BOY SCOUT WEEK
By Rev. P. 11, Streeter
Last Monday was the efghtysixth
alwlvereu.ry of the Wilt of Role.:
Stephenson Smyth Baden•Puwell, the
founder of the Boy Scouts organiza-
tion. This week therefore, is being
observed in honour of tho event by
Scouts everywhere. t Wingham, on
Monday evening, a Broadcast was
given over Station CKNX, sponsored
by the Scouts there, We tr,.t;t that
many in this community listened in.
It was at the age of thirteen, that
1'taden-Powell catered the famous
Charter hose School In England, when
he learned many things which Influ-
enced him in establishing the Scouts
In later years. At the age of nineteen
he tried and passed an open examina-
tion for a direct Co[nm'.ssion to tato
Amy and the next September left for
India gazetted as a sublieutenant in
the 13th hussars, Thus began the
remarkas .10 career of a vary remark-
able man.
Ile saw service In India and South
Africa, and travelled In Canada, Aus-
tralia, ,New Zealand, and elsewhere.
This service and experience In these
places gave hint a knowledge of what
la rarr!erstood as "Scouting'.
Upon its ret,n'n to England in 1903
he found that tales about his experi-
ences had reached there before he had
„lo,( :r(i yr, ung people had
been initiating his South African
Scouting tricks. After discussing the
matter with several leading citizens
. .\'illiam Snaith, founder
of the Boys' Brigade, he decided to
work out a programme which would
give young people a training In mak-
ing thcan good citizens In every way or
good Scouts. Under the term 'Scout'
ho holds up for horn womhigl the best
among back -woodsmen, explorers, pi-
oneers and frontiersmen. Ile gave his
Scouts the motto, 'Ile Pepiired', and
the slogan, To a Good Tuni Daily,'
Ile ma' es thou promise, not to hurt,
but to help, and to be loyal to God and
the Kir.g. They have a code of chiv-
alry which includes honour, senile
courtesy, coneage, a selfless
serse of (11.1y, and the guidance of re-
ligion,
It Is the earnest hope of our own
local Boy Scoat's Association that the
.people of this community s• 1pport their
work and oncoura^e our lays to join
this splendid organization, In Blyth
there Is a Scout Troop and a Wolf Cub
Pack. Thr Pack is for boys from 8
to 12 ycram cif age, and the Troop for
those who are 1'.' years of age and
older,

help out the apple industry of
Canada by purchasing and Baling
apples? Where are the good

demand than the Canadian apple.

A few• weeks ago, relates The

cruiser H.M.S. Scylla (Capt. I. A.

that a large (_;ermlul cargo ship

er a 200 -While chase the Scylla
overtook the vessel and fired a
warning salvo ahead of her. In-
stead of stopping, the blockade
runner shifted course, and the
.ruiner then fired directly at her.
Here is the rest of the Admiralty's
report:
"Soon 1'lantcs were Sec11 Coaling

that the erew was abandoning

THE WAR • WEEK --- Commentary on Current Events
Fighting Spirit Of True Canadians
Cannot Be Beaten By Any Enemy
The Independent Majority of the Steelworkers of Steel Co. of
Canada ran the following advertisement in the Ilauniltoii Spectator
on January 23 and paid for it out of their own pockets:
STRIKING IN WARTIME IS A DIRTY
BUSINESS
In fact, over 7;,'1. of the bteelworhers at the Steel Company of Can-
ada regard such action as '!'REASON, and want your help in 8. o; .ing
any s,.ci) occurrence at Dur plant. Every wan on strike from a
Canadian steel plant to -day is killing Canadian soldiers es s..re.y as
if he shot them. This fact mala; the relations between the .,teel-
workers' C.I.O. management, and the Government no lunger a I.rivate
matter, but a public concern,
We think the idea of a steel strike should matte every citizen of Can-
ada as hopping mad as it makes us, flow would you feel if through
determined action of an organized minority you were forced to stop
working in what you knew to be a vital part of our war effort?
--Or if you had worked for your fires for over 26 years, as over 10,%
of us have, and had no grievances you thought were very im;tortant
these days when so many people are suffering so much, and were
suddenly told you were expected to strike on Monday?
—Or i1' you had several children, t► home to pay for, and other
expense( you could just meet, and were suddenly faced with the
possibility of being forced to live for several weeks with no money
coming in.
Don't get 11s wrong. We aren't Union haters, or "Company
Wren," we believe well-run and responsible unions call benefit every
on, We also know that basic wage rates may need to be adjusted
from time to time, and there 1u•e other grievances in this plant as in
most others.
What we object to is the use of strikes over which we have no control
to force decisions in such matters in these time. The Government
has set forth a policy of wage and price control to try 8(1:! avoid
troubles and hardships met in the last War. It also pruvirdOS 0108115
for adjusting inequalities brought to its attention. Public opinion
should demand quick, firm, and just use of this machinery to settle
probleme as they arise, and avoid situations such as the have here.
'1'o allow any group to dictate its own terms in any such dispute
spells disaster for the whole national economy.

LIC. \VITH PROPAGANDA PU'r OUT EXPRESSLY

AND MANAGEMENT.
\V1; WOULD LIKE '1'O EXPRESS ANI) EXPLAIN
T1111 REAL CONVICTIONS OF TIIOSE STEEL-
WORKERS WHO DO '!'WEIR O\VN 'THINKING.
FIRST—A FEW COLD FACTS WHICH CAN BE EASILY
VERIFIED:
1 Union membership never represented more than about 25% of
the 4,900 wage earners at Hamilton Works. Not more than 600
members have attended any one meeting.
2 Only 3(11) members were present at the sheeting in which the strike
vote was held. Three hundred men arc attempting to force more
than 1,000 men to stop work,
8 A large percentage of former C.I.O. members believe in Unions
and joined to assist in correcting grievances the C.1.0, brought
to their attention. '!'hey joined on the understanding that no
strikes would he called in wartime. '!'hese When are now thoroughly
disgusted, are not paying Union dues, and are completely inactive
in Union affairs, but they aro included in estimates of C.I.O.
membership.
4 The strike issue here is Union recognition and collective bargain.
ing, with the pay increase an incidental. Through our Works
Council we already have a collective bargaining agreement through
elected representatives, free of charge. The Union guarantees to
give its the sauce thing for about $50,000 in dues. W'e do not take
our Works Council seriously enough, or snake it work as it should,
because we didn't have to fight for it.
G No discrimination is shown against Union members in the plant,
Union representatives sit on the Works Council.
We feel that this projected strike is part of a planned program
to unionize Canada's steel industry, no matter at what cost to
the country—YOUR country. The C.1.0. is following a familiar
pattern which has been very successful in the States, Strong and
decisive action is needed immediately to prevent further trouble,
and forestall a general inflation. Management's hands are tied,
the Government is unwilling and tunable to act without some over-
whelming expression of public opinion. .
Now is your chance to do something concrete to prevent :1 min-
ority sabotaging our war effort. Write the Government, Express
your opinions in the papers, and make sure any man who supports
a strike in these times realizes what he is doing.
As for us, we take this opportunity to tell the world that we have
no intention of being pushed around. Certainly not by any selfish
group who feel that the present crisis is a golden opportunity to
gain power and raise wages, even at the risk of torpedoing our
whole war effort.
\1'e are paying for this notice out of our own pockets, hoping it
may help to save us the money we would lose if the Steel Com-
pany is shat down by a strike.

Your RED CROSS CALLS TO YOU
Never has the need been so urgent
$i�,000,000 NEEDED Nowt
YOUR REI) CROSS appeals to you for funds to carry on hs program
of mercy; to continue vital war work performed by no other
organization. Never has the need been so urgent.
Helping to keep up the morale of half•a•million fighting men is
a gigantic task, and that is only the beginning. The Red Cross
makes life (lore bearable for thousands of prisoners of war.
Over 2,000,000 parcels were shipped to them last year—more
than this number must go in 1943. Our men in British and
Canadian hospitals need Red Cross comforts and heartening
visits front the staff of Red Cross "visitors".
Red Cross help to shipwrecked sailors is essential, thoughtful,
immediate. Homeless war orphans—our own kin and those of
our allies—sick and starving men and women in many lands—
millions in Russia, Greece and China and other peoples of the
United Nations—need more food, medicine and comforts from
the Red Cross.
The need is worldwide; this year the cost will be greater than ever.
The work mast Fo on. Obey the dictates of your heart; open wide
your purse and be generous. Remember, you are the Red Cross !,

"A model town \you'd pay for

"Wonderful!" enthused Penny.
"Make hirktown a model town':

a real pleasure."
"It's only the beginning," he
told her, "I'm going to make it

is pleasant."
The week that followed was not
illuminating one .for Penny. She
was glad, now, that no publicity
had attended her return from dis•
tint shores. For it little while, at
least, she preferred to remain
unnoticed.
With increasing 1'1011ucney,
Penny observed, the nun who
came to Pietro's huddled together
in serious conversation. She
studied their set faces.
".Midge," she asked one day,
"is something wrong'? Have you
noticed the strained way the men
are acting?"
"Yes, fenny," was the quiet re-
ply. "I've noticed a lot oi' things
in the last few weeks. 'There's
trouble brewing at the still."
"Trouble'." Penny asked, be-
wilderedly,
Before Penny could mike fur-
ther inquiries, Midge hard lost in-
terest in the conversation, Over
Penny's shoulder she e.rinee 1 t

nonchalantly, "What's new at the

"Nothin ' much," !lull asntterod,
"It's always the same."
"Have you been there long?"
Penny asked.
"E'or since 1 got through high

"Do you like working at the

Ilut Penny wasn't listening to
Midge. In her mind a bold plan

Dangers of Gas

Professor J, 13. S. Haldane
states in the scientific weekly
Nature that the danger of n gas
attack 0n 501)10 large British cities
is great enough to warrant more
urgent preparations than have yet
been mule. Ile admits that if gas
bombs were dropped 115 widely and
fitfully as wt'rc high -explosive
bombs in the Autumn of 1!110 the
danger would not be great.
"But," he warns, "it' some hun-
dreds of tons were dropped within
on hour in a restricted arca they
might generate at gas -cloud of a
dangerous density."

Abiding Beauty

Lord hath a Mighty and strong

beauty, which is on the head of

.first ripe fig before the summer;
which when he that looketii upon

The union of two metaphors,
each separately striking, adds
double force to the prophet's
warning', ... The proud crown or
garland of the drunkards, when
the spoiler has torn it from their
brows, and east it on the ground,
will hu trodden under hi: feet.

that they who practise such things

fell from the roof of a barn, in-
juring his ankles, They used their
knowledge of signalling to call
other boys from the nearby
woods, and then while one boy
summoned a doctor, other boys
improvised a stretcher with their
coats and carried the ittjtu'cd boy
to the farm house, where prepay
ations had been made to receive

What is A Home Without Furniture?
Food, Clothing and Shelter are man's most elem-
tary News: But shelter has to be livable --a man's
hon'1e has to have furniture.
Can anyone imagine living in a home totally bare
of a'ly of the little Comforts and touches that make
life worth living? Of course not.
Because in the final analysis a man has to have
something to work for, something that represents
tallf' ibl'� l ruits of his labors.
We are trying to help home front morale by con-
tinuing to provide good reasonably priced furniture.
For furniture gives the home fl'niif \ovkPrs some-
