Last Saturday through the mail I received a very nice let- ter that I would like to share with you. Although it was sent to me, it really belongs to the many people in Maple and our friends throughout the commun- ity who did so much to help our‘ neighbours following “THE” ex- plosion. Here, in part. is the letter: “The Honourable Louis P. Cecile, Q.C., Minister of Public Welfare, has. as you may be aware. recommended that Mr. Herbert Joslin of Maple, Ontar- io, be considered for the post- humous award of the George Medal in recognizing his heroic action during the propane gas explosion.

There were no leaders present and the Scouts were on their own being judged on the setting up of their camp site, regular inspection for uniforms, neat- ness, etc. (See article on this camp in Scouting News else- where in “The Liberal".) The amazing thing was how wonderful all the scouts respon- ded to the tests following weeks of inactive Scouting. At the closing exercises A, B or C pennants were handed out to each patrol, according to ac- cumulation at points. A total of three (only) A pen- nants were presented. Of these lst Maple received two and lst Beverley Acres with their com posit/e patrol won the other one. The Maple A winners were‘ the lst Maple Bobolink Patrol‘ with P. L.
