Eight members of the Kinloss'
Scout Troop were presented with
Queen Scout Awards at the father
and son banquet held at the Holy-
rood Hall on • Saturday night. Af-
ter being stormed .'out ° the • prev
ious week; • the : evening came off
as a decided success. ` The pres
entation ..of eight Queen Scout
Awards at once would 'seem to
be . a record for a'. small rural
organization such as Kinloss, and
no doubt many :..much larger ur-
ban :. Scout organizations , would
.' have: a . hard time to equal such
' an impressive record. The par-
ents,. group committee and par-
ticularly the leaders who haveput
so muchinto the Scouting move-:.
'ment . in Kinloss have just cause
tobe veryproud of "their" . boys.

Our. friend Albie Worrell of The.
Teeswater News made claim last ..
week in his : columns '':that "from
'reports received, Teeswater was
the first'place' in: Western Ontario
td` present a 'clear picture in : re-
gard to snow removal following.
the recent ::. severe storm." ' . The
News: said that 'immediately after
the atmosphere •cleared'. the Tees -
water snow removal crew ; went
at the . banks' of snow .on Friday
night and early Saturday : morn
ing.•
-.Sorry Albie, Teeswater's ef.
forts are : creditable, but ' they
don't , come close to .the village
of Lucknow, which, • we believe,
has a snow removal record that
can'b .
b e. touched > no ' or
y ..village.
even much larger .towns in the
area, .' possibly' in Ontario.
When the Sentinel' writer bat-
tled his way+to work on foot about,
8 a.m. on : Friday,, the second

was . very much 'surprised to find'.
that localsnow

;We respectfully. suggest, 'Albie,
that' Teeswater will have* to get,
