Writes of Portland Exposition Roy H. Jarrett of Kenilworth, for many years a Scout enthusiast, recent- ly sent the following information to Walter McPeek, Scout Executive of North Shore Area council, regarding the Boys' Vocational Exposition, spon- sored by the Rotary club of Portland of the Portland Scout council. In writing about the exposition, which was held in the auditorium with af nightly attendance of more than 3,000 people, he says: "All of the activities of Scouting were being carried out on three floors in addition to a show in the main building. In the dairy booth there was a live cow being milked by machinery and the milk being pasteur- ized in one machine, cooled in another machine, boxed and placed in cartons for delivery. This will give you some idea of the extend of the exhibit. There was a live horse in the riding booth, and a pony and a dog being bandaged in the first aid to animals booth, brick-laying was actually being carried on with several loads of bricks. Plastering demonstrations were going on with columns six feet high. In the journalism booth the multigraph was turning out a daily paper." Troops Await Mobilization Hardly a month goes by but what the Scouts of some community are called up to render service in the case of some disaster. Recent tornados, floods, etc., has demonstrated this. A surprise mobilization will be held in the near future to test the effectiv- ness of local troops. Local Scout leaders are investigating their organi- zation plan to be sure that it will work 100%. The Council Office notifies the Scoutmaster, or his representative, who in turn notifies the assistant Scout- master and the Senior patrol leader. Fach of these notify two patrol lead- ers, who in turn notifv the assistant patrol leader, who notifies three Scouts at the same time the patrol leader carries the word to three Scouts.
