The “Scouters” and staff from District Headquarters test them on relays, signals etc.. and members of the police force give them their safety test. This means a team effort and your cub needs the support of his mom and dad on his team. The date is Saturday, June 10 and the place is Thornhill Park.

Not only is he a horticulturist and natur- alist par excellence, but he is a terrific chalk artist and illus- trated his talk through drawings and sketches in such a manner that the poorest excuse for a landscape gardener could com~ prehend. There were five definite points Prof Weall outlined for the ama- teur gardener to follow in plan- ning the landscape for his home: 1. Simplicity; 2. Proportion: 3. Harmony; 4. Personality; 5.

A generous cash donation to~ wards the fund for playground equipment has been received by the Club from two of our local business concerns. If any other firm should feel so inclined, by all means contact the president, Bert Stevenson at AL. 7-1135. Prof. John Weall lived up to advance notices and much more.
