Speaking of walks, last Sunday we Scouters and seven Scouts went back to the Pinery for a short hike. It was cold but we had fun among the snow-covered sand dunes. On Saturday last, two of our boys, Doug Jermyn land Wayne Bowen attended a district patrol leaders' conference at Clinton and, found it very enjoyable and educational. We 'had hoped. to send more fellows but a small representation is better than none. At • Monday night's meeting everybody nearly froze. We ar- rived to find that the furnace was out of oil—"somebody goofed." However, the situation was soon remedied but the hall remained quite chilly all evening. The temperature had everyone. on their toes, though. We passed more teats at Monday's meeting than we have for quite some time. We have several boys now who have almost qualified , for their second class badge. The first patrol competition. •ended. Monday night with Doug Jermyn's Eagle Patrol coming out on top. The Beaver and Cou- gar patrols, however, were very close and deserve a hearty cheer of congratulations. The next com- petition which starts this coming Monday promises to be a real battle. We have quite a few Scouting events coming up in Exeter be- tween now and July, many of which will be able to be seen by the general public. The first will be a church parade on Febfuary paper driVes. Thanks, folks. Sure hope it's warmer for the next edition. Message From Whalen By MRS. F.
