(PBI-IAMBOREI CAMP, UPTON FARM)

July l2, I p.m. After a rehearsal of the square dance. our camp fire opened with O‘ Canada. fol- lowed by Scout songs. Between each song the patrols in turn portrayed their acting ability by putting on a short skit.

The boys were tired enough to turn in after the strenuous work accomplished by the first day's activities.

Up bright and early! which is the usual thing for the first morn- ing of any camp. the Fox Patrol prepared a breakfast of oatmeal porridge, bacon and eggs. The Troop fortified by this good break- fast were in good condition to carry on the days activities which began with s. full dress parade for inspection and to have our Group picture taken. .

After e swim the Sea Gull Patrol served a well prepared meal of hamburg. string beans. potatoes and fresh Island strawberries for dessert. After rest hour the rest of the afternoon we: spent in making gadgets. These gadgets sre- models of scout craft. made from wood or small trees to make it convenient to keep the Scout equipment off the ground and the convenience of keeping the camp clean.

The Itcbin Petrol prepared an enjoyable supper of stew and jun. milk. bread and butter. We were all treated with chocolate dips by Mr. R. LeFage. The boys ell gathered st the bl! field to play a few games then they got ready for Camp Fire. ‘That's all for now. keep reading the daily news of the pre-Jamboree and Jamboree Camp.

TRANICONTINENTAL BIKER BACK HOME

VANCOUVER. July l3—(CP)— A 3.000-mi1e walk to Halifax, cost- ing him ll pair: of shoe: and a grand total of $8.95, is the claim. oi Vancouver hitch-hiker Earl T. "V. Mitchell.

The 28-year-old “wandereﬂ ar- rived back here with Dailey Bros. Circus in a new capacity. Mitchell is now a full-fledged "dog boy."

When he left Vancouver last October, he announced he would hike to the Atlantic coast. "I we: dog tired when I got there," he said. “But l rnsde it and I never accepted one lift."

During his l27-day walk, Mitch- ell was "sponsored" by leading department stores. who supplied him with boots, skis and snow- shoes for the trek.

Mitchell surrendered his pedes- trlan pastime in Meine when he found that regulation: prevented him from carrying enough money.

I-Ie packed his bags for Winni- peg end picked up with the ela- ‘cus two weeks ago.

"I went to leern as much about this business as I can." he said. "Then I'm going back to White- horse snd work on pack horse team: and dog tains."

lleerly 9 llllllons In Family Allowances To P. E. I. Mothers

A. Nicholson. Hegi 1 Dir of hmiiy Allowance?‘ "m5 today that in four year: gin” the first cheque: were mailed moth. er: in Prince Edward island have received nearly nine million dol- lars in family allowances. The "Erin allowance per family in May of this year was $15.79 and the average allowance per ehud was $0.25, with 12.950 cheques

[being mailed on behalf of 32.744

children.

The i091 Plymenh of family allowances throughout Cenede during the lest four years cgmgg to more than a billion dollars. By

Ml! 31st. 1949. payments had amounted to 91002381745, and the June cheques will add Ip-

proximately another $25 million dollars to that total.

As the years have gone by. the regulations have been altered to m9" ﬁhlﬂliﬂ! conditions. When the first cheques were paid. the income tax regulations provided for repayments to the Govern. ment of a portion of family al- lowances in proportion to income for those people earning more than $1.200. Since then, the in. come tax regulations have been Chlnléd. Ind now every parent may claim en exemptlo of $150 for each dependent child who 1| entitled to receive family allow- ances. Exemptions for children not eligible to register for these monthly cheques - usually chil-

-dren who lack the residence re-

quirements or who are over six- lem - l" $400 e year. Family allowances are not taxable. ﬁesidenco Requirements

A change has been made in the . sidence requirement: also. For- merly three yeers residence was required, but in view of the great- ly increased rate of immigration recently. the act was changed in April. 1949." so that children of immigrants may become eligible for family allowances after only one year‘: residence.

Big families have also ‘benefitted from a change made in April, i949. Until then the first four eli- gible children in a family receiv- ed the full allowance. but there was e reduction of $1 for the fifth child. $2 each for the sixth and seventh. and $3 for each eddi- tionai child. Now every eligible child — no matter how many there are in a family — receives the full allowance. ,

In May. 1949. there were 1.787.- 522 families receiving cheques on behalf of 4.041.771 children. The average allowance per child var- ied from $6.01 in British Colum- bia to $6.20 in Newfoundland. with an all-Canadian average of $6.16 per child. The average al- lowance per family varied frorn $11.41 in British Columbia to $16.90 in Newfoundland. with n national average of $13.93. Family allowances regional of- fices are established in every pro- vincial capital and the cheques are sent out from the regional of- fices. Employed in each family allowances regional office are so- cial workers who investigate al- leged abuses in the uses of the allowances. Less than one-half of one percent of mothers who re- ceive femlly allowances spend them in such a wev'that an in- vestigation is called for, and in only a handful of cases -- usual- ly of forgery or fraud — is court action required.

As family allowances are pay- able only to children who are complying with the school at- ‘endance regulations of their pro- vince. teachers and social work- ere report a noticeable increase in

school ttendance since the in- ceotion of this benefit. Letters from thousands of

mothers are on ﬂle in family al- lowsnces offices. lt is not infre- quent for a mother whose child ha: reached the age of l6. to write

Ellen's Diary

(Continued from Page 2)

—or James would sey "a brindle shade”, who this morning became the proud and extremely kind mother of seven off-spring. like herself of only suspected male par- entage, and altogether Just "dawg." The event occasioned a spell of in- terruptlon to the farm work, when the anxious cells of the youngsters foiled to summon their playmate. James was brought then from the field to loin in the search. Our far- mers were at the weeding then. having suspended for the time the storing of fuel-wood. when the more insistent chore demanded im- mediate attention. A bit slow in appearing were these mangels and turnips of ours, though the catch is promising now. stretching in long slim rlvulets of green from end to end of the rows. Each nook and probable retreat about the place, from the depth of the hay-mow to ‘the heights of the lofts was comb- ed without finding hide or hair of the missing pe.t. .

Now where could she have be- taken herself for her suspected travail? That was a matter of con- jecture. But they found her at length, while s hoe lay idle down a turnip drill. and the sun climbed

steadily and James’ minutes sped. A plaintive whimper revealed he: whereabouts. and it was James. blessed still with his boyish lines. who must crawl into an opening beneath a barn to retrieve her and her family for the anxious chil- dren. "We found her at last," Jamie came in obviously relieved to report, “and you'll never guess what she has?" We must leave our in- terest to come then to admire them, as did all of the grown-ups, when given the tidings. Indeed more than once today, like the children, we found our steps turning to the stable where a box in a vacant stall holds these treasures of our small ones. "Now aren't they handsome?" grand-daughter exclaimed when we looked with her upon the plump new-born fellows "and wasn't Tippy the good dog to bring us all these little darlings?" t O

If this evening James had not followed a practice once subscribed to among heathen notions when parents rid themselves of unwant- ed daughters, to leave us with five thriving males. we have a notion that as the days rolled by filled with our farm cares, our husbands

would have been well content to keep the lot. As it is. instead of
