"B" PACK CUBS The annual Christmas party was held in the Scout house last Thursday evening with perfect attendance except for one Cub, who was ill. All the leaders were present. The hall was decorated and a lovely Christmas tree twin - kled in the corner. As the Cubs arrived they placed their gifts under the tree and the regular opening ceremony followed. The Grand Howl was led by Akela, Mrs. Ahara and all Six- ers took part in leading the boys. The pennant for the best all- round Six for the first half of the year was presented to the Blue Six, and Sixer Steven Lloyd received the pennant. A blue patch will be sewn onto the pack pennant. A Senior Sixer stripe was presented to John Schipper.John had been chosen as the best all round Sixer and for general pro- ficiency and willingness to co- operate with the leaders. This is the first time B Pack has had a Senior Sixer, and they are very proud that one of the boys qualified for this position of honor. Congratulations, John. Ivlrs. Ahara announced that it was necessary for her to give up the leadership of the Cubs at this time and that ACM Hugh Sinnamon would take over. A presentation ceremony was held for Mrs. Ahara by ACM Sinna- mon, when she was presented geb t activities with a beautiful Indian Chief's headdress, in token of the grand Indian Camp held last summer. The boys were reminded that she had been given the Indian name of "Shining Eyes". Three cheers followed and Mrs. Ahara- thanked Mr. Sinnamon for this wonderful gift, which was hand- made. A games period followed when ACM Sinnamon was assis- ted by Jim Campbell and Bill McIntyre, the two new Cub Leaders, while Akela and ACM Eileen Bennett prepared the lunch. Following refreshments the gifts and candy canes were handed out and the evening closed with the reading of a poem, telling the story of the first Christmas day, and why we celebrate this festive time. Akela reminded the boys not to forget that this is the birthday of the Christ Child and that as they enjoy the festivities of Christmas Day to remember the reason it is celebrated. Akela announced that ACM Bennett would not be with "B" Pack for the rest of this year due to ill health and expressed the regrets of all present. As the boys left, the leaders wished each and every boy a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Mrs. Busybody was pumping the local lawyer about the de-_ mise of the town's richest man. "You knew him well," she cooed. "How much wealth did he leave?" With a tip of his hat, the old lawyer replied, "All of it, Ma- dam, all of it." •W.det the Divine Light that shone upon the shepherds, bring you joy this Christmas season.
