The Scouts of the 1st Wingharn
Boy Scout Troop attended Camp
Martyn at Inverhuron for 10 days.
The first -aay the boys put up
their. tents and began to fix ' up
their camp sites. Their appetites
were not dampened by the Wet
weather they hail, for the amount
.of .food they consunwd was aston-
ishing. Tncir milk consumption for
the 10 days was about 285 quarts.
