The Scouts and Cubs returned home yesterday and were very loud in their thanks to* all who- had contributed to their great happiness. It was fine too, to see so many of the hosts and hostesses on the railway station and to feel the. spirit of comradeship that had been cultivated over the week-end. It. is hoped to hold the Rally at Opotiki next year, but that may not permit if the war continues create a too difficult transport problem."
