TRAINING OF BOY SCOUTS
THE news that the three local boys concerned in the timely rescue: of the two infants from the Whakatane River! recently, were Boy Scouts, should serve to give this splendid movement one of the finest advertisements in this district, it has ever,had. The Scout training by including a first aid course as is done in Whakatane:, provides members with a handy knowledge of the rescue and respiration of the apparently-drowned. The three lads concerned were thus able to exercise the full benefit of this knowledge which was vital enough on this occasion. The incident, as we have previously remarked but serves to endorse the great work of the movement, from which in the past some of our finest citizens have sprung and ffron> which in the future will rise the great leaders who must figure so prominently in the inevitable processes of the 'new order.'
