Lt should make th in mind and better able withstand the tests."- Do you .get" idea? So many parents aucl teachers feel that for the boye t� get out Scout- ing and hiking will interfere with their studies and examivatitme, but our ex- perience is that the fun,the .out -door d life, is a•very, useful diversaion from. study and grind, and •calculated to create a ^healthy and vigorous mind inore fitted for the tests, than would otherwise be. A Scoutmaster recently talking about the ten Scout Laws, said, "Don't you know there are eleven laws?" Pleading our ignorance be was good enough to enlighten us, stat- ing that the the eleventh Scout Law is "A Scout is not a fool." We agreed and carefully noted this addition: 'A Scout is not a dud or a fool: he known the vaI of his 'lessons ns and•exam` ination's, and does not therefore neglect them. -:He rather links up Scouting as an aid to his "success. The old adage, -after all, still holds --"Ali work and no play (Sun) makes Jack a dull boy." Stili Growing., Letters • asking"'information. how. to atart new Troops • continue to reach Ontario Headquarters. Scouting is contagious. A good, Troop has no idea of the influence it exerts for good, on others. The,. latest developments are a, Troop in the village of. Rocliton, where our "representative met the boys' com- mittee, and omm ttee,'and others,;and ,gave them a ` gentle .push along the pleasant. road of r Scouting. Thew' there is Newmarket, where it was found the boys had been grouped into a club, but were not sat- isfied When- asked what they desired further, they shouted "Scouts." They •-Iraue'no•w ,got their desire and 40 boys have been lined up, while 20 others of Ctrb age are breathlessly waiting for a Pack. We feel this is the beginning g g • of good Scouting here and:in> other places around North York. Who Will Rise Up? One of our leaders writes us' as fol- lows:—"The difficulty in getting,work started is the lack' of leaders for the boys. Practically every youngster is keen to take up 'S•couting, but it is. hard to secure men who will divots time to this important work." What a pity it is that men. can find .time for fishing, motoring, parties, Movies, clubs, all kinds,of pleasures, and yet will overlook this wonderful oppor- tunity of doing something worth while X for our beloved ,00untry,in training its -awfuture citizens. That.leads me to say this—D,an't imagine that you first have " to get .souse experience before handling a Scoutm`aster's position.. That attitude reminds one of the boy who said he was not going lute the" water until he could swim. If you are a `lover of boys, can command their re- spect, are willing to read up, and can, look at things from the 'boy point of view, their is no reason on earth why you should hesitate to get in touch with a group . of waiting boys, organize them, and get .tile- pract1 ai experience that coiaes from contact. You'll'love it. It'll keep you.young. Your public spirit will have a,"chanes to display it- self.

As I was; not im- proving- my :husband took me out and took' me up to my mother's. I doctor- ed there but it did not help me.

March 31st, 1924, totalled' 148,680 as against 72,372 in the previous year, an increase of 104 per cent, Tlie higlizest percentage of increase recorded was 281 in August, 1923, and the lowest 44 per cent. in April, 1923. Of the total movement of the year British immigration accounted for 72,- 919 2; 919 souls against '34,503 In the previ- bus year, an increase of 111 per cent., The movement from all other coun- tries with the exception of the United States resulted in the addition of 5ii, 120 to the population as 'against 16,372 in the previous year,. an increase, of 287; per cent, - There was, however, a decrease of '7 per cent, in the move- ment from the United States, 20,621 moving from that country as compared with 22,007 in the previous year.

Fifty-six Thousand Agriculturists. The largest 'class of immigrants in. the year was bound tor the land, a total of .66,330 persons, made up of 45,029 men 5,608 8 women wo and 5,693 children, having this destination in mind on entry. Another -large class was that of domestic servants made up of 13,875 individuals. Of the total United States immigration nearly 40 per oent. had declared its intention of pursuing agricultural occupations, whilst over 25 ;pier cent. of the British i 'movement was bound in the same di- rection. The outstanding feature of the situation is the large number of coun- tries from which immigrants are mov- ing to the Dominion, and the fine aus- pices under which they are being in- troduced. Having regard to the rapid mannex in• which the situation has re- adjusted itself; it should not be long before immigration figures are back on that trend which the outbreak of the war interrupted.
