Cheer-up! Cheer-up!" carolled a robin from the branches of an apple tree in an orchard in Stanley Township on Tuesday morning. Robin red breast was out bright and early and looked as if he had just arrived from Florida to pro- claim the good news that spring was here. (Of course he could have hibernated in a barn during the winter and just been giving vent to his joy over the warm sunny day.) It really does feel like spring! Perhaps the bird will not be the only creature thus deceived; for March came in like a lamb this year. And the so-called "lamb" can very suddenly turn into a roaring lion in the month of March, this writer has noticed in years gone by. 1111011111111111111111111111111111111111MIIMIIIIME111H1111511411INMII (Ily ow' Bayfield correspondent) The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Scents and Cubs met at the par- sonage on Wednesday evening, February 29.

The executive will plan the next meeting which will be held March 28 at 8,30 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Alfred Scotchmer. In a brief but very informative address on the "Objectives of Scouting," Mr. Douglas Carswell, District Scout Master, reminded his audience of mothers• and friends of Scouts and Cubs in, the Bayfield district that a vast num- ber of boys the world over come under the influence of Scouting ideals and training for some, eight to ten of the most formative years of their lives-. There was abundant evidence that the training received under keen and capable Scout and Cub leaders helps mould character along very beneficial lines and leads to good citizenship. Mr. Carswell said that 1907 was the starting date for Scouts, al- though the germ of the idea could be traced to the boyhood of the founder, Lord Baden Powell. Al- ways interested in nature, B-P as he is affectionately known, became an expert tracker and scout while serving his country as a soldier in India and Africa. He wrote a mili- tary text book on "Scouting", On his return to England, Baden- Powell found, to his surprise, that his book had become a favourite with boys. Thus encouraged, he wrote the classic "Scouting for AUBURN Correspondent-MRS. FRED ROSS Phone Dungannon 9 r 15 Robert Craig, London, spent the weekend with his wife and family. Mr. and Mrs. Donald H.

Scouts are now organized in seine 70 countries with over six million members, Always the ob- jective was the same—"good citi- zenship," Mr. Carswell mentioned some of the phases' of citizenship training which the scout receives, He is expected to learn to take part in civic affairs, above all the Scout law binds him to observe his' re- ligious obligations and to fulfill his duty to God. He is also train• ed to be aware of his country's needs, Mr. Carswell traced the type of training in each age group and em- phasized the boy's growing love for nature and his thankfulness to God the Creator — "only God could make a tree," Mothers smiled' ap- preciatively when he promised that the boys would be taught "how to make a bed". Behind all these activities the boys would be taught that God makes it all worthwhile. Mr. Carswell summarized by say- ing that it is "religious training in motion all the time." The Scouts Association in Bay- field is sponsored financially by the three major churches, Angli- can, United, and Presbyterian, and by the Lions. Club. Chairman of the group committee is the Rev. W. S. Outerbridge. Secretary treasurer is the Rev. P. Renner.

A silver collection was taken and the meeting closed with the Scouts benediction pronounced 'by Mrs. Fred Wallis. 0 Deer Harried By Bayfield Dogs, Dies WateryDeath (By our Bayfield correspondent) A week ago Saturday, a deer was seen, about noon, on Main Street near the post office. Several times one has- been sighted in the village this winter, It' probably came here for protection, but on this occasion it didn't linger long. Local dogs were seen picking up its trail on the' street. Later in the day, Fred Turner took a walk down to Pioneer Park to see what the lake- looked like. His attention was attracted to a dark object in the water at which dogs were barking. Thinking that it might be a hu- man being, he hurried up to R. S. Roddick's home. He took his tele- sctpe and R. Jenkins a pair of field glasses. From the cliff at the park, Mr. Roddick was able to make out that the dark object was a deer. It had probably plung- ed through the ice and drowned. But the dogs still stood by, giving tongue. LONDESBORO MRS. II. PTJANTN, Cerrespondent Phinae Blyth 37 I.9 Mr. and Mrs. Harry Durnin spent Sunday afternoon in Kin- cardine.
