Each of the members of the committee which is setting out to build existing troops more solidly, more permanently, and to make pos- sible a richer program, are members of local troop committees in their vari- ous churches and other parent insti- tutions. The number of men interested in, and helping in Scout work in the North Shore Area totals more than a hundred, insuring that no Scout troop will be dependent upon a single man. The Spring council meeting of the North Shore Area council will be held Friday night, May 6, at the New Trier High school auditorium. Mem- bers of the council, all Scout commit- | tees, etc., will meet for dinner at 6:30.

Boy Leaders to Meet in Glencoe One of the fundamental bits of phil- osophy upon which Scouting is based is that boys should learn to lead them- selves. Adult leaders in Scouting serve as advisors, but the important leader- ship and responsibility in the troop is carried by its boy leaders. These older boys who are serving as the leaders and guides to younger boys coming into Scouting, will hold a conference at Glencoe on the forenoon of April 9, to discuss ways and means of build- ing stronger patrols. Each troop is entitled to send six delegates. The meeting will be held at the Glencoe Union church. Scouts Lining Up for Summer Camp As spring weather makes its prom- ises of sunshine and warmth, it is only natural that Scouts begin to think of Camp Checaugua, and the big timber- land paradise for Scouts across the lake in Michigan. Reports coming from the year-round care taker there are that everything is promising for the best possible camp this year. The first group of campers will leave for Checaugua on June 27. Several ap- plications have already been filed for "North Shore" period. In a recent bulletin issued to lead- ers, the North Shore Council lists the following coming events: March 25--Scoutcraft Rally at Deer- field Shields gym. Saturday, Morning, April 9--Junior officers conference at Glencoe Saturday Afternoon, April 9, 4 p. m.-- Tree Planting Ceremony at Wilmette.
