Annual Meeting

(Continued from Page 1)

urer’: report, Mr. Warren, 1mm. ant Commissioner in a mo“ m, dress. stated that the progress mad, in the movement during the page year was highly satisfactory, and that judging from his numemug visitation: to the various troops the "lull? 0! 800d leadership was ev. erywhere evident.

As a result of discussion, it was decided to limit the Associated members fee from two to one dol- lar. - '

It was thought advisable to post- pone the holding oi an “apple day" until e. future date, and regarding the Jamboree to be held next sum- mer in Hungary. it was thought that the Association should en- deavour in some manner to raise funds to send at least two scouts. and that the Secretary send full particulars to each troop regard- ing qualifications, etc.

A concert, which would include all troops was suggested to be put on in Charlottetown and Sunlmer- side.

The Annual Scout Parade was

decided to be held to Bt. James

Church, and the Church of the Holy Redeemer at the invitations presented by the churches.

An invitation extended to the Scouts to take part in the Remem- brance Day parade was discussed and found favour amongst those present. The outcome was left in the hands of the Assistant Commissioner.

Reference to the departure of Mr. o. n. Fllilter, President, lvlr; and Mrs. Preston McLaine, Scout- master and Cubmaster of Zion Church respectively and Mr. Kali Vinnlcombe, of St. Peter's Troop was made, in which regret was ex- pressed at the loss the Association sustained in their absence from’ the Province.

At the close of the meeting a. vote of thanks to the City Council was moved by Rev. G. T. Spriggs. seconded by Rev. Canon Malone and unanimously carried.

COMMIS SIONEWS REPORT

To the Provincial Council of the Boy Scouts Association of Prince Edward Island at this time assem- bled in annual session in Charlotte- town, October 1932.

"What to do with our boys" 1s a problem of ever increasing per- plexlty. For many the Boy Scouts Association supplies an attractive and effective answer for by its means character is often formed and built up. Our former Chief Scout, Viscount Byng of Vlmy, once said, "me want our boys to bc Canadians, Citizens and Christians." The Boy Scouts are potentially all this if they receive the complete training. The work accomplished in this Province has been directed with this end in view and during the past year has been of a steady nature rather than spectacular.

Concert. The Charlottetown troops organized in the spring of 1932 a

tble sum to help finance the Pro- vincial Camp. This enterprise de-

“Cubs.” There are several Ch culcating the ' y knowledge of Scouting to the younger lads. A pack should exist near every Scout Troop, as it is from the ranks of the Cubs that we often get our best Scouts. I received ‘great in- spiratlon when I was able to visit the Pack at St. Peter's, Charlotte- town.

Rovers-This branch of the work has made a small beginning in our Province and I trust will continue to grow. Our Association would be much strengthened if we could en- rol all former Boy Scouts and Scoutmasters in the Rovers.

Cllwell Course-Again our Prov- ince has had representation at the Maritime Gilwell camp conducted by the Provincial Council of New Brunswick. It is only by such training that we can improve our leadership and attain a. higher standard‘ of work in this Provlnce_ I look toward the day when all our Scoutmasters and Assistants will have the Gilweli Parchment, Beads and Neckerchief.

Jamboree-This completes my fourth year of office and during ,this term many important events have taken place. Perhaps the most outstanding one may be mention- ed, the Jumbo cc to c b date the coming-of-age of the Boy Scouts Association held at Arrows i Park, England. You may ask "Why mention this event of 1929?" Be- cause next year is to be held an- other Jamboree i_ri Hungary and I look forward to as great beneficial results from it to our Association. In this connection, provincially, there are problems to be met and overcome, and as your Commis- sloner I wk you to find the ways and means to send at least,. two boys overseas. The intensive train- ing the fourteen boys gave them- selves to try and reach the requir- ed standard in 1928 has been of lasting value to them and when the fortunate boys selected return- ed, ihey brought inspiration to us all.

Correepondence-Jn the early spring of this year it became my duty and privilege to convey your i greetings to Hon. Lieut. Col. J. H. , Woods of Calgary on his appoint- lment as Provincial Commissl lei l for Alberta. He is one of the out- standing figures of today and we are glad he has had this honour conferred on him.

On the occasion when the Can- adian General Council presented Col. R. J. Birdwhlstle with the Honorary Silver Wolf Badge your congratulations were forwarded to him, and a very kindly reply re- ceived from him, in which he spoke of the days hc spent in this Prov- ince some years ago in the interests of the Boy Scouts Association.

President-Now I must speak of the great loss we have sustained by the removal from our Province of George Filllter Esqr, our Pres- ident. For many years he has de- monstrated in a wonderful way his practical interest in our boys. When you selected him for that office you "did better than you knew" to adapt to our present need e well used expression On all oc- casions he was ready to do every- thing in his power to help, by ad- vice, by zealous work, by thought- ful interest, the cause so near to his heart, the Boy Scouts Asso- ciation. For the Province his de- parture is a loss which we shall feel for many years. Before he left Charlottetown a few of the Coun- oil and Scoutmestors met to pre- sent him with fhe "Thanks Badge" as l. small token of appreciation for all he did in this work rdr boys. Thanks-Once more my thanks are due to your Provincial Secret- ll’! Mr. B. C. Parent, for his un- tlring energy and seal; and I would include the Assistant Commission- er. Mr. W. Warren. These two men are unique in Scout ability and energy. sometimes I think we could not do without them. I am grateful to them, and all others throughout the Province who have helpediomlke the Boy Scouts Association ittaln such a positim of proficiency.

Our census just completed shows that we have 170 active Scouts and 48 active Cubs in eleven groups, making a total of 218. In addition to this there are twenty-six active leaders. makng a grand total of 244 active members of the associ- ation. Last year there were 214 act- ive members.

The above figures does not in- clude 75 Associate members, nor members of the various Group Committees.

One new Troop was organlmd dim!!! the year, namely the 3nd Summersl’ , under the auspices of St. Pauls R. C. Church. Cub Packs were also organized at St. Paula Anglican Church and at Zion Presbyterian, Charlottetown, where scouts have been carrying on for sometime.

Scoutmastcrs Warrants, signed by the Chief Scout for Canada. His Excellency, The Governor General, were issued to three scout leaders,- nameiy: Rev. Wm. Philips, Alber-, ton; Mr. E. J. I-Iallett, Summerside and Mr. J. Harold Arsenault, ‘Sum- melslde.

Group Charters were issued to three groups: The 7th Charlotte- town. the lst and 2nd Summerslde.

The Gilwell Woods Badge and Certificate were presented to Rev. A._ G. crows, Central Bedeque, and Mr. R.- C. Parent, Charlottetown. These are given to those who take both the Practical and Theoretical courses in Scouting, and who arc lecommen‘ by the Provincial Commissoner.

close watch on the progress of vari- ous activities. One ofllcer was stationed throughout the evening in the Brighton district and mother in the eastern section of the city. About half a dozen lights had been reported broken at midnight, in most cases in the Brighton dis- trict. About 10.30 a bomb, which had been placed on a window ledge on the east side of West Kent School exploded, broke five large panes of gfass, and shattered the window frame. A Wlllys-Knight car was pushed into the Govern- ment Pond by some too-enthusias- tic celebrants. A number of fences were also pulled down or destroy- ed.

In accordance with time honoured custom, the students of Prince of Wales College gathered en masse to serenade their professors. Gover- n_or Dalton, Mayor Stewart, Mr. C. H. B. Longworth, president of the Alumni Society, were among oth- ers whom the students visited. Cheers and college yells enlivened the city throughout the evening. The conduct of the students was in every way exemplary, and not a single questionable incident mar- red the progress of the large group as it passed through the streets.

During the months of July three Boy Scout Camps were he'd. The Provincial Camp at Fairvicw with 23 boys and thmc leaders; first Summerside Camp at Femwcod with 30,boys and three leaders, and the First Bedeque and Freetown Camps at Fernwood with i8 boys and two leaders, a total of '79 Scouts and leaders. In addition to the benefits in health and fellow- ship many tests were passed. There were n0 idle moments.

One of the outstandng events during the year was the holding of a Patrol IJEQClBTS Conference in Summerslde on Oct. 1st. Forty-six scouts and eight leaders were pres- ent. The afternoon was spent in short talks, discussion and K611105- At the banquet an inspirational ad- dress was given by Rev. Bennett McDonald, which was highly en-g joyed. At the Camp Fire perhaps the most interesting feature was the presentaton of badges.

Two of our Scouts, namely char- les Batt and Phil Stavert are at the present time working hard on the "Fisher Body Model." This model requires a tremendous amount of painstaking work and when completed will be very beauti- ful. These same two Scouts entered model airplanes in the Model Air-
