It could be Worth the price of a new electric motor (from a refrigerator, sump pump, oil burner, furnace fan, shallow well pump, washing machine, etc.) BECAUSE if any of these motors should accidentally seize while a 30 amp fuse is protecting the circuit the 30 amp {use will not burn out. (The seized motor will not draw quite enough current to burn the 30 amp fuse or not burn it before the motor is damaged.) It pays to use 15 amp fuses, especially where there are motors of V4 HP. or less on the circuit. TU. 4-3211 Richmond Hill Branch: H. C.--P0well Now it's a puppy â€"in a few years, greater things.

The same year's log tells of two suc- cessful week~end camp: at Mr. Sharp's farm on the Humber Hiv- er at Woodbrldge, and of church parades with Scouts and Guides from the district incluing those from the Orange Home; led by th$ Richmond Hill Trun’gpet Band. “4.“. .-- 1n..â€" .. Mr. Srigley’s Troop Log Book for 1935 tells of the Troop’s par- ticipation along with the lit Com- pany of Girl Guides in the par- ade celebrating King George V’s Jubilee on May 6th, 1935. The day's activities concluded with a program in the Arena and the log records “We then passed out- side for the firing of the Royal Salute of 21 rockets which were very kindly donated to the Troop by our highly esteemed Commit- teeman, Mr. H. J. Mills. These were very much appreciated by everyone. This was followed by thehligh'ting of the Beacon Fire During the 30’s. leadership changed several times, but it is interesting to raid the well kept Troop Log Book written by Mr. Bob Srigiey who was Scoutmaster at that time. Being an ’ interdenominatiomal movement, the Troop and Pack moved over to the Anglican church in 1933, and at this time the Rev. Claude Secrett was the chairman of the Group Commit- tee. So it will be seen that scout- ing in Richmond Hm was comâ€" menced under the sponsorship a! the churches. ’While World Scouting is 50 years old this year, in Richmond Hill it is just a young man of 27 years. Credit for starting scouting in Richmond Hill must go to the Presbyterians. It was in 1930 that the Rev. D. Marshall of the Presbyterian church organized the first tloop in Richmond Hill, and acted as its Scoutmaster. Mr. Jack Smith, since 1945 our M P. for North Yo1k, and pub- fisher of “The Liberal”, gave his support to the movement in becoming the first chairman of the G1oup Committee. In the original troop there were 14 boys, and in 1932 our staunch friend, Mr. Frank Schissler became assistant Scoutmaster The Rev. D. Marshall organized a Wolf Cub Pack in this year also.

A very notable event which at~ tracted attention (and funds) from far and wide was the Winter Wonder Fair held at the Lions hall. This gala event con- ceived and organized by Group Committee chairman, Duncan Smith featured an old time vill- age fair complete with a general store, bake sale. men's baking contest. fish pond, etc., ending up with a sell-out auction sale. and an evening of square dancâ€" ing and entertainment. The work in staging this mammoth event paid off in funds, but wreaâ€" ked such havoe on‘ Scout parents who worked on it that the fair has not yet been repeated. In the past two years, with the expansion of Richmond Hill into the east and west. Scouting 'has entered another boom period; one which the original first Richmond Hill Group felt it was no longer able to cope with. However, this Group did help the new rear- ,. J -H e .w “Ne w mums” of-"their time through this period- were Don Fettes, Bill Bunker, Alec Reid, John Flanagan and Harold Brown for Scouts; Mr. Stan Tinker, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Smith .Mr. and Mrs. Bill \l‘urner, Mrs. Marg. Styan and Mr. Albert Smith for Cubs. With the High School becoming a District High School the Cubs moved to the Public School's new auditorium, and continued until the conversion of this room into classroom, farced them out. The Scouts moved temporily into somewhat cramped quarters in the basement of the United Church. Here, the Scoutmaster, Don Fettes, with 6‘ 4" frame had to go around in I constant crouch in order to escape the hazards-of the low ceiling. So you can see at this time the need for a Scout hall became desper- ate. The Group Committee men were even scouring the country for suitable barns or other vac- ant buildings which might be moved and converted to Scout use. Then in 1950 the Group rented the room on Yonge St. now occupied by the Pocst Office Annex. and this was the Scout hall until the present quarters, the old curling rink in the park, was taken over ‘a few years ago.

Funds for‘the renting and ren- ovation of the Scout hall and for the boys’ activities were raised by the annual financial campaign managed by the Group Commit- tee â€" by waste paper collections and Apple Days run by the boys, sales. and other fund raising acâ€" tivities of the} Mothers‘ Auxiliarv. ‘ With the lull in Scouting in 1941. the Lions Club took over sponsorship of the Group for a few years. but later gave it up. and thereafter the responsibility [or Scouting passed to the com- munity as a whole. The Group Committee was, and still is, el- ected annually from fathers and interested citizens at an annual public meeting. In the years after 1947, the ever-increasing number of boys who wanted to become Cubs and Scouts placed constant pressure on the Group Commit- tee to find leaders, meeting plac- es and funds to keep up with the demand and through these years the Group Committee was very fortunate in having some very capable and public-minded citiz- ens to act on the Committee â€"- Messrs. Allan Bales, Russell Lyn- ett, Herb Butt. Harry Stanford, Jack Rice, Duncan Smith, Angus Smith, Pete Smith and Jack Wharton (to mention only a few) have given their time and energy to the cause. Of course the con- stant complaints by the leaders of overwork and inadequate quar- ters, and the urging of the Moth- ers‘ Auxiliary contributed some- what to the Committee’s success. Mrs. Frank Gardiner did out- standing work in the Richmond Hill Mothers’ Auxiliary and asna member of the York Central Dis~ trict, used her exceptional talent to help organize other Auxiliar- ies through the District. Among the leaders who gave so willingly n‘ sLA:_ 4:, Thereafter, Scouting and Cub- bing in Richmond Hill just grew and grew like “Topsy". A second Pack. then a third Pack had to be formed to accommodate the increase in youngsters who want- ed to become Cubs. Also as the Scout Troop was filled to over- flowing, the Second Scout troop was formed . ‘a mninstay of Scouting in Rich- mond Hill. He managed to talk his across-the-street neighbour. Mr. Walter Smith another new resident into forming a Cub Pack which held its first meeting of 10 boys in March. 1948. in Mr. Edmund’s basement recreation room. One Cub of this period, who shall remain unknown. prob- ably has a verytvwid memory of a week-end camp at Mr. Allan Bales' cottage on Lake Simcoe. He hoarded a whole has of lic- orice allsorts which he refused to share, eating them all himself .â€" with-somewhat disastrous re- sults. The next day found him very pale and listless, confined to bed while his companions enjoy- ed the outdoors. Bapid‘Growth two sears, with the Richmond Hill into west.
