THE TIMES-ADVOCATE, EXETER, ONTARIO, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 19, 1»M •1" R.R. NO. 1 CENTRALIA, ONT. PHONE: EXETER 548 YOUR FRIENDLY RELIANCE DEALER 6.70 x'5 Scouts And Cubs Win Fourth Prize (Exeter iScout and ‘Cub ©roups showed up yery well at the Huron District Rally on (Saturday show ing that the people of Exeter have a couple of boys groups to be proud of. The Scouts pulled down fourth place in Scout activities which included signalling, first-aid and tent erection. We were the first troop to erect a flag pole made by lashing and staves together and 'mounted iby the troop flag. The Cubs did very well In their relays and jungle dance. We are quite proud of our boys al though we secretly wish more parents had attended. They would have found it wery enjoyable and informative outing. The overnight hike which fol lowed the rally turned into a rather wet affair. I imagine most of our readers know how much rain fell during Saturday night, (and most of which seemed to find its way into our two (tents. We were forced to abandon camp at precisely 6 am. Sunday mloming resuliting from ‘‘ex cessive moisture in the bed rolls.” This evacuation resulted in your writer losing a pair of socks and a red blanket. Perhaps by now 'these items have reached Lake Huron via the sitream which in vaded our privacy. Five ib'oys attended and one must take this opportunity to ap- pologize to 'them and to tlieir parents for the condition in which they and I their equipment was returned. Had we listened more attentively Ito Tom Bird perhaps all would have been well. Attendance dropped off for Monday’s meeting. It seem® ’that high school examinations are on us once again. Of course we wish the boys success in these exami nations and so do not insist upon perfect attendance. We are considering the erect ion of a signalling tower for next weekend activities. .Scouter Terry Centralia WA Fetes Ladies The Woman’s Association held ’their regular meeting in the basement of the church on Wednesday afternoon of last week.
