, the troop is at a loss to know whe- ther to go to the Island without him, .or to stay at home and have a camp in the neighborhood of Dur- ham. The Rocky has been suggested as an ideal place for a troop camp. It arrangements could be made with the owners of the property, there are some splendid spots for a small camp there. It has also been sug- gested that we get together with Hanover and camp with them at Al- lan Park. However. wherever the camp is. there is no doubt. that there will he one. So get your ditfle to- gether. Gather Up last year’s kit and stmv it. away somewhere after you have gone, over it to see that it. is in shape. If there is a ramp of the troop alone. all cooking: will have t0 be done by the patrols. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. and also start. getting pointers from your mother on eooking-â€"-y0u‘ll need them. Following out the. suggestion of Field Secretary Jones. we have “re. vamped" the troop into four pa- trols. These patrols are as follows: Beavers, Patrol Loader. Wfallaoo (Sz'llty) Hepburn; Badgers. Patrol Loader. Bill Wilson; Owls. Patrol Loader. George (Slippery) Hay; Buf- falo. Patrol Loador Ernest Noavos. The ro-adjustmont means that there. will be about seven follows in oaoh patrol. It is working out much bot- tor than the. twoâ€"patrol system. which was becoming wry rumbor- some. As it is. We started out-lo recruit about five now scouts last. week and have about a dozen pros- pects. A list of the scouts in each patrol together with a description of the patrol colors and call will ap- pear in this column next week. Weekly Meeting The mid-week, eoting last week was woll-atten . The Owls car- ried 011‘ the honors in the competi- tions. They are stepping right out under the leadership of Slippery Hay and Oscar Moon, and it seems a shame to break them up. However. the new combination should be bet- ter. Erny Neaves will have a smart bunch of youngsters, and they are going to give the Owls a sharp tussle. It was uxpected that Hanowr would hike out to Allan Park to meet. us last Sunday and put on a little field (lay of scout events, wind- ing up with a baseball match. How; «ever. they (lisappoiutm us.
