Five of the boy scouts returned home Monday after spending , twc weeks at the Boy Scout camp in the Beach o’ Pines south of Grand Bend The boys report a grand outing and during their stay in camp passed many of their second-class tests The camp is situated about five miles south of Grand Bend and is reached over a trail through the woods. The spot is chosen because a Scout is supposed to learn to live in the woods and open spaces, not too near a place of amusement else the best of results could not be se­ cured nor discipline maintained. In connection with the camp is a large mess liall built of lumber but the Scouts are all quartered in tents The staff headquarters’ tent is sit­ uated on a high sand dune overlook­ ing the camp. The tents are floor­ ed with a ground sheet or tarpaulin on which the boys roll their blan­ kets and sleep. Every morning the bed is aired, the tent put in order and inspected and points are given for neatness and cleanliness. On several occasions while in camp the Exeter boys carried off the highest honors. Three times a day the boys were allowed in swipiming under supervision. Last week when there were 32 boys in camp a life guard a the all the occasions. The camp is under supervision of Scout headquar- of London district. One thing the boys brought back with was on duty. In the evening large camp fire was lighted on beach and the various groups provided numbers or stunts for program. One of the stories that the boys tell is that a wolf had .been .prowling close to their tent and that the tracks of the animal had been plain­ ly visible in the sand on two differ­ ent the ters that them is a good coat of tan. The camp was visited on various occasions by relatives and friends of the boys and the Scoutmaster J. M. Southcott spent a couple ot nights with them one of the night of the storm.
