SCOUT NEWS
The Lions Scout
executive and the
leaders of the Brown-
ies, Guides, Cubs,
Scouts and Rovers
held a meeting in the
Scout Hall to discuss
proper,leadership for
the various Scout and Guide or-
ganization in Clinton. Miss J. Mutch,
Mr. N. Davis, and Mr. J. Read were
conspicuous by their absence.
Mr. Bub. Combe and Jack West
were appointed Cub Masiter and
Assistant Cub Master .respectively.
Sain Castle was appointed Scout
Master wibh Clarence Rozell and M.
J. Schoenhals as Assistant Scout
Masters.
M. J. Schoenhals felt that since he
had had the leadership of the Scout
't'roop for the last four Years he
would like to exchange 'places with
one of the Assistant Scout Masters;
so Sam Castle agreed to accept the
appointment of Scout Leadership,
Assistant Guide and Brownie
Leadership presented quite • a prob-
lem and some suggested names were
fired for future refei•enjge, Some
members present .expressed a desire
to attend the meeting in honour of
Sir Percy ' Everitt, Deputy -Commis-
sioner of Imperial Headquarters of
the Boy Scouts Association, London,
England, to be held in London, On-
tario the evening of August 314t,
1939.
The possibilities alf conducting a
St. John's Ambulance Association
Course in Clinton in the Fall were
considered favourable. The First Aid
team of the 10th Brantford Boy
Scout Troop were successful in win-
ning the Leonard Shield in the On-
tario Provincial Junior first-aid com-
petition conducted by St. John's Am-
bulance Association.
Prefers Jail to County
Home
So angry is George Burnett, a
guest at Huron Home for the Aged
at Clinton, against the management
of the institution that he ran away
and chose jail in preference to going
back.
He was remanded to jail one week
when he objected to returning to the
home.
Mr, Burnett is mad because they
took away his pal, Tom Casemate,
to Ontario Hospital, at London.
In Casmore's room was found nine
straight blade razors, three packet
knives, three safety razors and same
matches.
For some summers the two old
cronies, Burnett and Casemore, have
been camping out in a nearby bush
on the banks of the river, returning
to the county home for their meals.
Burnett fought with officers when
they sought to take Casemore away.
Far this be was charged with as-
saulting I. J. Jacobs, assistant man-
ager. He also was charged with
vagraney,.leaving the hone and re-
fusing to return.
The newly organized' Huron County Given his choice of institutions by
Holstein Breeder's Club is most de- Magistrate Makins, Burnett chose
sirous of staging a large Black end the .jail:
White Fair in connection with the
Goderich Industrial Exhibition ` of
Septerber 8th. To this end the Can-
adian Holstein Association is co-
operating by offering $1.00 for each

MOTORING ON COAL GAS
British Members of. Parliament are
shortly to be shown new types of
motor car engines driven by high -
compression coal gas which, it is
claimed, operate as efficiently as
engines driven by either oil or petrol.
Evolved at the National Gas and
Oil Engine "Company's works at
Ashton-under=Lyne, P�Ingland, it is
believed that the new engines may
well revolutionise the fuel aspect of
road transport.
The importance of the development
in the event of war, when supplies
of imported fuel may be precarious,
is realised in Government circles,
where a keen interest in the new
engines is being shown. A scheme
for rationing petrol in war time was
announced reeantly.
Already the United Kingdom Gas
Cvrporatiora is investigating the pos-
sibility of setting, up gas -filling
stations in various parts of the
country, These will refuel gas -driven
•
lorries and gas -driven motor vehicles
from cylinders containing comp'ress'
ed gas or from gas compressors an
precisely the same principle ase that
used in putting air into tyres. The
whoIe operation occupies only ofp
w
seconds.
RIPLEY STAYS "DRY"
A Ioeal option centre
p nfor 30 years,
Ripley decided to continue in the dry
column when a move to permit the
opening of beverage rooms failed at.
the polls, although supported by a
Majority of the voters.
A total of 166 votes favored bev-
erage rooms, with 149 negative -votes
registered However, the "wets" fail-
ed by 23 votes to receive the three-
fifths majority required to change
the status of the town from a locals
option area.
Two subdivisons were open. At
one the vote was 84 to 84, while
at the other 82 persons favored bev
gage, rooms and 65 voted to continue
the present system.
