AUTO BODY 7,1 Downie Sunoco FEB.19 Boy Scout Week is a special week for a lot of people, For the Cubs and Scouts it means a special Father and Son banquet as well as a chance to thank all those who support the Scouts. For the people of the town, it is a chance to salute the Boy Scout ,organization for its work done throughout the year and also to give a special pat on the back to the leaders who give up much of their time to guide tomorrow's leaders, One of the biggest problems faced by the Boy Scout organization, both here in Wing- ham and in all other centres, is the constant need for leaders. Not an easy job, leader- ship demands qualities that are found only in a few. Patience, understanding, firmness 'and leadership are all qualities which must be present in a Boy Scout leader. On the brighter side, the rewards are great. Corn- pionship, the respect of many youngsters and the personal satisfaction of having achieved something truly important, all come to a leader of youth. Right now, the Wingham Boy Scouts need assistance. We know there are many people in Wingham with the qualifications . . . Would you like to reap the rewards? Boy Scout Week unlike many other "com- mercialized" weeks in the year, represents something truly important. February 22, the high point of the week, is celebrated by Scouts all over the word, marking the birth- day of Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of Scouting. Necessity, it is said, is the mother of in- vention. And so it was with the Boy Scouts, While serving with the British Forces during the Boer War, Baden-Powell was badly out- numbered by the enemy and organized older boys to assist his regular troops. On his return to England he conceived the idea of a peacetime group devoted to the out-of-doors and hence the Scout movement began. In later years, in a message to Scouts all over the world, Baden-Powell said, "I believe that God put us into this jolly world to be happy . . . the real way to happiness is by giving out happiness to other people." Slogan of the Scout movement is "Do a good turn daily." An organization such as this requires a great many leaders. Wingham Scouts need leaders desperately. If at least four are not found in the very near future, the Scouts will be forced to disband. The Cubs and Ventures hope to carry on. Are you willing to help????
