Boy Scouts' Hall Appeal
R. M.
LOVELL-SMITH.
(To the' Editor). Sir, — During the next week It is quite on the cards that busy housewives and energetie "businessmen will be interrupted in the course of their duties by small boys — and some not so small — asking them to buy a ticket for the Scout concert. . May I appeal to those who are asked, to say "Yes — thank you." It requires quite a lot of courage for some boys to sell tickets. They don't always enjoy it, and a rebuff is felt very deeply. The Scouts have often been told that they must help themselves if they want to get their own hall, and this is their chance — they are trying to do their best. Will all those to whom Scouts have done a good turn sometime, and all those who may need a good turn sometime, try and buy a ticket for this concert and help the Scouts to help themselves It is a long time since a public appeal was made on bchalf of the Scouts, and there will be no need to make another if everyone does their best, as Cubs and Scouts are* exhorted to do alwavs. — Yours. etn..
Hastings, Aug. 31, 1937.
