DEAR. MISS DIX: I am. 18 years of age and wish to join the WAVES but my friends are discouraging me. think the service ol- iers a fiiio educational opportunity, and I'd like to take advantage

Many more Groups have worked on "The Plan" but have not sub- mitted their targets and achieve- nients. It is the hope that this Will not be overlooked in the i952 plan- ning.

Plan Achievement is a progres- sive plan culminating in 1953 with the Second Canadian Jamboree. it is not too late to set targets for l952: In the Cub Pack, how about a pow-wow of the Old Wolves? in the Scout Troop, had you thought of your Court of Honour and of course. in both, your Group Com- mltiee?

Queen's Scouts

Imperial Headquarters has noti- fied Canadian Headquarters of the change from King's scout. to Queen's scout. Following is the text. of the letter:

"With the izracioiis approval of Her Majesty The Queen, the King's Scout badge will in future be known as the Queen's Scout badge."

Civil Defense

What is Civil Defense? It is the preparation of oneself for self-pres- ervation in time of disaster.

Bulletin No. 2. "Civil Deiense" published by the Training Depart- ment, The Boy Scouts Association. will soon be in the ,hands of all Leaders. It stresses the need for all Groups to reach a new high in Scout training and then integrate into the general Civil Defense or- ganizaiion. Physical Fitness. Init- iative and Self Reliance, Obedience and Observation should be featur- cd in your programmes.

"Disaster may never strike your community, but when our scouts become men and they have to face an emergency. let us make sure they will BE PREPARED."

"If you never need what you learn in Civil Defense. you losi- nothing, but, if you never learn what you need. you may lose every- thing."

Csmp Planning?

We are planning now for the Summer camping season and hope it will see a. record number of boys enjoying real out of doors Scout- lng.

Our Provincial Camp for Scouts will be held at Camp Buchan, Point Prim from July llth-17th. This camp is for the benefit of Troops whose Leaders are unable to run a Troop Camp of their own.

The operation of s successful camp depends on careful planning. Your plans should be well advanc- ed now and should include: Site, type of cooking. equipment. trans- portation, Leaders. programme. fin-

Akela's Council Rock

This gathering around the Coun- cil Rock is probably finding many of us in a state of apathy - good old spring fever has us in its clutches or is waiting around the nearest corner to ensnsre us. It's A wonderful feeling but good-bye to progress if we don't get I shot. in the arm to perk us up. Even those lively little charges of ours are beginning to get "under the weather" and we are faced with the age old problem of lack of interest even in some of the favorite games.

so let's see what the medicine man can concoct for our symptoms. What gwe need is to realize we're getting somewhere; that we're still putting a few more stories to our house of progress. Now is the time for s bang-up drive on test and badge work. It's interest the boys need right now and it's in work that they are going to find it.

In the meantime. Akels, keep your eye open for the first dry field in your vicinity, that's where we should go next, so the medicine man prescribes.

Star Tests And Body: Work

Star work forms the basis or Pick activity. The Cub must work to have his eyes open, first with one star and then the other. We must avoid dividing the star tests into watertight compartments they all overlap one another and can be constantly revised through games and competitions. some boys are very sensitive. and it is often wise to keep the passing of tests as in- formal as possible. even pusing

some by means of star test games. Above all the boy must understand what he is doing and why he is doing it. Knowledge of the flag is important because we are members of A great Empire and the ling is our symbol of unity and achieve- ment: noficleney in skipping helps us to co-ordinate our body forces for health and sportsmanship and so on through all the star tests.

There should be a steady stream of work on Proficiency .:'.,e.s throughout the year. Progress is slower here and can form an un- dercurrent while star work is being done. In this work the boy takes Cubbing out into his everyday life and into his home, which is one 0! our aims.

Let each Cub have the choice of the badges he wishes to get. A
